....the winds softly blowing-
leaves fall with the light breeze
....but when the storm
---------comes, I notice
----I stand up, waving my
many branches in the wind.
The more severe
----the more heavy the winds blow.
...oops- my branches are breaking!
This tree suffers a broken branch
with no survival or breath of life.
----there is no growth-
....the promise of life
has been broken in front of me.
When the branches are broken-
the tree looks more bare.  
But the tree still stands-
until you uproot me,
I can be fixable.
If I F

Let it be
that You are
not in My

When I

on you-
You may be
crushed-
And then what-
it is more than-
-just-
branches breaking off!

You are my hiding place,
You always fill my heart,
with songs of deliverance,
Whenever I am afraid

I will trust in You,
I will trust in You,
let the weak say
I am strong
In the strength of You,
I will trust in You.

Have I let me down
Heaven hear me now
I’m lost without a cause
After giving it my all

Winter storms have come
And darken my sun
After all that I’ve been through
Who on earth can I turn to?

I look to You
I look to You
After all my strength is gone
In You I can be strong
I look to You
I look to You
And when melodies are gone
In You I hear a song
I look to You.

About to lose my breath
There’s no more fighting left
Sinking to rise no more
Searching for that open door.

And every road I’ve taken
Led to my regret
And I don’t know if I’m gonna make it
Nothing to do but lift my head.

When the levies are broken
My walls have come
Crumbling down on me
When the rain is falling
Defeat is calling
I need you to set me free
Take me far away from the battle
I need you to shine on me.

Draw me Close
to You
never let me go
I lay it all down
again
to hear
You say
That I'm Your friend.

You are my
desire
That I'm Your friend
You are my
desire
No one else
will do
Nothing else
could take
Your place
To feel the
warmth of
Your embrace.

Help me find
the way
Bring me back
to You

You're all
I want
You're all
I ever needed
You're all
I want
Help me Know
You're near.

Untitled:

I was left on the wayside;
it was only temporarily.
In fact, for a while-
I was hermit;
and when I met you
my heart opened up again.
There was a breakthrough.
Someone in my life-
of the past-
very confused, lost in love;
and yet, still blames me-
In reality,
I am the book unfinished-
"Unfinished Business!!"
How is it then
You think you know so
much about me?
A suspicion?
No, that is what brought
You to this lesson.
Never believe what you see-
Question your heart-
And know where your mind is!
Please, I ask of you-
A legacy was warned
because of suspicion-
a talk from confirmation-
yet, nothing but your story
was told.
This story is getting
boring- nothing but meaningless
nonsense that only
incriminates who you are.
This is not a story
about who you are-
this is the story
representing where you are.
The truth is
It was not that I liked you-
but I made you learn
a lesson-
never to trade what you love
for the loss of another.
I am still making
my legacy-
where are you?
I am not saying anything-
there are ears
who hear, but only
see what they want to see.
I am not worried about
feelings- the feelings
the love of a person
Only I can still forgive
the moments in life
who thought of me
broken me of my life.
Do you think it is worth
the worth of finished business?
Unfinished Business only happens
when you are able to
guide yourself to success.
How do you define?
Is everything lust?
Why was I judged so harshly?
Where do you stand?
You stand on a road to
broken and bare tree limbs.
To lead- one must
Be-Able themselves to personalities
And Characters.
You want a lesson on love-
Deal with the source-
love's not from suspicions,
lies, and confirmations
Those of a past who
should have been gone-
I no longer view them,
trust them- nor
will I allow them.
They did enough to my book-
This book was not
suppose to have
love and suspense-
Your life was business-
A friendship wonderfully
made- other most
important with value.
Unfortunately, you
have a new reality-
a reality that has been
brought to you-
the answer of broken heart.
Am I a friend, you ask?
I will say, a friend does not need
to harass or stalk-
no, but when they are
around- and you are hiding-
the darkness is what
keeps me away.
Understand, you are
the problem
which must be solved-
and you are the light
in which we will all learn.
Get your life down the
path of righteousness-
there you will see your
dreams over a rainbow-
and fountains of life
springing before you-
and trees filled
with so many leaves
You will surpass all
this promise, if only
you can stop
abusing power with freedom.
There is free will and choice;
but how many of us
use our choices wisely.
The lesson here-
stay away from suspicions-
the darkness of confirmations
to void your legacies and dream-
and become dependent-
in yourself;
understand that there is more to me
than what you have already lost.
I am leaving this story;
in-ended, because
this story has a sequel-
A sequel of righteousness,
faith, love, peace-
and understanding-
a new beginning-
a promise of legacy-
and forget the book
that passes-
there was so many empty pages.
I can almost re-write
the phrases, but that will
bring me back-
and I am not going back.
Time to move forward.
This is not obsession
nor lust- this is
a new found promise-
a promise of legacy
and friendship.
Understand that love
is friendship; and without love
there is darkness;
you want to shine-
learn to love.

There is a beautiful flower-
with a seed floating in space.
There she is- the most exciting
twinkling of all sunflowers-
the Leo of sunshine-
burning passion.
I can only imagine-
the successful gardens
she made in my sight.
If only my bearing-
the beauty within her-
can make a smile
on my face.
A long time has left-
for only love finds me.

I past by you
I only remembered you.
This is where I am-
and you are not here.
If only I can see,
again- I am in hope.
