Darkness in Life

Darkness consumes you

Your world is bright

Never broken in life

Though life is breaking you

Piece by piece

Falling apart

The only thing remaining is your heart

Don't let it knock you down

When you're already standing strong

Push past the smoke

Let the light shine through

Darkness is not a part of you

It is taking you away

Run

Run through it all

Don't let it make you fall

The Wolf That Watches

Stuck in the middle

Forever

My life is a dedication

a dedication...a promise

That I will take care of others before thyself

No God, No Faith

But a simple promise

To protect those dear

Sometimes I fail

I watch them hurt

And in that hurt I am cut

Cut so deep that it touches my soul

A soul that is a savage animal

A wolf

Dark but light

A wolf watches over me

I have that spirit inside me now

Now I am the wolf that watches

To forever endure other's pain

To carry the scars

But to never show them

Forever and Always I will watch

Stop it if I can

It's a harder life

But its my life

Reality

As humans we are bound to one world

One reality

One conscious mind

But what if there are multiple realities?

Multiple forms of consciousness?

Do artists, musicians, and dancers experience these other realities ?

Through their art forms they try to explain this reality

The world is a magnificent place

But what if we only experience half of its possibilities?
