john 14:14

if something is 99% true, and 1% false would you still follow it?
If you had a gallon of yummy lemonaide, and there was a tablespoon of pee in it, would you drink it?
If you were eating an apple and took a large bite out and found a worm in the center of the apple, would you eat it?
Why do you belong to something that you know has many untrue concepts, and calls the Bible untrue? The Bible is the most true of any book, and you would get closer to God by reading the Bible, than by any other book!
John 14:14  "If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it."  Ask God if the Bible is true, look at the facts, and see with your spiritual eyes, that becoming a Christian is the way to be with God after this life. 

 Thank you Lord Jesus, for all your gifts to me.  Thank you for knowing who I am and my heart.  Thank you for blessing my friends and family.  I praise you God for all good things.  Thank you for dieing on the cross and suffering for my sins! Thank you for helping me in my unbelief, to become a true believer.  I love you Jesus now and forever. Please bless those who will read this that they may come to know the truth. In your name, Amen.

Closed Eyes

Darkness, I cannot see
I stumble, looking for Thee
I stand here searching for Thy light
But, only dark blackness fills my sights
Voices screaming, crying for me to come
Chanting and raving, "where are you from?"
Cause I have faith I walk and trust
Stumbling still, but keep trying I must

Smack! Ooh I hit the pavement again.
I feel new bruises inside my hands
Touching my legs and arms with care
Reveals cuts and scrapes there
Where am I? What have I fallen into?
Now that I'm here, what should I do?
Trying to follow Christ, when I cannot see
I wonder sometimes, can you see me?
With hands spread out, once again i will stand
With all my soul, I'll follow Thy command

But there is darkness all around
I have faith, but still there is no light to be found.
This would be so much easier for me
If only, Thy will Lord, was for me to see.
Yet, I walk another mile and a half
My body wants rest, my will to laugh

Through tripping and scuffing my shins and knees,
I fall, and wonder, why oh Lord please
All my days I have followed Thy plan
Seeking mysteries to Godliness, Trying to understand
But, still I can't see
Lord hear my plea

On my knees, in the rain
I feel so cold, confused, and in pain
All my life, Thy word I have kept
During the day, or in dreams as I've slept
I wander to and fro on this earth
But, now I find my will is dearth.

Oh Lord, guide my way
I know I can't travel alone today
Mile after mile, together we walk
Hand in hand, you listening while i talk
My God, you are so patient and meek.
To my tears and concerns I hear you speak.

"My precious daughter, have no fear. I love you and am always near. I've known your pains and your delights. You have been obedient even without your sight Now, my child, listen to what i say You shall have your sights today. Though you thought it was from me When eyes are closed, they cannot see. So hear me now, I am God, whom you love. I will always be watching you from above. Try not to make things harder than they are, To get into heaven, you don't have to be a star. Just be the very best person you can be, Now, open your eyes, my child, and see."

A Mighty Change

Capturing the Image behind the glass

Pieces of me I've found at last

Reflections hidden behind this wall

Capturing me before I fall

Waking up to consciousness

Open eyes, succeed to confess

Light is fleeing the shadows away

Soon this night will turn into day

A mighty change, can it happen so fast

Going through the labyrinth of my past

Drowning deep I breath in my pain

Standing still I feel the rain

Fire dancing in my eyes

Taking off my thick disguise

Can you see into my soul

For there are pieces of me even I don't know

The past with the future are make believe

The here and now is you and me

So hold me close, and let me be

All I need is God and me

With Him I know there's nothing more dear

Than the woman staring at me behind the mirror

Quarrels From Yesterday

I wanted to call back yesterday

To murder it on the spot!

I wanted to redo the fight,

And finish it honorably.

I wanted to place the newly shattered pieces

Of bitterness and sorrow,

Locked away in a safe, forever and forgotten.

I did not want to feel the pain.

I did not want to mix manipulated guilt

With regret, and shame.

I did not want words of anger to shout again.

I did not want them sealed in time,

For then I could not change them.

I wanted my journey as pure as an April shower.

I wanted it as innocent as a new born baby.

I wanted it to be peaceful and full of sunshine.

I wanted it as a clean piece of paper,

Fresh and untouched.

So I could write the happy endings from

Fairy Tales upon it.

Tell Me

Weeping willows

that cry at my bedside

bring peace in their

comforting arms

Sans (without) fear of violence

I speak to the dust

to be embraced in an

empty hallow

Regretted, abandoned

Alone.

thoughts full as if glass

shattering the forsaken

heart

with hope of a sun

Le moon is dropped

into the grande bouche of

darkness

society embellishes freedom

and rights

manipulated guilt and depression

seizing the young dreams and

pride

from the children

while swallowing the

will of the parents

Nature in all her splendor

roars and moans in

pain and disappointment

for her green world now is

gray

recalling treasured

memories of yesterday

Les larmes lui montent aux yeux

for the memories are fading in

silence

paths that follow the steps

of the ancient

have become

Envahis (over come)

wild with terrorism

politics, till almost they have vanished

Efface!

Standing with my eyes

open to the sea

i am blind

where are the roses

Dis moi

The Princess of Persia

White heavenly royalty

Prances in from the

Litter box.

Delicately shaping her

Magnificent mane,

To purrr-fection.

Stretching her arms

In an innocent and

Feminine yawn,

She unconsciously paws

With her absent claws.

Drifting past the arrogant room

Leaving a scent tickling the nose

As a feather.

With spongy steps and clawless paws,

She floats to the window seat,

Her throne.

Beauty radiating from her whiteness.

Her Persia heritage left her

Face, wall-like.

Emerald eyes catch mine, an ocean.

Pushing her shoulders skyward

Magnifies her royal aura.

Giving a nod she invited me,

Her faithful subject,

Into her presence,

With her elegant ball of string.

Beautiful Portrait

Broken pieces fallen on the ground

A half hearted smile scarce to be found

Rigorous honesty one at a time finds

Broken in pieces is not the mind

Shattered mirrors, a broken reflection makes

Once mended a beautiful portrait takes

This was me, Once upon a time

Still and fragmented, scarcely worth a dime

(to me)

Yet like a diamond, whom never loses its worth

I was precious as rubies even from birth

Half empty, or half full, who can tell

Going through heaven, Going through hell

Is there only black and white

No! There are many shades of grey

Rainbows can be seen through the rain

Broken pieces a puzzle to fix

Greys and colors in the mix

Shadows add density and light

God's creations can be optimistic and bright

Like the lone tree in the middle of the run

My focus was settled upon the one

Now, to the left, to the right, so much space

In the mirror, it's me I face

If I say I can or I can't it's truth

My life thus far is the proof

And still I can change my thought process

To see who I am, not "yet another mess"

Broken pieces fallen to the ground

A full hearty smile now is found

Shattered mirror, a broken reflection makes

Once mended, a beautiful portrait takes

Night

Sleep so tightly, my little one dear.

Shadows and monsters are nothing to fear

Inside the morning sadness is found

When all of nights beauty is not all around

Sip in the music of silence and shade

Gulp the cool breeze, where dreamers are made

Laugh with the wind, as he rushes in strides

Tickeling your fancy till you ache in your sides

Remember the widow, the orphan, the lark

For all are alone, in their beds, after dark

Sing the sweet music of stars in the sky

Sampling the efforts of mystics near by

See how the waves of graid do shift

The clouds of pollution do softly lift

Fields of ocean running swifty to shore

Piles of pilgrims dancing once more

Shepherds writing of sun and moon

Hurry in dream land, the sun will come soon

And as the darkness slips away

It is time to start another day

Even so shed not one tiny tear, young lad

For soon another night is yet to be had

Bird Frog

I have a bird inside of me

With clear, crisp voice to sleep she sings

I hear her day

I hear her nights

Sweetly she sings through

Peace or fights

My friends are fooled

They do not know

It's not my voice that sounds so

For one cool night

Wide mouthed I slept

Into my mouth the small birdy crept

And now, she will not go away

I'm rather glad, I'd hoped she'd stay

For her voice has helped lift my heavy load

And changed the life

Of this Toad.

Sleep

You devil!

You deceiver

You undiscovered wake

You fiendish thief!

You liar

You vulgar expression

You explicative remark

You anger ridden demon

You tease

You heaven forsaken nightness

You night forsaken day

You wide eyed betrayer

You body fatiguer

You muscle unreparer

You wretched waste

You time stealer

You fatherless child

You female dog

You immaculate angel from hell

You Lucifer

You bearer of false hope

You life taker

You candle burner

You butt

You taker of breathe

You showerless monkey

You filthy war munger

You accidental over dose

You imperialistic withered flower

You sycophant!

You daughter of fire

You icy heart

You escape artist

You slippery little sucker

You wave leaving shore

You tsunami and shadow

You rainbowless fall

You sunless sky

You evil being

You sour sugar

You salty Cake

You vomit face

You crapy ending

You waste of space

You terrible night mare in the day

You death of life

You betrayer of souls

You manipulator of the body

You indignant psychopath

Why - Originally sung by Rascal Flatts

Songwriters: Mathes, Robert; Shamblin, Allen

"You must have been in a place so dark, you couldn't see the light
Reaching for you through that stormy cloud
Now here we are gathered in our little home town
This can't be the way you meant to draw a crowd

Oh why, that's what I keep asking
Is there anything I could have said or done
Oh, I had no clue you were maskin'
A troubled soul, oh God only knows
What went wrong, and why
You would leave the stage in the middle of a song

Now in my mind I keep you frozen as a seventeen year old
Rounding third to score the winning run
You always played with passion no matter what the cost
When you took the stage you shined just like the sun

Oh why, that's what I keep asking
Is there anything I could have said or done
Oh, I had no clue you were maskin'
A troubled soul, oh God only knows
What went wrong, and why
You would leave the stage in the middle of a song

Now the oak trees are swayin' in the early autumn breeze
The golden sun is shining on my face
The tangled thoughts I hear, a mocking bird sing
This old world really ain't that bad a place

Oh why, there's no comprehending
And who am I to try to judge or explain
Oh but I still have one burning question
Who told you life
Wasn't worth the fight?

They were wrong
They lied
Now you're gone
And we cried

Cause its not like you to walk away in the middle of a song
Your beautiful song

Your absolutely, beautiful song."


Dear Clint. You have had a great and wonderful influence on my life. I want you to know that i will always carry your humor love and support for others forever in my heart. Peace be with you my dear friend. I love you. Hugs to you.

Divorce Flowers

Warfare manipulates the sun

Two nations rise

Each to conquer the other

Poverty stretches our her arms

To cradle the children in fear and false protection

The parental carpet is pulled

Civil war breaks out

The government is weak but still in control

Good men are cast into exile

While law breakers rule the land

My heart dips her lips

Into the desperate waters of black human emotion

Waiting for the flowers of surrender to appear

To beam out hope and peace once more

Silence is heard in the riffles

As ten delicate hands elevate the flowers

Above the crowd between the two nations

"Forget-me-not" is whispered

Refusal collapses all hope

Hate and forgiveness become bitter enemies

Rain washes away few pains and sorrows

Leaving behind those crushed

Flowers.

To Jesus

Me singing "Only Hope" as sung by Mandie Moore.

Gates of your Hell

Here I am knocking on the Gates of your Hell

From an open window of my own.

No one is answering,

I guess it is just as well

Deep inside, I feel so alone.

Once I let in another,

Who told me of their pain

Together we were firm and strong

But, she has left me for the other

So here I am again.

She has died, so is my living wrong?

Here i am knocking on the Gates of your Hell

Through an open window from my own

I understand if you won't be answering,

It may be just as well

Perhaps I am meant to always be

ALONE.

For I the Lord do not give you the spirit of fear, but of power and love, and of a sound mind

old friend, new enemy

·         I saw you when you walked into the restaurant You were guilty but full of smiles

·         I heard you whisper to your guest, LIES self-pity in all the styles

·         I have no fear of you reading this, since reading was never to your liking

·         You live your lie so fast and swift, and you your hair you are still spiking

·         You saw me at the other place – you froze and shared and cried

·         I noticed it was the same old garbage you spewed forth as you lied

·         I do not hate you, as you go, in-fact I mostly wish you well

·         And after all that I can do and as far as I can tell

·         You are still living the same, (ahem) your same old hell

·         So this poem devoted to you; you never may ever read

·         But if there is anything I can do, find in someone else a need

·         For I can’t help you any more

·         On your knuckles I have banged close the hard oak door

·         And it’s okay if you wear a frown

·         ‘Cause you are now infamous I’ve got you all written down

·         Why did you have to show your face

·         I could be angry any place

·         But you have iced up the room

·         Be off with you upon your broom

·         Fly away into the fog.  Tail between legs you female dog

·         Never again to show yourself

·         With you is dearth, without you wealth

·         Ha ha ha! And a great big goodbye

·         With pants on fire and a needle in your eye

·         Fuck you and all your promises broken

·         You lied far beyond the simple token

·         My heart, my hope all the truth I have shared

·         Fell on deaf ears while my soul I bared

·         You did more than stomp on my desire

·         You dumped gasoline on my skin and lit me on fire

·         Then to put me out – so you said

·         You completely emirs my poor little head (in mud)

·         Why couldn’t you just leave me alone

·         Quit calling and texting me on the phone

·         Not until I wasn’t nice once did you say you were done

·         Surgery you said was worse yet asked 50 times worse than being attacked?

·         Yes! Of course! you were in pain

·         As you tore through my heart in horrific distain

·         I did not want to think that I gave you this power

·         But you can’t know the sweet without tasting the sour

·         Your betrayal was all up front and close but I pretended to not see it

·         Still ice woman you were the most

·         The most painful relationship I’ve, in a long time, had

·         Leading me to think I loved you? Shit, was I mad?

·         Confusion totally swept over me

·         Because you told me you were in need

·         The need to see someone crawling towards you

·         I became your servant not knowing what to do

·         So now you talk about me behind my back

·         I thought I’d care, but I just laugh

·         From the look in your eyes I can tell you’re giving me the power you try to pretend so well

·         I do not know what will become of this poem my dear

·         Our paths are forever parted, that much is clear

·         So, as you walk out the door, I will think of you one time more

·         And send a small blessing out your way

·         To, perhaps have you see, one great day

·         That you’re not the center of everything. You’re not the only one who can sing.

·         I will cross my toes and fingers too, in this little prayer for you

·         That one day you will see the light

·         No longer will you put up a fight

·         For fear of things that go bump in the night

·         But that you may truly be truly free

·         God bless you my once friend, Now, leave me be.
