If Death

If death tangles its claws in the dead of night and my redemption should arrive|

I greet it with open arms|

Grant me one last hug|

Squeeze the life out of our last waltz|

Hold my hands for I do not know the way-|

Guide my steps through the star-less night|

Memories fade away when eyes hold no fray|

Standing together on an endless path|

Dancing to our song|

One last rendition before we lose each other to the notes strum|

Singing a farewell to the ones we held strong|

Inside Your Hands

Parables fumble in unprepared hands| Deprived of gifts bestowed to thee| As humans we seek shelter beneath a tree| When our feet become weak| And our needs extend beyond our means| As rain pours| It cleanses our soul| Dormant ideas start to grow| Yet we turn a blind eye| To what's before our sight| Taking the easy way| Shunning plights| Fighting is not a physical ordeal| It's more of a rejection to extol the almighty rule| Exploring alternatives to fables disguised as facts| Letters shredded in half| Eulogies embedded on a golden calf| The story was written for you to digest| The ending inside your hands| Inside your thoughts is the rest|

Spoken Word

A word once spoke is only heard through an opening in a cracked wall| Shrunk in the balance| Within strings moving from the wind's hold| Escaping push| Reinforced from strength of vibrations from a secluded silence|
