In the midst of nothing, you bring babies into life.
In the midst of sorrow, you bring out of me Joy.
In the midst of being broke, you give me wealth.
In the midst of pain, you give unto me healing.
For you are the Living Word, you speak life.
Into situations, people, and you give life to us all.
When we are feeling dead or empty inside ourselves.
We draw close to you repent and ask you for healing.
Then you begin speaking Life in to each of your people.
For you are the Living Word, whom speak life into us.
Did you know that I
lay awake at night
looking through the curtains
that you opened
as the moonlight spills in
and amplifies
the sounds of our home
settling around us
as you snore
and warm me with
your body heat?

Did you know that I
have a scratchy throat
when we wake up
early and that
I drink my morning coffee
because it soothes
the ache and not
because I have to
have it?

Did you know that I
love you so much that
I leave the curtain open
even on the mornings
when the sunlight
wakes me up and
burns my throat and
I know we don't have
any coffee cream?
What do you not know?
I don't know.
Who are the people you don't know?
I don't know.
I don't know what I don't know, okay?
I don't know about everything, or anything.
I don't know what to write about to make it "original"
I don't know how to get a tight knot out.
I don't know what's hidden behind the curtain sometimes.
I just
Don't
Know...
It's okay to not know sometimes, right?

I constantly crave the worst things for me
And I always give in
Its too tempting to taste something I used to know
Because lately
I feel like I don't know anything
I'm so lost
I constantly crave to feel at home.

I wake with you
Lingering
Your dream still
Warm
In my bed
Your kiss still
Haunting
My mouth
Hungry
For more
Of the sweet
Taste
Of your
Love
I've never
Had
But need
More
My heart
Gone
My chest
Full
Overflowing
With
Pictures of
You
I hear
Madness
Spreading
Consuming
Me whole
Monsters
Dancing
The devil
Laughing
My soul
Sold
Without
You
My heart
Will never
Return
Home
It has
Devoted
Its beating
For you
All of
Its dreams
And
All of its
Blood
I lost it
To the
Fires
Of your
Heart
The
Compassion
That dances
In your
Words
The hypnotic
Allure of
Your voice
And
All the
Endless
Beauty
Of you
Take time to breathe and live for the day
make dreams to wash nightmares away
let go of all the worries of today
find the rainbow hidden behind the rain
let peace in your heart to ease the pain
and all good things will come your way

Slow down and take the time to look around
there's so much more still to be found
listen to the silence of a broken sound
and you will hear what is inside of you speak

Remain strong even when you feel weak
always ride with the wind
and know through hard times its not the end
