Out of Body

I stood next to myself

I could not help but have compassion on what was left of me

Curled in fetal position in the corner

Skin darkened by breathlessness

I stood next to myself shining

I could not help but feel some pain

For what was

But this is now

In Him I live

Heart Distance

you can be in the same room but a million miles away

you can be a million miles away and be as close as ever

the only thing that matters is the heart distance

Hearts are Trees

Hearts are Trees

Hearts are not cloth, repaired with needle and thread

to be as they were

Hearts are trees, guided by wind and force

to be as they are

If I Must Go

I hope it won’t be soon

But if I must go

I want you all to know how deeply I held you in my heart

I will not remember anything else

I will not regret the past

But savor every moment I spent with you

I can’t bear to think of you going through that loss

The loss we all go through at one time or another

Be comforted by every moment we took the time to show we loved each other

These remain

Release the discomforting times, they are no more forever

In so many ways, like a laugh, a tear, a joke, a kind word

A sharing of your feelings, a shared walk, a shared glance

These memories you have given to me sustain me now

May they sustain you then

For I have deeply loved you all

And I always will

Even when I must go

Walking On Water

It takes no less faith to keep going in life than it did for Peter to walk on water…

ok Jesus, I’ve got my eyes on You and I’m getting out of the boat now

All Nighter

staying up all night won’t bring you back

Scattered

I walk along a scattered shore

Only bits and pieces of shells, nothing whole

rubble really

but broken things have their own beauty

 

Don’t Suffer

When wave after wave hits

When you recover

Learn to leave the suffering alone

People who love you need your smile

And though you dont know it yet, you need it too

In 100 Years

If we all hold on to God, we will be together

No one will ever separate us again then, not even ourselves

100 years is a short time to wait for eternity

I’m Glad You Found Your Tomorrow

Tomorrow

Out of Eden

There are times in our lives
When we all feel inside
Something’s wrong, there’s gotta be
Something better for me
So we try on our own
To change our paths
But we don’t realize that joy comes after rain
And Life begins again

Tomorrow
Is a better day
Tomorrow
You will see the way
When God is by your side to stay
Just keep on movin’, don’t you dare give up

There are times, times we
Can be swayed so easily
Doubt can come in my mind
And I’m ready to give up this time
But I’ve got to keep on goin’, got to keep on movin’
Got to keep on pressing it through
‘Cause I know my God is able, oh He’s more than able
It’s no thing to take care of you, I say

He knows of everything you’re goin’ though
Has enough love to take good care of you
You know exactly what you need to do
So just keep movin’, don’t you dare give up
He knows of everything you’re goin’ though
Has enough love to take good care of you
You know exactly what you need to do
So just keep movin’
