Speechless.

Lord I'm on the floor in pieces

so broken and confused

Wishing that this world

hadn't left me this abused.

There's a struggle in my heart

to fix this flawed creation

Can't do it on my own Lord

Let me feel that clean sensation.

I've defeated myself

more times than I can bear.

I need to give it up Lord,

Take away this ugly fear.

Need that freedom you offer,

That deep breath of fresh air.

Lord I'm just so scared

Lord I'm just so scared

Of the love that we could share.

Its so much more than anything

That I could ask for here.

it's unconditional

it's unforgettable

Lord I'm speechless that you're near.

A Dangerous Safe

You're a ticking clock.

A constant reminder

Of impending doom;

A dangerous safe.

My pulse is winning,

But you've already won.

But I can't give up,

Not that easily.

I don't know what it is

But you have it.

I don't know how you got it,

But I want it.

I'll crack the code

That is your mind-

Finding answers

That disintegrate in light.

In the dust

I'll write my name

And leave a kiss

To remember me by.

Before too long,

The wind will carry me away,

And I will become an echo

Of a ticking clock.

In Time

Simple stance but presence known

Show the world how much you've grown

Face that I may soon forget

Glance that I will not regret

Smile that commands me still

Nature that invites my will

Secrets unknown and history past

How could this be meant to last?

I fight no pride he tells no lies

I confide in silver eyes

Gentle hands but strong, secure

Show the world we're real and pure.

All Over The Place

I've gone to new heights.

These dreams so big inside my head,

I feel my feet leave ground,

And I ascend.

But the air grows thin

And my breathing fades.

I lose sight of what's real.

My heart drops to the earth

When I'm hit by it.

I can't think.

Let me down.

Clear my head.

Let me go.

Make some sense.

Let me be,

be anywhere but here

Save me from this

This constant fear

No more comfort in fallacies

I'm sick of it all

I'm breaking out

And He'll break my fall.

What's best, what's best?

I can't imagine

As I drift down to where I lay

im hurting inside

but it's easy to hide

so you won't see the sacrifices made.

I won't brace myself for impact,

I'll just get out of the way.

Z!

Where Are We?

There we are
There we may be-
Cushioned next to each other on the comfiest couch we know-
Arms laced, hands zipped together;
Our feet propped up on the coffee table ('cause it's just better that way.)
Content.
My head on your shoulder,
As you tell me your goals and aspirations-
Such big dreams for a mere mortal,
Yet I know God-willing you could change this world.
And so;
As quiet as the clock ticks, so;
We find out the rhythm that works together-
Works forward-
Yet stays here forever.
