When Love and Hate Collide
Oh selfish heart how can you lie / you love me then say good-bye / I wonder the wisdom in your choice's of life

Renewed
I had lost faith in where I was supposed to be / I felt I was at my end, my limitation. / I had lost what I most treasured in life.

betrayed
The pain felt because of pride and the need to be superior / To revenge some wrong percieved is not right no matter how turned or explained / If you can't be supportive you are not needed so move on

Raindrops
The rain falls harder then it had before transporting me back to a prior point in my timeline. / to thoughts of a past I had forgot and a me that was free of the bonds of responsibility a time of innocence. When the future was not considered and the now was all I knew, the thought of family and love were giants off in the distance. As the rain brings these memories rushing into my mind, I am wrap myself in them like a warm blanket on a cold winter night. / The lightening and thunder snaps me back to the now that I currently occupy, further from where I was closer to where I want to be. My past fondly remembered and my future in sight not knowing where or how to get there but enjoying the ride and the partner God gave me to finish this journey.

Ironic
The morning sun trickles through the curtains as a reminder of another day begins / finding the rhythm of life an echo of days past, just a picture out of time unable to break the / cycle of days leading to the recycling of moments of prior.

Why must this take so long
Why does death elude me / does it no longer hunt me like a lion to it's pray / the sweet sleep is so far away, outside of grasp.

Forgiveness
Shall I freely forgive a betrayal of love / Do i forget the whimsical way you sought another / Will the taste of disgust ever be removed from my memory's

Loss
Loss of love with slow unintentional barbs and pokes / I have failed to nourish and cherish the love I have been blessed with / A lie no matter how small is a lie, why is the truth so hard to face so elusive to the conversation.

When it rains it pours
Have you ever noticed life is a repetitive set of circumstances / one follows the other, with what seems to be a never ending / path of destruction, or blessing.

What the Hell
From a distance I can see everything that happens around me / from up in my tower I sit so high feeling protected from your prying eye / I see things that make no sense children in chaos and parents with no power
