Addictions
-Addictions-
(To Sins)
How do we cope
As we turn glum
With our fallen hopes
And we feel numb.
And never which way to go
As those feelings stay locked up in our head
Because we will never know
And without our addictions to turn too we will feel like we are dead
This is why we should try and open the gate
Let someone try to find the key
Before it is actually too late
And if we let this happen they can save you and me
Even though they might not know every answer
They can help us try to understand
Of why leading a life like this is like having cancer
And we need in our life to help our problems disband,
Yes those things are very simple to learn
If we let the Lord and our Friends
In to help us with our concerns
And they can help with us as our new lives begins

Feeling Abandon and Lost Inside
The first thing that I should do is look in the mirror and say what is my name,
This is one reason why I feel so abandon and lost inside,
There is times that I cannot even remember who's my family or friends,
Yes, if you had this feeling lost inside then you would see what it feels like to be me,
As I think of this tears come rolling down my eyes,
Because I feel like my life is hidden away is a deep dark disguise.
Having these feelings or thoughts give me a roller coaster of emotions,
As it makes feel like a freak or a failure or like a creature feature.
Forgetting the memories of my life is hard, and it hurts,
I hope that if you are someone that reads this that you take in what I am trying to say,
Those memories are the ways in life that we will always remember when it is to laugh, cry or smile.
There probably will be a time in our life when those thoughts will be gone.
So please try to take in any and all the memories of your life,
Because as I said earlier it will hard to remember those precious moments,
It is hard, but for me to remember things I have to write my feelings and memories down into words.
For me to even remember life.
Thank you, Lord for giving me this chance to still live.

Rare Thoughts that Never Go away
Has anyone out there reading this
Ever thought about that one person that is always in your thoughts and they never go away?
Well many of us out there are too scared of what or whom we miss
And then there are some of us that can't stop thinking of them throughout the day
Well I am this kind of person that just met a person not long ago
And I am here to say that my thoughts are of this person that I really admire
There are so many people that say how you can feel that way about someone who you barely know
I simply tell them that I trust in the Lord's every desire
Even though finding that one kind of person in everyone's life is rare
Who is always willing to listen and be gentle and kind
I hope that everyone can find this type of person that seems to always be there
Because I want her to know this is why she is always on my mind
And this is why these thoughts never go away
Because of the friendship that has come from the Heaven Above
This is why I am glad, for these thoughts are here to stay
And hopefully those thoughts and feelings will turn from friendship to passionate love

Words can't say enough….(Thank you)
Thank you….
I now feel strong because I had someone to pick me up when I was down
Thank you….
For being there when others looked down on me
Thanks you….
Because you never gave up on me
Thank you....
For showing that there is a difference between right and wrong
Thank you….
For helping me, put my shattered heart back to together
Thank you….
For giving me a second chance in life

As the Sun Rose- A Gift from Above
I can remember as the sun rose on us that day,
Behind the beachside ocean shore,
It slowly went high on display.
It's beauty was pure.
This is a day that will always be tender to my heart,
When I saw you all of my problems seem all of a sudden come to a cease,
And that is when everything right began to start.
Thank you for being there and helping see the love and feel the peace.
Thank the Lord for being there and leading us to meet face to face,
I could just see that was surely a gift from Above,
This is what brought us to embrace.
This is why remembering this day is something I will always Love

Carry Our Cross of Shame
Life can sometimes lead to hopeless, confusion and feeling torn in life,
We all have these feelings at times, but with the Lord's Strength it will help us through any strife.
There are times when all of hopes are going to die,
This is when we need to reach down and get some and never give up, but try.
So as we go looking for hope going through the dark wilderness of shame,
Try to hold that head high and make that hope turn into the reality game.
Reality only comes when faith is a way of life and we try to do every idea until it is complete.
By doing this will show the Lord and world there is no need to cheat.
Because our head will be held high even though we will still,
'Carry our Cross of Shame, '
And we will lead a graceful and happy life in His Name.

Dad-Face to Face to that Eternal Place
Today is a day that I saw my dad really sick and it made me really scared,
As the time went on and his health never got better, we heard something that we really feared.
This made us feel so upset because there was nothing that we could do.
The sadness starts to hit our family and sets in the tears and especially hard for me too.
It is hard, but there is something that we are going to believe that he can hear us of what is being said.
This is the main reason that we are here next to he never wanting to leave her bed.
My dad raised us up to be strong and never to give up hope,
And no matter what happens, he will always be living in our hearts and helping us learn to cope.
We want to pray and say thank you Lord for guarding him up under your wing,
By providing her life with the shelter to whatever the pain will bring.
Yes, this is saddens us and has caused our hearts to awaken,
But by her believing and trusting in you, we know where se will be taken.
We are here to give our life towards you for knowing that you are taking mom to that Eternal Place.
Missing him here will be sad not being here,
But it makes us happy because he is with you will see him again face to face.

Loving Power
Throughout the good times and the bad times that caused smiles or tears.
I need to say thank you because you have helped through
those times a lot over the last few years.
During those times you reminded that I should have hope.
To take those problems and I need to be strong and learn how to cope.
It is hard not to have you here but my memories of happiness
because of everything that it brings.
And I will always have you in my heart and it will remind me of a lot of things.
This is why my thoughts you will never go away no matter what hour
Because of you, I feel your Loving Power.

Try to Understand Me Too (Autism)
Today might not be my day,
You might understand what I want to say.
There are times that I want to wave my hand,
And you might think it is something that I am trying to demand.
Can you hear the soun
ds as I pound my feet,
Well maybe not, but all I am doing is trying to sound a beat.
Do you remember when I read the book with you?
It was about the ghost and you made me laugh when you said BOO.
I love to hear it when we whisper and shout Lullabies, songs and rhymes,
To me I wonder, if they can hear us while we do this during school time.
This is one reason why I always say things over and over again,
And when you try to stop me, I get mad every now and then.
I only wish I can understand everything that I'm being told,
But to me it feels like I am always being controlled.
Can you remember when you asked the class a question and I wanted to answer it when was not my turn,
All I am just trying to do is show you that I can remember things that I learn.
I try to understand why I get so mad and I cannot control myself and I hurt you,
When I think about it I get sad and cry because I wish someone could, Try to Understand Me Too.
I wish the other kids would let me play,
If they took the time to talk to me, they might understand things my way,
I also love it when you want to teach me how to pray,
And you ask the Lord to help thru this day,
I know that you understand me and even, if no one ever wants to even take a guess,
So, this is my ways of saying thank you and telling you that I will always try and do my best.

Cancer-Lord and Family is My Cure
What, why, how can this be
I know this is not happening to me
As the tears are running down my eyes
Hating this feeling that I am know starting to despise
Something that I have already went through
I got over it once and I guess it is something that I got to get used too
All I ever hear them say
Is that you are okay
Because they have a cure
It is funny to me because sometime I feel they are not really sure
I am sorry this poem that I sound so rude
And so crude
Boy I am so glad that everyone can't feel what I feel
Because then they would know that this pain is so real
As it hurts my heart, body and soul and at times it seems to get worst
But never hurt as day of my first
There is nothing worse than looking like a skeleton with all of these wire and tubes
And feeling like I am a science project in a class cube
Well I know there was a lot that I had to say
But I had to get it out, because I really know I am going to be okay
So yes as that pain will come and go
This is something that I surely know
That our days come and go really fast
But I know the Lord is going to keep me next to my Family and I am here to make it last

Understand the Blood that He Shed
Before He left this unholy ground,
The Lord came to Him with angels with little sound.
While many of them were scared to believe and scorned,
Many were still there to show much they believed and mourned.
As those whips hit and tore His flesh,
None of them knew that the Lord was there to protect him with His loving mesh.
Only if they knew that while Christ dragged the Cross he fell to the ground,
That with the Lord in His Loving Heart, that He could handle anything that comes around.
And as those thorns were stuck in his head,
Hopefully one day they will finally understand the Blood that He Shed.
As that sun light hit the cross,
Maybe their understanding finally did come and it is to the rightful gain not a loss.
Even though they had there could have tried while they were there to live.
Hopefully, we can see it as the only truth and see everything that He is here to give.
So please take their thoughts of what they saw of Christ,
With His Love, then we all can rise to the Eternal Life against anything that can be enticed.

Do You Ever?
Do you ever?
Dream that you live in a world where you can be happy forever and have a great life
I did and everything just got turn around and twist
Everything is not good and feel like it all your fault that this happening
You can't blame yourself for what happen because
What comes around, goes around
Do you ever?
Dream that you live in a world where life is perfect and nothing going happening
I did and stuff happen and at end
Everything is ok for me
I learn that I shouldn't blame myself and just live with it
I know that sometimes I look back on what happen and I learn that I need to just let it go and move on
Do you ever?
Dream that your life is going stay same
I did and out of no where
This happen and I didn't expect it
At that time I didn't know what to do and
Feel like it all my fault and wish it never happen
Do you ever?
Dream that you live in a world where you can be happy forever and have a great life
I did and everything just got turn around and twist
Everything is not good and feel like it all your fault that this happen
My advice to you is don't be upset with yourself
Try to go along with what happen and remember is not your fault
Do you ever?

To Control and Hold Back the Tears
Not many Americans really know what goes on,
And why when we get home so many of us veterans have in common,
Even though a lot of our memories are not the same,
We still have the same feelings as we lost our buddies and still can remember them name by name.
It all starts as we go out and go on patrol,
We pray to come back in one piece, which is our goal.
And yes, this is something that everyone prays for,
Because we see so much that hurts our hearts more and more.
To see our buddies get thrown and blown around,
Some are hurt and some just wounded, but others are heaven bound.
Coming back home is something that we all have to deal with and it is very hard,
Especially as we see our friends being buried in a National Cemetery grave yard.
To think that we will always remember these things as we get older and go through the years,
It's hard for us not to think about it and hold back the tears.
Some of us come with deep echoes and ringing sounds in our mind,
This causes us to lose control and to keep our way of thinking in a bind.
It is really hard for a lot of people to understand what it feels like to come back,
And to always feel like you are under attack.
Yes, this time of pain and is hard to control.
with help from the Lord and our family, we try to calm our soul.
As the time goes on and more and more of us are coming back and being diagnosed,
It finally helps us come out of our deep and wanting to be alone, and comatose.
Thank you to everyone that wants to try to understand what it feels like for us to go through and see what we see.
Because in our lives, it is finally here to show us that there is someone who cares for them and for me.

A Proper Focus
When we focus on what we see, our mind’s not focused on Eternity,
On those eternal things above, that we receive, through God’s Love.
Things we focus on here below, earthly things, we’ve come to know,
Can fill our heart with undue fear, when we limit our focus down here.
For our focus turns into concern, and a heart inside begins to yearn,
But not prompted by pleasantries, but, the heart filled with anxieties,
About the things we can’t control, while worry begins to take its toll,
With concerns far above our realm, a heart will just be overwhelmed.
Our concerns cannot be all ignored, but, must be given to The Lord,
Who sits above Heavenly realms, and our concerns He overwhelms.
With His Eternal Authority over all, earthly concerns to Him are small,
And in His time, I need to learn, He handles each and every concern.
Concerns, when they overwhelm us, lead us away from simple trust,
The simple faith we place in Him, when Christ saved us from our sin.
Through our trial, God gets Glory, as it was in Israel’s Exodus story,
Even with Pharaoh’s hardened heart, came a Glory that didn’t depart.
Today, our eyes should always be, focused on The Lord of Eternity,
The same one who delivered Israel, will work in our life His good will,
Today take on His yoke that’s light, for what He does, He does right,
To work out His purpose in the life, of all who belong to Jesus Christ.

Lifeless, Life
Yo no entiendo lo que es
Everything is just a haze
Yo no entiendo lo que es
Everything is just a haze
I just need
I just need to become your disease
I could be
I could be all that you will believe
I will freeze
I will freeze and distort all your dreams
You will feed
You will feed enough to never get away
I make you feel like yourself
Don't think of asking for help
Just stay
I will take you away
My drug is everything I wanted her to be
She helps me deal and run away from life
I couldn't cope and wouldn't even try
When the well's running dry
That is how I was meant to be
Is it me? Everything that you need is in me
I could be
I could be all that you will believe

My drug is everything I want it to be
I never thought that I'd be down here begging, down on my knees
But hey, it's my life and I think it's not funny
I chose it myself and that's all that you owe me
For life, life, life, life, life, life, life...lifeless...

My drug is everything I want it to be
I never thought that I'd be down here begging, down on my knees
But hey, it's my life and I think it's not funny

Come and Be My Hero
I wish my hero would come and save me now
Cause I'm sick and tired of this life
Tired of crying a million tears
Ready to get out of here
I feel like I'm locked up
And I can't get out
I want to escape but theres no where to escape to
And I wish you could see me now
See how broken I am
I wonder would you even bother trying to fix me
Do you care that I am broken into tiny thousand pieces
I feel confused now
And I don't know who to turn to but you
Cause you understand me
I don't want anybody else to save me
I just want you to save me
I want you to be my hero
You're the one I need
I need you here saving me
Save me from this life
Please come and be my hero

A Sunday Prayer 11
Dear Lord I am coming today
to you for some answers,
which keep plaguing me.
Answers for which you can only give.
Why it is each time you seem to open a door for me,
yet when I reach it to go in,
the door slams in my face.
So many times in my life this has happened,
my life of joy one minute is lead to despair the next.
Yet to my friends the door stays open for them.
It makes me feel like crying instead of carrying on.
I give my unconditional love to everyone,
friend and foe alike.
Yet your love like my late parents
keeps turning me away.
What have I done so very wrong
you want to deny the goals I seek in my life?
I cannot deny you have given me things,
a loving wife and family friends from all over the world.
Therefore, why then do you deny my dreams of a better life,
and dash them every time they come close.
Dear Lord you know the answers,
please help me to understand.
Because without those answers
I do not feel any kind of man.
So I am turning to you
Dear Lord help me understand.

Love Of The Common Man
Ive been burned in my prime
The simple things in life
Seem so hard to learn sometimes
And it takes so long
Catch it while you can
Too late tomorrow
And everyone
Said we all know what comes of that
Living in your pockets and talking through your hat
But it wont take long
To turn your head around
Too late tomorrow
cause everyone needs the love of the common man
Turn the world around
Too late tomorrow
cause everyone
Everyone is waiting, just anticipating on you
Wont you make a showing everybody knows what to do
Take a dive from your ivory tower
And fall on everyone will catch you, everyone
I would be so pleased to spend some time
To hear a little talk about whats been on your mind
cause it dont take long
To turn my head around
If it comes easy
cause everyone needs the love of the common man
Turn the world around
Too late tomorrow
cause everyone

Dawn
Do you know what it's like to feel dead at dawn?
To have slept sleep fragmented and feel battered and torn?
Do you know what its like to feel cast aside?
To feel that you're nothing, no arms open wide?
Do you know how that emptiness feels?
When your own weird imaginings become more than dreams?
Do you know that weird feeling of what's going on?
When all seems a nonsense and reality's gone?
Do you know how rejection hits sharp at the heart?
And makes you feel worthless and not know where to start?
Do you think of the other or just of yourself?
When things get so painful and you're out of your depth?
Do you ever once ponder on just how I feel?
Or do you once think that my feelings are real?
Or do you define things in a different way
And just wish that those things would all go away?
Here we agree more than you'd know
These feelings I have I just wish they would go
But wish as I may it's not worth the thought
They stay there, they haunt me and torture and taunt
But, then, as you say, its my problem not yours
So, all I can do is not enter the door
That once had a welcome and feelings inside
And so it is now that we have to decide
If we should move forwards or give it all up
It's so simple you see when enough is enough.

Nothing could happen to me
Life is a gamble so i
Should live life more carefully
But all I know is that i
Control my own destiny
I used to look at others
Instead of me blaming me

Dont ask yourself why
Just look to the sky
Believe that soon youll see the other side

That through all the struggle
Theres a bright road
At the end of the tunnel
Now you should know
Whatever your dilemma may be
Youll learn
Life is worth it
Watch the tables turn
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Whenever you feel troubled
With problems coming your way
Dont ever get discouraged
Theres always a better day
We all dont know the answers
Believe and trust when I say
That havin faith is always
The way to make things okay

Thats right
