Crush

When I wake up,
I look around with this narrow view,
I feel so hopeless without you.
Our house is getting old and crowded,
I can’t feel you anywhere.
The ghost of our relationship still floats around stumbling,
And bumping into the furniture.
The walls are spilling out the tears of our pain.

Our happiness still may live and die under the sheets,
But something deep inside of me is fight for you.
Won’t you let me come up for air?
I can show you my still beating heart,
And you can crush me if you will,
But let me get these last words out.   

All of our weight is leaning on my shoulders,
And when I lay my eyes on your beauty,
I crumble into the many pieces I have become.
I am broken, so please don’t you break me!
Your focus is slowly being defeated.
There goes your honesty…
Out from your reality.
Slipping off the tiles,
Spilling loneliness all over the floors.

Our happiness still may live and die under the sheets,
But something deep inside of me is fight for you.
Won’t you let me come up for air?
I can show you my still beating heart,
And you can crush me if you will,
But let me get these last words out.   

Here is the air we breathe it is getting everywhere.
You just won’t go away.
I just can’t fade.
Wish we could have stayed the very same.
Watch us as we lose our balance.
Thinking life can’t happen.
So, if you’re kicking me out,
Just burn this house down.
Because we can bury everything under the covers,
In the closets even under the bed,
But you and I both know what we did.
So, let the memories out with the smoke,
Let our secrets go where they may go.

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.
