Resilience

Don’t Despise

Oh God, My Beauty!

Cold Is Agony’s Cage

In The Valley Without Vision



Ruthless Pride

Fruits Evil Hands Did Sow

Defining True Beauty

I Throw My Words Toward Tomorrow

The Hands Of Time Are All Of Our To Bear

Let The Passion Flow

Silence

There Is Beauty In The Ground

Condition Of Thee

All The Flowers You Plant Tomorrow

We Are Such Small People

Looking Back

Nefarious Love 2

Dark Skies

Loneliness Walks The Stranger’s Road

The Apology

Nefarious Love

Street Struggle 101 (If You Play The Game)

I See You Mercy

Reverse The Curse They Tried To Ascribe To You

Our Father

Beautiful Flower

Man Can Only Do So Much

The Silent Sufferer

Humble Happiness And Pity Pain

Pen Me My Honesty

If You Tear The Passion From My Soul

Poor Man's Prayer

I sometimes see the homeless and just feel so bad because they are push here and there with no certain place to call home. So this poem represents the homeless desperate prayer to God because he is tired of pleading with the people in the world.


O Lord!
Thou! in the sky
I pleaded with earth
but they won't hear my cry
O my soul longs to be free
from all the ugly words
by which people torture me
Ooh they make me cry out so loud
O Lord,
how can I dance
under these dark clouds?
For this poor man do cry,
for my spirit roams.
Is there any room in the sky
to rest these tired bones?
from walking to and fro
because I have no place to go
O Lord,
I am poor
