The Walking Dead

Sword, shield and armor hung next to the front door
In the routine, it's forgotten, left for dust, seen no more
Outside the dragon waits
Suits of Pride it finds and takes

Words of life fill the page
But lay idle on materialistic night stands
Sun and moon cast their shadows through the window shades
While promises written wait to be made

Angels watch and anxiously wait
While we make a choice
And walk away
The heart speaks
Another day

So many lives await
The standard we should take
The authority given
And a choice to make

So until then
We'll let them die daily
Until we choose to be Men!

Let The Coffee Go Cold Tonight

Let the coffee go cold tonight, cause there's something more here
I don't fully understand this, but I'm glad that you're near
I'm not going to refrain from my heart and tuck-tale and hide
Holy Spirit, You've got me surrendered, and I'm enjoying this high

So let the coffee go cold tonight, cause words conversed
are much sweeter than any cup that touches my lips
moments of silence, I find joy in this
so, I'm letting the coffee go cold tonight
it's better like this

The Beautiful Silence

There's a beautiful silence that only we can see
and it came without knowing, the measure it would bring

when audible words hide and fail to be said
a masterpiece-poem for you, fills my head

let me take this silent time
to capture this painting in my head
may it lead the next line
of what must be said

there's a beautiful silence
that only we can hear
a silent note of the heart
a crashendo in our ear

the Author
He guides and He is near
take these silent thoughts
make them beautiful
that we may both hear

there's a beautiful silence now
and I'm so glad it is here
