The answer is US

our lives look great in pictures
stale memories of the past
the pain of today not forgotten
good times never seem to last

words sound great in our heads
but a mess when mixed with paper
we keep our feelings down deep inside
that way everyone's a little safer

in all reality its the quite ones
that go by with just a smile
hiding the hurt we've caused them
yet they always go the extra mile

before you go and judge someone today
remember they're just like you
there is a solution that doesn't include "ME"
but starts with "U"

You're pure beauty (set me free)

You're pure beauty, I'm just a beast

I was hungry you gave me a feast 

Show me your love as my prayers will not cease

You're pure beauty, send me your peace

Ohhhhh ohhhhh ohhhhh ohhhhh

Set me free

Ohhhhh ohhhhh ohhhhh ohhhhh

Till I'm on my knees

Dear beloved, touch my soul

Send me your spirit, until I am full

Send me your love till I can feel the pull

Dear Beloved, I give you my soul

Ohhhhh ohhhhh ohhhhh ohhhhh 

Set me free

Ohhhhh ohhhhh ohhhhh ohhhhh 

Till I'm on my knees

Oh my savior, I'm in too deep

You said I love you, feed my sheep

Send me you love, as I take the leap

Oh my savior, comfort me as I weep

Ohhhhh ohhhhh ohhhhh ohhhhh 

Set me free

Ohhhhh ohhhhh ohhhhh ohhhhh 

Till I'm on my knees

the back slide

I've slid back so far
i cant see me any more
I've fell down into a hole
that i was never in before
I hid there for a while
rejecting your helping hand
not ready to leave my sorry
and once again stand

when i was down
wanting no one around
i pushed you away
when i was broken
no words to be spoken
i would dread today
now you lift me
so i can see
this is the debt you pay

this is the back slide
this is the bad side
of me
this is the back slide
when i run and hide
from me
this is the back slide
where our souls collide
inevitably

I slid back but what for
now i don't see me anymore
all i can see is you
and all the things you do
i cant hide your love lord
and you have answered my plea
i finally see you lord
i can finally see you in me

when i was down
wanting no one around
i pushed you away

what i stand for

father, son, and spirit; i pray we all hear it
this is my creed.
i want to plant this seed
hear me now and listen; I'm a bold christian
i want to scream it out
come on now shout

this is, this is my heart
this is, this is what i stand for


this is what i stand for
faithful with some so you give me more
this is what i stand for
i live for you 'cause you died for me
this is what i stand for
you fill me up, and then fill me more
this is what i stand for
this is what i stand for

you remind me

you prayed on the mountain
not you will but mine
you gave your life for me
you gave me eternity


ooooooo you remind me
by your body
by your blood
by your cross
by your love
ooooooo you remind me
by the bread
by the wine
by the love
by the sign
ooooooo you remind me

you were bruised and beaten
abused and mistreated
you gave your life for me
you gave me eternity

ooooooo you remind me
by your body
by your blood
by your cross
by your love
ooooooo you remind me
by the bread
by the wine
by the love
by the sign
ooooooo you remind me

you were nailed to the cross
the worlds greatest loss
you gave your life for me
you gave me eternity

Christian Poem 1

I need filled with your goodness.
I need to feel your presence.
Lift me up beyond myself
with your loves incomparable wealth

Rid me of these briars of sin I run through
and let me walk peacefully next to you
When i trip and stumble along the way
I know you're still there and I'm OK

Here's to you; this is me
Your life exhibit in my reflection.
Here's to you; life in me
Make a the vessel of your living water
Here's from you; gift to me
Your life was taken for my soul survival
Here's to you; all i am
A forever follower of the great I AM.

this one had a little inspiration behind it. but i like it so far. i think i'll work on this to make it into a song...let me know what you think.




Sometimes I talk too much because I’m too afraid to listen
Shattered pieces of my heart always seem to glisten
Through this smile that’s all a front of a lesser disposition
Pull it all together and get back on this mission
Find the one that makes your heart beat like a drummer
The one that makes so hot you always think its summer
Her eyes tell a story that makes you lose a breath
When she’s not around I’m twitchin' like I’m some meth
Sometimes I care too much because I’m afraid of rejection
So I have realized that I’m in quite an odd position
I want to be with you but not to jeopardize our relation
What we have is good; it’s understood, no further iteration
Where to go from here is now the standing mystery
I guess the rest of the story wont be know till its history

Sonnet 1

Haven't written a sonnet in quite some time. Thought I'd take a stab at one. let me know what you think:


I'm realizing I have nothing but time
to be me and pursue what I'm wanting
To convey it all to you in this rhyme
a task to me, that is a bit daunting

I have found things in you that are so true
beauty for one, I can so plainly see
a personality that is so you
a smile so warm no one else's will do

I so don't know what to do to get her
her laugh echos in my head all day long
to the point i wish we were together
is this all selfish or is it just wrong

the more I think about it I lose steam
then I suppose this is all just a dream

Betrayed

Thanksgiving 2011

Thanksgiving is approaching, and I'll be cooking again this year. If you dont have anywhere to go for Thanksgiving, you're welcome to come to the house for some great food. Check out the menu for the food we'll be having. All of which I'll be making homemade!

Beautiful!

I cant wait to taste those lips of honey
I'm sure your kiss is more than money
When you're around its always sunny
You give me butterflies in my tummy,
Its kinda funny
Then I see your eyes and i'm taken away
Amazed by what i see, i cant even say
One thing i can tell you it made my day
You look at me again, took my breath away
I'll never forget that day
I'll keep this short and make it fast
In an instant you made me forget the past
Spending time with you would be a blast
I hope it happens, and i wish its not the last

The Phoenix In Me.

I cant sleep like I used to
I lost a piece of me when I lost you
Now I struggle to maintain
I thing I'm going insane
But I've changed
Rearranged
My thoughts of who I am
I am a new man
I have to be more
Leave the weights at the door
I carry my head held high
And live like I'm gonna die
Nothing can stand in my way
Fight the battle every day
But I will lose no longer
Because every day I grow stronger
Cuz I don't sleep like I used to
I'm stronger than when I met you
So now I've moved on
And the sting is finally gone
There's only memories that remain
All that's left is mine to gain
I'm never gonna stop
I'm already beyond the top

Great Day

I said good night, I said good morning
what else can I say
Good day

The day started when I seen you
And you made the wait worth it
The things I enjoy the most
Like spending time with you
Are the things that get me through

I said hello, I said good bye
What else can I say
Say hey

Time well spent is the hours with you
From the second we first meet
Until we part once again
You light shines through
So I had to share this, me to you

I said thanks, you said welcome
What else can we say
Good day

I said good night, I said good morning
what else can I say
Great Day

For Valentine's Day

Valentines day is a day to show you care
A day where love is in the air
Like every other day it comes and goes
Even filled with highs and lows
Not everyone may be in love to enjoy the holiday
The point isnt about how much you pay
Its about showing how you feel
Not forgeting about being real
Every year we rush around
Searching for the best gift to be found
During all this sometimes we lose sight
All along forgetting what is right
Yet seeing one smile from you, makes me remember
