listening to the tune of the breeze
she sings to me through needles and leaves
nature's song can be seen in the trees
when they sway with me to her beat of ease

Christ

Cursed that I may be blessed
Broken that I may be whole
Truly You gave me the best
When in Your hands they made a hole
Hated that I might be loved
Bruised that I may be healed
Oh Lord only You have truly loved
I lay now with my hard heart peeled
Lord Your mercy holds me firmly
Lord Your love is now alive
In all I pray that it will be Thee
In whom I will always thrive
Lord I am honestly underserving
Yet Your love surpasses all
You are truly unswerving
For You catch me whenever I fall
Oh may I truly be out of my depth
When I think about all that You do
Oh Lord I am out of my depth
And longing to be lost in You

We

We're the kind of mess people see as art
We have flaws people see as curves and edges
We have scars that remind people of our defeat, pain and struggles
We're a map of everything we've been through

The Camaraderie of Poets

Finding another poet who seems
to write your own heart is like
coming into a familiar garden
when the light is just right

For all of you

Letter n°11 | Goodbye

I have to stop.
All this has to stop.
Writing about you, about what I feel for you.
That doesn't help.
I have to forget you.
You are my worst almost.

I have to move on.
We were nothing anyway huh.
Everything was in my head, right.
Get out of my head, my heart and my soul.
I will not write about you anymore.

O.P

Inexperienced

Truth is
We're all inexperienced
I may never experience one thing like another
But I still understand your human feelings, my fellow brother.

Nothing

She broke her own heart
By loving him

But truth is

She regrets nothing.

Time

Time can be the treasure for moments.
It cannot be bought or sold.
Whether it is slow or fast
Young people will start to grow old.

It can make a seed bloom to a flower,
A spark into a flame.
It can only be spent or wasted,
Permanent or could stay the same.

So if you have time
To make a change for good
Don't let it pass by
Or it will stay where it stood.

Knowing

I hear Jesus here.
In this radio - penetrating the holy silence.
In the little girls yelling - playing cards games to celebrate a birthday.
In my boyfriend's frustrated puffs of breath - as he wrestles with homework.
I feel Jesus here.
In the warm air - the ovens heating the frigid Seattle weather.
In the pillows - holding my head up, like the air up above water.
I know Jesus here.
I know Jesus.
I know.
He Knows me.
