#steadfast
The anchor to my soul
Waves crash and break
Thy steadfast love holds true
Light expose sheer darkness
Amidst fog and present gloom
Glimpse a shine beckons yonder
Tears stream, I seek thy gleaming light
Ignite the depths, disrupts the night
Salvation be nigh, surviving the fight

Your love is steady, soft, and true,
A warmth that glows in golden hue.
Like tides that kiss the waiting shore,
You hold me close, then love me more.
Through raging winds and endless night,
You are my calm, my guiding light.
Not fleeting sparks, but steadfast glow,
A fire that never dims below.
And if the stars should lose their way,
Or time should steal the light of day,
Still in your arms, I’d always be,
Forever safe, eternally.

Steadfast
Risen to done, inclined
With a times shadow, to last
Among causes sign's...
Deeds of without...
Sated by roles of history
That a common power...
Makes a chance, of life's epistolary
Crave more...
Than an impunity
To introduce a quiet war
Of a candid salvation of humanity...
Rancor and/or hunger?
Places of distrust, if not deception?
Have a song's life, long before done and gone, were...
The truth of sincerity, is means, from its inception
Taken with the might, of serendipity
Come by the ought, of better aspiration
Mere, has become my voice for liberty
Like a stone, of choices seen, I see a host's generation...

Let me tell you a story about a woman
A woman who stood still when the earth shook violently
A woman who didn't drown when she swam a wave filled ocean
A woman who had her feet flat on the ground even when she was at the middle of a hurricane
A woman who was given many reasons to give up but still decided to go on and hope
This woman is my mother
The mother that I dearly admire
And I forever will be fascinated by how steadfast she is

Finish what you started
You have it in you
Don't let this opportunity pass
Because you're feeling blue
Good things come
To those with tenacity
Go about your life
Sure and steadfastly
Keep a firm hold
Keep chasing your dreams
Nothing can keep you down
Move ahead full steam

When others behave negatively
towards me,
my compassion is steadfast
for myself and others
because I am aware
that only with a compassionate attitude
can I achieve
joy and happiness
for myself and others.

When people accuse me
of being abnormal
because I think for myself,
I steadfastly continue to think for myself
as I am aware
that thinking for myself
is the only way
that a unique me
in my unique situation
can achieve
my own unique joy and happiness.

When Destiny
brings danger and difficulty
I aspire to be steadfast
in optimistically
striving to achieve
my joy and happiness.

You taught me to dance in the storm
even when I couldn’t feel sunshine approaching
and in the chaos of my heart,
You calmed the waves within.
and I kept dancing wildly with You beside me.

I'm out of the ordinary.
simply put, I'm an outcast.
Baa, baa, I can see your savagery
and your pure illusion of remaining steadfast.
Yet I'm everything you've ever dreamed of!
Baa, baa, I can see right through your façade.
So stop trying to ****** me again, love.

Selfish needy human that I am.
My false courage and determination.
Standing among the wreck;
The mess I seemingly created.
Confusion robs my judgment
And I stand lost and alone,
Until the pieces begin to fit.
But I will stand strong and steadfast
As this world tears apart.

Sturdy
A house on a hill
With firm foundations
A treasure box for memories
A sanctuary when life chases after you
Unwavering
The winds hit hard
Yet the candle in the lighthouse does not flicker
To steer sailors away from the rocks
The flame is true
Guiding home those who are lost
Resolute
Determined to the end
A never faltering promise
To be there, no matter what it takes
Steadfast
I am for you
My love is true
My arms are open
And you will be accepted, no matter what

Highs before beloved biles
Bliss followed by bitter sweetners
A paradox
She loves her beloved
And he loves her too
But she fears that he looks into her eyes to see only what is easy to find
Does he see her?
Does he have the patience to read her?
Inbetween the lines of her cries
Elegantly striding down the ailse of her heart
Yet knocking down her priceless art
Her complex heart and complex mind
Begs him to look deeper in
Shes scared and scarred
Her insides need more love
Because beloved highs and lows make her juxtaposed.
Her fear pushes him away
But the look in her eyes screams stay
Soothe the worry lines away
A task not everyone can bear
In beloved highs and lows.

a light-headed
easiness is my breath,
finding footing and security
in the simple act
of breathing in
& out--
i am figuring out
what feels good, natural
like the length of leg-hair
that grows with steadfast vibrancy,
a thickness i accept
like the curves of my thighs, touching--
your words bring nurturing comfort,
this feeling of acceptance
& patience in your arms, distant
while i caress my own heart
with sweet nothings,
knowing full well we're both worth it--

The bird song begins earlier than I am prepared to hear it.
The sun has not yet made his entrance
to this side of the world
but I feel light dawning inside me.
My leaves are strewn about,
having landed violently at my feet last night.
My branches are sore,
I rocked and groaned all night long,
and my trunk is weaker --
I am cracked
and missing a few layers --
but my roots,
they go deeper than you could imagine,
and I will not falter.
I may sway,
shed pieces to the storm,
but I will not fall.

Just like sails unfurled
Holding steadfast in the wind
You are by my side

"You're soo going to Hell!"
"Wha-‽Naw; noo.
No. Reckon I ain't.
I ain't goin' ta Hell!
Open yo ****** eyes!
Hell is already upon us.
Hell's right in front'a me.
Hell's right in front'a y'all.
Hell's been tryin' to find me for a good minute
then Hell's comin' for my jester/hard-rock-musician ***
and I'm gonna give it my own hell *directly-the-fuck back,
thank-you-very-fuckin'-much.*
See: the Devil hates being stood up to.
Look him in the eye and hold your ground.
He only has what power you sacrifice to him.
Once you flinch, look away, get cocky: you've lost.
That's the crack in the dam; the noose 'round yo neck.
The same be true of God, the coward.
That's what the Devil did, the traitor.
Go figure he hates it, too!
Authority hates dissent.
Whatever side of whatever **** fence.
They both one of a kind;
spawned of Godmind.
Just like us. What, you surprised?
Jesus fuckin' Christ!
What are they teaching you in school these days?
Jack-fuckin'-shit, I reckon.
Go to hell!"

You're the wave
That shattered me,
I'm the rock
That stood up to you;
It's been centuries—
I've been steadfast,
You've been patient;
What more proof is needed—
We're perfectly matched

To stand strong in a world that rushes by
Is the hardest thing we'll ever do
So if you're asking yourself why
Remember, others are asking too

a tree so strong
never moving
stand your ground
though confusing
to love through the night
though you can't see
to trust with blind faith
this could never be me
enduring through all
with hope so vast
loving all the while
I give hope to those steadfast
