Although I thought that I was well
Something was missing, I could tell
An emptiness nothing could quell
When at last on my knees I fell

Though the world has torn me apart
Lord, you calmed my disquiet heart
God, Your love has set me apart
My King, you were there from the start

Here I am Lord, praying, praising
Though my feeble heart is aching
Lord, Your love is ever growing
God, Your grace is always flowing

Living a life without meaning
Fighting a fray and not winning
Maybe there's more I cannot see
Is there someone who hears my plea?

I cried alone in bed one night
Thinking if I should end my fight
That night I continued to weep
Hoping that I could fall asleep

Just when I thought that all is lost
Then came the One who paid the cost
Of the affliction of my sin
That is when something changed within

I always thought I was alone
But He treated me as His own
My Father, Yahweh the gracious
Who told me, son you are precious

A tiny bead on a plain of green,
Delivered by wings that gleam.
A tiny pearl of white so small,
To hatch on foliage of green I crawl.

I feed on foliage and nothing more,
To grow and ready for when I soar.
When I grow big, and fat, and stout,
I slumber, and sleep, and just hide out.

For weeks I wait until I reform,
In a cloak of green that could stand a storm.
When the right time comes then I emerge,
A butterfly; to seek thy love I'm urged.

And when thy love is finally found,
Together we shall then be bound.
And on green leaves which we unfurl,
We then shall place a tiny pearl.

I'm a hopeless romantic
I'm in love with love
I believe in fairytales
I do the cheesiest stuff

I'm a hopeless romantic
I dream in color about you
I think of falling in love
I dream of just us two

I'm a hopeless romantic
I smile at the idea of us
Surfing on rainbows
And jumping on clouds

I'm a hopless romantic
All I think of is you
I knew we were in love
And then I woke up

there are some things that lay beneath what is visible,
there are some words that are not said yet understood,
there are things invisible to the naked eye but are still felt,
there are some things you never thought were there,
there are some words never spoken, never uttered,
but these are those words that give so much feelings and emotions,
those are the things I want you to see.

Sitting quietly in the waiting room,
Waiting patiently for the time to come,
Not knowing exactly what to assume,
Wondering if what I'm doing is dumb.

Every second slowly passing by,
Every moment feels like forever,
I don't know exactly why,
But this feels like a lonely endeavor.

But God gives hope in every situation,
And He keeps telling me to wait a little longer,
Even in this time of great frustration,
He never fails to make me stronger.

And that is why I tell myself,
Just wait on God and let Him lead,
Just stop thinking about yourself,
And in His words, take heed.

For His plans for you are certainly great,
So just trust in Him and wait.

Love is suicide,
Loving you is emotional death
Hyperventilation,
Cardiac arrest

There exists no life without you
I am crippled by the absence of your warmth
Struggling to be free from thy love
Whilst chained to the ground.
