EASTBEAT  - for peace, truth & non-violence

Who am I?

I’m the monster that yells so loudly,
Ears split, eyes water, heads burst
Tears flow.

I am the unseen passion of poison
Hidden deep within
Taking control of you suddenly, unexpectedly
Powerfully.

I’m the one who breaks you,
Taking over your body
My words your mouth                    
My views your eyes
My scream your voice.

My power is unknown to you
So easy to rule
Any sign of weakness
My smile will shine through.

They don’t see me they see you
They don’t know me they know you
They don’t blame me they blame you
I’m so good even you blame you.

I destroy and devastate on your behalf.
Keeping me caged in the red world of your past
I’ll find my way out
Eventually
I’m part of you and you’re stuck with me.

Anger consumes you,
Beware collecting it
And locking it away.
Once you release it  …
It smirks with satisfaction.
What it does is not you
The doors it opens are not for you
The damage it does it leaves for you
Beware the anger hidden, oh so cleverly, inside.


K.T. (12/02/09)

Don't Forget to Breath.

When you're warn down and tired
On the verge of getting fired.
When you're bored or over wired
Left with no more desires.

Don't forget to breath.

When you're stretched to the limit
Given more than your mind's permit.
When you unlock those doors
And found you have openned up old sores.

Don't forget to breath.

When you're coming up for air
No longer feeling scared.
When you've left yourself bare
Without a single care.

Don't forget to breath.

Now the air that fills your lungs
Once a upon a time stung.
Now unlocks your songs unsung
Wrapped up warm in the sun, all because

You remembered to breath.

So with the peace from within
You're ready to begin
As long as you remember

To breath while you sing.
