A Winter Wonder

The dark clouds and sullen sky
A somber time has come
The symphony that is to be
Cannot be be matched by one
The scattered rains drip away
Feeding our Earth life
With low winds it helps begin
To deal with all our strife
A man stands as best he can
Asking himself, "Why?"
A desolate pain a lingered stay
A broken man can die
At god's fury he yells a flurry
Of words and excuses
And with loud thunder came asunder
Thoughts that confuses
And heavy lighting always blinding
Calls out to this pain
A voice of reason never treason
Eases his mental strain
A man lies for his demise
As he gazes at the sky
A fallen angel simply unable
As gods continue to cry.

An Ode to Coffee

Hey there. Like millions of other people across the globe, I tend to start my day with a cup of joe. Been drinking the stuff since I was little. I know caffeine is not good for you at a young age, but eh, grandma used to give me coffee (usually black) while eating pan dulce (sweet bread). Now that's I'm in the work force, coffee is basically the forgotten food group. lol So here's to you, coffee. Enjoy!



Oh warm, sweet nectar of gods
Day in, day out
You quench my thirst
While dispelling the Sandman's dust
You heighten my senses
And liven my body
To start a day with you
Is to be destined for greatness
You are never dull
You never taste the same
With many colors to suit everyone
You never argue
And always go down smooth
Oh warm, sweet coffee
In a world full of turmoil
I can always count on your aroma
To quiet demons and bring angels
Bringing peace to millions
One cup at a time.

Happy Birthday, Little One

Today is my little one's birthday. Turns 3 years old. It just so happens that today is America's birthday too. For all my American friends, light up the grills, slap on some meat, and do what us American's do best, eat up. lol

For my baby, here's a little something for you.

Daddy's little girl is one year older
One year wiser
Your striking smile
Gleaming pearly whites
Will always warm my heart
To hear you laugh and see you play
You invigorate my soul
Today, my baby is one year older
And one year closer to when...
You are daddy's little girl no more.

I know she's still small, but as a pops, you never want to face the fact that one day, there will be another man in her life. And just as a warning to that 3, 4, 5 year old out there... I'll have my eye on you... lol Later.

PS. I know that she'll be calling me a "dork" many, many, many moons from now when she sees the picture that I posted with this. lmao

Ode to Star

A lone diamond twinkles brightly
Like an unsung hero that passes on
No dark clouds to shroud you over
Like a black veil that covers face
You blink
You turn
You light
You burn
O heavenly body, how I envy you
To live in the heavens and watch over
To live a million lifetimes
Our feeble minds advance and regress
While you shine as radiant as ever
As I watch you rise, and soon, your fall
I detest to follow suit
For I know I won't rise with you, my friend
To see your luminescence once again

Forgotten

This nameless feeling engulfs me
A burning sense of desire
A hopefulness to belong

A starry night, with it's king, Moon
Illuminates my soul
Revealing the emptiness that I am

The soft leaves of the Sakura tree
Fall gracefully
Brushing away my tears

With small vile, clutched in hand
Filled with devil's blood
My escape that I seek

Swirling winds, cry for me
The chilled glass pressed against my lips
The cold blood enters my soul

Without much waste
My throbbing heart stops
Securing my soul's place in hell

With swollen eyes
Stone cold skin
My body lies in still

With King Moon
Frowning down
Forgotten, will be my tale

-Metallman

Penance

Will I walk through flames
To purge these thoughts
Of lust and lechery

Will I bleed away
This need to feed
And pleaseure this gluttony

Will I lie down
On my face
To pay for my avarice

Will I be made
To show my strengths
Hard work and diligence

Will I promote
The need for peace
To offset my spite and wrath

Will my eyes be sewn
While envy's pleasures
cloud my every path

Will I fall from heaven
And follow Lucifer
In pride and malevolence

Will all be lost
As I bide my time
For the answer to my penance

-Metallman

Deliverance

His seeds of hate have been planted
This emotion I know so well
His spell that has me so enchanted
And has me chained tightly to this cell

His words that so evoke me
Has locked me in this trance
Nevermore will I be allowed to be
to give my soul it's final chance

His swollen words and mystic smile
Has taken it's effect
With shrieking vows full of vile
I'm now just his puppet

Mother of grace, save me now
From his lord, the dark prince
Forgive my sins, please disallow
And answer for my deliverance
