Real Life Rescue
Yesterday, while walking home, I saw some people who Were gazing past the river rail, But why? I had no clue. Two cops were there as well and so I looked to where they leaned And saw the body of a man; That’s why they’d intervened. More people gathered and I learned That he was still alive. He’d either jumped or fallen; No one knew if...

We have got to make disciples. Fun nights and pizza nights are not going to sustain us. – Francis Chan Breaking through, to a heart who needs to see, Beyond the beauty, to the center of God’s grace. Breaking through, for the One who hung on a tree, Believing, in my soul, there are tears I must face. Breaking through,...

Leave of absence This is NOT a poem Just my real life
Hey all I know that I haven't been active on here for a while. I've been having some health issues lately that have been keeping me sidelined. That and trying to mentally prepare for a 7th major spinal fusion operation with revisional repairs to the current hardware already inside of my back. I'm about to...

Real Life Trolling
When you were paid to recite a script, do it well, but don't overdo what you were paid to do. When you hate someone for a pay, just do it, but don't take it too seriously. Remember, there were others who came before you and there are others who will come after you. Don't do their job...

It Is Time To Live Together
What’s the reason of hate? To hide love? All these feelings are real, My mind manufactures only to be manipulated. Afraid to love that’s why we hide behind “facts and language”? If you’re tired of being lied to and you know it clap your hands. if you’re tired of being fed a narrative to stop your thinking, Can I get...

Describing About Real Life

There are moments of pure happiness, When we feel we're blessed with success. But then come the times that we fall, And we wonder if we can stand at all. It's in those moments that...

'til There Was You In Real Life Pt 1
My witchy teardrops, dandelion oil, mystical, magickal dust Faerie Tales, cockatiels, sandwiched between rusted trust Of movie reels, bootlegged steals, cyber-world, & for reals Myself as a wild-child & lonely found you across the sea At the time you didn't know that soon you'd be her final reason to breathe And you'd be her reason to believe You'd crack the door...

Real Not Fiction
Real Not Fiction A hole is a hole said the Mule As he stuck his stump up a slapper This saying was mirrored by another Who told a story of his friends And what recently happened One long term friend has a gal They’d been together 7 years And planned to get married Spending a lifetime together Already lovers and more You know how it goes So...
