A Touch of Love

Straight from my heart, these words I share.
To let you know, just how much I care.
A touch of love, I hope you feel.
To help you out, when your ready to heal.

I offer a gift, a gift that is true.
To give it away, in all that you do.
A gift of happiness, peace, and yes even love.
This gift is given, straight from our father above.

Some call me a friend, but Jesus is my name.
I share all your feelings, I take away the blame.
Happy or sad, I know your feelings well.
The hearts that are lonely, it is there I will dwell.

Open your hearts, and let us come in.
Our father and I, we can forgive your sin.
Ask me of truth, let your heart lead the way.
Repent and follow me, for soon will be the day.

Anger

It's an adrenaline rush

and a feeling that is true

I don't like to get angry

because I don't know what I'll do

I have no objection 

to punching a brick wall

or hurt someone 

so the police they will call

I will cut myself

with a cold steel blade

My anger is violent

and it will not fade

Pain will not slow me

it just makes me worse

And the one who made me angry

through there bloody mouth will curse

I've even been tempted

to kill someone

It becomes a joke to me

and it starts to be fun

I know this is bad

and it must be controlled

But when I become angry

I can be very bold

And now I hope 

you all understand why

I try not to get mad

because if I do, I know I will die

Birth Control

It's against the law to kill someone,
who hurts you in some way.
But murder is always justified,
by mothers everyday.

When you think about abortion,
do you see the child inside?
The babies life you want to stop,
has no where else to hide.

You tell yourself many things,
like it doesn't have a soul.
Think of the future your about to destroy,
by using birth control.

There are many ways to save it's life,
for the mothers who do not care.
And adoption is the answer,
for a couple in despair.

A Childs Prayer

Dear Lord,

As I kneel down next to my bed tonight.
Protect me from the monsters, who stay out of
sight. Bless my mommy and daddy, in all that
they do. Forgive my older brother, for what
he said about you.

Take care of me, as I dream away. Help
me to make it to, the very next day. Please
let my enemies have peace and happiness. I know
you will love them, as well as bless.

Please let all my dreams, and wishes
come true. The love in my heart, is only
for you. I guess I should go, for now,
good night. Please let your love shine,
so I will have a night light.

Amen

Battlefield Earth

The battle that was fought in heaven,
is being fought on Earth today.
The good against the evil,
it seems the only way.

Every one of us is immortal,
but we were placed on this world to fight.
We strike in the brightness of day,
and we conquer in the darkness of night.

No matter what the faith you live,
good and evil exists in all.
Whatever time of day it is,
evil must always fall.

When our retirement comes to us,
heaven is where we'll stand.
But the battle will continue on,
in the palm of God's right hand.

Another Sleepless Night

Can't put my mind to rest, it's another sleepless night.
My eye's are wide open, and it seems a constant fight.
I lay here in thought, about my long boring day.
Daydreaming of tomarrow, and the bills I must pay.

I toss and I turn, trying to find comfort in this bed.
Punching my pillows, so I can have a place for my head.
After a few minutes, the cycle must again repeat.
Then there is an itching sensation, that begins in my feet.

After laying here for an hour, and going through this sherade. 
I get up and go to the refridgerator, for a midnight raid.
Now that I have a full stomach, maybe I'll have better luck.
But another hour passes, and this is really begining to suck.

It's running close to two o'clock, and my eye's have yet to close.
Then there is another itch, except this time it's my nose.
My eyes begin to get heavy, and I'm hoping I will sleep.
And then I hear my alarm clock, beep, beep, beep.

By now it's four o'clock, and I still haven't slept a wink.
My eyes hurt so much now, they hurt to even blink.
I drag myself out of bed, so I can move forward with my day.
And hope that I will sleep tonight, or there will be hell to pay.

A Time To Learn

Close your eyes, and look inside.
Find that child, who's trying to hide.
He's the one who's lost and sad.
He feels very lonely, and often times bad.

Find that person, deep within you.
Let him know, that your love is true.
He is very ashamed, and full of fear.
Tell him the good things, that he needs to hear.

It's a time to learn, and a time to grow.
Make peace with yourself, so you will know.
That it's okay to hurt, but not to dwell.
Because then you create, your very own hell.

Build up his confidence, and embrace him tight.
Tell him that you love him, every day and night.
Build up his pride, and also his self-esteem.
Tell him it's okay, to always have a dream.

It's a time to learn, about the person in you.
Let go of the past, and the hurt you went through.
Forgive and forget, because it's  a new day.
And keep talking to him, in your special way.

Angel

Have you ever seen an angel,
on this planet we call Earth?
They say that there was a lot,
during the time of Jesus' birth.

But are angels hard to find,
if you look and can't find one?
Or are they playing hide and seek,
in the warmth of the summer sun?

I have seen and angel play,
as ridiculous as it may be.
Her smile was bright and beautiful,
and she was a good friend to me.

Then the Lord had called her home,
on a snowy winters day.
Now she is in Heaven,
with lots of room to play.

We have missed her so much,
throughout all of the years.
And every time December comes,
we always shed some tears.
