My mind turns to glass when I think of you
with a shattered idea of what I thought I knew
your grace chaotic through and through
as you create your symphony
leaving a clear view

winding paths surrender to talking trees
finally i found the cabin’s keys
I know I’ve sought this road before
free to let my spirit soar
I cannot take credit for this
heart received redemption’s kiss
I Heard God’s voice Once
In auditory Norm
His voice came through a Muse
Expressing his Freeform
Over come with astonishment
Humanity in his diction
I could not help but say to him
“This is it?! And I’m Not a Christian.”
That didn’t seem to matter
He spoke clearly his reply
“What did you expect my Love?”
“A man up in the sky?”
Tears streamed down my cheeks
That or my face was leaking
Water from my soul
Which God said he was releasing
He told me it was Me
Who caused my own torment
That he felt each breath of pain I felt
Experienced my Laments
I asked how is it possible
To be released from such travail
God said he would remove the bars
Release me from my cell
From my own Captivity
A prison built from desire
To please the world and myself too
He would set this world on Fire
A contrived view of myself
He said was my affliction
That self defeat, and people pleasing
Had become an addiction
I now don’t hear his Voice
But his message was very clear
Be Bold through iniquities
Don’t give into fear
You may only be courageous
In the midst of dread and anxiety
God told me I was free
To live the way I pleased
He seemed very confident
I’m Living the life he’s given
In exactly the way that’s meant to be
Purposeful and Sufficient
He finally begged and pleaded
I would leave my misinterpretations behind
Let go of extremities
Stop allowing self to be defined
My life is one portrait
A show of what God is
In human fleshly form
Where God lives from within
He experiences through me
all that I endure
For the pain that I have suffered
Acceptance is the cure
The treatment lays in Living
A life passionately
Not questioning every motive
And using my heart to see
I can’t stop from looking
In hopes you will see
Keep looking through you
Do you want to know me?
Want to Love you for all that you are
Are you willing to step out from afar?
Are you able to accept me in the way I’ve accepted you?
Can you take on all of me, knowing that it’s all true?
I’m no longer wondering
I know where I’m supposed to be
Have you found your place?
Do you know that it’s with me?
I know life is demanding
I know it’s filled with stress
I know that I’m the answer
De-tangle-thought mess
Within your heart we are intertwined
Was it within mine first?
Though I failed to see the line?
I know who you are
Do you want to know me?
Will we get there soon?
Will we be set free?
♑☥♑
I know he’s speaking to you
I know you hear him clear
I know his spirit guides you
I know he holds you near
I feel vibrations from him
He draws me closer through you
I feel the Love surrounding
He calls me to give in
I know he’s speaking to me
I keep my heart open
Just that I may hear
Every word he’s spoken
We cant experience the sound
But we feel the Vibration
He is the essence uniting
Perfect Creation

Though our pasts do not define me
The pictures painted clear
Reflecting where I’ve come from
Redeemed through my fears
Where depression has led
Serenity calls me now
When heartache has followed
Divinity now surrounds
Let me not forget where I’ve come from
But continue to look ahead
hears focused forward
Forged from past’s dread
The picture being painted
The portrait of each life
As diamonds forge from coal
He molds us through past strife
But two who come together
Divinities undying Flame
Two become one
Only Epic love remains
“Saudade was once described as “the love that remains” after someone is gone. Saudade is the recollection of feelings, experiences, places or events that once brought excitement, pleasure, well-being, which now triggers the senses and makes one live again. It can be described as an emptiness, like someone (e.g., one’s children, parents, sibling, grandparents, friends, pets) or something (e.g., places, things one used to do in childhood, or other activities performed in the past) that should be there in a particular moment is missing, and the individual feels this absence. It brings sad and happy feelings all together, sadness for missing and happiness for having experienced the feeling.”
Colors of fall leaves radiate
bringing warmth and brilliance
to the autumn air
Green mountains submit to colorful trees
The air brings about a feeling of comfort
in the cool dusky sky
As the sun falls behind the spectrum
Bringing about the nights air
A pungent scent of dew forms
sweet, electric to the senses
Holes poked through the canopy of night
Showing a starry view
Glimmers into ‘Heaven’
Are you peaking back at me?
Is this beauty for me to see?
As A lover showers his bride with gifts,
Have you given me the world,
In all it’s beauty,
Your eternal kiss?
Chip Cherps of critters
Cackling of trees
Senses hightened
My eyes play tricks on me
Though You see me through the stars
My eyes play tricks on me
Wishing I could feel you
Begging I could see
As the seasons change
Sooner does day become night
My eyes may see lights beauty
My souls domain is night
As easily as you have given the world
Take these crimson pieces of me
Let fates String Become Unfurled
Never lose an opportunity of seeing anything that is beautiful, for beauty is God’s handwriting — a wayside sacrament.
Welcome it in every fair face, in every fair sky, in every flower, and thank God for it as a cup of blessing.
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Never could I settle for complacency
Perhaps I’m not thinking rationally.
Are these things I’m feeling growing into something more?
something I never predicted or opened up for
Floods pouring through my heart
praying for whats right, what won’t be torn apart
Star crossed lovers, born from deathly destruction
do we form an equation? the essential function?
I know now my happiness may only come from within
Spirit inspired, relinquished of Sin
I want to shine a light, run darkness from your world…
Continue this path, let the rest unfurl..
It draws us together,
It tears us apart.
It marks the end of a beginning,
Or does it simply make it start?
Unquestionable and divine
It charts a lineage for big and small
Controlling strings that thus connect us all.
In all our lives it guides us, pushes and controls us.
For purposes and causes relatively unknown.
Inevitable and undeniable, like a statistic,
It runs my life, behind curtains of chaotic turns.
I’ve seen its face, through counting the passing days
It’s neither good nor evil, like a program.
It merely bends and shapes all things,
Into the linearity of life and the development of soul.
It makes my purpose rather clear,
And yet completely unknown if I can change it all.
Would love to release you
instead I give you power
by taking on your pain through resentment
would give anything to let you go
instead you grow stronger
as I remember what was
poison to each other is all we ever were
leaching life or lack there of
dividing up pieces to make the other whole
through addictions and chaos
we would be each others demise
now my eyes are wide open,
you remain blind
placing blame where you can
not recognizing the source
you’ll continue to fall,
rock bottom becoming your foundation
I hope the best for you
I’m letting you go
release me from your demons
allow my heart to flow
Regrets collect like old friends
Here to relive your darkest moments
I can see no way, I can see no way
And all of the ghouls come out to play
And every demon wants his pound of flesh
But I like to keep some things to myself
I like to keep my issues drawn
It’s always darkest before the dawn
And I’ve been a fool and I’ve been blind
I can never leave the past behind
I can see no way, I can see no way
I’m always dragging that horse around
Our love is questioned, such a mournful sound
Tonight I’m gonna bury that horse in the ground
So I like to keep my issues drawn
But it’s always darkest before the dawn
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
And it’s hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off, oh whoa
And I am done with my graceless heart
So tonight I’m gonna cut it out and then restart
‘Cause I like to keep my issues drawn
It’s always darkest before the dawn
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
And it’s hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off, oh whoa
And it’s hard to dance with a devil on your back
And given half the chance would I take any of it back
It’s a fine romance but it’s left me so undone
It’s always darkest before the dawn
Oh whoa, oh whoa…
And I’m damned if I do and I’m damned if I don’t
So here’s to drinks in the dark at the end of my road
And I’m ready to suffer and I’m ready to hope
It’s a shot in the dark aimed right at my throat
‘Cause looking for heaven, found the devil in me
Looking for heaven, found the devil in me
Well what the hell I’m gonna let it happen to me, yeah
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
And it’s hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off, oh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
And it’s hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off, oh whoa
Florence + The Machine
I don’t know what your purpose is, but i know someone who does.
I don’t know what your meant to do, but i know it’s inspired with love.
I don’t know what he’s saying to you, but i know you should be listening.
I don’t know how to tell you, he’s the piece your missing.
He’s waiting for you to cry out to him, broken on the floor,
You’ll shout at him “why me, why me?” and he’ll show you something more.
That tug you feel it’s on your heart, so give up your false control.
Cry out and say “Father please hear me! it’s with you that i enroll!”
I sense the fear within you, confusion whispering loud.
It’s because your standing on the brink of when glory will abound.
I don’t know what his plans are, but i know they’re better when their his.
Once you let him dwell within you, you’ll receive his graceful kiss.
Whether good or bad hold experience near, let it be guidance through lives paths and it’s fears.
Fear and darkness, blinded to whats ahead, allow yourself strength without the burden of dread.
True love is constant, always unconditional. Without judgment, true friends will reach out when you fall.
It’s up to you to open your heart, let go the unyielding pain you consume from when it was torn apart.
Ridiculous as it seems, life’s highs are the best. More powerful, less destructive than any drug you ingest.
Natural euphoria, bearing no regret. Hold on to nostalgia, incidents you could never forget.Don’t take for granted the positive things you are given. Life without happiness is a life without living.
Caught between the cross hairs
In this race I’m trying to lose
Other runners act as though
It’s the other lane I choose
I run with directive
purpose in my stride
My eyes fixed on the finish
Jesus at my side
His blood shed on the cross
while I was on his mind
He’s paid my ransom for me
No sin left behind
He lifts me when I falter
Loves me when I fight
His grace is in abundance
His wisdom brings me light
I run with directive
Purpose in my stride
My eyes fixed on you God
You’ve conquered this divide
Everything manifesting
Divinity abounds
Brings light to what seemed darkness
Showing no darkness surrounds
Intention in everything
Does not belong to me
Purpose through the senseless
Through an all encompassing key
Keep perspectives focused
on Truth and Heart
Out of these flows purity
From there we break apart
From lives we’ve believed
False blinds cast out
For you My Love, I will come through,
let my hear rest only with you.
This sleepless nights’ led to a brighter day,
as my earnest words lead from dismay.
For you My Love, my heart is yours,
the gates drawn up you’ve broke down doors.
Tainted lusts drawn from a prideful mind,
I need you love, false motives left behind.
For you My Love, my fears’ cast out,
as loves’ perfected without dread from doubt.
My heart cries out for ever questioning this,
still you draw me back with your unmerited kiss.
For you My Love, I will wait,
faithful hands have drawn out fate.
He’s drawing masterful art from me and you,
knowing in time he’ll carry us through.
For you My Love, my hearts’ made gold,
while this fire simmers my story unfolds.
All perfection is made with a cost,
as the two become one you relinquish what was lost
Your deepest desires are what will come to pass, whether they seem attainable is irreverent. Follow your bliss.
Though I feel you always
Void seems to find me in absence
Surrounded by provision
Connection is what I crave
Individuals we may be
Our souls conjoined set us free
Until the day we may physically touch
I allow memories as a crutch
