Compass of Our DestinyOn the road to your gypsy soul
in the vastness of my world
chasing heartbeats and fireflies
across wooden covered bridges
navigating deep and arid canyons
beneath a sweltering summer sun.
I'll trace the compass of our destiny
leading me to a foreign land
I'll find you roaming...

My Heart Is A Compass
"My heart is a compass lost at sea finding its North in the gaze of thee."
This compass points directly at you
whether your North East South or West
Aligned to your magnetic pole
I am being magnetized
You are an orientation arrow
my Polaris...

Broken CompassWhat is left?
When your rights are simply wrong?
When my north is mostly south
and our shortcomings last too long?
When is up?
When my highs are lowered down?
When good blends into evil
and arc angels are not around?
Where are you?
When my what's fold into why's?
And the falsities of our...

Trail Point, America's CompassHold and veer revolved career, the way by man alone on trails unknown, across
trackless stone, to follow where? across prairie’s bare! traveling light with bellies
tight, on rocky shores its lore was sure, to follow, follow across crag across hollow
your roads were strung as songs...

Dead Star Compass
"Dead Star Compass"
When you’ve lost
your entire world
and there’s no return,
you either fold your cards
or join the Legion.
we fought
on the front lines.
the Normals said
we were on a suicide mission;
not so, more like we joined
to feel something,
Human.
even
if it was
through

while in my heart dance rainbows to blissful cheery melodies

A Moral Compassthe Lord
will not judge
you on how often you pray
or how
earnestly you pray
prayers are no more than words
they hold no meaning for God
He has no desire to be praised or worshiped
that was never your purpose
that's why He gave you free will
you're born with a soul
a moral...

Sans CompassLike a fish out of the water
you caught me by surprise
and
my mind a continual motion machine
perpetuates my nervousness
and endorphins
push through my veins like
an excitatory Water Park.
Initially when I began to speak to you it was like going going down the waterslide with
the 50 foot...

CompassEnvelope life with firm arms,be for it pleasure
windings and uprisings take for measure
inevitables that are thrown down your path
sensibily minded doing the math
for you are that compass you do choose
north east south or west,upto you if you lose.

Love Without MeasureI love you beyond the borders of language,
where words stumble,
faltering in the shadow of feeling.
No map charts the expanse of this tenderness,
no compass finds its edge.
I love you as the ocean loves the shore,
returning endlessly,
even when it is sent away.
I love you as the sky...

A Tillerman's StoryA Tillerman's Story
To each, a compass, would I give this day..,
to help guide through the treacherous waters of life.
For we humans, oft found wanting, do stray..!
bumping bows of other's, leave hearts torn in strife.
Wield well this gift, to find love and compassion..,
reach out your hand,...
