Why

 My heart still burns for thee

Though I know it can never be


Why can't my heart see that

Why can't my heart feel that

Why can't my heart just let me be

Living Dead

 

The throne of the dead is rising
Chaos is everywhere
Skeletons thought long gone
Are living once more
The world is not safe

Beasts from hell are roaming free
They nip at you
They nip at me
They want your blood
They want your soul
Your life They want to control

Demons from the underworld
Living among us today
Trying to turn us to zombies
Trying to turn us their way

Drinking Rounds

 Went 1 round with Jose Cuervo 

Smashed the glass upon the floor

Went 2 rounds with Captain Morgan 

Heck I'll go one more

Went 3 rounds with Jack Daniel 

A little dizzy in the head

Went 4 rounds with Bud

I think it's time for bed

Farmer

 My blood flows like a river

As I cut myself again

Upon the barbed fence that I fix

For the cows got out again


I chased them down

I put them back

Now the fence I fix


The sun is hot

My sweat flows

Like waves on the ocean 

The sweat rolls


Still the fence I fix

Because a farmer I be

Even if the barbed wire makes me bleed

Victory

 You fight your fights

Victory bestowed 

Even in your loses 

Still continue to glow

The Fight

 

Emotional wounds run deep
As deep as a gorge

A river of sorrow and pain
Flows like a mighty wave
Destroying everything in its path

There is light
Though far away and dim

I must live each day one at a time
Fighting my wars
Destroying my enemies
Until the battle's won

Little by little
Inch by inch
I fight
Every getting closer
To the light

Red Robin

 Red robin, red robin

Bobbing along
Doing your dance
Singing your song

Fall

 The wind is crisp

Leaves fall from the trees

Time for hayrides

Time for bonfires

Time with friends

I am Human

 I laugh though sometimes I want to die

I smile so no one sees my tears

I joke so no one knows how much pain I'm in

I am human

I want

 I want to be your moon and shine in your darkness

I want to be the fire that warms your cold heart
I want to be the waterfall that pours my love into your heart
I want to be the sunshine that helps you grow

Midnight Stroll

 

Sitting upon the beach in the middle of the night
My tears wash away with the waves
The moon shines bright
Shining upon the water

10 years have passed since my child drowned
I have returned to this beach
To honor the loss

It was a family trip
We took a boat out onto the water
A big wave hit
Rocking the boat upon the choppy waves
You fell overboard and was washed away
Before anyone of us realized what had happened

We drove the boat around for hours
But no sign of you could be found
Reluctantly we went back to the hotel for the night

When we got there
We were greeted by the coast guard
They had found you life vest
But not You

We were told that you had drowned
And somehow the vest came lose while you sank to the bottom

We thank them for looking
Then went to our room for a sleepless night
The next day we searched the beach before packing up and heading home

Every year since we come back to honor you
Your mom can sleep
I walk the beach in the middle of the night

After all these years
Still struggling to hold on
Still struggling to move on
Your loss hurt me that much

These yearly trips help
These midnight strolls upon the beach help
I miss you
I love you
No matter where you are
Never forget that

Jesus

 Jesus

With my voice I praise you

With my voice I raise you

Above all problems in my ife

Bullied

 Ugly

Worthless

Dumb

Thees words plus many others I have heard throughout my shcool life


Over the years

I have tried to lose them

Brush off such hateful words

Get on with my life

but


After all thees years the words still stick

Like static that wont come off

they build in my thoughts

Ghosts from my past

I wish they'ed leave me alone

War Drums

ill not dance to your war drums
That beat leads only to death

I will not dance
I will not slay those around me
I choose peace

I dance to my own drums
I dance to my own rythum
For there is power in it
For there is life in it

Your war drums
Your death drums
cry for blood to be spilt
Your war drums
Your death drums
Cry for murder

I will not be a part of it

Fishing

 It's getting warm ti.e to go fishing

A big bass is what I'm wishing 

Eat it at home that'd be fine

Or cook it up at a church fish fry

PRAISE HIM FOREVER

 

I was headed down a dead end street

Jesus came and rescued me

Yes, he came to save my life

He took what was wrong and made it right

 

I was about to take my own life

I couldn’t handle all this strife

Then Jesus came and brought relief

He saves my life and now I believe

 

My life had been a hurried mess

I had no chance to find some rest

Jesus came and turned things around

Now my life is safe and sound

 

When still a sinner be

You went to the cross and died for me

You went and shed your blood

My sins were lost within that crimson flood

 

Through all that time of strife and pain

All you had to do was call my name

My cares would be set free

What a wonderful savior you are for me

 

Jesus is Lord

Amen

Yes, he’s my king

I’ll praise you forever

 

Jesus is Lord

Amen

Yes, he’s my king

I will praise you forever

Jesus Sunshine

 

Jesus, I kneel praying

With a wounded broken heart

The darkness wants to overtake me

I need your Heavenly spark

 

You are my sunshine

My only sunshine

You make me happy

When skies are gray

Jesus I'll always praise you

Please don't take your sunshine away

 

The world it hatess me

Because I'm preaching your Holy word

But I will press on

To preach another

Another day upon this Earth

 

You are my sunshine

My only sunshine

You make me happy

When skies are gray

Jesus I'll always praise you

Please don't take your sunshine away

 

When the world

Grows Dark and scary

And it seems I have no friends at all

You will send your spirit

To warm my heart with your heavenly glow

 

You are my sunshine

My only sunshine

You make me happy

When skies are gray

Jesus I'll always praise you

Please don't take your sunshine away

Follow the rainbow

 Follow the rainbow

To your heart's content 

Follow the rainbow

Adventure to be had


Lands to be explored

New and exciting 

People and cultures galore 

A melting pot of life


Follow the rainbow 

Don't look back

Follow your heart's desire

Depression is

 Depression is an ocean 

Sometimes that ocean gets pretty rough


You are a ship upon that ocean

Being tossed by the waves

Having wave after wave hitting the side of your boat

That you are afraid of sinking


Live with depression long enough

You learn how to ride those waves

So you never fear sinking again
