God has been in and out of my life
Like the tides on a beach

I've experienced feelings of loneliness
Like the dry sand spells that find their way to the sea

But there has always been a part of me
that senses his presence
Like a salty ocean breeze
that ruffles the fruitless, dry sand

Without God
My life wouldn't exist
Like how a beach would be a desert
without the ever-roaring sea

With God
My life is alive
But not only is it alive
It is free

Through wrenched storm
and delightful sun
God will always be a part of me because
In covinent we are one
and he loves me
like the sand
is to the sea

It always hugs me
In a warm loving embrace
I love my blanket

The land in my head
That I visit before bed

Is as intense
As flaming red

If only I could linger
In the land in my head

The one that I go to
Before bed

Where everything is perfect
And hope is not dead

I would be happy
If to stay in my head

but for now in these moments
Before I sleep

When it falls upon the time
I feel I should weep

My red land fades
into the deep

Because I'm drifting
Slowly to sleep
O child of the sun,
Don't you notice the radiance,
The radiance you give others to smile,
The light they find in the dark,
Was because of you?

Your glow is contagious,
Your laugh remains in our memory,
Light touches our hearts,
Makes us forget about mistakes,
But what about you?

O child of the sun,
Where is your radiance?
Where is your smile, your love?
You touch the heart of others,
Lighting their world, darkening yours.

You know the taste of oblivion,
The price of forgetting,
The pain of loving,
Yet not feeling loved.
You know the feeling of fading away.

O child of the sun,
You hesitate before firing your bow,
Afraid to take a life.
Your hesitation has cost you a dear friend,
How do you live on?

Your music touches your soul,
The only feeling you have left.
You control the notes,
And form them from your soul.
But who listens, besides you?

O child of the sun,
Your heart was stolen by ice,
Covered and frozen...
When the fire touches it,
It burns more than it should.

Your friends see you as an ally,
But you always feel alone.
Life always seems hollow yet brimmed with light,
You feel like your friends take you for granted,
Because they don't know who you truly are,

Until you're gone.

People make me insane.

People keep me sane.

Got it?
Get it?

Good.

I wonder if he's thinking of me
As much I'm thinking of him

I wonder if he still sees the sparkle in me
Like I still see the sparkle in him

Does he miss me?
Because I truly miss him

When you love someone
Who can't love you back

It feels so dreadful
Like an internal attack

Then when you look
Into their beautiful eyes;

There are no words that exist
That could ever describe

The feeling of empty
Explosions inside

Leaving you ashamed
And wanting to hide

All the good feelings
That you ever let slide
#love #loss #never #again
