Poetry Post 129

Looking For Reason, Faith, Peace
Hundreds of years the hunting hasn't ceased
Looking for reason, faith, and peace
Prisoners waiting for release
Looking for reason, faith, and peace
Reason is the truth behind the truth
A link between a clue and the proof
Faith is the security of proven fact
A certainty without any lack
Peace is absolute freedom of existence
Without force, restraint or resistance
But reason has been reclusive
Faith has been illusive
And peace has been elusive
And those results are all that seem conclusive

Emotional Slavery
Hunchbacked from a burden you cannot see
My frail, broken shadow shows a soul of slavery
My master is the master of depression
He whips me into anguish and aggression
You wouldn't understand why I'm so frustrated and dramatic
But in my life self doubt and self hatred come automatic
Failure is not an option it's my lifestyle
Misery is not a feeling, but my genetic profile
So you ask expectations to be set upon me
But what can you expect when I'm not emotionally free

King David
On the road of King David I wish to trod
A human soul with the will of God
A brilliant hope to those living with sin
Proving flesh is an obstacle to even the holiest of men
I wish to be such a warrior of ethical humanity
Someone who in battle can maintain moral sanity
From Goliath, to Saul, to Bathsheba, to Absalom
You had many resentful feelings to overcome
Your passion for all things divine in man and beast
Makes you a hero and a friend to say the least
I feel like I know where you come from
Hopefully I'll follow you into Jehovah's Kingdom
