I watch people in the world
Throw away their lives lusting after things,
Never able to satisfy their desires,
Falling into deeper despair
And torturing themselves.
Even if they get what they want
How long will they be able to enjoy it?
For one heavenly pleasure
They suffer ten torments of hell,
Binding themselves more firmly to the grindstone.
Such people are like monkeys
Frantically grasping for the moon in the water
And then falling into a whirlpool.
How endlessly those caught up in the floating world suffer.
Despite myself, I fret over them all night
And cannot staunch my flow of tears.
Humans create lines
Create, live, and die by them
Nature doesn't care
We eagerly ****
Those wearing different colours
It's stupidity
Listen to the sounds:
Drums mark time on march to war.
Manufactured fears.
Willing to risk all,
Desperate people seek refuge.
We'd rather they die.
Dedicated to the 300 people who have recently died in the Mediterranean as well as the many more who have died to cross the Rio Bravo.  They were willing to give up their lives as they knew it, in hopes of a better future. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-31414009
I.
Lord, am I still worthy,
To continue on this journey?
If everyday I still can see,
The old me.
A sinful lady.
My ghost, it haunts me.
That I fell to my knees.
How I feel so empty.

You.
My child, can't you still not see?
You are special for you belong to me.
I shed my blood so that you'll be free
From your past, bondages of sin.
So just continue your battle with me.
Just believe..
"My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in your weakness."

I.
Will fear no more, for You are all I can see.
The look of grace.
Unfailing love.
Forever I'll be thankful,
For it is you who found me.
"Therefore, I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that
Christ's power may rest on me."
This is the love I have found
And in this love I am found.
