AWAKEN

Awaken this soul of mine
Open up your weary eyes,
Turn away from deceivers
And look up to the Southern Skies.
Awaken your heart this one day
Let it beat both fast and true,
For when both are clear and open
The future will become fresh and new. 

There is only fear within fear
Rewards from what we seek,
No treasure from our betrayal
Only truth in which we speak.
Awaken this my tired soul
Open up these tired weary eyes,
For the truth is before you now
As sure as the Northern Skies.

Ascent

The descent into the darkness has ended
Allowing the sun to finally rise,
A burden taken from my shoulders
So I may ascend to claim my prize.
My chains have now been broken
My spirit is now finally free,
For my ascent is that of my destiny
And the ending I really want to see. 

Destiny is but the future unmade
A place in history we will one day touch,
For beauty alone can exist without life
Yet life without beauty not as much.
The far away plains call out my name
A whisper that echoes on the wind,
Something old and something new
But nothing for those who have sinned.

So I raise a glass and drink a toast
For the curse has been taken away,
My rising smile becomes my beacon
The only one true and final way.

ANGEL, BUTTERFLY, ROSE & QUEEN

Memories of you are fading
Like the age old painted picture face,
My time upon this ride is over
As my soul nears the end of the race.
The winds of change are upon us
As are those beautiful setting suns,
My soul is damaged in so many ways
Waiting to meet the broken one’s. 

I reach out in my dreams to hold you
If you are close then I am near,
Together we are the Sun and the Moon
My strength is your voice that I hear.
Angel, Butterfly, Rose and Queen
All these things you are to me,
So in real time and dreamtime both
It will be you, my love, who sets me free.

A Poet’s Last Rhyme

This hollow body has become weary
The light is fading from my once strong heart,
Days are longer now that I’ve felt the pain
In a way my soul has been ripped apart.
I think of this day like it was to be my last
The night-time song as it will be no more,
My thoughts of family and friends run deep
As though they to me can rebuild and restore. 

Maybe not today, nor tomorrow I wither
But one day soon I believe I will go,
Leaving behind some things so precious
Of passion, loyalty and love nobody will know.
Above all in this whole world today
My legacy will carry on through time,
For my life fulfilled as within a dream
This is the last of this poets rhyme.

Battle

Look into this day with all your faith
For extra measure use that of your soul,
Because unto the night which does come
The battle will begin for total control.
From this time to that time that has passed
The journey will take you to the end,
For within this place covered by night
A message to the future you will send. 

Look into the night with all your hope
And a little touch of deep loving care,
For tomorrow will bring something new
Or whatever is the easiest to bare.
Time will be the judge for our mortal kind
As eternity will see us through another day,
Until this moment when we shall see
In heaven, or on Earth, here we shall play.

Battle For Tomorrow

And the world turned to say
This time is not that for you,
This day is far beyond your reach
And this hour is nothing so new.
Time has been spent, you are alone
In this world you are but a soldier,
But remember your place in this life
There is no place anywhere so cold. 

When you take up your arms this day
Do it in a name that you truly believe,
For tomorrow the battle will begin
And no forgiveness will ever relieve.
Remember the love you once had
The desire and passion you once sought,
But for life of a reassuring heart to hold
It was an eternity in hell that you have bought.

Beyond The Barrier

I look beyond the barrier of pain
Into the face of death itself,
For if I look straight into its eyes
The better it will be for my health.
Many a night I’ve sat up to wait
Twiddling my thumbs in time,
It’s presence before me I sense
Passing judgement on my crime.
Of time and space I build my hopes
Though all is lost in a collapsing star,
Where once life enriched the earth
Our loss shall be marked by a scar.
Of this world which I now choose
Let my crimes and sin’s be cast,
Allow this day my daily bread
And leave events of the past in the past.

Bringer Of Light

They are the one’s that bring the light
That mighty starlight, star bright,
The one’s that force away the darkness
Bringing the day time from the night.
They are the protector’s of our dawn
The guardian’s who bring the day,
For their protection is our great need
So our children can find their way.
The darkness we see as evil
The light we must always fuel,
For if the darkness defeats the day
Then evil will forever rule.
Human life will bow to menace
Our eyes blinded by the slightest spark,
Each soul in turn will wither and die
Because light was defeated by the dark.

So together we stand against this foe
Strength in numbers unlike before,
When darkness tried hard to take us
But for that beacon of light secure.
And with a glass raised high I smile
For the keepers of the light I know,
Life is for those with untainted hearts
And soul’s as pure as the white driven snow.
