			<description>An idea not so clearly definedThis abstract figment we feel.It's a wonder whether stars alignOr do we all have free will?Contradictory thoughts and evidenceProvides us with a blurred truth.Not sure if it's cognitive dissonance,Is my whole life decided at youth?Free to feel what I..</description>

			<title>Reflections</title>
			<description>Out of the water and into the fog,A once drowning man now eyes clog.Hands out in front to avoid what's ahead,Sheltering himself from the pain before shed.Coming upon a mirror in the clearStill blurred from the cloudy air.Sleeve of his shirt, water vapor smear,Looking upon a glass now bare.But a refl..</description>

			<title>Movie</title>
			<description>The scariest movie ever to be seen,Monsters disguised as the people,The rich and the poor, no in between,Cities climbing above the old steeple.Powerful rule while the weak suffer,No hero, no authority to save them.Rebellion is useless and life would be rougher,If the people were to turn more evil wo..</description>

			<title>Friend...or Foe?</title>
			<description>Deception is that of a multicolored flower,Preying on that of trust it grows in power.Bleeding out all that flows in good's veins,Until this traitor's evil empire reigns.How ironic it seems to come about,The greatest schemes stem from doubt.That of a friend close but feign,Comes to be the root of al..</description>

			<title>Change Of Song</title>
			<description>God where are you I'm missing your touch;That merciful ripple of good in my life.God I miss you, your love is my crutch,And I'm finding it hard to put down the knife.Shredding through the me that once was,I cut and tear at a life we once knew.Scared--cornered inside this life becauseMy old innocent ..</description>

			<title>The Search</title>
			<description>Changing all that I know about me,Starting over my search of who to be,I leave the past behind without a glance,And put an end to my childish trance.&amp;nbsp;Old fantasies and beliefs jumbled,A new person formed like a puzzle.Bitter-sweet it is tossing memories,Change is good, yet some I'm missing.&amp;nbs..</description>

			<description>Done, defeated, and down on one knee,Speak your last, you make your plea.No honorable fight, no cowardly flight.No Seppuku bringing you into the light.Heart racing denying this death,Savoring what might be your very last breath.Not a hero, not a God,Only human filled with flaw.Sweat drips, goosebump..</description>
