Blinded

The world was young
And so was I
But time has stolen
My youth
And hope
I thought that all was
Good and kind
But now I see
That I was blind

Still Waters

Fighting
Pushing
Shoving

Families torn
Hearts betrayed

Manipulating
Bitching
Threatening

I take a moment
To be still

And see the water
In a glass
In front of me

(Still) Living in a Box

I say the things I’m told to say
I live the way I’m told to live
I smile, I act, I live my life
And when I dream at night
My dreams are free to roam
Outside the box I’m captured in

If Only

The skies blush
A paler shade of pink
While thoughts of mine
Think on all the things
You could do to me

If only

Sometimes

Drought is needed
To welcome rain

Sometimes storms rage
Revealing rainbow skies

Stretching across creation
Hope flickers bright

Finding the Love

You cried for help
I turned away

You screamed to me
I covered my ears

You pleaded
I closed my eyes

Until the sun faded
And all was still

And then

I turned to you
I saw you scream
I heard your plea
I felt your pain

I found the love
