MULTIPLE PIETY

Sometimes I wonder
Where will I get with all this wander 
May be I will be the last wonder
No wonder I seem to be the only one of my kind alive
Seeking to understand the five rays
While the fire of one God still burns in me
Amids the demand for multiple piety
I keep faith but sometimes fail to go to church on Sunday
I find mammon greatly important
But I do not wish to abandon my jealous God
To whom I send my piety to find pity for my soild soul
Him I am expected to give blind faith
For love is blind and I am bound by my allegence to love Him with all my heart
I wish to turn to understand my ancestors who warshiped one God and called him a different name
The God I am told they saw in the sun and old trees
And the first mission to our land declared them pagans
Turning my eyes to see what they saw is quite for bidden
So my faith swings on the seesaw of insatiable desire
Coupled with modernization quickly taking over
The powder keg of religion calls for devine clarification
Every other sees the other to be hell bound
They make a questioning heart enquire if the Master of all who is always right could be a little wrong
Or if they are all right and it is their judgemt but wrong in their faith
Possibly they are all wrong in their piety and judgements
What if only a select few are the only ones who are right
I give up
And kneel down to warship the God my father and mother told me
I try hard to keep faith in the caleidoscop of warshipways

MEANING

If you sing songs And your songs are sung Would they have a meaning? If you danced And your dances are danced Would they have a meaning? If you lived well And your life is lived Would it have a meaning? Would it have a meaning if it goes with the wind? Would it have a meaning if your marks on earth were erased? Would it have a meaning if you were not remembered?

HEART OUT

You are the one I think of when I am blank When I am happy you are the one I call I think of you when I am sad I pour it all on you And I feel it is all right I call you when I reach a problem's dead end Together we find a way to move to the other side of the wall With you I feel like the lake Galilee When Jesus was calming the storm You are my rain maker You make me feel hope You are the cloud that causes my worst storms When I know that I am the reason you are shedding tears I feel so comfortable beside you I can sing off key But it is all right because I wont be judged I can talk and talk Be sure that I will be heard I can keep the quiet of a grave And not be scared that it will be heard wrong Yes I can be headstrong Then we will fight and make peace I can be fearful when you are scared And we will curdle together I can hope when you have lost hope And you can hope when I have lost mine For that is how we become better You are beautiful to my eyes and ...

OVERSTAYED VISIT

You don't need me So I thank you for the good you have done I say it in silence That way you will not sense the silent good bye It hurts me that our business in your face is done But I will remember we were brothers I will pray for you For my prayer is that you fly high and steady in the strong winds I will not forget that you helped me And the much I am or will be will acknowledge you But tonight I will pack what I can And leave your house brother Not groaning For all of us are guests in each others lives In my case I must have overstayed my visit I hope love never grows old I will find peace when it thrives again But now It is obviously used.
