I walked by you today, you never even said hey, the look on your face..disgust, distaste
How did we get here, where'd we go wrong, I'm forgetting your smile, its been too long
Just a quick glimpse, no time for conversation, What we used to be now needs resuscitation
You're a snake in the grass, on a totally different path, Those once strong hands need to get a firmer grasp
On the truth that was reality, now hidden, so lost. Hows empty workin out for ya, seems a heavy cost
Maybe tomorrow will be different, maybe something to draw nearer, But today, all I can I say is, I hate you mirror.

Man like me

How is this possible, how can this be.....all consuming love, reigned down upon me
Acceptance without conditions....puts a bend to my knees
This thought keeps on coming...within His grasp yet I am free


Oh, why does He love me, how can it be
You're never changing, yeah, You are my King
I'm lost for the words, they're escaping
You chose a man, a man like me


I came when You called, but turned my own way....yet You're still behind me, every step of the way
Not trailing in my path, still leading me down...the road less traveled, that turns me back around
Now I can't help but wonder, my insecurites....make me ask the question, why a man like me


Oh, why does He love me, how can it be
You're never changing, yeah, You are my King
I'm lost for the words, they're escaping
You chose a man, a man like me

There's something in me

Something's there

I'm not quite sure

A normal, blank stare

I want to love

I don't know how

Deceived you before

Want another chance now

I messed it all up

It was set in stone

Wonder if my prayers

Still reach God on His throne

I led myself on

Thinking I could pull through

I don't know any answers, I was wondering

Do you ??

I wrote this back when I was 16 years old, in high school. I was dealing with the cold, hard fact that I wasn't a very good "voice" for what I believe in....

THE WITNESS ??

I see you pain

I know your name

I know the Way

Can't find what to say

Could it be I'm afraid

To tell you He laid

His life down, for you and for me

Broken and bare, nailed to a tree

Cried the tears, felt our shame

And I'm too scared to tell you His name.

Jesus!! I cry for His help,

But no one can see what my mind just felt...

You walk away, I think it's too late

I blew my chance to see you at the gate

My mind slips away like hour glass sands

What can I do, your blood is on my hands.

Lord, help me.

TIME

The gift we've all been given
Cannot ask for more
When it ends, so does the living
Like waves upon the shore
Slowly washing breath away
Consumes us to the core


When its gone, its gone
No way to replace it
Every new day
Wake up to face it


Time will go on
With or without us, slipping away
wasting away
Will it be well spent
Or on our own selfish gains

What do we have to show
From our lives lived on this earth
Will we make the best of time, or will it run out first

I AM INTERNET LITERATE !!!

So I finally caught up to the rest of the world and made my facebook and blogspot accounts...I figured that I'm entirely too interesting for more people not to know about me. :)
So you'll probably find lots of my writings in here...some regular poetry and some work-in-progress songs (might be easier if I actually knew how to compose/sing/play)
