I saw you the other day
but you didn't notice me
when life becomes more
then you thought it was

Into and through your eyes
weaving in and out
all eyes on the road you said
all eyes on the road again

I couldn't imagine ever going at it
all alone without you
and now my numbers are down to one
face your fears you said,  stand tall
STAND TALL

We can all just smile now
the figure head has gone
temper and relief
in dreamland

I choose the unknown
I'll walk the path with blind eye
my love, my love
I left you to the void
I left you for dead
Now it is i
I am dead inside
I am sorry
it means little to nothing
but I am so very sorry

There's an ache in me,
there is a need...
For my Savior to come,
Oh Lord, come and rescue me.
I am following your ways,
but I follow on knees that are weak.
They buckle and I tremble,
Lord, I pray you remember me.

I know I'm not forgotten,
but there's an enemy near to me.
Shouting lies that are louder than
your gentle voice.
Lord I need a helper,
Lord I need to be set free.
There is hell here on Earth,
but Lord, thank you that this
is the only hell I'll ever see.
You give grace, I get mercy...that's the Father that you are.

To the girl denying her heart,
I can hear you dying.
I can hear the terror inside your bones.
When you cry because he isn't calling.
Because you know inside yourself,
he is not going to love you like you deserve,
but you'll give yourself to him regardless.

To the girl who didn't wait,
but desires to things the right way this time.
I am you.
I feel your heart.
I hear your insecurities and your hesitations.
I hear your trepidation,
"Could I really be deserving of a love like that?"
And the answer is yes.
My dear, you deserve God's best.
And you can have it when you tell the Lord,
"Yes!"
to all His plans.

To the girl reading this with half of a heart.
I know you too, I once sat where you are.
I was once dead, and you might not be yet.
But the more you deny yourself and conform
to what they tell you to be,
the more you will have to regret.
God loves each and every one of us. So much so that if you were the only person born in this world, he still would have left heaven and came to Earth as Jesus to die on the cross just for you.

Lord Byron
When we two parted
In silence and tears,
Half broken-hearted,
To sever for years,
Pale grew thy cheek and cold,
Colder thy kiss;
Truly that hour foretold
Sorrow to this.

The dew of the morning
Sank chill on my brow—
It felt like the warning
Of what I feel now.
Thy vows are all broken,
And light is thy fame:
I hear thy name spoken,
And share in its shame.

They name thee before me,
A knell to mine ear;
A shudder comes o’er me—
Why wert thou so dear?
They know not I knew thee,
Who knew thee too well:—
Long, long shall I rue thee
Too deeply to tell.

In secret we met—
In silence I grieve
That thy heart could forget,
Thy spirit deceive.
If I should meet thee
After long years,
How should I greet thee?—
With silence and tears.

There's a truth I learned recently
that has come and set me free.
I am always connected to you
through Jesus Christ
who lives in *me.

I never think anymore
that I know everything.
I just pray my God  speaks
according to His timing.
I just pray I move
when He calls me.
Lord, use my every word
to exalt thee.
Fill me with your presence
Fill me with your goodness.
Fill me with your sweetness,
Lord these things I pray.
Make me more like you
every day.
