The Sword Of The Will

The Sword Of The Will

Nearly everyone knows, I say too much;
although, I do mean what I say;
my words have recently become my crutch;
to carry me through the day.

Like everyone else; I’ve a message to bring;
one, sent to me, from above;
although I cannot

Don't Tell All You Know

Don’t Tell All You Know

Don’t tell others; everything you know;
your thoughts are always around;
