no pity on display
the inner child now
lives inside black emptiness
well of forgiveness dried up one day
and love, this too died along the way
loss of feelings
are a mere sacrifice
the truth no longer a reality
the heart knows not how to play
you see, hate has taken it all away
the crack in the mirror
holds the forgotten truth
a remnant of deep unseen scars
revealed in a vain of silvery gray
cutting sharply, into your sight each day

Torn Away
Life was taken,
childen her life
sadness was given in its place.
Fight to the end,
she will never give up
these children are hers
and no one can disclaim.
A close up photo, and no Mom,
but there she stands in a photo far away.
Memories are made without her present today.
The distance has left her love unfelt,
her children were not ment to feel this pain.
Where did it all go wrong
and why, is this women to blame?

Beginnings
In the beginning...
Dreams are made with unseen sight,
darkness is filled with the source of life...
Only one breath away,
and new beginnings await...
A lifetime for you to run in the race,
where each of us timed at a different pace...
Dreams now made with the source of life,
and darkness is filled with unseen sight...
Sadly one day we will reach the end,
but till then,
life is always one breath away;
where new beginnings await again...
