I stride and find
That my escapes
Measure me most and take
Me to places in my dreams
It seems that I make
A new beginning
With every mistake
And forgo my drifting signs
Of forgetting
My past
But holding onto what
Holds true
To my success
The starry night fades into darkness
The owls sing and the birds leave
Such emptiness takes over
And then I realize my mind is
But a tool and I can create a new Dream
One without mosquitoes and bees
One that presents itself at it’s seams
As wonderous
And fulfilling and creates a quilt
And oppresses my weaknesses
The light that creates magic
Is also what entices my heart
And cannot call me lonely and in the dark,
I am but a resemblance of a care
One that exists to talent the day
And proves me to be happy
Whether at night or day or alone or not
This is my freedom
I exist in the root of passion
And inspiration
So that the sun always shines
And my nights are always full of stars
In tough times we rely on what we cannot see
It pleases me to reach into the depths of divinity
When i’m granted strength to hold on
I lay on the rock that God gave me
And think that I will never stop letting him use me
For my indifference is my purpose
And my righteousness dives into a stream
Formed with happy
I am content and my willow floats merry
You cannot see all that I am
I mark my path with what has found me
to my knees Before
This is grandiour
And I will not regret
but sweat
and extend of my skills
That have shattered me
I am in pieces hoping to achieve
An endless bouquet of words that
Can not only bring me empathy but also respect
Lord, take from me thoughts that don’t become me
Help me say every nice thing I think
And call me to be someone encouraging again
So many nights I lay awake in worry
Help me stay proper in you
And wash away my fears
Ups and downs
Lord, you kiss my forehead
And I shed my fears
So much love you offer me
Always hovering over me Are your angels
So many angles play into my picture of life
Let me take a moment to day thank you
For the ups and downs of life
And let them play into what is right about me
Resilience
Lord, show me that through this depression is the mold
that holds it’s passion to a new level
And resist in me anger that so often succeeds
Bless me and lead me in to the depth of success
Lord, you bother me with what stares at me in the dark
So black today as I pay homage to what abuses me
Let me start my day over,
And don’t give me a cold shoulder
Begin in me gladness
And wipe clean my despair
Make me new
It’s true I’m in satisfaction with you
