Give It Up For You

Here I am caught in this dance,
Spinning until I finally get my chance.
I’ll put one foot forward,
I’ll put one foot back,
But until we move together,
We will continue to lose each other.
So here is my hand,
I’ll open myself up wide,
So you can forever live inside.

Here I am searching for you.
So here is my heart I pour it out,
So here is my soul I’ll let it go.
So here is my life I give it up for you.

Here I am to finally lose myself,
I know you could truly help.
I’ll leave my burdens at the door,
I’ll leave my trash at the altar,
And I will live this life,
The way you taught me.
So In my final steps,
Maybe our footing wasn’t perfect,
Maybe our wording wasn’t all clean,
But in the end you were forever here to love me.

Here I am searching for you.
So here is my heart I pour it all out,
So here is my soul I’ll finally let it go.
So here is my life I’ll forever give it up for you.

I am so glad I decided to check my 20sb emails tonight. I needed to read this...I should probably think of a more masculine word, but this poem is beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing your heart and posting this so other people could be moved by the words the Lord gave you.

Thanks, I am glad you feel that way. This year in my life I decided if I was going to Blog it's going to be more about God. Well God bless!

Warning Sign to a Lost Connection

I'm losing a little bit of me inside. All of the breakdowns drive them to hide. I'm wandering around hoping to find something that will never be true. My mind is spinning away from me. I can't see what's in front of me. I tried to be someone else, but the pain doesn't go nowhere else. I WANT TO BREAK!! I want to fall to my knee's. I want to scream out loud. I can't take this anymore. I'm stuck in this hole, and there is nobody to dig me out. With my back up against the wall, I can't see my dreams when your standing in my way. I'm staring at the future begging for the past. I know the good times, but they don't ever last. I WANT TO BREAK!! I want to fall to the floor. I want to scream out loud. I don't think I can take this anymore! My heart is still beating, but my breathing is getting weaker with all of this weight on top of my chest. I keep on fighting these angels wrestling these demons to the ground. I keep on walking until I los...

The Weight

rain falls from the blackness in the sky, the water soaks the earth. here we stay a float, but slowly we are drowning. the mud grabs us by the ankles, pulling us into the ground. everyday is a struggle to move. With all of these days, we carry out this weight, walking closer to the pavement. we tippy toe across the marsh, crashing faster each time. crushed to our knees, our hearts slow to a beat. we question our strength, savoring every last drop, like the very last scotch. and at the end of the day, when the moon covers the view. your soft hand pressures, then squeeze’s these muscles and slowly cracks the bones, you push down upon me, I pray you don’t break me. With all the pain and agony, we continue to push forward, but we question our lives, always struggling to stand up straight. fearing our inevitable fate. carrying this horrible weight. Note; In all honesty this is about the world and the struggle to live, have faith in God, but the weight some t...

If I Could I Would

If I could change a thing, I think I would have changed everything. If I could have known the truth, I would have never been with you. Twenty-five and I am so tired of this childish love, And all the pain that comes along with all its games. Seems such a waste to throw it all away, But I am who I am, like me or not, But you will never be able to change me. The world has its grips on you, And I am no way getting involved. Today could be the greatest of days, But what would you have changed? All of your wrong mistakes, your bad calls, All your fear and lies, Or are you just so selfish inside? If I could change the way we were, I think I would change everything. If I knew the absolute truth about you, I would have never even met you. Twenty-five to life with all that you did, Is this the end of love, should I give up? And here I am stuck with a broken heart, And busted up sight. These days are blurring together, And nothing seems al...
