Master Key

Filed under Poetry by on 2010.06.30 at 11:59 pm {2 comments}

Carefree spirits bottled up inside

Trapped by emotions that tame

Hearts led around on a leash by its captor

Confused by the rules of the game

A forfeit of control for each fantasy ride

Obscuring the thief in the night

Mindful of the figure in the shadows

Intoxicated by the beacon of light

Consumed by the torture absence creates

A child-like adoration abounds

Hidden wonders desperate to explore

Each destructive hold astounds

The mystery and grace of nature move them

Token resistance to the iniquity

A wolf cries boy in a repetitive chord

Unleashing the clarity of their destiny

The Precipice

Filed under Poetry by on 2009.05.06 at 7:41 pm {no comments}

The precipice – to fall or launch?
A direction we must choose
Trembling legs upon which we stand
Have faith or we shall lose

Uncertain; fearing movement
Unmoving; along the edge
Paralyzed by gripping fear
Make known a soulful pledge

Let go of false perceptions
The life-line in our grasp
Illusions of a silken thread
Interwoven through the past

A skewed sense of security
Wrapped by chords that bind
Escape the failing process
Wings folded at our side

Feel the updraft of the swirling wind
Surrounded by His grace
On the edge; a child of God
Forever noticed in this space

Outreached hands are all around
Unseen by covered eyes
Time is the enemy we must fear
For He shall hear our cries

Place not our faith in silken threads
Nor hold fast in fear of fall
Open up our eyes and palms
To receive him after all

Let go and Let God

Angel In Disguise

Filed under Poetry by on 2009.05.04 at 4:52 pm {4 comments}

An angel appeared before him
A figure bathed in light
Golden curls adorned her head
Eyes shining clear and bright

She was a welcome interruption
His life desperate for repair
A gift from God he knew at once
To lead him from despair

Her soul an endless repository
Full of love for the broken boy
His sense of self awakened
Overflowing with sudden joy

Before long her image haunted him
From the darkness a demon lurked
Perception no longer reliable
Convoluted delusions at work

Golden curls slithered and hissed
Eyes shifted from blue to red
The bright light that surrounded her
Transformed to flames instead

To survive he must destroy her
A battle he must not lose
Bury the angel In disguise
Or risk the right to choose

The first blow met with silent pleas
Blood dripping from his hand
He raised his sword and burrowed deep
Convinced of God’s command

A flutter of wings broke the silence
A slight breeze against his skin
To his dismay his opponent rose
And returned to her origin

His transgression fully realized
Noiseless tears began to fall
Mindful of his broken dreams
She was an angel after all
