They want to occupy us, take control, make us be on our knees, and kick us while we are down.
More and more, we hear and see, many that want to dominate and make us slaves, make us pay, make us slaves, make us weak and make us cry.
We want to live in peace, to love, to walk in peace, to pray and live happily.
They want to end our lives, to make us slaves, to make us cry, they want to change our ways, to make us live under their ways.
We want to live in peace, to love, to walk in peace, to pray and live happily.
We ask God to clear any and all that want to harm us, to take away all the negative force that surrounds us and tries to make us live under occupation.
Lifting prayers to God, today and always.
Love is breath, it makes us feel alive, it gives us all the joy that makes us want to cry.
Love is you, all the little things you do, you lift me high and make all my moments feel so clear and high.
Loving you is so true, true love that never makes me blue, you make all of me feel good.
Love, you are like the breath of life, each day we have gives us more love that fills the air.
Loving you is so true, true love that never makes me blue, you make all of me feel good.
Love is God, for true love is something we feel and breathe with our true love.
May we live each day with love breath, and love, and peace, all the days of our lives.
Lifting prayers to God, today and always.
Life is far from easy breezy
We work we toil we suffer
We dream we climb we fall
Happiness measured in moments
is gathered as precious gems
to be cherished in our mind
AP: 3rd place 2026
There was a time when happiness
seemed to me the only way of life.
Summer seemed to last forever
as if freedom had been served to me
on a big beautiful silver platter.
Youth was timeless and grand
with rainbows forever adorning the skies.
Whatever went wrong?
Why is Christmas Day or Valentine's Day RED?...Other than colors green, gold or yellow or white or pink, why red?
Christmas and Valentine's are red, very red in many representations. Manifested not just by its color, but by the sentimental message or warm thoughts being delivered by the sender, promoter or manifestor.
Blood is red and blood is what flows through you. Red blood cells or Erythrocytes are red because of Hemoglobin. Whatever your blood type is, it's Oxygen that gives color to it.
White blood cells or Leukocytes are part of human armor that protect the body from infections, viruses, bad bacteria and other foreign invaders.
The colors red and white can be seen in many occasions and places like anniversaries and shops, not just in the clothes worn by humans or in cars, buses, schools, hospitals, churches, theaters, stadiums, parks and houses. Red and white could mean love, purity, honesty and other positive things or attributes of the human kind. Even animals can sense what these colors mean to humans despite being color-blind.
Why are colors red and white so important to the human eye?... It's because of YOU.
No matter how many years we live in the flesh, it will still be a fleeting moment compared to the spirit's eternal life.
Therefore,
One should ponder this: " How wise would it be to sacrifice eternity by giving in to the immoral demands of carnal desires?"

Nothing in this world is as beautiful as their laugh
Nor their smile
When it shines all the horrible things fade away
Leaving a brief moment of possibility
Leaving a short breath of relatability
Nothing in this world is as sweet as their happiness
Nor eyes
When they let it flow all the vile things slip away
Leaving a draught of peace
Leaving a small wish vulnerability
Nothing in this world burns as much as their soul
Nor their heart
When it breaks the world shudders and quakes
Leaving a lifetime of sorrow
Leaving the sickening thought of inevitability
I feel like I remember
What better was,
But I can't see it
as clear as I see my flaws.
Yet there is proof.
In photos and videos,
a memory of who I am,
that feels like an echo.
Cause I can see it
past the clouds of gray,
That yes, in fact, there was
Such a thing as a good day.
Days where my thoughts
didn't always win.
Days where a negative magnet
didn't pull the positive from within.
I try to catch a glance,
forcing my way into that moment,
back when I wasn't saving energy
for my mind's endless torment.
I've entered every password
that used to work before.
All those “get better” tasks,
but they're not working anymore.
But I can't remember.
It doesn't matter how hard I try.
I'm locked out of my own system,
with an error code.
Telling me to die.
can you imagine?
a sacred wonderland...
built
at the top of a mountain
for all of humanity
to peacefully co-exist,
a place where
no one gets ill,
no wars are fought,
to see
what true harmony looks like.
a place where
happiness forever endures;
there are no more shadows
to indicate
when somebody will die;
all quiet valleys
at rest.
just imagine...
p at the sky,
when one looks u
one finds peace...
a place where
transient times
do not remember
the flavor of death.
i am free
to live and thrive,
never feeling sorrow and pain
here, the spirit
wakes up into
a world without an end
here, the conquest of death
by happiness will be
as long-lasting as
the peace is.
a place known as...
new jerusalem
just imagine...
“Tranquility binds the heart and soul
for peace and calm that make us whole.”
__by Poet
The gift of sweet tranquility
relies on doom's ability
to break the rhythm of true peace
that chaos often shreds to cease.
In nature there are violent storms
as a dark battle quickly forms
with clash of thunder, lightning steers
to bring unrest with many fears.
But soon the clouds part to reveal
the sun peeks out to break the seal,
return to calm and peacefulness-
the prize we pray for to possess.
And so, in life, storms come our way,
not so as clouds, but times that fray
that quiet peace within our soul
to block our heart from feeling whole-
Must pray tranquility will come
with rising of a new day's sun!
Unveil its calm and peaceful sight-
after life's stormy, restless plight,
Remaining true as our life's balm-
that tranquil, peaceful, endless calm.
finally
someone
this guy
how is he real
how is he doing this
finally
i feel loved
appreciated
he sees the real me
and still loves me
he loves me?
how does he love me
we are so different
yet exactly the same
yet he still can't look me in the eye
the sunrise is here
I'm finally happy
Revelation has begun
Ages of time arrived
The World was given a chance
Well in advance
What Biblical words had stated
Prophesied by a Prophet
Look and observe the signs
Keep praying in mine
The World will be judged, and books will be opened
Tongue confessions after confessions will come out
Chosen one’s will be granted in Heaven’s space
No need for baggage, but have your soul well packed
Faith confirms your reservation
Heaven’s new day
The train has arrived
Step aboard
Thank the Lord.
Forces of good and evil, are all around, they work to dominate and take all.
All of our life, all that we love, forces of good and evil work to dominate our life.
Life forces we pray that all of our life is good and makes us be okay, we love life and love God, we lift prayers for protection in our life.
Forces of evil, are present in our lifes, we read about the evil that harms, that corrupts, that makes us live in a lowly and depressing life.

Peace and love, flow all around, like the air we breathe we can feel it flow.
Flowing all around the joy and love of life, the times that make us feel alive, the times that make us smile with pride.
Peace is always our plan, we love to feel happy and love to feel free to pray and love and move like the wind.
Peace is a feeling of calm, like a warm cozy cup of tea, we love to feel complete and filled with good cheer.
Peace is always our plan, we love to feel happy and love to feel free to pray and love and move like the wind.
We pray for peace, for love, for all the positive outcomes in this life, like a story written in time, we pray for all the best for all of our lifetime.
Lifting prayers to God, today and always.
mornings in your essence
calm zephyrs race from dawn
existence begins its first breath
the roosting night has begun its flight
i have been patiently waiting
for the light to claim its elegance
a stir becomes a promise
a face in a flutter
as eyes open, i whisper
twinkle, twinkle, little star
a wish has filled my day
brought my traveller
through the darkness
as the emerging light
exposes the smile i hold so dear
pity the poor in spirit
they have lost the magic
the devotion to moments
seek and find the enchantment
i learned this all long ago
from Pollyanna, choose happiness
miracles surround us
we just aren't paying attention
i am, the gift you are
in the first smile you wear
you can hear deep in my heart
the rooster greets day's inception
as lips meld deep within
the devotion to moments
