"Matter Of Life"

All in a matter of moments

Everything in life fell

Striking suddenly

As fast as lightening

And as quick as an exhaled breath

Thoughts now stand dark

Years worth of memories stream down your cheek

Tears wash through the ruins of what use to be

Numbing the senses

Stripped bare

The sweetest kiss now rots in your mouth

You pray for your cause

To find the path your feet may take next

Everything is here and now

In this moment of living

Nothing reminds you more of existence than this

That getting the life kicked out of your lungs

Shows them how much they love the sweet taste of air

In hope there is belief

Belief breeds conviction

Fight back against the darkness and shadows 

With the light carried within you

"Heart Beat Reason"

Some days there will be darkness

That does not end with the night

One can only hope that a new dawn will be born upon the horizon of life

So your eyes may see a better view

Let it speak to your heart

Sparking new thoughts

That these difficult times is change disguised in another form

Though weak with weary

Your will is strong

Drawing strength deep from your inner core

From the being that makes you you

Whether you break it up

Add it up

Divide it all

You still have you

And those who support you always

So if there is any doubt of what needs to be done

Or what holds you to this life

Place your hand over your heart

Feel the beat and rhythm

Purpose is held there

And that is all the reason you need.
