I weave words into tapestries. I believe that if you can capture something real -- light a fire in someone's soul, keep one shining moment in stasis for eternity -- then you will never truly be lost. It is in words that we are found and in words that we may find company in the dark.
A prayer is like a Melody
without it there's no harmony. . .
you can go sharp or flat
and lose something you once had. . .
Let notes of GOD be your choice
and make music instead of noise. . .
Through this melody you can speak
and he will listen without a peek. . .
It can be done in many ways
like singing in to praise
Or chanting with eyes that glaze
because spirit and soul engage. . .
Please hold on my friend
all our problems will soon end. . .
Don't fill your heart with worry
for the hand that hold us, is HOLY.

a nagging blanket of
blame
tucks me into bed every
single night
dreading walking into
doors i've known for years
because life was better
back then
it's hard to pinpoint
the exact moment
when home became a house
but i think it's the day
i lost the ability
to know who i was
on my own
and that was a long time ago

I never realized that when they say,
"All dreams come true if you have the courage to pursue them"
they truly mean you must have courage.
Nothing in life comes free.
You will get hurt.
There will be nights when you cry until you can't cry anymore.
People will be cruel.
Many won't have sympathy for you,
no matter what you're going through.
But you have to stay strong.
If you want to accomplish something in life,
you have to keep going.
Put those who truly don't care in your past,
keep those who honestly love you by your side.
And yes,
those who love you will hurt you sometimes too,
but you will forgive them,
and you will keep your head held high,
and you will have the courage to succeed.
Dreams take determination and bravery.
So be brave.
Don't let the world or the common mishaps of life stop you.

What do you do when everything hurts?
You cry and you cry,
and it's like your ribs,
your chest,
your head...
your whole body hurts.
You want to scream.
You want to cry out to someone.
You want SOMEONE to care.
You just want peace...
for someone to wrap you in there arms,
tell you they are there,
and for it to be the truth.
Why can't it be that simple?

Strephon kissed me in the spring,
Robin in the fall,
But Colin only looked at me
And never kissed at all.
Strephon’s kiss was lost in jest,
Robin’s lost in play,
But the kiss in Colin’s eyes
Haunts me night and day.

Stop trying to be everything you think the world wants
and just be.
And don't bluff.
Don't bluff for once in your life and just do.
Do what you know you must.
The path is clear now.
You don't need hope,
faith
or trust.
Just let go
and forget everything you know.

We sleep
So our darkest thoughts
Can be passed off
As nightmares

We hide our
True selves
In the big, wide world.
But feel free
In these dark corners
To empty our hearts.
Tell those
most important
That life's all good
And confess
To these strangers
Our true thoughts.
Don't get me wrong,
I see no harm
In what we do.
*But which of
Our poetical faces
Tells lies
And which
Speaks true*.

Happiness
A drug with no negative side effects.
A drug that is free for all,
and
legal for all.
That affects all.
Happiness is not a disease.
It is not a plague.
It does not hurt.
It does not scar.
It does not need a vaccination.
It is a simple state of being where one is at peace of mind.
Happiness is:
Verbal,
Physical,
and
Mental.
Happiness is healthy.
So smile.
Live happily.
