The Natural Man
It truly is a bitter life
When lived like the life of the
Natural man.
Of worldly pleasures one seeks all,
Bringing great sorrow to the soul.
Fleeting moments of small pleasure,
Tainted with unhappiness
Sorrow and guilt.
A greater life, would be of triumph,
Over that man of the world,
As a saint of peace, the bringer
Of true happiness.

My Wonderland
There's no white rabbit.
Only a hole in which to fall.
A magical, wonderful, fantastical world
Filled with my imagination.
Of creatures and places naught.
The sky is a purple haze, and the sun a blinding blue.
A world where anything can happen.
Summer blizzards, and sweltering winters.
But now all is fading...
And it is time to wake up...
With a sore head and a problem,
How do I get out of this hole?

Dark Madness
Slowly... Slowly...
Sinking into the dark
Depths of my maddening
Mind...
Shadows of insane
Thoughts,
Blocking all
Light of sanity...
Just sinking...
Slowly... Slowly...
Into my own
Dark Madness

You and I
You and I are opposites.
We are yen... and yang...
Fire and ice...
Black and white...
Light and dark...
We are the Earth and sky.
We oppose each other,
Yet you can't have one without the other...
While we clash we harmonize.
While at war, we have peace...
While we are at conflict, we are together...
You and I
