Truly Alive
Because I listen for how it sounds,
I am trapped in listening to whispers on a breeze -
Of life, interrupted, and ev'ry little sneeze.
I feel my heart pounding
A beat on the fly,
And I wish for one moment
To truly be alive.

DEAR HEART
Did you know?
You are my muse
The flimflam sputter
Of inspiration
The thump, thump drum
Of it all
What is it?
That you
Spring
I hunger for the grace to be reborn,
to take my hurts and failures
and mulch them into new beginnings ;
to turn them
by Collin Jones
I can't stand these feelings
Of always competing
Always pushing for first place
And ending up last.

by Helen Joshua
More of Jesus.. and less of me..
Reflecting in my life..,
When some one slap me,
I would ready to get once more.
Loving
