~Staying focused on the good~

image

Where did I go

I was in the middle of finding

The most beautiful part of me

A diversion led me away

When I returned

I had lost something

Something so profound

Now there are only fragments

Scattered in my mind

~THE SKY IS FALLING ~

My arms are tired from holding up the sky

It’s falling and I can no longer abide

Earthquakes break like dominoes

Mountains shake and crumble in humility

I can no longer outrun the earths collide

Ships recklessly pollute our seas

The ocean had once washed our shores

But things have changed dramatically

As waves explode upon her chest

Infecting sand upon the land

As reckless captains do command

Purging toxins she now bleeds

Disease cries from sea to shore

Fierce winds fuel a world on fire

Our men are turned into war machines

I cannot look another day

For when I do my heart breaks in-two

It cracks and my faith pours out

I need a miracle this very hour

Take this cup from me I pray

Heal our scars

Cleanse our souls

And Lord, one more thing before you go…

The skyis falling and you see

This burden is too heavy

Will you hold it up for me?

~Help them Father~

image

If I cry out in Your Name

Would You hear my burden

And take away their pain

Only You know what they’ve been through

Will You hold and protect them

Your mercy I know it’s true

I need a miracle this very hour

Grant them a vision

So they might see

The love they long for is endless in Thee

Touch their hearts and heal their minds

The price You paid was not in vain

You conquered death

So that they might live

I cannot watch them die another day
Father I lay them in Your arms

With my one last breath

I turn my head and walk away

My thoughts…

“I understand now how You felt…”

A troubled girl by a troubled world…

My sister painted me today

She was troubled by the state of our

world in so many ways

She said painting takes it all away

image

So here I am

Used as a canvas

As a healer of pain…

Words make us feel…

image

What is real

Your words

Hit my chest

Cracked my heart

Open

Just enough

To let you in

And I am now able to touch

What I never could..

image

Feel…
