Love
abounding in wonder
grows truer with time
two hearts fully bonded
Patience
created in struggles
grows stronger with time
two hearts left waiting
Distance
space in between
grows farther with time
two hearts torn apart
Silence
words cease to be spoken
grows deeper with time
two hearts so cold
Hate
emotionless shell
grows greater with time
two hearts left dead

in bittersweet oblivion.
makeup covered bruises.
is this the life she chooses?
scars on the outside
couldn't match those on the inside.
with every hit he makes,
her simple heart he breaks.
still, she loves no other.
he will remain her lover.
her heart is ever so connected,
with a heart that has rejected.
all alone at night, she cries.
and her heart begins to die.
she never seems to understand
how love could demand
a compromise to her purity.
she's lost all her security.
trust, her greatest issue,
she calms with razor blades and tissue.
drowned with blood and tears,
trying to nurture all her fears.
in darkness she'll remain,
sitting cold and broken in the pain.
up against death she will scrape,
forever longing a better escape.

this is your song.
You are the light in my darkness,
the hand that leads the way,
the mark upon my heart
that will never go away.
You are just a simple smile,
the sweet fragrance after the rain,
a hand upon my shoulder,
that relieves all my pain.
You are the purest winter snow,
the warm summer sun upon my face,
and if there were no God,
i'd swear you hung the stars in space.
You are just a note in the song of life,
a single page in its book,
a thread in its tapestry
often unseen and overlooked.
You are the glory of the sunrise,
the beauty of the sea,
the simple elegance of the rain,
and all i'll ever need.

He didn't have to, but He did this, all for you...
Behold, the man upon the cross.
Was it not He who bore our loss?
Sin had left a wretched stain.
He cleansed it all as
He bore the pain.
Suffered in order to pay the cost,
Of the great sin debt laid upon the lost.
From heaven He came.
In His Father's name.
Rejected by men.
Consumed in their sin.
Though His followers were few.
He already knew.
The price He would pay,
So that we would be with Him one day.
He gave His very life,
To relieve men of their strife.
The Father turned His face away,
As the Son died for our sin that day.
He rose again.
Victorious over death and sin.
He prepared a place,
For those who accept His grace.

The beast inside of me
Tears at my soul
Feasting on my misery
Leaving me empty and cold
He rips at my heart
It bleeds and begins to die
Leaving only an empty shell
Void of any life
I feel as though
I'm in coma
I can see the world around
And the beasts inside each one
Kill silently, without a sound
He starts from the inside
He tears you apart
Then slowly decays the outside
After he is finished with the heart
He terroizes, he demonizes
He makes one go insane
Tearing at your own flesh
The beast now rules your brain
He whipers in your ear
Tells you to put it to an end
You're worthless
There's nothing left to mend
He gnaws at the flesh
Digs his claws in your skin
Consumes your body
You let the beast win
Tears at my soul
Feasting on my misery
Leaving me empty and cold
He rips at my heart
It bleeds and begins to die
Leaving only an empty shell
Void of any life
I feel as though
I'm in coma
I can see the world around
And the beasts inside each one
Kill silently, without a sound
He starts from the inside
He tears you apart
Then slowly decays the outside
After he is finished with the heart
He terroizes, he demonizes
He makes one go insane
Tearing at your own flesh
The beast now rules your brain
He whipers in your ear
Tells you to put it to an end
You're worthless
There's nothing left to mend
He gnaws at the flesh
Digs his claws in your skin
Consumes your body
You let the beast win
a false credence.
Shards of glass
Tucked into her flesh.
Her emotions pierce her.
Losing all control,
Past the point of giving in,
Fear embraces her.
Shattered reflection,
Eyes bleeding tears,
She knows she can't win.
Letting go,
Falling deeper into the lie,
She's worthless.
No one ever cared,
No one ever will,
No point in even trying.
Controlled by fear,
Entangled in lies,
She suffocates herself.
Giving up too soon,
She didn't know
There was anything else,
No reason, no motivation
She slowly fades away.
No love, no life.
Tucked into her flesh.
Her emotions pierce her.
Losing all control,
Past the point of giving in,
Fear embraces her.
Shattered reflection,
Eyes bleeding tears,
She knows she can't win.

No reason, no motivation
She slowly fades away.
No love, no life.
picking up the pieces of a broken reflection.
Looking into the glass.
A broken reflection.
Scars so deep inside.
Too deep for human eyes.
Twisted images.
Lies disguised as truth.
Striving for perfection.
I want to look like you.
Perfect figure.
Perfect eyes.
Perfect face.
Envy overcomes me.
I change myself.
All nourishment ceases.
I must be exactly like you.
Or something must be wrong.
My body grows weaker.
My eyes grow weary.
Still I strive for perfection.
I strive to be you.
Hunger is passing.
Food is worth nothing.
I must give up everything.
That's stands in my way.
I'm told that I'm beautiful.
But I do not believe.
I only see a beast.
Not what others see.
Each passing day.
Brings problems of its own.
The life slowly passes.
As time rolls on.
I feel as though no one.
Can understand.
The pain that I feel.
The hunger in my soul.
But there is one who sees.
One who understands.
He fashioned me.
Made me just the way I am.
He loves me.
Though I may not see.
I'm beautiful to Him.
And its all that matters now.
He proved His love to me.
He took my place.
Died for all creation.
No regards to mein.
He's given me a new reflection.
I see myself through His eyes.
I see that I am beautiful.
In ways I've never known.
He does not look upon the face.
Nor the body, nor the mind.
He looks into the heart.
Where true beauty abounds.

from dust to dust.
For those moments in life when nothing seems to go your way,
nothing you do seems to come out right,
and everything seems to crash around you.
For those times when everyone is your enemy,
and you are your only friend.
For the times that your heart will be broken
and there will be no one there to help you pick up the pieces.
For those times when you don't really know who your true friends are.
For those times when the world seems to be crumbling right before your very eyes.
Don't lose hope.
This world is not our home.
We'll only be here for a short time and then we'll return home.
Back to the marvelous Creator and our blessed Lord and Savior.
He'll wipe every tear from our eyes and heal every broken heart.
He'll be the only friend you'll ever need.
He'll be your Guide.
Your Counselor.
Your Father.
And your Friend.
He'll won't always calm the storm, but He'll always carry you through them.
He will never leave you nor forsake you.
Nothing can seperate us from His love.
"For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature shall be able to seperate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus, our Lord." (Romans 8:38-39)
He will forever keep us in His loving arms.
He is there when no one else is and He'll always be there for us,
no matter what.
He is all seeing.
All knowing.
All powerful.
He has no beginning nor ending.
He is Alpha and Omega.
His word is unchanging.
It never fails.
It is a two-edged sword.
Our guide book.
Our game plan.
Our victory.
When all else fails, He will stand strong.
He will be our Rock.
Our Deliverer.
Our Prince of Everlasting Peace.
He is our only means of salvation.
Apart from him, we are nothing.
From dust He formed us,
and to dust we shall return.
He'll give us a new body
and we shall live in His kingdom forever.

simplicity gives no reward.
Nothing will ever be simple.
If it were, it wouldn't be worth anything.
You appreciate something more if it is difficult to gain.
I've found something that is worth gaining no matter what the cost.
Something that I'd give everything for.
It gives life its meaning.
It makes it worthwhile.
I'd travel any distance.
I'd face any challenge.
You can't hold it in your hands.
You can only hold it within your heart.
You can't see it.
It is invisible though it reveals itself when the time is right.
Its works are wonderous.
Like a painting from the heavens.
A sculpture from the master potter.
It gives us wings.
Let's us soar to new heights.
It is the most amazing thing we've been given.
The greatest treasure of all time.
Everyone longs for it, though few there be that find it.
It allows us to close our eyes and open our hearts.
It gives us a new hope.
So we do not have to travel the weary roads of this world alone longer.
Its not anything that one could hope for.
Its everything.
And so much more.

we'll never see the end.
Forever.
That's a long time.
I cant even grasp the concept.
It never began and it will never end.
Its unfathomable.
How will we know if we make it?
Can we ever be sure?
Nevertheless,
I'm ready.
Ready to take a leap of faith.
Your hand in mine.
No one can stop us.
We'll be invincible.
We won't let petty arguements tear us apart.
We won't let anything, or anyone, get in our way.
We'll take on any obstacle.
Defeat any challenge set before us.
Our love will be our guide.
We'll let our hearts lead.
Love will give us wings.
We'll soar above the world.
Nothing will bring us down.
We'll prove that we can make it.

if love exists...
I am amazed in so many ways.
I've found something new.
Something I can share.
Its simple yet more complicated than human intellect can comprehend.
Its deeper than the fabricated feelings that many hold.
It is hidden deep inside.
Only few will ever find.
It is more than just a lust of the flesh.
More than words.
More than actions.
It is confusing sometimes.
Sometimes is makes perfect sense.
It is revealed through the simplest words.
Though words can never capture how magnificent it truly is.
It captivates the heart.
It embraces the soul.
It is difficult to find.
It is easy to hold.
Once you have it, never let it go.
You may never have a chance to hold it again.
I t can change a heart of stone.
Make it soft.
It can mend a broken heart.
Make it whole.
It keeps one in a continual state of bliss.
A laugh.
A tear.
A smile.
A kiss.
Its beauty radiates.
Its wonder permiates.
It gives one reason to live.
Something to strive for.
Something to find.
It is the single most amazing thing in the world.
And one day,
i'll find someone.
someone i can share it with.
I've found something new.

apocryphal.
your perverse ways
lead others astray
your devious plans
no one understands
they follow you blindly
believing that
you know the truth
will no one shed a ray of light?
will all sit back and watch darkness take flight?
you bring destruction
disguised as production
the flock you lead
hangs on your words,
they never read
the book you claim to represent
they believe you know the truth
will no one shed a ray of light?
will all sit back and watch darkness take flight?
lead others astray

a lonely victory.
I feel as though
All time stands still
Waiting for me to
Make a move.
All eyes are watching
As i stand all alone
Will no one stand
Beside me?
Does anyone else
Feel the way i do?
I take my place
Alone but ready to fight
Dying for what i believe
Is far more precious
Than saving my own life
And though i may perish
A greater life lies ahead
I draw my only weapon
And begin to speak the truth
To any that will hear
Praying that they will listen
All time stands still
Waiting for me to
Make a move.
All eyes are watching
As i stand all alone
Will no one stand
Beside me?
Does anyone else
Feel the way i do?
I take my place
Alone but ready to fight
Dying for what i believe
Is far more precious
Than saving my own life
And though i may perish
A greater life lies ahead
I draw my only weapon
And begin to speak the truth
To any that will hear
Praying that they will listen
a picture of forgiveness.
i spoke those words to you
without even thinking
evil slithered off my tongue
and struck at your soul
in only a single second
my heart had grown cold
i didn't even seem to care
that i had hurt you
i was angry at the world
and you were the only one
close enough to share my pain
my heart was hollowed out
only an empty shell remained
i longed for something to fill it up again
and change my evil ways
my soul cried out
but i felt as though
no one was listening
fear consumed my soul
as i pondered the thought
of being all alone
and just as i felt there was no hope
you reached out your hand
assuring me that wth you there
i'd never have to be afraid
without even thinking
evil slithered off my tongue
and struck at your soul
in only a single second
my heart had grown cold
i didn't even seem to care
