The last few years there has been many times, that I wanted to give up.
That I sincerely wanted to give up here on, life is so hard here.
But it is people like you all whom are real that kept me from giving up.
From wanting to just lay down and wait for the Lord to take me.
The last three years at time, been really hard persevering here.
But Christ been really placing people in my life to encourage me.
To push me past this poor me attitude, to inspire me to not give up.
But to stand firm and know that Christ is going to strengthen me.
No matter how hard that life becomes our Savior will save us all.

Dipping our toes into darkness,
We broke but the surface,
Riding midnight waves,
Grabbing tightly at what we know,
Letting go of what we don't,
If only for but a moment,
Hidden in this place of shadow,
We collide.

I find myself reading more and more
Autobiographies
In a desperate attempt to find
Someone who feels the same pain as I do.

Never make a person your home because
One night you'll have come home later and
You're tired and it's pouring and
You're cold and shivering but
They have changed the locks.

I think I've found,
For the very first time,
It may be my head, not my heart,
Who isn't ready

All of my best poems
Are about you.

There's an odd temptation in her eye,
Lord, how I wish to catch it

How am I supposed to know what to say,
When you're so impossibly hard to read?
