Become the Phoenix
You say you are forever down You wear your sadness like a crown A badge of honor, wear it proud You speak of things you’re not allowed You question all your worthiness You treat yourself as if you’re less I say to you right here this day That you must learn a better way This…

On Eternal Edge
On eternal edge, a final stand Will you seize your moment by the hand? Will you take a look before you leap? Are fears within what you shall keep? Will you spread your wings and try to fly? Will your dreams all wither, waste and die? Are you afraid of meeting earth? Only you know…

Eyes of Night
The eyes of night A watchful moon The forest sings A quiet tune Along the path So far away Free from shackles Of the day A magic woman On magic flight Only she can see Through eyes of night ŠThe Beginning At Last

Phantom Rider
Once, I was an evil man. I lied, I stole and I killed. Rattlesnake Martin. I was his right hand. Rode together since we were boys. Together ’til the end. The end came when I least suspected. He got greedy. I got dead. As I drew my last breath, I saw the bullets, They cut…

Gods of Steel
As we charge up ragged hill Within my veins I feel the thrill Of combat close, a burning need On flesh and bone my blade must feed It’s thirst be quenched with blood like wine A sacrifice to gods divine No shield shall hold my sword at bay The Gods of Steel shall smile today…

Hopes and Dreams
Here on the job Another day Her mind is somewhere Far away Somewhere she sings Upon a stage Somewhere she’s free Free from this cage No pushing broom Or cleaning spills Somewhere her voice Inspires chills Somewhere she’s touched Another soul Somewhere she plays A different role Somewhere within Her freedom rings Somewhere she flies…

What Do You Seek?
What is it that you seek In these darkest woods at night? Why do you venture here And leave the safety of the light? Are you looking for an answer To the questions in your mind? Are you looking for a vision Are you scared of what you’ll find? Do you revel in the darkness…

Strand of Hope
Amidst the ash Amidst the haze A witness To the final days A sudden flash A light, distinct In seconds A whole race extinct Despite the warnings Never learned And now the earth Lies dead and burned A strand of hope Perhaps one day We all will find A better way Šī¸ The Beginning At…

Proud Brother
For the first time in it’s brief history, No Theme Thursday did include images with a definite theme. I made them at the request of my dearest Little Sister, Aastha. As some are aware, she has recently announced her upcoming engagement, and she asked for some images to commemorate the occasion. I was more than…

Bluesman
Play, Bluesman, play. From the smoky gin joints in sweet home Chicago. To the city limits of Austin. Or the grand stages of Montreux. Deep down in the Delta. At the crossroads. Or Memphis. Wherever you are. Make her sing. Make her cry. Play one for Stevie. For Johnny. For Albert. For B.B. For Roy.…

Lone Conqueror
In the distance, foreboding, a castle in black So far I have come, there is no turning back Through the trials and tortures, I have conquered them all As I stand at the cusp, they are destined to fall Overlords evil, spreading hatred and fear My heart’s beating faster, destination draws near Allies I found,…
