Your words can't hurt me anymore
I have been set free
All that was, no longer is
And who I was, I no longer am
All by saving grace, sent from above
All by mercy, graciously bestowed
Thank You for my freedom
Thank You for Your love
Thank You, thank You, thank You
What more can I say?
Oh yes...there is one more thing...

I LOVE YOU

Nothing

Standing on the verge of dreams
Nothing's ever as it seems
Scratching, clawing for a scrap of reality
Images flash across your face
Images of what you are
Of who you are
You don't like what you see
Suddenly this dream has become a nightmare
All that there is something that is so overbearing
How could things have ever come to this?
How did this even happen?
How could who you are on the inside have turned into this?
When did it turn to this?
Sure, on the outside, all is beautiful
Pulled together
Perfect
But no
You now see and grasp what it is that has haunted you for so long
It is the real you

This...

This nothingness that is displayed before you

How?

....how?

LOL

Round and round the world we go
Don't we know it all ends the same
Why not do something of note now
Why not get noticed now
Why wait til we're dead and gone
To see if maybe, just maybe we get some credit
Why not shout it from the rooftops

Social Obligation

I mix, I mingle, I do my best
To focus on you and not forget the rest
Social obligations all of the time
We don't get along but we have to act fine
Why on earth do we pretend?
Why can't this be the end
To all of this petty and pointless talk?

I'm standing here
Taking in
The beauty of
Your amazing love
Protruding from the tops of trees
Radiating from the flowers I see
Flowing from the rivers around me
Coming from the songbird's mouth
Up above the mountain tops
Spewing from the geyser's depth
Ebbing in the ocean's flow
All around me
Beauty,
Love,
Your love
As far as the eye can see

I Talk to Birds

Some would say it's weird, me talking to the birds

But they understand me, motivate me, move me

They tell me I can soar to new heights

Accomplish what has never been accomplished

Be who I wanna be and not what you want from me

They tell me I am strong, and bold, and vivacious

I am above all worries and heartache

I can say, do and act as I wish with no retribution

So, you may say it's weird, me talking to the birds

But I understand them, learn from them, and move on

lost

i had a moment of perfection
love, life and happiness were right
now it has all just blown away with the wind
leaving nothing to reside
i freakin miss my life
the way it use to be
but now i must move on
never has that ever been so challenging

Crushed

Once upon a time....
Seems so long ago
Now she is broken and tattered and torn
Never to see the light of day ever again
Never to experience grace...
Mercy....
Love....
She thinks she never has a prayer of having any of that again
She is all alone
Never again coming up for air
Pushed to the limits of her existence
All she has ever fought for is now lost

Burst of Energy =)

I sing
I dance
I shout hallelujah
Life is going great
Life is going good

=)

You have become a Monster

How can you act like someone no longer exists when at one point they were the only one that kept you breathing? I was there for you through the thick and through the thin. When she was toying with your emotions, I was there, trying to be as solid of a rock that I could be. You told me everything. I even know things about you that you may never know I know. You were truly a puzzle to figure out, but I did. I wanted to. You meant so much to me and I wanted to show that to you. Now you just up and walk away. Another "she" has come along. I wanted to tell you how much I actually liked her, but you shunned me totally and completely out of your life. I truly cannot understand it. You are no longer the person I once had figured out. Every night is torture knowing that I can never have the one thing that was good in my life back. I want you here with me. I wouldn't even care if I felt like a third wheel, I just want to be a part of your life again. I want to see you get engaged and married, get that job you've always wanted, have kids, be there to hear your stories of how you've traveled the world. But I can't, you won't let me. You have become a monster, and I don't know what to do. I suppose there is nothing that I can do, really, and that upsets me to no end. I can only pray that God will change your heart or let me forever forget what you have meant to me.

All for You

I only want you to know who I truly am
From the inside out
No strings attached, knowing me perfectly
I want you to sing with me
Laugh with me
All for the same reasons that I do
I want you to understand this passion burning deep in my soul
For those with no voice
The young
The oppressed
The unborn
They tear my heart into about a billion pieces
I cry and yearn for their lives to be restored
I want them to have the same hope and freedom that I sometimes take for granted
I want them to know what love is
To know that they are wanted
To let others know that they are wanted
No more of this wickedness please!
They can't help but be in the midst of this
They have no choice
But we can help
We can fight
We can join forces and be their voice
Why not?
They need us
And we need them
Plain and simply put
We need them.
