See Through Me

You see through me, for I cannot hide my heart away
Longing for a reprieve from feeling darkness someday

You know how black my soul is, you can see the hues
But yet how you can love this vessel, I’m so confused

How can I deserve one as you is such a great mystery
Our true love is the kind that goes in books of history

One day I hope that all the black from me fades away
Longing for a reprieve from feeling darkness someday©

R.I.P.

Like a memory that is under the surface, void of cohesion
Struggles to figure out where it is or what sence it makes
So are the feelings of one as she, staring into the mirror
Who is this person? She is plainly no longer recognizable
A fog of memories surrounds her, drowning out all clarity
Still nothing comes of it, like a word stuck on your tongue
Wake her from this nightmare or better yet, let in the dark
A heart cannot bear the pounding and her lungs the weight
Falling into an abyss that has no beginning or any ending
With eyes now closed and future hid, she wanders aimless
Until at last her bones are buried and written here reads…
“Rest In Peace”

After The Storm

Despair shouts my name
Telling me it wants to talk
But I know it’s just a game
Forever I feel it will stalk

I’m ravaged in the night
As it takes from my heart
It holds onto me so tight
Fearing it will never depart

But then as I dream of you
It chases all my terror away
Wakening I feel brand new
Seeing much clearer today

With all your might hold on
Please guide me each night
Bring me safe to the dawn
All my demons you’ll smite

You are the sun after it rains
A healing begins in my soul
Driving away so many pains
Finally I begin to feel whole

I’m faced with many choices
Yet things become very clear
Calming all of the loud voices
Because love conquers all fear©

Take Me To The Sea

Take me to the sea, let the water wash away my tears, let the salt heal my wounds and let the warmth of the sun encompass my soul.© ~Mac

Up In Smoke

Like a magician you perform, To your audience of one
Making people disappear, All in the name of fun

Acrid smoke and mirrors, Play a dangerous game
And for a clown as me, I live with only shame

Dimming of the lights, Curtains slowly spread
Is this all the final act? Will I soon by dead?

The music starts its tempo, Softly calls to me
“Come now lonely child, I can make you free.”

“There are no expectations, Nothing you need fret.”
But I see through his charade, It leaves me with regret

At last this great performer, Reveals himself you see
Life is but a vapor and behind this mask was only me
