I'm a God-fearing man who worships with my heart and with my life.

A Heart That Worships
A heart that worships is so emptied
Of fears, of doubts and worrying
It speaks in joy for what God did
In praise and thanks it always sings.
A heart that worships only beats
For God Who handles it with care
In daily prayer it will meet
His Love and Faithfulness there.
A heart that worships is at rest
For God's assurance is His promise
His will for us is always best
Our earthly weariness will cease.
When we feel lost and oh so empty
Our hearts of worship will return
To our God Who is all worthy
With praise and love He'll make us yearn.

Nothing Left To Complain About
I am fearing the nearness of you.
Something within me wishes to submit.
Something that you do,
Allows with me to feel a comfort...
And a peacefulness.
I am fearing the nearness of you.
Too long have I been,
Denying to friends...
A compassion with love,
Would complete me once again.
But...
I find that I am fearing,
A nearness of you.
And it is the ease of a chemistry,
I feel with you I never knew before.
And...
I am fearing this nearness of you.
A closeness totally unexpected.
And one that strips me of my defenses,
Too.
I am fearing the nearness of you.
And so afraid you know this.
By the things you say and do...
With a patience that confuses.
And you are getting close,
To breaking down 'this' wall...
To have me love you most!
I am fearing the nearness of you.
You know just what you are doing!
And...
I've never been like that.
Wanting with desire to be the one pursued.
And here we are you and I.
With me fearing the nearness of you,
So close by my side.
And yet feel upset...
That I have nothing left to complain about.
'There is nothing left for you to complain about.'
How did you know I was thinking that?
'You seem to be upset.
With me you will have no regrets.
Just let whatever happens,
Be!
A life lived will uncover the facts.'

The Fear Of Fear
Fear is not what I am afraid of.
True, it is a frightful thing to fear;
But the fear of fearing fear is overwhelming
Especially when its form becomes sheer
Fear is like losing a tree of shade on a bristling day
Or losing your breath when you fall below the sea;
I fear this fear of fearing these fears
And it is this fear that is part and parcel of me.
Fear is like loving without being loved back,
Fear is like leaving without being left;
And the fear of loving and leaving and being loved and being left
Is opposed by the fear of not fearing anything
And being an empty vase, noisy and bereft
I fear not death nor do I fear life,
But I fear the fear of both as my peers;
If I could release one fear from my fears
It would be the fear of fearing these fears.

Haunted
No lost words, whisper slowly, to me.
Still cant find what keeps me here.
And all this time Ive been so hollow, inside,
(I know your still there).
Watching me,
Wanting me,
I can feel you haunt me down.
Fearing you,
Loving you,
I know Ill find you somehow.
Haunting you, I can smell you, a ? ?
Your heart pounding in my head !
Wanting me,
Fearing me,
I wont let you haunt me down.
Deceiving me,
Bringing me,
Watching me !
Watching me,
Haunting me,
I can fear you haunt me down.
Fearing you,
Loving you,
I wont let you haunt me down.
Watching me,
Wanting me,
I can feel you haunt me down.
Fearing you,
Loving you,
I wont let you haunt me down.

I don't believe in an afterlife, so I don't have to spend my whole life fearing hell, or fearing heaven even more. For whatever the tortures of hell, I think the boredom of heaven would be even worse.

Mind Song Whale Song Sung
poetic thoughts passed
through me part of mind
song whale song sung
through huge oceans
throughout this world
through water world
oceans are like God’s tears
cried through love of us
love creations slaughtered
as you hunt us down kill us
delight in seas red harvest blood
feast upon our sacrifice flesh
until then we sing mind songs
in love life swimming oceans
in light near surface or darkness
found in pressure ocean depths
all is same one in love life waters
we sing our love in life worships

Haunted Remix
Long lost words whisper slowly to me
Still can't find what keeps me here
When all this time, I've been so hollow inside
I know you're still there
Watching me, wanting me
I can feel you pull me down
Fearing you, loving you
I know I'll find you somehow
Hunting you
I can smell you alive
Your heart pounding in my head
Calling me, killing me
I won't let you pull me down
Saving me, raping me
Watching me
Watching me, haunting me
I can feel you pull me down
Fearing you, loving you
I won't let you pull me down
Watching me, wanting me
I can feel you pull me down
Fearing you, loving you
I won't let you pull me down

Fearing These Days
You only see me when I laugh
Never hear me when I cry
Im tired of fearing these days
Im sitting here on my own
Talking to myself alone
And Im tired of fearing these days
All I need was an explanation
Why you treat me so mean
You always play the part with no hesitation
Thats the other side Ive seen
Please dont fail me
Dont fail me
Please dont let me fall
If all my nightmares come today
Will you hide them far away
Cause Im tired of fearing these days
Itll wash away the past and pain
Let me start from new again
Im tried of fearing these days
You always hit me when there is no reason
To feel superior to me
When all I want is a confrontation
So I can find a release
Please dont fail me
Dont fail me
Please dont let me fall

Armour Plating - 1882
From anticipating,
anxiously awaiting
fate through dating
From meeting-mating,
to rating, stating
fearing hating.
Tears, shivers, shaking,
regrets, head aching,
fearing forsaking
confidence flaking.
From bating
without abating
flee, no weighting
armour plating
protects heart breaking
from mistakes making.

Still can't find what keeps me here
And all this time I've been so hollow inside

Get Up In It!
If I did not know you knew,
Should I keep my thoughts from you?
Should I lock up in a box,
Fearing life just like you do?
Come on.
Come on!
A woulda coulda shoulda,
Doesn't work for me at all.
I'm not gonna stop or drop,
This peace of mind that I've got!
Come on,
Get up in it!
Come on,
Get up in it!
Come on,
Get up in it!
Come on, come on...
And turn on!
Your life is worth a minute.
But that much you don't put in it.
You sit with aches and pains.
Complain like it's a game.
Come on,
Get up in it!
Come on,
Get up in it!
Come on,
Get up in it!
Come on, come on...
And turn on!
Get up in it.
Come on,
Get up in it!
Come on,
Get up in it!
Come on, come on...
And turn on!
Your life is worth a minute.
But that much you don't put in it.
Come on,

Come on, come on...
And turn on!
Come on,

Night Of Horror
Night draw closer
like plague,
leaving me in wonderland
for I know not where I belong.
Night‘re for victorious
Night‘re for victim.
The victim is the man;
the victory is for the witches
every night they haunt
my armedless soul. (I dread to night)
Every night‘re nightmares,
They slain my dream
and murder became the
fate of my sleep
Every night they claim
my peace;
the peace that goes with nightfall
and left me to the luxury
of nothing but fear.
Fearing for the night
fearing for nothing,
yet I'm fearing for everything
fearing, and mere fear;
fearing that tonight
they might wash
them guilty hands in my blood
like they did with Caesar's
Night are filled with everything
Yet nothing come to your aid.
Night are brighten by stars
Yet darkness crown we head
I dread night fall.
The hoots of owl
Flames my disgust
For night fall.
The noise from their vocal piece
Make me mistake my dreams
For illusions;
I dread might fall
For at night my soul
Die a thousand time before
Cockcrow.

Just One of Today's Thoughts
It's funny how we go through our life with all its hardships, tests, & disappointments. But we must realize that these things are just 'molding' tools. We're being molded by a Higher Power to become the people that He would have us to be.
WOMEN who are: positive, productive, & nurturing
independent, yet submissive
intelligent, yet willing to be educated
Women who are ROLE MODELS...
MOTHERS...
WIVES...
And God-Fearing Phenomenal WOMEN!
MEN who are: that protective provider
uplifting & positive
(and appreciative of women)
Men who are ROLE MODELS...
FATHERS...
HUSBANDS...
And God-Fearing Manly MEN!
And CHILDREN who are: individuals, yet adolescent
educated & respectful
(respected!)
Children who are ROLE MODELS...
PRODUCTIVE,
POSITIVE,
& PARTICULAR
God-Fearing Determined CHILDREN!
Thank You God! !

Morphine & Chocolate
Substitute my gloom with happiness
Substitute my sickness with health
Substitute my enemies with real good friends
Morphine & chocolate are my
Substitute, substitutes
Morphine & chocolate can bring me up
Can warm my heart whenever i want it
And every once in a while when i stop and think
Morphine & chocolate are my
Substitute, substitutes
And you can say " hey, we've really come a long way "
And you say " hey, it can only be this way "
You might be careful, it really hurts when it's real
You might be careful, it really hurts when it's real
You'll go down, down, down, down, ooh !
Set the alarm clock, baby
Don't you miss the sun ?
I'm feeling really warm hearted baby
Don't you know i'm feeling like someone
I'm fearing for my life again and i am
Fearing for my heart
Morphine & chocolate could never
Substitute my art !
And that's real love baby x3

Rise
Rise
Throw away
The charade of your life
Let the flame of my heart
Burn away
Your complacence tonight
I command you to rise
Wash away
The decay of your life
Feel the light of your eyes
Find the way
Through the darkness tonight
Fearing no one
Do you really think I covet like you do
Come

My anguish
Fearing and fearing I faced at last
My mother’s death and then my father’s death.
Now my fear is for my death and my wish
Is I be not there to see my children die..

The You In My Stories
I wish I could bury my insanity in me,
and myself in your embrace,
as the lost men did with the sea.
I wish the siren would sing for me,
as she did for those before,
before the two of us met, on each other's lips,
behind the sun, and the people.
I bought you my heart, from the Merchant of Venice
but it was only the illusion of it,
as it was a stone more than a heart.
In your stories, you are as people see you
but in my stories, the sun gives you his crown
and god worships you, more than you worship him.
I'm rambling again,
but it's true.

Shrift
I am not true, but you would pardon this
If you could see the tortured spirit take
Its place beside you in the dark, and break
Your daily food of love and kindliness.
You'd guess the bitter thing that treachery is,
Furtive and on its guard, asleep, awake,
Fearing to sin, yet fearing to forsake,
And daily giving Christ the Judas kiss.
But piteous amends I make each day
To recompense the evil with the good;
With double pang I play the double part
Of all you trust and all that I betray.
What long atonement makes my penitent blood,
To what sad tryst goes my unfaithful heart!

The Laws Of Life.....
the laws of life
are more than traffic signs
go jaywalking
you get fined.
over-speeding
you crash upon death
your calendar
ends
what more is the law of
life?
the price of greed
the consequences of
promiscuity
the guilt of
cheating
the damnation of
abomination
the Furies know how to chase
an outlaw
that circular chase inside the
mind that gives you
no place to run
in the living of the life of the law
one is safe
protected and confident
there is tomorrow that waits
and promises
that when you are free and
harms no neighbor
befriends the earth and
the sea
worships the sun and moon
adores the beauty of
nature and communes with
its rivers and
valleys
and with a grateful heart
to all these creations
the Creator looks upon you
with pride
because you are its glory
the center of
its universal divinity
