as we neared one in the morning
(two o'clock his time),
surprised that i was still awake
i told him a little lie

"i can't fall asleep"
was my cover story,
because i didn't wanna lose
the long awaited glory

it had been over a week
since we last conversed,
so when his name lit up my screen
across my face excitement burst

the truth is i was tired
i didn't plan on staying up late,
but oh how i had missed him
as he's home in another state

less than three weeks 'til i see
this new close friend of mine,
so if you hear "i can't fall asleep"
it's probably just a sign

'tis a season for joy

a season for-
jolly good times with loved ones held dear
ornaments to display our holiday cheer
yuletide carols sung for a King so near

a season for-
jubilation found in selfless opportunities
optimistic spirits filled with generosity
young and old to gather in community

where no matter-
gender or age
culture or race
poor or wealthy
sick or healthy

no matter your circumstance
you can still choose
joy

we started out as barely friends
and now as time has passed
we've grown more than i thought we could
and now you are my first and last;

the first one on my mind when i wake
and the last one at the end of day
i can't help but wonder if maybe
you might think the same way.

i hope the thought of me
puts a smile on your face
and i hope that if true feelings exist
they will never be erased.

falling for you was unexpected
we're so different yet the same
for all the time we spend together
i pray this isn't a little game.

because i know you have so many
so many girls as friends
but is there anything that's caught your eye
to make me different?

you see i've discovered the truth
and i know how to follow my heart
i love every moment we are together
growing in fondness while we're apart.

i don't know how you feel for me
but i know how i feel about you
you've caused me to let go of silly things
and open my eyes to reality too.

my eyes are open and i see you
who you really are inside
for what you're capable of
as potential to be my partner and guide.

we could live a brilliant life
as we adventure side by side
with endless possibilities
we'll never know unless we try.
finally let go of the one i held onto for so long, because i've found a true friend who has opened my eyes.

sticks and stones may break your bones,
but they will also start fires…

the importance of fire safety isn’t taken lightly,
so please take the time to act politely.

now no offense but from one girl to another,
you’re not Adele, Sean Kingston, or the Jonas Brothers.

do not set fire to the rain that pours,
call 9-1-1 before you burn up on the dance floor.

when the heat settles in and you’re feeling dry,
to your candles and cigarettes please say goodbye.

(since those items are illegal anyways,
you’ll be fined if they are caught ablaze).

this isn’t the Upper Room where fire fell on everyone’s head
keep the Holy Spirit’s fire set in your soul instead.

ignore this advice and your world will crash,
as before your eyes Miller Hall turns to ash.
wrote this for my friends who are doing a project on fire safety at my college campus, haha.

i went down to florida
and came back with pneumonia,
maybe due to my life so busy
running and running and getting so dizzy,
always managing to stay on track
costing my sleep to be in major lack,
pushing myself past every limit
enjoying it all and never feeling timid,
but everyone said i'd eventually hit a wall
i guess they were right after all.
turns out it was actually bronchitis, oh well, haha..

i've fallen head over heels
for the tricks that you play
you've captured my heart
and tossed the key far away
i can't seem to let go
on my mind night and day
even though you're so
unworthy to stay

my heart beating
beating for Your voice
Your voice flowing
flows like a river
a rushing river
rushes into my soul
my soul overwhelmed
overwhelmed by Your love
an endless love
endlessly it chases
chases after my heart
my heart has fallen
fallen for my King
my King who reigns
reigns above the heavens and earth
the heavens and earth which He
He created in glory
glory belongs
belongs to the Creator
Creator of all
and all is what He wants
He wants from me
my everything
and everything will one day
one day bow down
bow down before the throne
the throne of my Father
a Father who outlasts
outlasts all ages
for all ages He is the rock
the rock who never fails
failure may come
come to me
i may be weak
in weakness He is stronger
His strength makes me stand
and i stand in awe
awe of who You are
and who You are is good.
