But God

Alone at the bottom

Lost at sea

Drifting down the wrong fork

Why is this me?

Squint up toward the sky

Reaching to heaven itself

But my soul is too much

Back down we fell.

I see all the things I have

But nothing I can take

We thought the stuff brings smiles

Yes, and they are fake.

But God left us a path

A narrow line for each to walk

A map to eternal life

If we let Him talk

Even at the very end

His Grace will always win

Just have faith in His word

For eternal life to begin

thank you dad

upset over nothing

angry at the world

I needed support

so I called my dad

he was calm

he knew what to say

patient words of wisdom

he wanted it this way

tears and screams

I let it all out

he listened to my anger

he listened to me pout

he settled my thoughts

I began to feel better

thank you dad

I look forward to your letter

the plan

welcome to your plan

I hope you studied all you can

come inside, feel at home

now you know you are never alone

stiff bed, dusty room

face to face with your ultimate doom

stand from inside, look eye to eye

and your hope will never die

float through your mind

watch for the sign

enter into my space

let me take you from this place

see your mistake

change your fate

for there still may be time to escape

 

WWCKD?

What would Charlie do?

 

He would reference the Book

Focus love on his wife

Share facts to support

Young questions about life

 

He would invite the conversation

With those filled with hate

They incite with vulgarity

While his answers are great

 

He would parry with a question

Faith fuels his supreme confidence

Guided by the Book

And it’s heavenly references

 

He would listen to the attacks

Understand the speaker’s position

Then suggest a path

A Jesus guided solution

 

We all need to be like Charlie

And face those who don’t agree

We need to do it for Charlie

Dialogue until we all can see

 

We need to do it for Jesus

A Christian Faith centered plea

I will do it for Jesus

I will do it for my family

To make America great

I will do it for Charlie

 

 

 

Hold onto God

When the world of worry

Presses down on your soul

Read the gospel aloud

All faith in his control

 

Unshackle chains of success

All that money doesn’t count

But when you follow his word

Blessed is your account

 

Let go and hold onto God

Trust in Jesus

Let go and hold onto God

He died for all of us

 

The book is there for all

All the answers we seek

How to live our lives

Plug our soul’s leaks

 

He walked among us

Healed the sick and spoke the word

Give him a chance in your heart

And your life he will preserve

 

Let go of the remote control

Logout of the evil sites

Open up his book of love

Hold on to his light

 

 

 

 

 

 

addict

alone again

my only friend

by choice, however

not to last forever

just right now

until I know how

to see my smile

it’s been a while

to raise my arms

save all the farms

open my heart

for a brand new start

to see my goal 

come out of my hole

tell my story 

taste the glory

to settle down

no longer around

my only friend

never alone again

dying

with death so close

my mind became clear

filled with thoughts of home

empty with those of fear

to read the paper

sit in my chair

go out for a walk

breath deep the clean air

the drugs, the girls

the parties and boos

all are insignifigant

when you are about to lose

all I wanted was peace

the presence of security

a warm, handmade blanket

keeping warm my sanity

with death so close

I realized who I am

I know how to move on

now I have the plan

american boy

student of television

product of greed

money blurs his vision

parents planted the seed

always something he wants

new toys never satisfy

something new to flaunt

something new to buy

fueled by the love of money

he becomes part of the system

like bees making honey

he begins to work with them

american man

greedy, fat and tired

secretly worried about your bills

anything not to be fired

can’t you see

and fly out of the hive

you are meant to bee free

you are meant to bee alive.

dreamlife

what lies ahead

how will I live

what will I do 

before I am dead

I want to die with a grin

a truthful peace that lies within

to plant a seedling

produce another

be the best man I can

and help my brother

to breathe with confidence

learn by my mistakes

tell my experience

before it is too late

if I could enjoy my time

if I could walk the line

if I could make my parents proud

I can die in peace

my chin resting on a cloud

kids

be careful of the children

or do you not care

they imitate your actions

they think its fair

they remember your anger

never forget the screams

not afraid to hit her

they relive in their dreams

feed our children promise

they posses our future

opportunity you cannot miss

and save them from danger

the children must glow

let the kids play

soon they will know

they can actually save the day
