I am drawn to the eyes of the all Mighty
Those pale blue exuberant eyes, getting lost
In every stroke I take in the deep vast ocean they create
Every notion ever felt, ever taken action on, crashes down before me
The walls and barriers that have been built, fall down around me
They sink in the waves of his gaze

The bright white light of his palace, so inviting and homely,
Beauty, grace, and youth overcome me, all things new are
There to reassure, this is the place I want to be.

One step, and the marble cracks, creating a fissure in
The hope I always saw to be there, another step
And I begin to fall, like a comet crashing down to earth.
Past the crust and deep down through the layers, into the hellfire.

I am greeted by shackles binding me to the ground,
Immense heat radiating off of my body, no escape.
No way to flee the constant torture of the claws,
Dragging me deeper into the heat of the flames.

Happy was I.
Joyful, loving, heart
Shattered is it now.
You with
anger and rage
Fills up this saddened heart
broken am I.

I am broken.
Heart saddened this up fills
Rage and anger.
With you,
Now it is shattered.
Heart loving, joyful.
I was happy

Have you ever felt so great, you could fly?
Have you ever felt so sad, you could die?
But be brave, be bold like a king on his throne
You could start a new day, don’t be scared to be okay
Ba bum ba bum ba bum
Your heart beats like a drum
Like a child opening its eyes for the first time
You see and hear the light
King David praying in the night
Ba bum ba bum ba bum
The sword shocked sin
No more hate
The mountains thundered their chorus
They boomed their great truth
A million beats in one
Ba bum Ba bum Ba bum
The light from this Sun is weighty
Even the richest people can’t buy this
Sweat and tears won’t earn it
It’s a gift
It’s a wonder at your fingertips.

The street lights in the night
Shine like a star
The stars are sailing in the
Dark, dark Ocean
In middle of the Ocean
There is a floating small boat

In the boat
There is someone
That no one hate
But no one like
So he keep hide in the boat

The boat sail
Sail by the waves
Move towards to the bright star
Which it will never reach
The closer to her
The more he will hide in to shadow

Some dinosaurs can make a terrifying roar. Some others can fly and soar.
But this dino, oh he can run.
Yes, this dino, he’s number one.
This my friends is Flashasaurus Rex.
This T-Rex really likes to flex.
Hey, I know, let’s give him a nickname.
This nickname must not sound lame.
I know, let’s call him Flashy and start the game.
It’s time for the monthly dinosaur race.
Hey Flashy, remember to tie your shoelace.
Yes, it’s finally time to run.
And now I can finally have some fun.
Yes, the race finally starts.
When I get home, I’ll eat some meat flavored poptarts.
Wait, hold up. I’ve lost count of how many people I’ve passed.
Oh no wonder, I’ve already won cause I guess I was just too fast.
Hey Flashy, may I test your skill?
How many times can you run around that large hill?
Ok, how much time will you give me?
Hmmm, thirty seconds then we will see.
Phoom, ahh a tornado, you’re going too faaast!
Why am I floating around and will I last?
Frrrr, it’s so cold in this place.
Oh my gosh, is this space?!
Bloop, Flashy boy you ran so fast you set the earth off it’s course.
I looked into the sky and now I just feel remorse.
Now a huge asteroid is headed or way!
I just wish I wouldn’t die and I’d be here to stay.
It’s all your fault and now we’re all gonna die. Those Pterodactyls are so lucky, they can fly.
Phoom.
Zoom.
I never knew I could run around half the earth in the count of five.
Well, that stinks that everyone is dead, but at least I’m alive!

Breathe in the last breath
Breathe out the last sigh
After the last tear drop touch the ground

There will be my funeral
To someone it is social party
To someone it is blind date
To someone it is duty
To someone it is just funeral

If a person who despise me
Come to my funeral
Please, don’t cry for me
Please, smile for me
Smile for me with regret

So my feelings of all the suffering
I been through
Could reach to the sky
So I could be a star in the night sky
Made of miserable pieces of heart

There is no mirror to shine my feelings
So I cross my arm with knife
There is only dried black blood

The times passes
Only hole of twilight watching me
I know
I’m just missing you
I know
After time passes your face will
Break down fall down and disappear
I know
I shouldn’t miss you

I know

I don’t think It’s good to see you
It would be better if I didn’t see you

When you were look so happy
I was in the night
I was in dark, dark night

When the sun is bright
When the sunshine greet you
Only the shadow of my conscience in the night sky greet me

Oh the shadow, please give me regards
To pour out my tears
To pour out my anxiety
To pour out my misfortune
If I pour out everything, maybe I can see her tears
Even if it’s going to see her last

There are some things they never tell you
Like the true dangers
That’s true. They might tell you some dangers
But they only tell you the predictable ones
Even though they seem unpredictable
They are.
The ones they don’t tell you are the truly unpredictable ones
Yet they can predict those ones too
They just can’t tell you
They tell you the dangers you want to hear
Not the ones you need to hear
It’s like telling a baby bird they could die flying
Then they’ll never try
They will tell you the dangers you are prepared for
Not the dangers that will keep you at home
They say the dangers you are safe from
Even if you seem unsafe
Now off you go
But remember
There are some dangers we can’t warn you about

Everyone sees me as a wall
One with graffiti and paint, scratched into, colored over
Bricks fallen out and new ones put in
Already done, a few spots here and there but mostly full
Still growing for more
but today still full
Full of color vibrant and dull
Full of experiences, achievements, failures
History that will never be lost
Stuck there forever
But that’s not me
I am a blank wall
No graffiti, no paint
Not scratched into or colored over
Not full of color and experiences, achievements, and failures
No history engraved into me
Just a blank wall
A new slate
Nothing crazy
Just a blank wall
