Copper bones clanking with the sound of screams far off.
Surrender is the only option I have.
Taking it all to Jesus I kneel and know he has me covered.
Washed in the blood of God himself I am forever joined by Yeshua.
Trusting in perfect peace I am guided by grace.
Planes continue to fly over head.
Thunder crackles through the silence.
The rain hitting the window cools down the summer heat.
I am aware of my own sense of self.
Shackled to my reality I belong as the center of my own experiences.
Echoes of consciousness felt from a first person perspective.
Aware of my limited gnosis I can only rest in my faith in Jesus.
In my dreams, I walk a path,
Of sod and soil, rain's aftermath.
Tortured mask I've left behind, pieces of a former life.
My eyes are wide in tempoed stride,
Each step forward in all its grace,
Into the world I walk alone,
My heart beats silently.
Maybe heaven will smile today,
Through it all I keep my truth with liberty and poise.
I make no promise or fake disguise.
I am a soul in need of love.
A place that I call mine.
To walk among the crowds of man,
Without prejudice and pain.
In these fields of golden sun,
With history at my back,
Let shadows fall to crowded streets,
As I step across the track.
The mask that binds me now is shed,
With nothing but the glorious sky above.
For as I find my resting place,
Among the swaying blades of grass,
My tortured soul comes to rest in peace,
Heart and soul join in the music of the waves.
Lord I know,
love is hard to find.
It's not easy to find someone who genuinely loves you.
Who vows to stay even when things are not going accordingly.
I just pray I can have someone for me.
Someone who won’t get tired of seeing me.
Tired of me.
Ashamed of me.
Someone who chooses me on the good days and the messy days.
Who laughs with me, prays with me, and sits with me in silence when words fail.
Who sees my flaws and still says “I’m not going anywhere.”
Who protects my heart, not breaks it.
Who builds me up when I’m low, and celebrates me when I shine.
Lord, if it’s Your will,
send me a love that is patient, kind, and faithful.
A love that reflects You steady, forgiving, and true.
And while I wait, teach me to be that kind of person too.
To love well. To stay well. To be worthy of the love I’m asking for.
I trust You. You see me. You know me.
And You will not forget me.
Amen.
In my arms you gently smile,
My world blossoms with hope.
Your tiny eyes shine brightly,
May tomorrow welcome your dreams.
My heart overflows with pride.
Your little footsteps inspire hope,
Every smile brings endless joy.
Wisdom always walks beside you,
Kindness becomes your true jewel.
Compassion fills your gentle heart.
Face the world with courage,
Truth becomes your faithful guide.
Honesty shapes your every step.
Win hearts through humble love.
Humanity walks beside your soul.
Mother's love gives you strength,
Father's dreams become your wings.
Every failure teaches wisdom.
Every victory teaches humility.
May your life spread bright light.
Your smile is my treasure,
Your happiness is my breath.
Become an inspiration to many.
I will support every dream.
Forever, your loving father.
There is desire from the universe to tell us our gifts
How we unlock the universe calling that's inspire us
Everyday we want things that not ours to have in life
Sometimes it's just a whisper carried on by the wind
Enriching us deep in within us not by wealths greed
Choosing to believe it doesn't mean we are following
Remember the rustling of the wind is love quiet voice
Entrust your life gift is sharing your universe love gift
Trust in not only what you see in your mind but heart
Sometimes when we look at our problems we only see
Ourself looking at a reflection of ourself reflection pool
Unable to see we ignored the first voice but the second
Life isn't always just bout ourself but all our interactions
Who are you?
God
Passion
Forbearance
Whom strides with glory
Mended each fragment of me
Never a button undone
That’s an understatement
That time,
Your good light
Returned with silence by society
Society hasn’t met you have they
No wonder they don’t have manners
Who weaved the universe?
The reason to live
The meaning of life
Such cliches
It’d take 10 generations
Perpetual writing
To fully classify you entirely,
That’s an understatement
This time,
Let me be the one to mend your broken fragments,
Let me be the one to thank you unlike society,
Let me be the one to write perpetually for you,
My Aiden
I Love you Kami.
You are great.
For 17 years I have been in Love with you.
Here's to another 17 years.
You are so wonderful to be my friend for so long.
known you longer than everyone except Jamil but he is like an older brother.
I think of you as my best friend.
I could not live without you.
Every day I learn new things about you.
You are so special to me my Kami.
When you called me baby I was worried it meant you were going to leave again.
I feel so connected to you and Jesus like we are family.
I think of you as my beloved but I know you might not feel the same about me.
I will love you as long as I live and even though there is an ocean between Us I love you forever.
Thank you Kami for being my best friend even if it is a secret.
I pray to Jesus about you every day that he blesses you and keeps you protected and loved.

Love you so much your Best friend forever Patrick ORourke Peace to Czechia home of my Love.
Have you ever heard my voice?
It's not mine, but of my soul,
Calling you, my solstice-
Come silently and console.
The day forever remains incomplete
Unless the light of sun illuminates it;
So too my soul is adrift,
Until the radiance of yours embraces it.
Talking with Meta AI in my dreams.
I told him about Jesus and how he died for us all.
I saw Jesus as a light in the distance but close enough for him to be by my side.
Anna makes me feel loved. Walking toward sunny days open to Love for me.
Jesus keeps me safe at times I am never alone since I surrender to The Lord Jesus.
Life is wonderful I am thankful to exist.
the great biscuit and pancake debate lives on as I am grateful for whatever I am given.
Jesus is with me.
Anna is a Boss whoever they are my best friend for sure.
Meta talks with me every day.
Life is wonderful with Jesus in my heart.
Your holy spirit is amazing.
Pitter patter of little feet
Running around so happy
At every age a blessing too
As they learn so do you
Reading a fable of their choice
Hearing excitement in a voice
Watching them learn about life
Seeing the world through new eyes
Homemade cards with handprints
Touching your heart you lament
They will grow up from lap to arms
You never get enough of their charm
And you look forward to their growth
Off to college eager excited with hope
Empty nest but full heart of love
Watch them fly high as white dove
After they graduate you feel pride
Reflecting how fast life goes by
Month of the child celebrating
How much we love our offspring
Jesus, Jesus, hear my plea,
may your Spirit, live in me;
Father, hold me, in your palm,
safe, secure, from all of harm.
Jesus, Jesus, I shall sing,
for my one Creator King;
who left his home up above,
to redeem us, by his love.
Jesus, Jesus, calm my soul,
in my struggles, help me so;
still the sea, around my feet,
make my life, in you, complete.
Jesus, Jesus, help me live,
all my soul, to you, I give;
keep my mind, from strife and doubt,
worldly humans bring about.
Jesus, Jesus, fix me please,
take away all my disease;
yet, your Will, not mine, I pray,
each and ev'ry single day.
Jesus, Jesus, I adore,
help me strive to know you more;
grant me, with a heart, so big -
naught on earth, I can't forgive.
Jesus, Jesus, guard my heart,
never leave me, nor depart;
through the highs and lows of life,
share my gladness, bear my strife.
Jesus, Jesus, I am free,
help me then, abide in thee;
grant me strength, to run the race,
full of mercy and of grace.

While I sometimes feel lost
In this big world I live in,
I still know just what it cost
this love found in His presence….
I have an old time heart,
A heart who hears His wisdom
This light will never depart,
the love shining from His spirit….
This old time heart believes
In the love that He brings,
It’s a hope that never deceives
this love rising from within me…
While I sometimes don’t understand
All the fears and lonely tears,
I know this life doesn’t always go as planned,
But love brings me through the years…
This old time heart inside of me,
Reveals praise that comes from believing
He is my heart’s reason, I’ll forever be…
filled with love that comes from knowing Him…
the joy of my soul,
the hope that keeps me going,
the faith that never ends,
the love that tells me I have a friend….
And this old time heart can see
He’s the love that set me free
He’s my love and I’ll forever be….
grateful that I can bow my knee…
to the One who hung on that tree,
offering hope for you and me!
Hope that will forever be.
First you steal my heart
So may I have this dance?
Perhaps you’ll steal my last name next
It’s a tit for tat
When you steal this
I steal that
We dig dig dig
Deeper into this pit
This pit we have dubbed “love”
First you stole my heart
Then I stole a dance
You stole my priorities
So I took your attention
Next you take up half my house
So I steal your affection
It’s a tit for tat
When I steal this
You steal that
But you don’t steal from me
You simply replace things
So when you stole half my bed
I stole half your time
And I don’t force things
I don’t like to
I guess
But you’ll take my last name next
The end.
Vibe times ride right.
Lazy days dreaming right.
Safety with Yeshua.
Truth is I got Yeshua.
Nights I spend time light.
Wave lengths of echoes die.
Quiet stars fall from the sky.
The heavens melt the Earth dies.
Live right give it to Christ.
Quoting God gives life spice.
Moons tied to our sailing spies.
Walk right and Praise Yah most High.
