Light Curtains

The light hung like curtains in the sky,
wind I didn't feel billowing the rays.
And left, from a mountain peak,
a path of the clouds switch-backed upward.

It brings foggy memories of fantasies dreamed
and brilliant moments lived...

The embrace of my Liege,
to draw me from despair's dark dungeon

The Choir of two voices
when worship melted else away

Visions of His castle
and the sound when He sings my name

And lands of emotions
crafted of the breath in my mind

Today, life is a reminder
for across the sky is memory written.

Crushed at the Foot || 2009.04.21

Crushed at the Foot

When you find you've been crushed
at the foot of the cross
And away from you crumbled
the shell of armor you made
of your pride and your fears
Left your hands holding nothing,
Save the Redeemer's blood that drips down
And melt the charred
from the wreck of your form
and forms you to life divine

It is then where you can raise above
the death of where you were born
It is there that you may
wear the King's own Glory
For you are His and His alone
