Death in the Desert

This is the end of days
The end of time
Dark clouds brew
I hear the bells chime

On this barren desert
With the thunderous clamor
Of lightning strikes
A mighty hammer

Laying inside the car
Resting with my foot out
This is it
Shrunken is my clout

All these years
Of dirty deeds
And broken trusts
Evil now feeds

Here I am alone
Myself and I
Faster my hearts beats
Soon I cannot deny

The pain I caused
Dirty under deals
Have led me here
Death is at my heels

I heave and breath
Caustically heavy
A shot through the chest
Blasted my steady

Though I did deserve
Such injurious treason
The hurt is unbearable
Pain scrambles reason

Why me I say
Then the rain drips
I struggle to see
My soul drops

What dreams may I see
On the other side
Terrified I realize
There is no other side.

I Believe

I believe
I can do this
Go forward
And achieve
My goals
Aspirations
And dreams

Others may
Even loved ones
Bring you down
Dismiss as real
Jokingly laugh
Blasphemy they say
Not attainable

I will not
Let that seep
Into the core
A defense
Stout and strong
Stubbornly heady
I will go on

They see not
The true ambition
Spit at my decision
Curse my sights
Toss the book
In my face
But I stand still

I see the light
The tunnel
Of my desire
My innermost
Core and heart
Soon you shall see
What I believe.

As a dedication
To those who do not believe
What I can achieve
Hard work
Hearty labor
Never give up
And never cease

I believe
And so I shall see
Soon they shall too
Believe
My dreams
My love
And my passion!
