#Hashtag
Avery Guenther Feb 2015
Its awful to feel like you don't belong.
You can't do this, you can't do that.
Society says being who you are is just wrong,
No matter where you're at.

"Your face is ugly."
"You aren't skinny enough."
These words come out carelessly,
but this happens in everyday stuff.
Do you ever feel as if you are "Hashtagged?" What I mean is being labeled by someone or something. Its time to overcome the weariness of being judged.

He's got a plan!
Avery Guenther Feb 2015
All I have noticed is this world falling apart,
Every time you turn on the news,
Every time a kid becomes different,
Even  if I could change it, I wouldn't know where to start.

Most people would say, "You are just a kid, you can't do anything."
But maybe I can...
I can't do much,
But I can do bit by bit.

I pray to God every night.
Having faith he'll do everything in his might.
He sent his one and only
For us to praise his glory.

He's are only way out of this madness.
Love and trust that he's got a plan,
And he will lead us in the right path
For He gives us the light through the darkness.

Be patient it might take a while,
But he's there by your side,
Holding our hands.
So take a deep breath and just smile.
God always has a plan. He's on your side. Even if you don't know the Lord, He's patiently waiting for you. He is our only satisfaction, so learn to have a relationship with him and learn to love and trust Him more than ever before.

Broken images
Avery Guenther Feb 2015
Twins of you
Face to face
Shocked to what they see.
Wandering if this could really be.

The revealing lies that they have just seen
Mad at the world
Because they have learned
This is who they have become.

They can't take no more.
Shatters all over the ground
Piece by piece
Standing and just staring

Finally realizing that it's just me.
I am my own person
And I just needed to be set free

This is Me
Avery Guenther Feb 2015
Why can't everything be right?
Everyday we make mistakes.
We will never be perfect.
I just want everything to be alright.

I go for the wrong boys.
I disrespect my parents.
I do whatever I want,
And never listen to the background noise

I think I'm never going to change,
Until finally that one day came.
I walk up to the altar
And all the sudden I feel strange.

My world will never be the same.
I have gave my life to Him,
The Man up above.
I finally feel no more shame.

I'm tempted to go back to the way I was,
But that's not who I am anymore.
I'm done feeling down.
I'm done having withdraws.

This is me!
Loving, trusting, knowing the Lord.
"He heals the broken-hearted and bandages their wounds"
Verse Psalms 147:3
Pretty much explains my life! If you have struggles and don't know who to talk to, I am right here, just message me!

The Man Above
Avery Guenther Feb 2015
Greet one another with a kiss of love
because there's this man watching from above.
This man is not flawed.
His name is God.

God watches over me and you
and God loves us no matter what we do.
He is full of forgiveness
because none of us on Earth are sinless.

Call on God on the day of trouble,
He will help with all your struggle.
Just bow you head and pray,
and start by just saying "Hey."

Do you really know?
Avery Guenther Feb 2015
Only one can really see
pain on the inside,
beauty on the out.
But how could that be?
She smiles with pride
and never seemed to have a doubt.

She is consumed by feelings.
Her home life can be rough,
no can see the beatings,
oddly enough...

On the outside she's pretty
She could honestly light the whole city.
Only one would be able to know,
how her life was, long ago.

— The End —
