I am ashamed;
by the words of my mouth
and the screams of my thoughts.

I am disgusted;
By my selfish desires
and ignorant cries.

Human, I am
Human, I will be
there's no escape from this reality

but still grace is around me;
still You are abundant in mercy
My very soul is dependent
on these gifts you have sent
for without them,
life's purpose becomes death

I push as if You'd let go
I neglect as if I could stand on my own
but truly
this I know,
as human as I,
dependent I will be
to a Savior
who never gives up on me

In One Single Poem
I cannot truly explain
The things I feel
For it is mostly pain

In One Single Poem
My mouth shall not speak
Of these depressing words
My heart would rather keep

In One Single Poem*
There I find myself open
But now it's too late
Cause my heart is what you've broken

She is temporary
passed on like soup on the table
by arrogant souls
who know nothing but greed

She is temporary
like a green leaf in the summer
getting colder by December
until it hits the fall

She is temporary
like the happiness you choose to feel
or the darkness you consume
and decide to never let go off

**But her love is everlasting,
and faith is forever growing
with blossoms never wilting
and her words always empowering

You were that star
I wished on every night
You were that star
In the darkest of times
You were that star
In the constellation of my mind
But stars fall
And that's what happened to *you

At 12 pm
a midst silence
a sudden realization
a sudden recognition
sparked from me to you
I would like to thank you
for teaching me
to forgive the unforgivable
to love the hateful
and to share with the greed
You've always told me
how much you loved me
and I knew it
but knowing is nothing
compared to understanding
And when the time came
I understood it
I understood it so well
that I started to see
every little thing you do
just to make me happy
I know there are times you'd wish
to go back and change things in the past
for maybe you could've taken a better path
but your mistakes led to this day
that I'm oh so thankful for
I wouldn't want anything to change
Your selflessness gives me inspiration
to keep striving to be a better person
I wouldn't have asked for anyone better
to serve as my father but you
You told me how
you and mom were a match
but when pride came
it was all too heavy to catch
and save, so it fell.
Then you met a girl
who taught you
how to become a better person
and accepted you with all her heart
and gave you two little boys
who is now a part of the love you give
The love that never failed to put a smile on my face
the love who put me to bed in my toddler days
I'm never good at showing the things I feel
but believe me when I tell you
everything in this poem's real
with the most purest of intentions
to say I love you from head to heel
