Something inside
Virtuous Mar 2014
What is this inside that I feel?
A love that cannot be tamed.
A love that has raptured my heart
A love that has been there from the start
A love so beautiful and pure
A love that is so real and sure
A love that bring me confidence in who I am
I love that makes me understand
That Gods love is so real

People
Virtuous Mar 2014
Why do we treat people
Like some are worth more than others?
How long will it be before we discover
That no one is more special than another
Everyone has something that is unique to them
Tell me when will this prejudice end?

Contradiction
Virtuous Mar 2014
The honest man lied
The generous one stole
Kindness showed its evil side
Their hearts became cold
The gentle one became violent
And the faithful is not here to stay
But there is one who will always remain the same
My God who is forever true

My reality
Virtuous Mar 2014
I like to imagine a world
Where flying is no problem
And I can dance across the sky
Where my possibilities come alive
Where I can speak to all living things
And everything is more than it seems
Where music is constantly in the air
And everyone goes about life without a care

Dreams
Virtuous Mar 2014
I close my eyes
And escape to a world
Where the possibilities are endless

Distraction
Virtuous Mar 2014
What has our society come to?
That the value of face to face relationships is gone
Hiding behind the message of a text
No longer able to determine right from wrong
Living life behind a screen
Going through the motions
Failing to know all that we can be

Let it Go
Virtuous Mar 2014
Let it go
Although this is a trendy phrase
We must not deny its truth at the end of the day
Reality is we all have something to let go
Whether thats our pride or our ego
Our insecurities and doubt
Stop letting it wear you out

The Black Veiled Bride
Virtuous Mar 2014
She walks down the isle
The black veiled bride
In desperate need
To hide something inside
She will not allow the groom
To look upon her face
She fears of no mercy; no grace
There's no way to count every tear shed
Never expresses it but conceals it instead
With the heart pounding nearly out of her chest
She can't help but long for death
Fear has grasped her soul
So many things unrevealed; untold
Her long awaited husband
Begins to remove her covering
This is it, the exposure of her suffering
Her eyes met his and she felt something inside
Through the amount of compassion in his eyes
"I love you anyways" was his very words
She could hardly believe that she rightly heard
That this man saw past it all
And still chose to love her

Who You Are
Virtuous Mar 2014
What you look like isn't who you are
What you wear isn't who you are
What you do isn't who you are
What you love isn't who you are
Your mental ability isn't who you are
Your success isn't who you are
Your failure isn't who you are
Your gifts and talents aren't who you are
Your weaknesses aren't who you are
Your own personality isn't who you are
Who you are is so much deeper

The Romantic Period
Virtuous Mar 2014
Oh the Romantic period
A truly amazing era in literature
To discover oneself
To love nature divine
To see everything as sublime
To wonder about the supernatural
To not care about all things factual

Words
Virtuous Mar 2014
Stick and Stones may break bones
But words can ****
A stick might leave a scar
And a stone a bruise
But words can cut like a dagger in you
Speak positive! Speak life!

Today...
Virtuous Mar 2014
Today...
A Soul has died yet another is born
For every end a beginning is ready to soar
A season comes and fades away
Another springs forth to take the day
Somewhere out there someone is breathing their last
And another has not yet known a past

Dream Again
Virtuous Mar 2014
Why so downcast my child?
Has someone stolen your joy?
That look in your eyes breaks my heart
Your dreams have been destroyed

Don't worry for I am here
Look up to the heavens
Let me whisper something in your ear
My love for you is as strong as it could be
It's bigger and deeper than the sea

It's time for you to dream again It's time to dream
Go ahead and try it's not as hards as it seems
You may have been stripped of your childhood
You may have had to grow up to soon
But I will never leave nor forsake you

Its time to imagine the impossible
Come on now your unstoppable
Go ahead and reach for the high peak
I know that you can do it in a heartbeat

You dare to dream again
Surely this is not the end
But a new beginning
A time for singing
A time for joy

Ode to Ocean
Virtuous Mar 2014
"There is pleasure in the pathless woods, a society where none intrudes..."

Mirror Mirror
Virtuous Mar 2014
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Who is the fairest of them all?
Since when did you become the judge
The say so in vanity
I come to realize that this is all insanity
Your hair is too messy
Your eyes are too small
Will you shut up already!
Stop pointing out my so called flaws!
You are a slab of glass that screams out lies
Beauty is in the beholders eyes
My beholder is Jesus Christ
He loves me and says I'm beautiful
That's enough for me
I'm going to be all He called me to be
Mirror Mirror on the wall
I am the fairest of them all

Time is Life
Virtuous Mar 2014
Tick tock tick tock
Does time exist?
Tick tock tick tock
Is it only a myth?

Day by day
Hour by hour
Where does it all go?
If you were to find out
It would make you weep
And it would make you groan

Tick tock tick tock
How much of my life is spent?
Tick tock tick tock
What am I to do with the rest?

Next year came to quickly
Tomorrow won't come soon enough
Time is flying by swiftly
It's too late to make up for some stuff

Yesterday feels like forever ago
And last year feels like yesterday
Time is a confusing concept

It can't be comprehended
By our senses and sight
So I come to the conclusion that
Time is life

— The End —
