Sadness

Breaking, tattered, torn
Alone in a sea of faces
Interaction laps upon me
Soothing the chill of my heart
Only to wash and fade away just as quickly

Reality breaking into tiny particles
Until it becomes one with the cool night air
A glimpse in a dream
A figment of the imagination

Grays and blues
Smeared over a colorful canvas
What once was a beautiful picture
Now becomes ruined by darkness

Jagged, ripped
Pieces floating apart
From the original
From the original

The Battle

Tyrannous anger

Beating at the door

Of the unknowing soul

Dripping with venomous

Powers to consume

Its easy, pathetic prey

Oozing negativity

Spitting monstrosities

Feeding lies, upon lies, upon lies

Unaware and oblivious

To the danger lurking

Behind the tongue

Inattentive and blinded

To the menace

Waiting to pounce

Pompously pleased with its

Vile accomplishments

And unfair, mediocre victories

Unbeknownst to the nasty creature

Is the power one holds

In the depths of their heart

A home to the One

A home to the Son

Of the Almighty, I am

There is power in the blood

Power in the name

Power in the Son of God

Acceptance in the One

Who covers all sin

Who covers all shame

Acceptance in the One

Who spared His life

So we could gain

The Savior is the answer

The Savior is the defeater

The Savior is our victory

Child of My Soul

To crawl inside the deepness and the darkness

Amongst places that are a feared

It is worth it to find her, to seek her

It is worth it to draw her near

Find the one that brings you joy

The one that brings you gladness

Her innocence, her giggles

The laughter that wipes away all sadness

Her fondness and naivety

Of the world she clutches

Skipping the stones of imagination

Bringing love and beauty to everything she touches

Finding her is my mission

Holding on to her is my life goal

Seeking out the lost girl

The child of my soul
