You can't buy true happiness

You cant buy true happiness,
Love and/or respect.
Thats a temporary bandaid
masking the pain.
It can get infected,
leaving scars and sometimes amputation. Noone wants that.
So you need to address the root of the cancer with power passion honor truth and morality cut the cancer out at the root of the issue dig pry compromise to find a reason why and how to apply it & fix our lives.

As you Rise in the morning Light,
Do you compromise or do you fight?
Do you tell lies or do you do what’s right?
Do you apologize or do you try to justify?

When you paint a picture of your life, do you tell your story as if God was standing next to you?
I know you try to believe all the lies, even the ones you tell yourself Will you stop at nothing to make them true?
How do you do what you do when you doWhat you do when you do to me? How do you stand here & play the part as if you knew nothing of me from the start? How do you not let the lies find their death if none scene with their own eyes?

Listening to music as tears fall from my eyes;
Not so much for me, but for those lost in the darkest nights.
Consumed by oppression and Drinking deeper into depression,
Drowning, sinking, can't stop thinking
Of how it should be
And what is...... reality.
I Just know we're not alone to face our fears
Someone is out there with a listening ear
And a gentle hand to wipe our tears.

Revelations 21:4 "He will wipe every tear from your eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain for the old order of things has passed away"

So continue to pour yourself out and make room for living waters. I know that this is God's way of cleansing us from within. Embrace what's left of you and start your new journey.
