How Long Has It Been

It's been seventeen years since innocence was bliss
It's been twelve years since life sought after meaning 
It's been ten yars since my mind was controlled by myself
It's been five years since I left my life of drama and pain
It's been four years since stepped out of the shell and wall I was trapped behind
It's been two years since my heart was unattached from someone elses
It's been seven weeks since my heart was broken by the one I loved
It's been five weeks since my mind brought up the question
It's been four weeks since I looked at your image
It's been one second since I reminisced on our memories
It will be never until I forget the love i felt towards you.

Work Undone

The battle is not over; a victory has not been won Until all the hearts are filled with Christ, there's still work to be done The true test of his followers will be set on Judgment Day There's no escape from his grasp, not one soul shall slip away He paid the price for our sins when he went to be crucified With thorns and nails throughout his body, our Lord Jesus Christ had died Before an utter ceased to exist, Jesus spoke these words through "Forgive them Father", for they had sinned, "They know not what they do" Why is it that when our days are numbered, God receives more and more tears? It is because man claims the end is close, that they have more to fear? God is willing to forgive and furthermore to forget. Even though his saints have backslid, he loves us just as the day we met Many test his almighty power, and some might dare to doubt it I am a willing and standing witness, whatever you may need my God can supply it My life at one time seemed to have no point, my faith once went blank. He delivered both my mind and soul; I cry and scream "Lord, Thanks" He is our shelter and our protection when the devil tries to grab us He heals and restores us, fills our hearts full with gladness When our faith may start to fail us, he swoops us in his wings Our great and merciful God above, can grant us everything So if you think to take a break from sowing a Christian seed Remember there's a battle brewing, more Christians is what we need.

If Not My Lord, Then the Devil

If the Lord is our Defender, who is it that offends us?
If the Lord is our Salvation, who is it that spites us?
If the Lord is our Healer, who is it that sickens us?  
If the Lord is our Light, who is it that darkens the world around us?
If the Lord is our Strength, who is it that weakens us?
If the Lord maketh us whole, who is that breaks us?
If the Lord is our Redeemer, who is it that brings through tears? 
If the Lord is our Love, who is it that wants hate to be felt?
If the Lord is our Shield, who is it that causes us harm?
If the Lord is our Provider, who is it that taketh away? 
If the Lord is our Voice from above, who is that silences us?
If the Lord gives us riches, who is it that sends poor strife?
If the Lord is our body and blood, who is it that causes disease?
If the Lord gives us hope, who is it that knocks all hope away? 
If the Lord feeds us, who is it that starveth our bodies?
If the Lord brings us life, who is it to challenge Him by trying to take our souls?
I speak and say to you, only the devil would be insane enough to challenge my Lord 
and Savior.

This Is What It Is

Love is for those who care 
hate is for those who hate 
friends are those who will be there till the end 
parents are those to say never be late 
You said you loved me because you cared 
but at the same time you said you hated me 
as long as your there I will never leave 
Why do u make me mad? 
try to make me sad? 
try to make me cry? 
do you want me to die? 
You say u love me 
then u play games with my heart 
and eventually tear it all apart 
you said you would always love me 
I thought it was true 
but all awhile it was just you being you 
I will never love you no matter what 
this may be true.. 
so anyone whos asking better not say I do

Straight From the Heart

No, my love for you hasn't been lost.
No, my mind hasn't lost the memories of us.
No, my lips haven't stopped yearning for the suttle taste of your lips.
No, my body hasn't pulled away from your touch.
Yes, I do love the sound of your voice in my ear at night.
Yes, I love getting to know more and more about you.
Yes, my mind ponders and wanders when thoughts of you float inside.
Yes, my heart skips a beat when I see you.
Yes, I think about you with every passing second.
Yes, you will have my heart until my last breath.
Yes, I love the feel of you even being inches away from me.
Yes, I love the look in your eyes when you get an adrenaline rush of excitement.
Yes, I love the sight of the things you are passionate about.
Yes, I like how you seem interested in my future plans.
Yes, I love how every time I close my eyes your image pops in my dreams.
Yes, I love how my heart smiles when I see you. 
Yes, I want you to be happy with me.
No, I will never let you go.
And, yes, to answer your final question: I do love you. 
More than I could have ever imagined.

I Just Cant

I just cant close my eyes and blink this away.
I just cant keep saying that I dont love you.
I cant keep wondering what happened that made us this way.
I cant put my mind to ease when it comes to you.
I cant sit back and say that I like it this way.
I cant say that you never had my heart.
I cant just say that what we had wasnt true.
I cant say I like the pain.
I cant say that I dont wish for better. 
I cant say you didnt promise me this wouldnt happen.
I cant sit and not cry about my hurt.
I cant get up and pretend like it didnt happen.
I cant stop and react any differently than I am.
I just cant forget you.
I just cant throw in the towel and give up.
I just cant accept a sorry.
I cant go and find another man.
I just cant turn away from the past.
I just cant explain why I cant let go.
I just cant stop the love I once felt.

Mixed Emotions

Closing in on me like a room without a light
Bearing down like the sun on my skin
It tears away at me like anforgettable lyric
Skiing on the edge of the truth and a lie
Have you heard of it, you probable have, 
It's despair, what a a horror.
It's praying that you wake up the next day
The wish that your arms will still welcome back those who left
Trying to decide if I should stay or go 
The thought that I might turn away
Switching my mind about things that I want
It's hope, what a world would be without it...
It's waking up with a message on your pillow that expresses one's true feelings
Seperating the hate, from the feeling too hard to explain
Not caring about the rumors that you know in fact lack truth
Hearing those three special words that will make or break a relationship
Have you felt it, the tug on your heart?
It's called love, and that's all someone really wants..
To be loved.

Contemplating On the Past

Sleeping, then I awaken; eyes wide open just looking at the future,
Thinking, crying, laughing, and viewing the movie on my past.
I try to close my eyes, but something isn't letting them shut,
Trying to get you off my mind, but nothing seems to work.
Glancing back on the way things used to be,
Living life and loving each others comfort.
Thinking of why it ended, why in those circumstances.
Feeling like the anger inside of me wants to seep out.
Walking back and forth in my mind, making sure everything lines up correctly.
What was the outcome at the end of the day?
Will things ever turn back to normal?
How do you think I feel?
This situation has me contemplating on the past
Feeling like the anger trapped inside needs to seep out, and be heard by everyone.
Running mile after mile trying to run away from the problems set in front of me.
Trying to create new questions in my head that need to be discovered.
Like what was the outcome at the end of this journey I took?
How do you think I felt when the feelings couldnt be explained by just one word.       
This whole scenario just has me contemplating, contemplating, and once again Cotemplating on the Past.

What Love Is

I do finally understand what love is.
It's not blood and suffering entirely.
True love is respect, admiration,Compassion, and kindness,
Freely given by an unafraid, devoted human being.
It's not the pleasure you get from the intimacy,
It's the comfort felt when he's still there the next morning.
It's not the uneasy tension when a fight expels,
It's the strength to get over it and still be together.
It's not simply holding the door for me,
It's holding my hand and never letting go.
It's not the gazes at each other wondering what could be,
It's stepping out and taking the chance in hope hearts will connect.
So yes, I do know what love is,It's the bubbly, chilling, 
unafraid feeling to be irrevocably 100% all in,to get hurt,and still be strong.

But I Did

Relentless hearts sleeping estranged for the night,
Running from the truth, and shedding tears along the way.
From the very beginning I was there, and like a circus you put on an act.
Through space and performance the blank empty stage stood, and I was there alone.
Im forever yours, faithfully will I be is what left your lips, 
just to be regretted down the road.
I wonder what made you say that?
Now it seems like we are two strangers,
not speaking, not gazing, not holding, no recognition of the past memoirs.
I fell for you, opened up to you, 
I let everyone who tried to slip in test you.
You fell for the bait and hooked to the line, yet still I stayed. 
When I first cast a glimpse at your face, I saw a dream of wonder,
Now that dream that made me strong,
Has turned into a nightmare that tears at my heartstrings. 
What is left to say about the realization I discovered?
You were not ready for a relationship ever after a year.
Feelings were tossed in and minds were boggled. 
You flenched at the mere thought of commitment.
I cant seem to get over exactly how strong I was, 
To bring myself to question you,
To let you go.....but I did.
