Once upon a time

I have been a Child

I have been a child
With feelings-Tame and Wild
I was true,
Desirous and Crude.
Alien and Native,
Of depth and creative;
I was never mediocre once before.

If i find you of depth anymore,
I will seek you
For my graceful places seeks too.
Forgive,my hunger may devour
For i am no seeker like before;
I am more,
A scorching as the sun.
I am not the mortal i was born.

Promises

Do not forget the promises you’ve made
Because they are words,
In spirit and blood binding.

Do with caution the words you make,
For it is binding,
Word for word.

As we live our days
Breaking our promises made,
They will haunt us.

For we’ve carved of these words
Forged with the elements,
And of love, spirit and blood
Binding by laws of nature.

Promises.

Many have ended by own hands
And still,
They break more....promises:
They make, they tell yet,
Even in hell
For Heaven has no place
For The Heartbreaker
