Poetry by Rodney Vance

DEATH
Lips Turning Blue
Hands Are Cold
This All Too Soon
Death Taken Into The Fold

STRAIGHT EDGE
It Makes me Different
Pure I Pledge
It Makes Me Unique
I Am Straight Edge

LOVE
Love and Happiness are more
than meets the eye,
Love brings happiness,
Forevermore

DESTINY&FATE
You Are The Key
This Is Fate
Unlock You Destiny
What Awaits?

AFTERLIFE?
What is it, this place?
Is there no heaven?
Is it nothing more than empty space?
Will I find peace in the Afterlife?

ENDLESS BLUE
The Endless Blue that is the sky
Wonder what lies beyond?
Is it my creator?
The Endless Blue that will never die

HOPE
When you have no Hope
Don’t give up
When Hope finds you
Don’t let it go
Only Hope

I FEEL
I Feel different
I Feel altered
Nothings different
Yet not the same
Nothing feels real
I Feel so numb
I don't feel invincible
Yet I Feel I can do anything
I Feel lost, yet not
I Feel everything

TREES
Trees sway in the breeze
Where would we be without Trees?
Trees shade me with ease
Where would we be without Trees?

GOODBYE
Under a darkened sky
I never got to say Goodbye
You didn't know how much you meant to me
Nights like this I just break down and cry
Goodbye

ME
I don't want to be anything, but Me
Why won't you leave Me be
I cannot change
I am Me

FREE
You have not yet cleared the trees
But do not despair
It will be over soon
You will be free

YOUR SOUL
Amidst the sky
I stare into the pool
That are your eyes
Into your soul

BLOOD & GLORY
Bound in blood
A gladiator, you kill
Into the glory
A gladiator, you fight
Blood & Glory

THE WALK
Walking down streets of black
On a rainy night
From fear I was about to crack
In the distance, I see light

Fog rising in air
Wind chilling to the bone
Mist clinging to my hair
As I journeyed home

In this instance
Trees of shadow
Creaking in the distance
Darkness as it follow

So ends the nights presentation
As I reach my destination

SICKNESS
My heart is green with sickness
Have I finally found the one?
So sick, so numb
To nurse me back?

UNTITLED
Sitting on the floor
With nothing to do
Such a bore

Starting anew
On a journey to find myself

THE BOY
What can he do?
He's just a boy
His life, fresh and new
But this world will destroy

What can he do?
He's no hero
No one can undo
All it brings; sorrow

What can he do?
He's not ready
So full of vertu
His life unsteady

What can he do?
As he grows older

ACHE
My heart break
And mind scrape
My soul ache

The one who I never thought
Who always taught

WHITE KNIGHT
I'm a White Knight
On a black horse
I'm the dark
I'm the light
I'm your worst nightmare
I'm dreams come true
I'm the king of the night
I'm the guardian of the light
I am Evil
I am Good
I am the black
I am the White Knight

YESTERDAY, TODAY AND TOMMOROW
Yesterday you left
Today I thought of you
Tomorrow I'm all alone

Yesterday you lied
Today I thought of us
Tomorrow I meet someone new

Yesterday you broke my heart
Today I think for myself
Tomorrow I love again
