haiku 7: the sea

                evaporating...
                giving up water daily,
                the sea remains full.

Where Is Jesus

When things go this way
I pray
Oh God come to my aid
 Faith,
Hope fade
Giving up to praise
Whenever Jesus delays.

Held In a Hand

Man with a magic.
Glowering,evil-looking.
Some magic within.

Days and nights practiced.
Sometimes hungry, thirsty, parched.
Never giving up.

Finding Love




Finding love 
is not hard 
when you care.  

Giving up 
you receive.  
Exchanging,  

love becomes 
a true joy 
to treasure.

Off the Booze

Off the booze
But I slipped up 
Today had a 
Couple nips
And was on my way
Not giving up my date
Cuz to go got a long way
More one day
At a time

Life Upside Down With You

If you ever feel giving up
Something at the end of sadness
Then, give me some time
I'll take the moment 
I'll spend my life 
Life upside down with you.

One Crazy Dream

After last night's dream my sanity's fled
Dreamt of a daisy with a girl for a head
With magic words
She talked to birds
I'm giving up pickles just before bed

I Had To Let Them Go

Seems the little blue bird’s taken flight
But they’re not giving up on the fight
And with Taylor Lorenz
Reaching out on LinkedIn
Ligma Johnson gonna be alright

Giving Up

To, 
    give up on life
Would be, 
               a bereavement
But, 
       to live it to the fullest
Would be, 
               an achievement

Giving Up

Sometimes I just wanna give up cause I feel its no use.

I just wanted us to call it truce.

Just when you think love is enough.

You find out things will always be tough.

Giving Up To a Higher Power

You win.  I withdraw.
I acknowledge your terms.
Embrace my weak flesh.
Love me that I may admit
Defeat.  Make your will be done.

Untitled

I’m giving up
Life is empty now
My dust is blowing
In the wind
Because of sin
I’m ready to die
As fast as I can
At my own hand
All is over for
Me, because
I chose to
Not be

Moan, Moan, Moan

When will the lights come on,
people wake up,
too much is wrong,
digging our own rut,
giving up our home,
jobs being cut,
picking our bones,
kick in the gut,
moan, moan, moan.

Keep Up

Keeping up,
Or at least trying to.
Giving up,
Not what i want to do.
Letting go,
But not of you.
Please, give me a clue.
Something to do.
I am giving up,
But not giving up on you.

Before the Silence

Terminal poetry…
death by the word

Selling a heartbeat
for every breath

Giving up life
for each new phrase

Buried
—inside what’s heard

Something to do.

But i will never give up on you.

Giving Up On Vain Dreams

I would give up on vain dreams...the ones that won't let me see how
life is lived without the tears and the fears of being unloved:
if one of them drew a beautiful rainbow in my sunless sky!

Missing

My muse is missing
If you find it please return it to me
Sadness fills my world
Silent tears I cry
I want it back urgently
Never giving up hope
Give it back to me please

The Hardest Pill To Swallow

Letting go -
The hardest pill to swallow
But you have to. 
The art of sacrifice - 
Stop believing in lies
Open you eyes.
Giving up -
Not the best decision
But you have to stop those delusions.

Sweat To See the End

The sweat of sweet effort
And not quitting nor running
Because no road is short
To the goal of winning
Giving up is not a option
And success through work
To reach your dreams there can be no caution

Forgiveness

Forgiveness
Of ourselves and others
Requires 
Giving up all ego;
Inviting in humility~
Venerating
Everyone as created
Near to God's own heart;
Everyone needing
Sympthy and Christ's 
Salvation.
