Recent Poems -- This one is from Sailor Moon's perspective, circa early first season. "I Guess You Could Say That" I guess you could say that I live two lies. Tonight, bearing this is too much to stand. I toss back, forth, won'dring what I shall be Come tomorrow - same as now or diff'rent. God, what am I? Servant? Lover? Traitor? Does my pursuit of love damage your heart? I guess you could say I'm need-ing some grace 'Cause I love complaining when things go wrong. When I'm strong, though, weakness I'd hide shines through, Shaming my name, wounding my friends, though I Know the Kingdom still stands: blind to failure, Lifting up my weak side over my strength. I guess you could say I need naught but love. -- Here's one from Mercury's perspective. "All I Had" Yeah, I'm the one who's found at work I keep my eyes set towards the prize: Good grades, the admiration of My teachers, parents, classmates, friends. But every time I rely On that, I fall to misery, And I remind myself of this: When all I had was faith in you, We walked the night with not a fear. When all I had was one bright hope, I could ignore doubts, rise above. When all I had was love from God, Belief came quick, I'd find no shame. What now have I to claim? All I Received, the day a girl opened Her heart for me. She said I could Escape the cage the world built 'round My lonely soul. The trap of fear Soon fell away, and then my soul Remembered what I had been told In days when all I had was you. -- And one from Mars'. "Wearing the Blindfold" Build the wall, tear it down, climb it twice. Telling you what I think, shout it out. Don't think I hate you, friend, just 'cause I Have no diff'rent way to say the words. Speaking in tongues we can't understand. Messages won't go 'cross our phone lines. Still I hear your ev'ry word tonight, Like a note on the door, it's so clear I'm to blame for the way I shamed you, Taking the corban as my own gift. Guess I've been wearing the blindfold to All the ways that you could teach me love. Show me light, roll my stone, take the mask. Let's find out how we could mend the wounds. Tell me again that I can let go. You shall reign over me come someday. 'Til that comes, there's today waiting still. For the millennium, let us live. -- Please refer to the Index pages for disclaimers. More importantly, please go back to... I.N.T.O. Page: Welcome Page:
