God has nothing but good things in store for us.
Give him your heart.
He wants to give you His desires,
And form your dreams into
living
breathing
art.
Captivate His heart
Jennifer Weiss Jan 2015
You are loved.
There is truth in that.
There is a God above
who doth prove that.
For wherever you are,
wherever you were at,
There is always love.
Believe, if anything,
in that.
Jennifer Weiss Apr 2015
There's a common lie in this society
They're dying to get you to believe.
That you cannot be all alone,
that just YOU is not all you need.

But there is truth in Jesus Christ,
open your mind, ye shall see.
How so ever it should happen,
we are just meant to **be.
Jennifer Weiss Oct 2014
You think
you're okay.
But trust,
you
is
not.

That's why
my whole existence
got you all
so hot.

Can't handle the heat,
of just being
an afterthought.
Continually
laughing at me
Cause I got
all that
you want.

Your perspective so
semisweet,
you made
yoself
bitter
You keep
that attitude
concrete,
Imma always
be the winner.
Go ahead,
make fun of me.
yo hate is just
a silver
lining indeed,
ya words
are just
**filler
(revised) but I won't let ya steal my happy again.
Jennifer Weiss Jun 2015
There's a purpose for your life.
If you doubt, remember a man
who denied God three times.
A man who once was Simon,
and became Peter.
A man who converted 3,000 men
into believers.
This same man denied his Christ.
He walked on water with Him
and learned the importance
of where
to keep thine eyes.
God is near to the brokenhearted.
Jennifer Weiss Oct 2014
In the world
but
not of the world
open to
insecurity
putting fear in me.
attachment
causes
reaction

you must dive in
to begin.
Life is only lived,
by experiencing it all.
within

BUT
there is importance
in these imperfect ways*
there is true beauty here
in this world of sin,
for without it
God's work
would have
no where
to begin.
lessons are never over.
Jennifer Weiss Oct 2014
If you ask the universe
for what you want.
It might be a struggle
but not for naught.
I have received
everything
which is nothing
to be bought.
The best part
in all this
is receiving that which
you needed,
resulting in want.
:)
Jennifer Weiss May 2015
God talks to me all day long
And I talk to him
And this is the way I've learned to get on.
He keeps telling me to press on
It won't last forever,
But I have to remember
Only He controls what will belong.
A world where I see you several times a week, but we don't speak...*****.
But I'm hoping it won't last long.
Because I would rather be a blatantly
desperate and in love with you friend
Than an exgirlfriend who is long gone...
I've just never found a better friend than you.
I don't think needing that is wrong.
Jennifer Weiss Sep 2017
I'm still hidden.
You've convinced me
this life is worth livin.
Out of all those taking,
I'll still be one giving.
Your life is the life
I hope they see me living.
Jennifer Weiss Jan 2015
I am not infallible.
Nor the almighty, powerful.
I am not creator
I am not better,
but I am.
And the differences lies in my believing,
what
I
**am.
Jennifer Weiss May 2015
I reached two souls tonight,
and I cannot lie.
Even if I don't get what I want,
I don't think I will mind.
I did what God called me to do,
and I feel just fine.
Jennifer Weiss May 2015
There is no prized product
without a messy birth.
No works of our Father,
that labor doesn't come first.
Jennifer Weiss May 2015
There's a misconception about
the Christian life.
That once you come to the Lord,
everything will be right.
And this is true in His light,
but that doesn't mean it will be easy
or without strife.
God loves to squeeze me,
just like a sponge
and in this squeezing he shows me
what I'm made of.
And if my eyes are open,
this can release me
from all that I have done,
that didn't appease Him,
the Lord up above.
What comes out of you in times of trouble?
Jennifer Weiss Apr 2015
I'm starting to notice something,
I'm unsure if it's true.
But when did all of my writing,
become less about me...
and more about you?
Jennifer Weiss Jun 2014
I'm trying desperately,
To write a love story.

But who would call this a "love story"?
Jennifer Weiss Oct 2014
I never thought I'd meet someone
more dramatic than me,
what a sight to see,
all that irony.
Jennifer Weiss Sep 2014
Is this a call to action?

I certainly think so,

I started as a chain reaction,

I am moving more towards ebb and flow.

I need the help of you all,

Otherwise these words have no where to go.

Without you they would fall,

dead.

Much like the nation we call home.
Jennifer Weiss Apr 2015
Oh, who am I kidding?
There's no use holding on
to what we have to let go of.
I know I can be happier.
I can be stronger.
Braver
Better.
Healthier.


But I still wouldn't be with you.
Jennifer Weiss May 2015
You were never meant
to build dams.
So what flows to you,
should flow through
you.
share the blessings.
Testify.
Jennifer Weiss Feb 2015
I believe God has a plan for my life and there is never a reason to worry.

I believe a positive attitude makes a positive life.

I believe love really is all you need.

I believe the world we live in is an illusion.

I believe in listening to my gut.

I believe in praying about everything.

I believe kindness and ugliness both spread like a disease.

I believe anything is possible.

I believe we are one.

I believe life is a cosmic joke.
Jennifer Weiss Dec 2016
It is like a well has opened up in me
I can sing of your love forever.
I can a song that's never been sung
about the Son.

The winds of Heaven are rushing at my back.
Forward we go
Forward we go.
Hallelujah

With just one look towards You.
I melt inside your peace
I am washed from impurities
I am made new again.
Jennifer Weiss Dec 2014
Everything I thought I'd ever be
Everything I thought I'd ever do
Means nothing to me,
Compared to a reality with you.
Jennifer Weiss Oct 2014
Why do I have to be so perceptive?
To those being deceptive.
It burns through my
third eye's retina
emerita
of no nebula
aware of
everything.
Failing me never.
I guess I can thank God
for having made me
so clever.
Jennifer Weiss Aug 2014
I guess they didn't hear the truth the first time-

Innocent people die.
Are beaten.
Rights violated.
By those who are supposed to protect.

That is never okay, no matter the case.
I guess you're just a **** if you walk down the street and happen to be black.

Even if you're a professor, or thirteen year old, or old man. I guess the victim shouldn't ask for it..,right.
Jennifer Weiss Sep 2014
I agree wholeheartedly
be who you wanna be.
But is that who
I outta be?

Is there a prophecy?
Will anybody
be proud of me?

Cause I can't rely on self.
If I'm looking to feel
satisfied, I am
of no help.

Always hungry.
If ambition is my bread,
then what is the
lunch meat?
Jennifer Weiss Oct 2014
I have never felt more free
Than when I dared to be
Only what I want to see.
Pardon me,
If you don't believe.
I hope you'll achieve
Some piece of relief
From the plague
Of believing
that Human beings
Can't be
happy.
Jennifer Weiss Aug 2014
When you don't know why

A songbird sings,
A church bell rings,
A country accepts kings,
A flower waits for springs,
A child loves the swings,
A musician plucks strings,
A rich woman is in love with her things,

I guess it all can seem to sting....
for the misunderstood.
Jennifer Weiss Aug 2014
Everyone needs someone to believe
They're still a good person
When they no longer can.

The doubts creep in cause I can't sleep,
Cause you're no longer next to me,
So who's there to tell me I am.
Jennifer Weiss Oct 2014
The sun
will always shine
on those
who look up
from time to time.
Jennifer Weiss Apr 2014
I can't sit anywhere and not drown out the people
But I turn the beats down just enough to judge whether or not they evil
Why does everything I hear in real life
Go inside my ears and get processed as a sound bite?
How can I know I'm wrong, yet I'm still right?
How these people keep befriending me, but when I contemplated IT I was all alone that night.
Why can God be the only one to judge us?
As your role model snorts ******* off a lost girl's *** in the back of his tour bus.
I thought I already lost everything.
So Sam-I-Am, told me again
Not a fan of H.A.M.
Cause he already tried it.
I denied it.
I don't really own anything, cause one day you wake up and everything isn't enough
You need more (do more), wanna buy more stuff
If I believe what I say I really do
How come everytime I go technocamping I feel like my life is just something I move through?
Why does a retweet make me feel important?
Is a Who still a Who if there is no Horton?
Madness, like the only hat I own is the one you left inside my home
Right before you left me forever alone, so not technically a hatter
No patience for useless, polite chatter
Because I think so much ****, when it comes out I like it to actually matter
I question myself into oblivion
Jack Harper, I'm the hero though I'm part of a whole destorying the home we're living on.
I know I just need to be hapy.
Telling my thoughts to shut up because the lines read too sappy.
I have never been a romantic out loud,
And the truest part of me failed to bloom when you left the sky with just clouds
You were the sunshine, can you understand now?
Cause I'm cryptic, normally optimistic
Threw my pessimism under ornately beautiful shrouds
You should have loved me when I made it impossible
We'd be together today, I'd be okay
But your happiness not probable
Now this goes back to the first line,
I stopped listening cause I fear what they'll do to me in time.
Jennifer Weiss Mar 2015
Insanity...
How do we know?
I think I can feel it come,
I think I have felt it go.
Jennifer Weiss Apr 2015
Restoring relationships isn't easy,
but is made possible through the grace of God.
I learned this for the first time today,
Something I once dreamed impossible...
It just seems so odd.
How everything is revealed to me
exactly when it should be.
Like God shone a light on me,
and suddenly I can see.
Like there is no better time for me,
than what His will be.
I will live like this always,
and it seems like nothing before this
was ever exciting enough to me.
Jennifer Weiss Jul 2015
Our God is Lord
who can do ALL things.
He can take your broken heart
and give it angel's wings.
He can lift your weary head
and give you strength to
hold it high.
Meet all of this life's demands
and keep you safe and nigh.
I've seen His works dumbfound
and amaze, bringing joy through
the night.
God will never give you away,
or let you leave His sight.
What will you do
for this unending love
today?
Jennifer Weiss Sep 2014
Does any of the **** I do matter?
Type.
Type.
"      ".
More useless chatter.
More problems on a silver platter.
Type.
Type.
...
At least I'm a "poet" right?
Jennifer Weiss Nov 2014
Well if you're wanting honest,
sometimes I know it all.

I have said it before,
and with this, they will surely have a ball.

But here's another truth.
I know nothing at all

Blame it on my worldly youth,
certainly not the alcohol.

I have persisted in being right,
but self-righteous? I ain't that type.

Hollywood smile, and a body to match
Seemingly lovely, but there's certainly a catch.

Watch your sins and thy evil back.
I am of light, and in fact,
I am coming for atonement
of those opponents who lack
grace and love behind their backs

I AM SEEKING.
dethronement,in the form of modern day locust.
A plague on your houses, as I focus
on what you hide out of sight.
**I find my best days
come after ridding the world
of the longest and darkest nights.
Forgiveness is always an option....
Jennifer Weiss Jan 2015
Matrimony
sounds oh so phony,
but I cannot wait
for a phony life
with you.

The children we'll have,
the houses we'll inhabit,
all of this now tangible
once we say, "I do."

And I'm terrified inside,
this is normally around the time
I'd try and hide
but there's no desire
when I look upon you.

For whenever I come undone,
having the desire to madly run,
there is only one
you
whom I would run to.
Jennifer Weiss May 2015
I worship while I wait.
I serve while I wait.
I cry whilst I wait.
And I pray to take the pain away, while I wait.
I get impatient while I wait.
I fear while I wait.
I regret while I wait.
And I remember to live while I wait.
I love while I wait.
I trust while I wait.
I listen while I wait.
And I remember to focus on only the good, while I wait.
But all these things never make me forget...
I'm still waiting.
Jennifer Weiss Apr 2015
I think there's a secret on the sidewalks,
where the broken become healed.
Where the riders meet one another,
and learn how to feel.

I learned something on the sidewalks,
not a bad thing in sight.
Then I saw a sign from the heavens,
and you left my sight.

I continued on the sidewalks,
riding my blues away.
Holding on with just one hand,
singing the words of Jhene.

Should I be wading,
the rest of my days?
If I see you tomorrow...
will you still love me?
Or just walk away?
it's okay.
it's always okay.
Jennifer Weiss Jun 2015
I guess I get unimpressed
by most of which I read.
Even my own writings,
knowing fully how that seems.
A bit depressing to hear these tidings,
that tug gently at my seams.
Misery always seems inviting
on this side of the screen.
Where is the romance in delighting
of life and all its wonderful dreams?  
Am I the only one to get excited
at things I cannot see?
I cannot be the only one to share
what I believe.
I promise more awaits you than
lusting over sorrow
and feeling in between.
I dare you to live.
Jennifer Weiss Aug 2015
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.
Jennifer Weiss Jun 2014
If you want it,
it will be

Try your destiny on,
When it fits, you will **see
Every poem of mine before this point, was written by someone else. If you can't understand that yet, keep digging. It isn't a mystery. The words are all there for you. Form your own opinions.
Jennifer Weiss Sep 2014
If you were my friend then,
you are my friend now.
Don't get so wrapped up,
in the why or how.
If I can't be there for you,
Or you can't be there for me.
Take comfort in the fact
we need no apologies.
My friend, find a way somehow.
There is no then or when,
just a chance to try again now.
Okay, I literally wrote this while washing my hands haha
But I am addicted to the word play!
Jennifer Weiss Jul 2015
Sometimes I wonder
why it ever took me so long,
to reach toward the beauty of God
and learn to love.
How did I ever get along?

Memories of a broken world
dance across the screens of my mind.
It is me,
a completely different girl
crying, broken
wasting all my time.

But I don't linger there long.
No, I have learned to leave that
which once was far behind.
I now see what He beautifully
reveals to me in the movies
of my mind.
Jennifer Weiss Jun 2014
What happens to a flower when you choose not to water it? It dies.

*I was just hoping instead of dehydration, we could find some way to compromise.
Jennifer Weiss Sep 2014
I'm swimming in an ocean,
far out to sea.
I've lost all magic potions,
to help me just be.
And when I'm scared
I close my eyes.
I picture a time when
everything is going right.
And...suddenly...I...see...

**Everything I could want, I will already be.
This catchy tune stuck in my head over some hummus.
Jennifer Weiss Aug 2014
You are building your story one day at a time.
It is up to you, if you want
                       that story to rhyme.
It is up to you, if you want
                      to fill it with lines,
That make all the sense in the world,
                     but aren't truly your design.
It is up to you to decide how your pages are spent,
                    do you want a life of accident?
Or to accomplish a great destiny,
                    which you fully meant.
Jennifer Weiss Aug 2014
On a bench I've never sat on, absorbing a brand new view.
I wonder if listening when people tell you who they are is something I should still do.
You give me different kinds of highlights, sort of like a preview.
But will I ever know if these things are even in you?

If your hesitation resides inside your glance
Will you walk tall to show pride?
Is it in your stance?
Where is it that you hide your romance?
See a person is so complex, I fear I'll never truly know after a lifetime, much less a first glance.
Jennifer Weiss Nov 2014
All that is
lives
within what is not
Waiting to strike
when the irons are hot
Waiting to give
all that it has got
So you can be all you can be-
**or not
I am me, you are me, I am you.
Jennifer Weiss Sep 2014
My heart aches when I think,
About the regret I have for every blink,
Because I hate to miss a second of this beautiful planet.
So few share my view, but it's right there- how do you not understand it?
The beauty in every messy, ugly flaw.
The song in every squawk of the crow's caw.
The ever changing painting of the sky.
So beautiful, and we're all so undeserving I can never understand why
So many of you won't give true understanding a try .
Jennifer Weiss Mar 2015
The worst feeling in the world
is not being able to do anything
to stop all your hurting
to stop all your pain,
because I am the source of both
which means my existence is in vain.

How do I stop this negative chatter
you have fed into my brain?
Ask me what is the matter,
I don't know if I have the energy to even complain.
I want to float away on the breeze
of effortlessness
and happy gain.
But I fear that is gone forever,
and we will never be the same.
