I want someone different
The different isn’t available
So I must choose
Settle for what I
Don’t want or remain
Alone gambling on destiny
I want someone different
The different isn’t available
So I must choose
Settle for what I
Don’t want or remain
Alone gambling on destiny
Change is coming I
Can feel it everything
Can yes even us
Things have cooled going
From hot to chilling
Soon the edges will
Entertain ice and will
Creep over everything this
Is how everything goes
At first shiveringly thin
Eventually barren and lost
Drawing lines in sand
Creating boundaries protecting same
Doesn’t make me mean
It makes me stronger
I have learned this
At my own expense
And another’s wealth while
Leaving hearts pockets empty
It shall be this
And not like that
Strength is one thing
And power is another
Power is taken or
Assigned it is corrupt
It demeans and disgusts
But strength burns in
The hearts of righteousness
It is the flame
That attracts and drives
It will overcome power
Strength is the hope
Taking back what’s stolen
There comes a time
In every man’s life
When growing from sapling
To tree from trying
To doing and from
Student to teacher only
He knows when it’s
Time to push out
To bud then shade
And eventually fall only
To start over again
Until he becomes something
Else a door floor
Or even a memory
