Blood drenched wrists
Dripping to the ground

"You are not enough"

Was all he heard from the crowd

Eyes blurry
Suffering
Handed thorns for a crown

Crying "please forgive them father"

On him, not a blemish could be found

"You will be with me in paradise"

Comfort to the man
On whose hands
Blood could be found

Was it not enough
To save mankind
Through only the one sacrifice?

I say it was more than enough
A balance of such

None the more
So profound

Frantically scrambling fingers tug at the ball of confusion.... some strings loosely looped, some tightly wound. All deceiving the eye. Some seeming easy to untangle, yet all too caught up. It feels like a ball of eternal mess, but that too is deception.

she knows he dreams about her
like metal to a magnet
thoughts travel backwards
to unending fantasies

time was new
sadness had ended
love flourished like
a thousand gardens in spring
that was then

she knows now
her thoughts too
travel back to love
when it was brand new

Sadly so this is what you wish:
    Try your best
    your hardest
    So as not
    to be sefish
   To be helpful
   And contructive

All the while helpless
Enabling the self destructive

A light in the dark
A flame from a spark
In the most hopeless place
Even there is Your grace
Even when I was dead
You kept me fed
My sin had me captive
But You were still active
In changing my heart
It was always You from the start
You make me better
You wrote me a letter
Of instruction and love
Sent from above
Despite my thoughts of the day
You're the one that remains the same
Despite the desires within me
You remain my reality
I am so grateful for You
Make my heart brand new
Now within my soul is a fire
Burning brighter and brighter
Forgive me for my inconsistency
And help me be a better me

I'm ansy
Getting that feeling
I've got the itch to go!
Sights and adventure
Call out my name
giggles and thrills galore!
Laughter rings just up ahead
Excitement
around every corner!

That's all I want to know
Why only certain days qualify
To be grateful, thankful, loving and kind
Why only once or twice a year
Why not all the time?
To be together as a family
To help one another
To contribute to community
to be joyful together
That's all I'm confused about
Days are dedicated to money
Even though every year we have 365
Why oh why does money precede
when what we love is alive
