Come Quickly by ninjaphobos, literature

Literature

Come Quickly

O, Lord, come quickly We have spread our love to those and things that do not deserve a thought. Only remove it from my heart Or remove my heart from here This constant battle raging defining moods and dreams. My own two feet lack strength And all my bones creak This failing body dooms me To failure and to death. You said we could move mountains All I want is to wake up free To worship with a conscience clean To go about my day and then Come back home to sleep again. Even so, come quickly.

Revive Me In Your Ways by ninjaphobos, literature

Love of My Life by ninjaphobos, literature

Literature

Love of My Life

The days are few when I am speechless. The day that I met you was one of those. A frozen feeling crept from my chest My lips so awkwardly kept closed The times are few when I am breathless. The time our lips first met was one of those. Beams of light fell on my heart And stole what air was left in me The nights are few when dreams are sweet. The nights that I'm with you are some of those. Kind company, a gentle hand Silence purposeful, a heart exposed The hearts are few that are complete The one I join with yours is one of those Shaking legs and shaking hands But our minds one, our promise made The lives are few that are fulfi

Literature

Elaborate Designs

Within the human heart relief Love is always laced with hate Faith always with disbelief Decadent tombs take the bait Masters of infirmity Replace affliction With addictions Fail to cut the rotting line White-washed holes enshrined Elaborate designs Covering the death inside Each morning rising anew rises The pain It rises Stricken as grief turns down life And the dead die once again Allotted only once to die Twice they lie down, unforgiven

To Say Goodbye by ninjaphobos, literature

The Pride of Life by ninjaphobos, literature

Literature

The Pride of Life

My hands are dry As are my eyes I've grown weary of My own creation. Slender fingers Touch my face, The worried lines I can't erase. Pull out a buck And a half in change The profit of all Of my toil today. Electric hum And tepid air A shaky hand And fading hair Alone at night, and day, I swear And aching joints Beyond repair. I hit the bed Turn out the light And plunge myself Into the night. I try to shake The jeering cries Before tomorrow's Morning rise. This is the state Of one man's mind Who tried and failed To touch the sky. But who am I To place the blame? And what's the sky When you've got fame?

Stretched Out by ninjaphobos, literature

Literature

Stretched Out

A tongue of fire Consumes them all Dry grass they are Thrown to the flame [Chorus] Fire Consuming Fire His hand stretched out Has struck them down Fell in ignorance Succumbed to insolence What have you done To summon this? Root to rot Blossom dust The laws rejected Judge them at last Mountains quaking No peace in death They lay like refuse In the streets [Chorus] And for all this His anger is not spent, His hand is still stretched out.

Desperate Housewives by ninjaphobos, literature

Literature

Desperate Housewives

Desperate she says For a life that’s not the same She was wed, did it anyway Did she even know his name? [Chorus] Our culture condones it Slap on the label Of social liberty. We sit idly by As they all deny Their infidelity. Dismayed he says Marriage in trouble, out of hand After the fighting split their lives The kids, the house, the van [Chorus] [Bridge] Backwards, and upside down Turn around, still wear a frown A house of mirrors before our eyes A life of horrors, desensitized Where is the hope, the love, the life That was promised past the strife? We travel on desperate, dismayed Our lives in complete disarray

A Prayerful Petition by ninjaphobos, literature

Literature

A Prayerful Petition

You gave into your greatest passion Because you thought to fill a hole This latest heart-felt, short-lived fashion Something short of not-quite-whole Condone the endorsement of your mind Give in to the higher powers Leave your innocence behind Wash your sin in guilty showers Unclean! Unclean! Your heart shouts night after night Live! Live! Your spirit cries in vain You lack the will, the heart, the might "Find the way," your mind pleads But cleanliness is gone from your sight Your heart controls your spirit guide Your mind is blind to the Unseen A victory never received. Are you proud to sing of how Your lives are hours sho

Feet of Clay by ninjaphobos, literature

Literature

Feet of Clay

A farce of life Is fed to us The puppets listen and believe The wise read hearts and see conceit The faithless one is quoting scriptures At least the ones that benefit "We can do all things," you said Used your intellect to skew Finished with your own device To fit your painted, tainted view. [Chorus] MENE, MENE, TEKEL PARSIN See the writing on the wall The kingdom has been torn from you See the braying human fall. REPENT REPENT Your soul commit The puppets see the outward strength Astonished by your awesome power Understand now, all is fleeting The podium hides feet of clay

Can it Be? by ninjaphobos, literature

Literature

Can it Be?

Sitting on the park bench past The garden visited. Remember when we were here last So simply we existed Leaning hand in hand we strolled Through the sunlit, warming grass. Head to head with eyelids closed In a scene fragile as glass. Delicately steps made forward Some too swiftly, some too slow Halting, running, laugh ‘til crying Did our faces always glow? Thus we made our promenade Through a life that was our own Made a name in hearts and spirits Now our memory’s set in stone.

My Ship Set Sail by ninjaphobos, literature

Literature

My Ship Set Sail

I sit eating fries My back to the window A reflection in my glass A last warm, pale peach glow "Red at night is the sailor's delight" But I am ashore My ship has set sail I was not onboard. Why, oh Valentine, Patron saint of this sea, This small briny ocean That wells within me, Did my ship set sail On the sea without me? Is it to be blown about By careless winds? Is it to be tossed around By waves of emotion? To rest on some crag Far away from its home With no moral compass With anywhere to go Blind to my hope, my faith, my creed My ship wanders on To fill up its need Yet hope remains A voyage is to come With a sh

First Update

Well, so I'm not really new to the site, but I guess I'm new to the deviant community.  I've been wandering around here for years looking at the submissions of friends and strangers that happen to strike my fancy.  Now I've finally succumbed and joined myself.  Right now, I've only got poetry up, mainly because I haven't drawn much in a long time.  Most of my "drawings" are done in MS Paint and involve stick figures and maybe the slightest bit of "texture", at least as much as Paint can do. Happy deviating...or devianting?  Whatever...just keep drawing stuff I like.
