Child-like FaithOn my own strength I relied,My independence and strong will I did pride."Pride comes before the fall,"My all too painful, personal experiences back this truth, best of all.How nave to be a child, and yet beautifully nave at that.Child-like faith is where it's at.Whole hearted belief without a care in the world...

RustMy faith in man,Has fallen as far as it can.Everyone's caught up in getting ahead,Saying whatever needs to be said.Empty promises never intendedTo be defended.Stepping on toes,Is all anyone knows.Everyone is their own "priority one,"As if the world revolves around them, the sun.The only thing to contemplate,Is how better ...

BladeBlade against skin,Attempts to cut away a life of sin.Exhilaration,At the anticipationThe life blood starts to flow,As the pain begins to grow.Dark, warm, red,The drive is fed.At the sight,A heart beats light.This twisted game,Leaves nothing the same.Cold metal,Against the wrist begins to dull.What could be the motivatio...

Two reflective pools Display a haunting image.Through puffy eyes A lifeless soul portrayed.An emptiness so deep Penetrates its broken shell.Bracing herself She stares into the eyes of a stranger.A mascara streaked face No longer recognizable as her own.Tears ceased to flow Yet relief fails to resonate.Displaying her weakness ...

Just The Thought Of YouHow can everything change, yet so much still be the same?Does anything from the past remain?The same people that used to put a smile on my face,Now around them, I feel out of place.The places that used to inspire,Offer little to be desired.My friends have become little more than strangers.The place I on...

An EpiphanyI've been looking for something Jesus never promised,I have been remiss.I was looking for my happily ever after.Jesus promised suffering, if He I sought after."Shoulder your cross and follow me,"Is how His disciples came to be.Jesus' suffering, to His death lead,As he said,"Forgive them; they know not what they do,...

Catch Twenty-TwoStuck in the middle,A foot on each side,Trying to solve the riddle,As the truth hides.To commit to one way,Is too big a gamble.Emotions to sway,Causing the scramble.Once across the line,There's no going back.Watch for the signs,Prepare for attack.Loose what was gained,Daring to try,Or let things remain,Always ...

On My OwnI tried to erase you from my mind,But you, I always find.You're not so easy to leave behind,These memories, impossible to rewind.In this world so dark,You set off a spark.You're always good,Even when no one else would.You gave my life meaning,Never once were you demeaning.I owe my life to you,You changed my point of ...

Fairytale EndingsFairytale endings do come true,I came to believe the second I met you.Right out of the books,My heart you took.Believe in love at first sight?I used to think, "Yeah, right!"But at first glimpse of you,I think, "Now I do!"Nothing over the top about our meeting,Just a simple cordial greeting.But as our eyes met...

Lonely BoyI've tried to hate you.I've tried to forget you.But no matter what I do,My thoughts always drift back to you.I've let such a lonely boy,Rob me of my joy.There is something is your eyes,That whispers fatal lies.You're such a lonely boy,Masquerading as coy.There is something in your smile,That lingers for a while.You'...
