Death is
The eternal silence
We often say under this sky
Where the enemies are ubiquitous
I wasn’t there in the Garden
Didn’t see when He died for my pardon
Wasn’t there when he sweated drops of blood
Oh how His heart must have been tugged
**************************
I didn't see the disciples dismay
The Lord God is my refuge
Protects me from sins deluge
Offers me His protection
From attacks in any direction
**********************
The Lord GOD is my Fortress
Loved me even when I felt worthless
Calvary, calvary, calvary
Gave His only progeny
What a great love for humanity
That bought us back - God's property.
Calvary, calvary, calvary
Calvary took all the misery
How the hell are you so blind?
Yes I'm the Devil in disguise
Ask the God you love so much
If I am worth his saving touch
Ask the spirits that I see
If they will ever, ever leave
We question the origin of things and look for scientific explanations
To justify and provide reasons to the start of our nation
It comes down to a significant simple story of creation
You don’t know how you plucked my heart like a rose and it skipped a beat as you
whispered the sweetness of sonnets.
The Light offered to a dark world, the Light who has come into my heart
The Light who's wounded hands that were pierced by nails has the power to move the mountains
I hold a wounded Christ,
or so legend says,
within this fragile sand dollar -
five punctures - hands, feet, side
no blood or gore to disturb me
but a gentle reminder
of his sacrifice
Today I Lift my eyes to new & exciting ventures. I ventured to say, they all Rock & Win like a cup of potential.Today I win at everything I form & mention.And all goes well as I say, it's just that simple. 'Found this place while I was
Though I was a sinner
but now a believer
Jesus my Redeemer and
my only baptizer.
It’s not by my righteousness
I received forgiveness
because He was selfless and though blameless
The Lord said, "Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Ill use the love letters you wrote me to fuel the fire I light to destroy this paper house I have been living in.
What I don't understand is you,
why you are who you are
why I was chosen in the first place.
I can't figure out why you smile
or laugh
or why it brightens my day.
I can't be upset with you
My friend, to God you are close
You seem so studied
Yet behold what he finds gross
The name of His you’ve muddied
Your works splash again and again
Upon the crowded beach
A little scratch
A tiny scrape
Falling into the crevasse again
I didn't know the love of late
Could push us deeper down
But I’m broken.
And now anger overflows within me.
And I still feel lost.
Not because I still love you,
this isn't even about you anymore.
These words are a salvation
that flows from the need in my chest
through my arms
and out my flying fingertips
These words are a salvation
stemmed from the same feelings
and whirls of thought
I didn’t want to wake up. I wanted to play dead
Being blind and not even knowing it
Daily activities going through life in a daze
Running, always chasing trying not to be caught
Jesus, He is Lord of Lords and King of Kings,Jesus, He is the Son of God and God's Word is the truth of all things,Jesus, He is God
I met an important person who turned my life around,please listen to this amazing discovery I have found. He has educated me in the truth I needed to know,Daily I am guided beside the paths I ought to go.No matter the circumstances for me He find
When the land is dark
And all is lost
I strain to see
The light following me
But it is there
And always will be
That light shines
So bright, you see
Is hope
A fear that cannot be tamed
An evil that cannot be forsaken
A scream that cannot be heard
These are the demons
Who haunt us every day
Who taunt the sanctity of salvation
A wolf alone in the wood,
Not by choice but by cruel fate,
A social animal without a pack,
A mind consumed by hate.
Will you not take in the wolf?
No, of course, no one would,
When I wake up from my sleep,
I see spacious oceans so deep
And towering mountains so steep.
Is this paradise?
MANSIONS IN HEAVEN THAT IS THE BELIEVERS FUTURE ESTATE,
IT CAN BE YOURS TOO BUT YOU MUST ACCEPT JESUS CHRIST BEORE ITS TOO LATE!
IF NOT ETERNAL DAMNATION WILL FOREVER BE BEFORE YOUR EYES!
I REMEMBER BACK TO A TIME WHEN I WAS SHACKLED WITH THE HEAVY CHAINS
OF SIN,
BUT THEN I ASKED GOD TO FORGIVE ME AND I OPENED UP MY HEART AND INVITED
JESUS IN!
AND THEN THOSE HEAVY CHAINS WERE COMPLETLY LOOSED!
I was fading into the blackness of insanity
Slipping away from reality into my own fiction
Bleeding was my safe haven from the tortures of mankind
As the shadows threatened to take me away
THE BLOOD OF CHRIST REDEEMS ALL NATIONALITIES AND RACES FROM SIN!
MAKING THEM NEW CREATURES NO MATTER OF BACKGROUND OR COLOR OF SKIN!
NO MATTER THE CREED OR RELIGIOUS DENOMINATION,
ALL QUALIFY FOR ETERNAL SALVATION!
IT IS AT THE CROSS THAT IS WHERE YOU'LL FIND,
I PRAY THAT THESE WORDS ECHO IN EACH AND EVERY MIND.
THESE ARE WORDS THAT MUST NOT BE FORGOTTEN!
OUR SALVATION WAS PAID FOR BY THE DEATH OF GODS SON HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN!
WHEN A CHILD IS BORN THE MOTHER CRIES,
TEARS ARE ALSO SHED WHEN A LOVED ONE DIES.
BUT THERE IS A BIG DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO,
ONE LIFE ENDS ONE STARTS ANEW.
AND SO IT GOES WITH BIBLICAL SALVATION,
Warming myself with the cold,
Doing things that I am told,
I love this feeling of numb,
A blind, deaf and dumb,
A comfortable nothing,
No bling,
No flash,
I once was a man, so full of pride
Behind my timidity would I hide
I thought my deeds were like shimmering gold
Her Heart was a secret garden
And the walls were very high
Exotic Flowers decorated well-guarded gates
Inviting and enticing onlookers
****I am not bashing other religions but rather providing my reasoning behind choosing the Christian faith. I respect all religions and faiths and believe that everyone should believe in something. This is why I believe in Jesus Christ.
A life without love is no life to live,But a life without you now that would be sin.So for now I'll wait,And tomorrow we'll see,What the future hides for you and for me.
Society seems in a mess
Mothers cry, while Fathers stress
to be polite is a disgrace
as children mock you to your face
drugs and sex aren't hard to find
it seems as if the worlds gone blind
I walked a weary path,
Downtrodden and alone;
No friend by my side,
And nothing to call my own.
When starting out
We are like a cocoon
All wraped up in love
Blind to our surroundings
As time goes on we start to break free
We find out that our cocoon of love
Was never what it seemd
Timeless Stone
An ageless face
Carved under sunlight,
Ripened by moonlight.
A tasteless taste
Roses are red. Violets are blue. Jesus gave His life to save me and you. Accept and believe this to be true and eternity with Jesus awaits for you!
The life of light is sweet,
The still of dark is not
As I sit here and weep,
My heart begins to rot.
My life without a smile,
The life of light is sweet,
The still of dark is not
As I sit here and weep,
My heart begins to rot.
My life without a smile,
If life were perfect there would be nothing to change
Then on second thought, that makes no sense because "perfect" doesn't mean "the same"
But if that were in fact the case we'd make each moment last
A vagina is a percious jewel?
Seriously?
And what is a penis?
What is its mythical powers?
Why does a woman have to explain her sexual history,
intimacies and etc?
A veil of severed glass envokes memorial of ranging battles,
Dusk to Dawn, man to monster.
She loves him, she loves him not
Painted face, cherry lips, talc powder over truth
"Smile for yourself," She said.
Lust is a must in my generation because my generation is influencing this nation-Yes.
Because the teachers don't teach the students; The students teach the teachers.
They try to discipline us and we say we'll tell our moms,
Your out of line
And God said to get out of line.
Are you too blind?
You are no longer bound
Bound by material things!
Yet tears come to your eyes,
Cause your soul is dyed.
I wanna be close to yoy every single day
I wanna follow you every step of the way.
Your ways are ways are stright and narrow
help me discern these confusing arrows.
I sat in a dark cold room
Surrounded by my friends.
My feet shivered on the cold stone floor,
And fear filled the air.
I wanted to know why
I used to believe in 11:11 wishes,
Used to dream of midnight kisses,
I believed in these things and much more,
But all that was in a time long, long, before,
Before the boy ripped at my chest,
I wish I had the metaphors tolend description to the love of God.“A father throws his own son in front of a train…”What an inadequate thought. You threwhim from heaven to earth – no.More, he jumped.
I want to sleep...I really do. He's calling just beyond the avenue. Tight curb, love in the low life suburbs. Patiently waiting for me.Sich schminken to hide a brutally gentle tide.
My Love,
You are my heart, my joy, and my bride.
For you, I took the nails and the wound in my side.
For you, I was beaten beyond recognition.
For you, I lived knowing I’d endure crucifixion.
I can remember the day that I was saved
Inside of my heart I was totally enslaved
The devil had a complete total hold on me
And there was no way out that I could see
Nothing but a continual dark heavy night
“Eyes turning red, focus on high.
All signs of life, going black.
Pulses dropping, breathing slowing.
Creatures running in search of flesh.
Screams are heard, from the distance.
Im surrounded by familiar faces,
The choice has been made I will meet my demise,
Torture is realized, life flashing before my eyes,
I place the gun to my head as I begin to die.
Fighting the weeps of sin,
The devil has stolen from me.
Scars from self inflicted injuries,
Break the devil from my actuality.
My flaws are seen so pronounced,
But GOD believes i'm worth it.
Feeling ashamed of what i have become
Not wanting to look back to my past
running away from the only light there is
stuck in darkness and not wanting to get out
finding a savior is my only option
Welcome to the lost city, a gathering place for broken souls everyone is lonely here but that seems to be the path we were bound to go, but oh no, we will never let it show, ask us how we are doing and we will say we're good to go.
Forget not the blood I shed,
The crown of thorns placed on my head,
The nails that pierced my feet and hands,
And the prayer of forgiveness for you I said.
Forget not why I had to die
Life is hard,
it is a battlefield.
I’ve had cannons balls thrown at me,
but I kept going
wanting to make my family proud
My God, Will never leave me, He will never forsake me. He loves me like no other, He is my Bestfriend, My Father, My World, My Everything.
A Three Letter Word No one likes to talk about it yet every human being goes through it.A three letter word that sucks all your hope, making you bitter & controlled.Some begin striving for the pot of gold which slowly fades to copper while t
When the sky looks haunted and the night reeks of death
Where can one turn?
Sleepless nights and restless days of doing nothing
But feeding my endless craves
Never satiated
Here me here me ole trouble one
Thrill and passion is what you desire,
And your wants unquenchable as fire.
Allow me to give you what you seek
For it is from your heart I do speak.
Everyone wants to be set in stone
I want to be set in dirt.
Let it fill me up, Let my lips part in a thoughtless smile
As worms make their homes in my throat.
Let life replace life,
Birthed by the Earth,
God planted me here.
I've grown not much
throughout these long years.
Roots settled in,
My stalk began to rise.
As a fragile bud, though,
I turned from sunrise.
Gun in his hand with his face to sky / Ashamed of himself, he started to cry / Freak, Homo, Loser, Gay / Venom-dripped insults everyday / Nobody knows what he's feeling at night / The pain he goes through, the internal fight / Pulled the trigger,
The flesh surges under my skin
Demanding I be someone other
Demanding I seek my own pleasure
Bow to the whim of father or brother
But certainly I've done everything
I knew how to do.
My body is weak,
my mind is strong
determination will peak
at the highest throng
Pushing and weaving through the crowd
praying someone will be kind
but everyone is loud
with an unsound mind
I'm learning to trust in you,
Never giving up,
Life may bring unfortunate circumstances,
But you are always there for me,
I didn't know what love was,
Until I met you I saw that reality,
How quickly I must die
I must let go of my life.
I see all down eternity
I must let go of me.
What do I have to hold onto here?
Is there somehing more I could hold dear?
I must let go of me.
Ten
I tell you of your sin
Nine
The anguish of your Eyes
Eight
Its the thing God hates
Seven
That No good girls go to Heaven
Six
Because no good girls exist.
Five
The False One laid out his offering for the Children.
He laid out His Goods on a gilt rug at the top of a Stair.
There was His Tempter's Ambrosia
And His sweet and sleepy Perfume.
If the pain wasn’t too much to bear…I would tell the world how much I don’t care
My hair’s a joke my job is non-existent… maybe I should go get extensions
Oh Gentle Whisper
Your child weeps for his hope has died
His sky falls
An unheralded fate upon his shoulders
Inveigled by his desires
To sacrifice the little bit of freedom he has left
The emotions inside are astounding
My heart is racing, beating, pounding...
The words to say, things to do
Are right in front of you
What almost was, what could have been
Could it be? This man beside me -
Battered, bleeding, dying?
Could it be? Amid the rising jeers
This mocking crowd is crying?
Could it be? Though wails surround
Of those recanting in regret?
My Christ,
lord and savior,
reign down on me.
I just wish everyone could see ya!
And the truth to be seen!
How can I show my God,
when all i do is sin.
Ball my life up in a wad,
Jesus is my hero,
My hope,
My Heavenly Father.
Jesus is my love,
My life,
My Living Water.
Jesus is my passion,
My patience,
My Prince of Peace.
The Beautiful Torment
Why is our Lord beaten, bruised, and dying,
A whip from death and a whip from heaven
Through the twilight, the crack of the whip rings.
Tears of his children and laughter of men
God with us
God with us, I’ve heard it said before
But what does it really mean
to be with the Lord?
Mercy
I’m lost in the midst of this storm
Can some body come save me from what I’ve become
I’m lost at sea, shipwrecked upon this lonely isle
You are there for me when I am crying,
And in you I console.
You support me in my time of need,
When I require reassurance.
You comfort me in my tragedies,
When I can’t find another friend.
(poems go here)
This is a song of my heart, a letter of my soul
The stress of perfection showed upon my face as I gazed at my reflection, but I wasn't perfect. I had become a master of deception, writing lies in the book of life all to create a false perception.
Now let me start out by saying this…
God made Minute Made...- because in less than a minute, a minute was made..
I got a little bit relaxed with myself when I, weaved only a little bit of his will with a whole lot of my will.
There was a man, like you and me, who born at birth could not see.
His clothes were worn, his hair a mess, laid on the dirt when time to rest.
His food came from a coin plate that he would beg with night and day.
I'm too young to have a stressed mind
If money wasn't real we would have less crime
Cause of banks we got bodies full of hollow clips
Put the money in the bag and run like a politic
Life ain’t soft I pray in the rough
Thought I could make it without you
Thought I would be ok
Going at it alone
Started my journey out into the world
But things got hard
With no friends or family by my side
I broke down
Accept and suffer unflinchingly, every hardship presented at hand.
Aim to avoid empty, vain, and idle talk, it only leads more into ungodliness.
Whats presented before you is patience, it's unwavering compassion
Man
Lord, can you completely take control of my mind.
I'm tired of wiriness, jealousy, and being filled with strife.
Your presence is at every turn but I continue to slide.
Faith is my way of life the only reality I'm livin
It's not a front for the world, I'm not just simply pretendin
So you can spread your lies and your doubts, but you won't be catching me slippin
We're so tired of this world and all its' evil,
Tired of the horrible and fake people
Tired of the murder, the lies, and all the pain,
Tired of the bullying, the cheating, the earthly ways
My never ending love
To stand by the challenges of your life
The attachment I give to you
The strength I see in you
We're afraid to recognize the faults
So life goes on with its deadly assaults
Getting harder and harder everyday, but suddenly it halts
Because sooner or later we unlock all the vaults
Then sense pours out
I come from love and holy words
I've memorized many lines
I am welcomed by the sound of singing
The songs I've grown-up to know
I'm going through the motions
And I don't know why.
This whole feeling is atrocious
But I can't even hide.
I'm smiling in the physical
But crying all day.
Must be something spiritual
The road is marked with sorrow,
My undeserving hollow
Heart waits for every morning,
When it wakes refreshed from its mourning
I could not imagine life without you;
Though I never see you, I know your still there.
In my heart I can feel you,
My soul aches for your loving care.
As the days go by, God continues to be my teacher...
displaying the strongest of challenges to my eye, like cheering fans on the bleachers...
Red Blood;
Shed!
Purifies Me,
Cleanses Me,
He's No Longer Dead.
Now I'm;
White As Snow!
THE CROSS!
Sometimes I feel blind, like I cannot see
But the world sees him, and also sees her
The world ignores me, and never sees me
But the world shields them, while I remain blurred.
The King is just, and justly He decrees,
To quell all offense and weigh every deed,
His righteous demands not one of us met.
Alas, under His rage I dwell in threat,
Of utter destruction; Hell opens wide,
He started as a friend,
But wasn’t in the end.
He played his part so well,
How hard it was to tell,
Of how he did deceive,
I wished that he would leave.
Freedom did I seek,
Though I was so weak...
This world gives me a feeling of starkness
So many places growing with darkness
Setting that place on fire
Cause Lord need for you is dire
It's so dark they're becoming blind
I was once lost,
Unnoticed in the crowd,
Never knew who I was,
But now I am found.
I was floating through the days
Wondering where I would go,
My soul was in a haze
But you brought me home.
What will be revealed?
What will you convey?
Will you proclaim I have followed you and your words,
Both by speaking and by action?
Will you proclaim I have broken your laws,
Used you for self-glory?
I am only human,
I have love that longs to be given
I have pain that longs to be taken
I have courage, but not enough
I have strength, but again not enough
Jesus died on that cross for me
He holds my heart within his hands
Bending, Molding, all to plan
Sometimes it hurts, but he always works.
The black is now out of my heart, leaving a hole for a new start
I feel all empty, sad and alone
This world I live in causes chaos to my soul
I am so thankful Lord, for I know You're someone I can hold.
They shut me down and say He's dead,
But why should I go off of what one man has said.
Classic is just past it
its as real as it gets no plastic
when the sky cracks it all comes down collapesin'
Misconception conception
to get a certain impression
the hard fact the admitting your wrong confession
They say i'm way too young
To find the man that is the one
If i dont find him i'm going to burst
That is why i put my God first
Your love for me is everlasting, second chances only you are casting
Seeking for love all I got was lust, as time past my heart will rust
Despite my past you are still grasping, unto me while I was still dancing
My strength is gone, so i call upon the name;
The name of He who did healings for the lame.
I think of my life, its worth, it has none;
And if it wasn't for His Blood, I would be undone.
Uncontrollably over analyzing the situation that was in front of me
Only thoughts that was in my mind was about the person that I used to be
Thee ultimate love triangle
They're three in one
We've gat the Father the Spirit and the Son
The book of Life, the crucifixion story, all written before we even begun.
Are you high?
Don't lie.
No use.
Misuse?
Misunderstood.
Miss Independent
Thought she could.
All Alone
Hold the phone.
With a new school year, a new start, but friends depart.
And we’ve led our whole lives together, but suddenly we’re taking different paths from each other.
A book of an aunt
Who no longer is here
Turn the pages
Listen
Do you hear them cry?
Torn and worn down but still prized most
This book that is broken
It tells a tale of sleeping beauty and her prince
There is something inside of
each of our
souls-
this desire
for the things
that will destroy
us.
We crave to
behave
in ways that leave
scars.
Each day that passes, each hour, every minute of every day, time slips away. However, most of us claim to have plenty of it.
Life,
So meaningless and rich,
It withers like a dying flower And yields its beauty with, Yet richer than the richest golds
And finer than the finest jewels,
I touched him and the bane of all I knew, hope to know and would ever know came alive. It felt like, atoms dancing on the backdrops of unborn galaxies, collapsing and expanding at will. Like, lungs pumping air into the windows of open souls.
