Brave New World

August 1, 2016 jeremiah Leave a comment

The righteous God came to take me down

Empty Cathedral roars with a silent sound

But the Devil sprung out to drag me around

He clenched my skin and took me straight to the ground

I’ve been ripped of my graceless heart

The demons circle round to tear it apart

Consumed by the darkness I’ve become undone

But the Angels fought hard to help me restart

They held so tight I had no place to run

The only one that can save me now

Is desperately trying to hide in the crowd

As God reached out and yelled my name

I rose like a Phoenix soaring through the flames

But with sinners and saints roaming all through town

Uneasy remains the head that wears the crown

God came up and said it’s your turn now

And as I pierced into her golden eyes

I was struck by a light that made me question life

In her arms I felt so soft and sweet

One million miles away from the terrors of the night

No more dragging around my faded fickle feet

I will no longer be ruled by what’s in the deep

Fool Me Once

Dear Katherine, the unicorn queen,

You did it well, yes you played your part.

I know it’s quite rude but it’s not my fault I stole your heart.

You brought your love baby and I brought my pain.

Next time you come over to stay,

I’ll own your body like my names is Christian Gray.

All the wrongs you committed, You would dance to my songs on the minute.

Girl I warned you about my type but you didn’t listen to the hype.

You fell into a plight and sunshine I know it isn’t right.

You patiently waited for me on the corner of Vandam

Because you wanted me to apologize for the time I broke your hand.

I didn’t want to hurt you, but I know I caused some shame

To call what we had love would be a crime against the masses.

But babe I know your heart will heal as long as time passes

Stand By Me

May 24, 2016 jeremiah Leave a comment

Been having a hard time dealing with pain.

Just hear me out girl, only one exchange

Talk to me please I’m sending postcards from the edge.

I was just calling because I’m feeling smitten,

I need you right now, are you down to listen

I would take a whisper if that’s all that was given.

I know I’ve been acting strange.

Just hear me out and I’ll explain.

You’re my own special kind of drug.

But I know being locked in my mind isn’t enough.

Been holding on to you because I can never let you go.

I’m consumed with sorrow because I can tell,

Your heart is somewhere else.

On those cold lonely winter nights,

You’re trapped in my heart.

You’ve got the best of me, my sweet counterpart.

You’re the perfect pearl.

You make me feel like I own the world.

The Dash

January 16, 2016 jeremiah Leave a comment

Your tombstone declares,

The day you were born and the day you die,

With a dash in between.

So embrace who you are

And don’t try to hide

Because before you know it,

Life is over in a flash

You only live once

So live the dash.

Live For The Day

October 1, 2015 jeremiah Leave a comment

The days pass by on this journey we call life.

Which all in all is just one grand unrepeatable experiment.

I have just created my masterpiece

And I know it will be criticized incessantly.

Since it is a fact that we will all eventually die,

Regardless of what people say,

I will proudly affirm “but on that day I lived”.

Just Ask

September 29, 2015 jeremiah Leave a comment

The art of asking

Is an invaluable skill.

The ability to shed every social mask,

Show vulnerability, and ask,

Is the epitome of strength.

The reality of life

Is that regardless of who they seem to be,

Nobody really knows what they are doing.

A world where everyone lends a helping hand

Is one I’m sure we would all be grateful to live in.

Freedom

September 18, 2015 jeremiah Leave a comment

Because it is the world’s strongest tower,

The human heart is the source of all our power.

I know right now you may be hurting

But in the end you will be okay.

Just hold on to your heart and remember not to cower

Teach yourself to be free

Don’t make the tower your enemy.

The Race Towards Infinity

September 17, 2015 jeremiah Leave a comment

I’m trying to accomplish a revolutionary feat.

But with the race towards infinity compressing me for time,

I feel like I’m constantly falling from my climb

Instead of feeling trapped, with nowhere to go

I’ll sit back, relax, grab a snack, and a six pack.

I now realize that busyness is not necessary productive.

Because not all who wander are lost,

I will strive to enjoy my life at any cost.

Decisions

July 16, 2015 jeremiah Leave a comment

I’m at a crossroads and I need to make a choice.

With a one way ticket to a two way street,

I’m forced to act now and never look back.

With my back against the wall

and no room for regrets

I’ll focus my efforts with the intensity of a jet

but before I set out on my quest,

I’ll eat a baguette and welcome uncertainty, my favorite guest.

Beautiful Gem

June 30, 2015 jeremiah Leave a comment

I’d rather die with memories not dreams.

I want to create memories that I can look back on and remember.

So come with me and let’s explore the city life together.

Because the best way to make dreams come true is to wake up and live them,

Let’s make our lives the world’s most beautiful gem.
