Eva

Eva knew not the time of day

Eva had somehow lost her way

But Eva knew not to worry or fuss

Because Eva was never to be left in the dust.

Eva smiles, “I’ll be home soon.”

“How long will you roam, awaiting doom?”

Others would question her sanity so.

But Eva goes on. Never alone.

Musicman

The music box opens

The faint melody floats lightly

Growing louder in her ears

But for a moment, she sways.

The little girl lifts her head.

Her hair flies out of her face.

The music glistens in her eyes

It means more than the lovely sounds.

Every spin of a chord,

Every note and charming bell

Tinkling sounds amuse her.

Make her breath swell.

The glimmer of hope

Amidst the dark tale of doom

Was all she needed

To notice light through the gloom.

Foes forgotten, fate flimsy no more

She sees the glow of the friend, sought for.

The music reminds her again to smile.

The musicman knew the strange tides.

In His Arms

When all the world looks down on you

And you see yourself shining.

All you need to do is hold on to the Truth

And nothing can cause you to fade.

Everything said, everything done.

Not one distraction standing.

You smile, satisfied, because you know.

God is always watching.

And it’s not judgement you see in His eyes.

But love abundant and growing

You wonder why, for you, He cries.

And you go on never knowing

But to you he calls out.

By name he chose.

He wants you right beside him.

To show the world that hope isn’t lost.

It’s in His arms residing.

Two - Face

Cautious and scared, always aware.

Proud and arrogant, unthought blare.

Hiding uncertain of what to say.

The ignorance, my badge of honour today.

Quietly shaking in intimidating silence.

Screams fuel the anger shared.

Darkness, the voice of hatred bore.

Innocence, lost in utter despair.

Purity blemished, unable to rebound.

Vengeance did not like clarity sound.

Stories transcend, yet they cannot comprehend.

Attack vigilant, there was no defense.

Stare into the void. Blink.

Blatant fear, awaiting the cringe.

Numb, broken, bound, ensnared.

Numb, unsatisfied, reverse what was dared.
