Sven Rhoads Poems

Our eyes met when we looked beyond the metal cage
A glance of uncertainty and of unknowing fear
Sitting side by side a bond was forged on life's stage
Injected into my heart you were one I held so dear
...

I've felt the beating return
The single spark to let it all burn
You stand beside me, devotion in your eyes
And deep inside me I could never deny
...

Eyes open before the dark stream
How it all feels like a familiar dream
The journey is coming to a close
A brand new place I swear I know
...

This fight that I must come to win
Against the hands of gravity
The waves are growing taller
As the seas begin to rise
...

With no love from the rat race we're all in
I'll take my chances going it alone
I am more beast than man, they call me sin
But you cant speak for my choice off the road
...

A shift in the wind has dropped me to this place
Still standing in the shadow of a failed design
No comfort will change the warriors face
For he has only one thing on his mind
...

Across the universe they've made out of wires
No pulse in the heart carved from stone
Feeding the dead with venomous propaganda
Breaking down the bonds between you and I
...

Oceans rise to clear the board of pawns
Blinded by the greed, the power, the grace of god
When the shores are eaten by the waves
We'll all see the future sinking in the bogs
...

Tales of old have been carrying rocks
'Thats how it goes', it completely sucks
Too many excuses to remain in sloth
Burning futures, charred up and lost
...

I stand at the crossroad where the lines are drawn
Gasoline is burning at the break of dawn
It no longer matters who is right or wrong
I want no part of the virus called stupidity
...

For so long I have heard a voice in the wind
Speaking to me with its addicting gravity
Like the siren that has my song to sing
I see only the direction on which to go
...

I feel the tingle across my skin
Like the time is running out
A ceasing fire is calling within
Silence pushing in all the doubt
...

Kissed by the cold wet tears of the clouds
As the battlefield is crimson and gray
Silence covers the dying screams so loud
There is no sun to begin this day
...

Here deep down in the black silence
I can see her face like a floating dream
Struggling with a life of self reliance
Sinking like a stone in a rushing stream
...

In a time of despair I was hanging by my own hands
All the words to explain remained under my tongue
Dawn and dusk was just another falling grain of sand
Too sad to continue to stand, too hateful to kiss the gun
...

Smoke is twisted and tangled with the evening sky
The gods are on fire and cannot help us now
Each horizon is burning a crimson red
Its out of our hands, the coming fight
...

This pale empty sphere floats where none reside
Yet I can still see her face like long before
That tangled embrace said its last goodbyes
Traded my heart for a web of thorns
...

Empty minds and hungry hands keeping taking more
I've drained the last drops but its never enough
I'd hate to see what down the road will have instore
In the strangle hold all efforts will be snuffed
...

Inside the empty black space
Floating in a state of nothingness
Ten thousand lacerations
Forming from the thoughts in my mind
...

Dragging myself over the broken glass
Of the misery that I've been so entwined
In my darkest hour that shall be the last
To feel the chill running up my spine
...

The Best Poem Of Sven Rhoads

Kindred Spirits

Our eyes met when we looked beyond the metal cage
A glance of uncertainty and of unknowing fear
Sitting side by side a bond was forged on life's stage
Injected into my heart you were one I held so dear
As time goes on our union turned to the iron strong
Two lost souls were slowly melding into one
This holding divide wont keep us apart for long
Until we both rose to greet eternity in the rising sun

And in my heart you forever beat in synchronization
Those empty islands have formed one proud nation
Love fed fire that defied with white hot determination
That nothing would keep us apart from one another

We understand without words even being spoken
Like the blowing winds have given us this token
And no one will take it away, we'll be together in the coming days
We entwined our souls and found the perfect match
Locked behind closed doors, we were the key to the others latch
And no one will keep us apart, we are kindred spirits at heart

When time comes to call you home forever
I will watch crimson tears fall from my stopping heart
Let no angel wings of the whitest of all feathers
Keep this love for you from where you now depart
And in your memory I will etch into my skin
The ink of immortalizing for your memory to remain
No matter what will be, you're here with me within
Through the brightest sunshine and pouring rain

When my bones turn to dust and breath expires
I will find a way with our love's burning fire
Wait for me at the fence because you I wont forget
I will come to see you again, but for now... not yet
