Without a vision ,
there is no drive.
Without drive no direction.
Without direction a drifting through,
a windblown inattention,
Driven by the chaos of circumstances
the push of social will.

The trees grow high,
Nearly touching the sky.
Tons, their bodies weigh
And be just gods they may.
They look upon us from their height,
Doing nothing for us in spite.
They see us cutting down their friend,
Waiting until we come to an end.

I can't reach you.
I enjoy the beauty of the sky
when it is tinged with red glow.
I am mesmerised to see the moon
when it is peeping behind the trees.
I gaze and gaze to the dew drops
which are glittering like dimonds on leaves.

How a father heals
Is not by means of force
How a father heals
Is by means of voice
How a father heals
Is through explanation and love
How a father heals
Is tough, rough, but more than above
Above all else,
Above all the crying

Each day I commit to a productive day,
Wasting away in prayer I don't say,
To continue making a living with less toxic ways,
Only to find myself in the cusp of being homeless anyways,
Derived from perseverance and quality of character,

No Such Thing
There’s no such thing as an old soul
Inside a foolish one who claims
No sympathy for lost souls
And says they see the face of God
For if the greatest love
In all the universe exists
How do you ignore someone
With no... – by Charles Edward York | added by charlesedwardyork

I was shaking, shivering, in a cold bliss,
And I was wondering, expecting, hoping for warmth amiss,
I walked and walked and walked some more,
Only to lay down near a joule box for a snore,
A few hours for days still an early rise,
To return to... – by O. Santos | added by Tuxedo_Mask

We All Know Its Jest A Rock (Bussokusekika)
At times I wonder
If my signet has been scanned
By all SEM methods
Down to the nanometer
And even using 3D
Ye all know its jest a rock

In this warped world, you've reduced me to "cis",
A snide designation, like I'm just a miss.
I've humored your labels, adjusted my speech,
But you're erasing my essence, pushing me out of reach.
Every "they", "them", or "ze", I've echoed back... – by Arie Castle | added by ArieCastle

Gators, coons, egrets.

TELL YOUR STORY
Let me tell you a story
Of how it used to be
Come give God the Glory
With the man I used to be
I was born in a world of sin
Till I let God's Grace come in
We all have a tale to tell
Of who we used to be
Back on that... – by Barry Green Jr | added by crucifiedinhim2
