sweet mercy Aug 2018
I feel like I’ve suffered so much,
Sometimes I feel like it is
never enough.
This pain that I had never compares
To Yours.
How You laid Your life,
For me, yes, also for me.

My mistakes,
They let You down.
My miseries,
They break Your heart.
I was living life
As if Your love is never enough.

And all those times that I am lost
I know one day I will find my back
In your arms, I will rest
In your light, I will find grace
Everything will make sense,
Here, now, it will never be too late.

i am not sure you know how much you mean to me
when i am busy saving everyone that remembers me
i become too distracted to save myself
drowning in a pool of my own sorrow
instead of doubt, or caution
you plunged in after me
to make certain
that my head would rise above the water

when i was too busy to save myself
you did it for me
thank you
for awakening the dormant light awaiting in my soul

Éire,
The beauty of a broken land,
Where each and every man
Took up his own fight
And fought it with all his might
. I really should keep learning Gaeilge (irish language)

Step by step she's trodden on
Her jeans are stained
Her blouse is torn.
Two toes edge the crumbling cliff
She turns behind–
But alas! She slips.

And down she plummets
Down, down she falls
Her eyes are dazed
Her lips forlorn.

But as she reaches
Not one yard saved
Strong talons grasp–

To home she’s dragged.

You made me do the things I was scared to do
You pushed me hard to try new things
You let me explore the world
You give me strength all the time
You likes to see me smile and laugh
You made me feel warm when you give me hugs

I wish I know you better
I wish I have known your suffering too
I wish I get the chance to help you too
I wish you're still here
I wish I got to save you too
I wish I'm not blind to see it in your eyes

I miss you, my happy pill...
I made this because from a movie I watched.

clouds darken the sky
with their endless rain
foreboding silence
settles and blankets

yet through the despair
of those who cry woe
a brightness pours through
unabashedly

a ray of sunshine
does your dear heart hold
thank you for shining
your light down on me

your endearing warmth
melts away my doubts
like so much piled snow
making way for spring

i've known the summer
and its blazing heat
its fun adventures
for all of my life

yet your cool nature
and slow gentle winds
it incites in me
a new sense of peace
for my beloved sun.

She Writes Jun 2018
I had accepted my fate
Content with drowning
You woke me up
Made me crave life again
And just like that
You saved me
When I wasn’t looking for a savior
She Writes Jun 2018
She didn’t want to be saved
She wanted to feel safe
While she saved herself

She wasn’t waiting
for a knight in shining armor
She fought her own demons

She didn’t expect to be treated
Like a princess
She wanted to be respected like a queen
