You went too far
You went too fast
you went too hard
it couldn’t last
and now you’ve passed
the memory that lasts
is how you crashed.

Now you’ve gone out of sight and out of mind
due to the odds-based blight that plagues mankind
and I wonder if it’s my right to question why
you were the type to lose your time.

The odds were considerably low
but they weren’t just for show
and took 100% of your life
we cried 100% of the night
but then the sun came up
and we went out to test our luck.

I reached for gold, sweet and bold,  
the air clutched back, refusal cold.  
Crumbs mocked my palm, dreams unmade, a bitter hunger the risk repaid.  

The feast was grand, only in thought,  
a lesson patience painfully taught.  
The biscuit fades, but risks persist,  
a ghostly allure I can't resist.

And I think ‘bout
Everything
More than just
Anything

That the universe could
Give,

Sometimes it means
Everything
Sometimes it means
Nothing

At all.

A man would give all of
Him
Just to lose most of it,
Just to get some of it back,

Or nothing

At all.

I've been wanting to set sail for a while,
but now the intensity almost frightens me.
I can feel my body breaking
under the weight of this desire.

I want to give in –
to set sail toward you,
forgetting every shore I've ever known,
taking the risk, trusting the tide.

I thought I had this in my hands,
But I cannot command
nor the wind, nor the raging sea.
I know that now, as I set sail.

To take or not to take
To change or forever be?
Never know til you take a step,
Trying better than regret.

The open window lay,
A calling to be heard,
The heart drumming to a beat,
It aches to learn.

Fear comes creeping in,
You halt and dare not sin.
You live the same,
day in and out.

Trap inside the same routine,
Too much doubt and insecurities.
You put a limit, on ability.
Believe my friend and you will see.

We need not great strength,
Wisdom or wealth.
Just a piece of courage,
Belief and help.

A leap of faith,
To trust our God
In this journey we take,
He holds us up.

He takes our hand,
And guides our hearts,
Harsh may He teach,
Like a father to his son.

He loves us so,
We need not fear,
For the journey ahead
Tis already clear,

He gave us His son,JESUS CHRIST.
Through Him there is the way,
The truth and the life.
So believe dear friends and do not die.

Though the world feels too small
but my wings still can't fathom all
The northern air sways right
but my body refuses
to lift my soul.
Shall I leave my fate
to the wind beneath
or take the plunge
in the ocean's fall.
