There is pain
Confusing
Anger
The world
Can be messy
Sometimes
It can seem
Like the world
Has gone crazy
Its easy to focus on
All the things
That are going
Wrong
Living pessimistically
Instead of looking
Seeing all
The beauty
That is all
Around us
We live in
A beautiful world
Even as far
As things have gotten
We still live
In a beautiful place
Even as crazy as thing
Might seem
There are still people
Who are living
And showing people
What love really means
There are still people
Helping people heal
Showing people kindness
Grace
Mercy
Showing people
How to love
One heart
At a time
There is still
Healing
We are never
Too far away
To receive it
We just have to
Start looking
And finding the beauty
Instead of always
Seeing the negative
Living pessimistically
And start seeing
Things
In a different way

Rise up my friend
The battle is not over
Rise my friend
Take your place
We all can receive
The healing
We all can receive
The grace
We can all take
Our places
Taking our places
In the sun
Rise up
Even when
You are low
There is never
Anything
That you can not
Accomplish
Rise up
Have faith
If you do
God will
Always
See his
Children
Through
Rising above the storm
Rising above life
Rising above everything
Rising above the world
Rise my friend
I know you can rise
Rise above it all
So you can
Take your place
In the sun

I pray for the ones.
That are out on the street
I pray for the ones
Who I love
Who I know
Are going though
Tough times
I pray for our mother
I pray for our father
To rain down his love
Rain it on the world
So that all people
Might see your grace
So that all people might see
Just how wonderful
Beautiful
And magnificent
You truly are
Blessing
And healing
All who will believe
And receive.

Life is simple
We live and we die
What matters the most
Is what we do along the way
Its the lessons we learned
Its the people we have touched
The lives we have saved along the way
Living and dying
Loving and growing day by day
Until we return back home
Ahmad Cox Aug 2012
The most quintessential thing in life
Is to live
We put up so many block
So many barriers
That keep us from
Truly living
We need to be able
To understand
Life is a precious gift
We shouldn't take our lives for granted
We should be living our lives
without fear
Without barriers
Learning to live and to learn
Along the way

Dwelling here
Can be hard
Life has a way
Of sneaking up on you
When you least expect it
But every once in a while
A little joy comes
To make it all worth while

The final hour
Of the final day
Is never too far away
Our lives are fragile
We need to be more aware
Of the amazing miracle
That is life itself
If we were more reverent to life
And the beautiful wonderful
World that we lived in
We couldn't even imagine
Harming each other
Or harming another thing
We would understand
And comprehend
That every life is precious
Every life is fragile
And yet life is strong
Even in its fragility
Just when you think
You have got a hold on it
Life has a way of surprising you
