Enthralled by your grace

How I long to kiss your face

My peace resides with you

In you I move & have my being

Your love prompts me to climb the highest peak

To proclaim my love for you before all the world

In days gone by you've always kept me safe

Though I dwell in the shadow of death

I shall fear no evil with your hand in mine

With your love I shall slay the demon's keeping you from me

A chasm exists between you & me

With love we shall overcome all things

With heaven before me & hell beneath me

I shall trample what sin desire has brought forth

For to love you is to aht

Remember when the time is spent

Remember me when the time is spent

Remember who you are when the flame grows cold

Release the bitterness that resides in you, that resides in me

Forgive & leave our love behind

Why spend an eternity reeling in regret & missed opportunities?

Desolate

A million eyes encircle me, a mirage of shadows stock me

Following me as I make my way through this desolate place

A thousand faces displaced

Lust invades; Hate's invasive face rules this place

God has left & so will I

For to live a life bent on rebellion will lead us all to this desolate place

Full of sorrow, full of hate: though the world chooses to debauch

This is our lot, we choose our fate.

Fall Away

Falling away into the summer day of hopes forgotten & love betrayed

Anger resonates, faith permeates the atmosphere with love & fear

Before the wounded feet of Christ men fall away & I to gray.

The face of love

So many questions flood the mind

A deluge of affections bog the psyche

Soaking the heart with salty tears of love & regret

Too upset to think about yesterday

Too blind to see the face of love dawning beyond the horizon.

Another Day

Another day, another year ends.

Another day, another year begins.

Thinking bout yesterday.

Remembering what used to be.

On my knees I pray.

Asking God for relief.

Relief from my aching heart.

And unrequited love.

Blind

Confused & frustrated I don't know anything anymore. All I thought I knew doesn't seem so clear anymore. I don't feel like I belong: at first it was work, then it was life, now it's the world. This world is not where I belong. I don't feel comfortable sharing my true feelings with anyone.
