Lonely Island

The waves washed our bodies up to the shoreline,
And we dove right back to the beginning again.
It started on a very cold, cold night,
There was nothing perfect about us.
She was scared and nervous.
I just didn't have the words,
And our hearts were beating incredible fast.
The moment she laughed I wished it could last.
We walked away in utter surprise,
And we laughed with such joy.
While the sparks were flying oh so high,
The waves continued crashing oh so hard.
As we started swimming to the sand bar,
We continued to be astounded of how far.
I slowly grabbed her hand as we stood tall above it all,
And I said I love you the mostest.
She looked at me and began to smile.
Then we just floated in the water.
This was by far the perfect moment.
The place we felt most at home at.
All the while the storm was coming.
The raging thunder was humming.
I leaned in to tell her I would never leave her side,
But she was already gone by that time.
Swallowed up in the vicious world,
Her beauty shined a light in my heart,
But then the scars and bruises began,
From all of the tossing and tumbling,
As I was thrown onto the sand.
Tears began falling from the sky,
I never uncovered my eyes, 
Now I was the only one left on this Island.

The End Times?

You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains. (Matthew 24:6-8; Mark 13:7-8 NIV).Mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God -- having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them. (2 Timothy 3:1-5 NIV). But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be laid bare. (2 Peter 3:10 NIV). An...

Even On My Worst Days

My eyes are opened wide, And the world is falling to pieces, I feel like sealing my heart completely. The tears still drop towards the ceiling. I wish I could see your beautiful creation again, But everything is still upside down. It’s another fight and one more day on the ground. I can pray for heaven to come raining, But here on earth I am drowning. I can say all the right things, But be misheard by everyone. As I am being pushed out to sea, You’re still out there searching for me. The love you have always strengthens me. And so I step on some toes on my path, And I struggle to trust the people around me, So, I may be losing myself as well, But I know I can never lose your grace. My faith could never change, Even on my worst days.

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.
