It was true that I didn't have much ambition, but there should be a place for those without wings, a better place than the usual one, where dreams flow like rivers at dusk, how could anyone enjoy being woken up at 6:30 in the morning by an unrelenting clock, to jump out of bed like a puppet pulled...

But a Whisper
O gentle sleep. Most precious of secrets Carefully placed between sunlight and twilight’s touch of warm air and wet kiss Asunder from me, Yet all of me woven into a spiders web of silken spun strings. Reliving each and every moment in one’s lifetime. Again, then yet again. Bizarre creatures I’ve created, shouting messages of concern. The very...

Rest Your Faith And Resign It But Test Your Faith And Find It
If God is hateful explain where love comes from. If God is your equal, define the body and how each piece flows as one, and recreate it. If God is betrayal convince me your life is done, that you're not just undone, but unfinished. If God is pure punishment explain replenishment, recuperation and recovery. Your discovery of God is not set in stone and neither is mine. So give Him...

She fell into his arms, so sweet He swept her off her glass-slippered feet But you’ve heard all this before They climbed into a golden carriage Where he took her hand,...

Premium Member But what lies beneath the shadow of the night you wear like a heavy cloak?
But what lies beneath the shadow of the night you wear like a heavy cloak? What do you see in the mirror when all the masks fall off and fade into nothingness? Pure white, cold light that bathes the wound, is all that remains beneath the layers of silence. Your scars, what do they truly hide, and what...

Premium Member Look but don't touch
Dante Gabriel Rosetti immortalized his lovers: the strong, graceful and voluptuous gentlewomen who could have been countesses and baronesses. Indeed, their beauty would stand the test of time. He shared their innate glamour with the world but kept for himself the spell of their smile. One by one voluptuous enchantress with eyes like daggers warned onlookers that beauty was hardly an open...

Trying to explain the unexplainable But it's so much fun
Have you ever talked with God? At first it might feel very odd. Please move your feelings out the way. And let your heart do the talking today. You're not just talking to the air. The One that created you is there. If you're not sure how or what to do. Let the Bible be the guide for you. Open it up and...

OUR IMPERFECTIONS
Before you point fingers at another Have you truly examined yourself ? Before you destroy Have you created? Before you feel above everyone Have you uplifted anyone? We all have imperfections but perfect in our ways. Before you feel worthy Do you have any worth? Most of you have no value, Without money. Money does not give you value But it adds...

Nothing But A Number
Nothing But A Number! Don’t speak of sorrow, don’t pretend.. You were no lover, not a friend. I gave you chances through every tear.. You traded love for someone near. You lied with ease, you cheated more.. While I stood aching at your door. Tanya in Denmark, then Laura’s bed.. You stitched your guilt where I bled. You spun your tales and smiled wide.. While...

Premium Member Jesus did not say worship me, but rather follow me
Jesus did not say "worship me," but rather "follow me," a vast difference, like a sunrise that illuminates the path, one gives you the power to rise, to fly with the wings of your soul, the other binds you with unseen chains, keeping you captive in the dungeon of worship, for following him is a path of light, a...
