Paint your pretty pictures in the sparks Design your shallow dreams in seven days, Toast your tributes spiked upon your words But promise that you’ll keep me from the flames. The jack of Christ smiles flushed within my hand A cardboard knave to box my meagre sins; To bear the burden seeded in my mind And chain me naked to the razor winds. Nail me heathen crosswise to the stars Through wrist and foot with steely eyes, Rake me with a curse of bell and book But keep me from the flames behind your lies. |

Funny, I was searching for some words to match my mood...usually good self help.  There is great power in your thoughts. A healthy venting of the crystalized side of tears. Good reading you...and thanks. TD |

This song's for You, dear Fallen One, to grasp on your way down For though you've fallen from her grace, you soon will feel the ground And though your seed be buried deep within the cold dark mound You'l know that She is with you, although there be no sound Though Songs of Hope, or Faith and Joy, by you will not be heard She'l hear your voice still ringing , she'l remember every word Your sorrow she will treasure, your death she will not mourn Your shell contains the gift of life, still waiting to be born The Promise will be waiting, it's She who'l keep you warm Alive within her bosom, for you're the Chosen One And there you'l lay, until some May when your turn next will come The earth will quake when you awake and rise up to the Sun Your sorrow she will treasure, your death she will not mourn, Your shell contains the gift of life, still waiting to be born Until that day, another May, your Soul will Rise again. The blackened earth that you have made, from where your soul hath lain Will feed your body, give you life and fill and nourish you She'l make new Worlds , new Stars above, beginning life anew! with thanks from littledavid |
