I see the ways of this world
Full of selfishness and hostility
It makes no sense to me
Why can't we just get along?
If we put aside our differences
And stop making inferences
About one another
Maybe if we stopped all the greed
We could be a world full of the freed
No more racism or rich or poor
None of the cruelty
Or and if that brutality
All of us truly equal
Then maybe the world would be better
And we could all stand together
On this planet we call home

I hope you become happy
Even make it yourself
Either from love or faith
Maybe friendship as well
No one can do it for you
People can't force it on you
It's something that's built
You have to work for it
If you don't
Then it's obviously not important enough for you
It can't be taught
And there's not a "How To" book on it
No.
You have to want it
You have to push through the bad times
Giving up isn't an option
Even if you think it is
But I don't think that's the case
Most people want happiness
And I hope you find yours

Lord please forgive me
For all that I've done
All the mistakes I have made

Lord please help me
I am lost
Show me the way

Lord please love me
I cannot love myself
I need your help

Lord please lead me
Into your arms
To feel your grace

Lord please save me
My soul is searching
Bring me to eternity

Most dreams are all the same
A bunch of colors mixed together
So that when you wake up
You don't remember it
But are still engulfed with a sense of tranquility
Except this one
A dream of a life ended too short
Of how she was sent to hell for it
The sorrow and fear that filled her soul
Oh how it pained me to watch this
Though as the dream continued a hero came
It was her Savior
He rescued her
Saving her from the land of the dead
Giving her eternal life
And bringing her to live in Heaven forever
This is based on the dream I had last night and was told to write about.

I want you
That is all
I want your kindness
And your passion
To fill me with joy
I want your voice
And your music
To lull me to peace
I want your flaws
And your mistakes
Because they make you, you
I want you to know
And I want you to feel the same way
*I just want you

Words hurt
More than anything
It can **** someone inside
All it takes is one mean thing
And every bit confidence they have
Just shatters
They start questioning themselves
Believing what you say
What you've started is a storm
That won't stop
Until its wrecked everything in its wake
It's easier just to be nice
Even if you don't like the person
No name calling or cussing people out
Don't use words like ******
Or ***** or emo
Don't call people too fat or too skinny
Remember
You don't know where they've been
Or what they're going through right now
You never know if the last thing you say
Will be the last thing they ever hear
So be careful
And choose wisely
Because in all reality
*Words can ****

I'm fine
The biggest lie ever told
I say it so often
You'd think it'd get old
But I don't want people to know
Whats really going on
It saves me the trouble
From explaining all that I've gone
Through and through
I don't mean to lie
Yet this is way easier
I'm conflicted inside
I want to let you in
On this charade I play
But you'd only judge me
And soon turn away
Just like others have
Long before you
Be honest with me
Can I trust you with truth?
