Crisis of Life

The threads are slipping by
disillusioning the strands of my life
the known is becoming strange
and mist is what resides

What matters is no more
fuzzy thoughts spinning inside
no clear way ahead
just following etches in stone

The sunlight streams by
and yet darkness remains
Fighting to break out
but no hand to hold in the rain

Its a sad and punishing world
the justice is screwed ten times over
The trust fades in misery
backstabbing in retaliation

Helpless I feel, words don't reach
stuttering in dark waiting to be seen.
Heart weeps, emotions laid bare,
rotting in silence I sleep.

Misunderstood

Its all rotten inside
Anger looking for escape
Its so black, I can't see
Anything, everything that's nice

It feels vile, wicked
And I want to shout
So that everyone can hear
The story of my side
But I find no one looking
Waiting for my answer
Everything seems so faded
Like I was alone for ever

Then the fear starts to rise
Unguarded, unwanted, unstoppable
I feel I have hit wall
And bleeding hate from inside

The anger subsides after a while
But the uneasiness that remains
When I looked up
No one was waiting, no one cared

Children of Dust

I look above in sky,
See stars twinkle
Some call it hope
I dont know why

I follow the path
That holds no meaning
Not anymore at least,
When all the bonds have broken

It was not always so
Once there was life, maybe also love
But then came clouds black
Drenching everything with strife

Since then fate never looked back
We, children of dust,
Left to discover the earth
Underneath the twinkling sky

Gift of God

When everything's behind the veil
And nothing's clear
In the frame of mind
Think of God
And he will show
What you are missing

When there is despair
And the milestone
Far, far away
Think of God
And he will make you
Travel the distance

When you feel betrayed
And no one
You can trust
Think of God
And he will help
You see beyond

When you feel his presence
Alter your life
In a million ways
Its then you will admire
What all he has given you
And what little asked in return
