Delusions

Jump off the ledge

You would be so happy

Jump off that ledge

There’s no need to be soppy

What is life?

But an endless trail of sadness

Join me and end it’s likeness

I am happy here I………promise

Come join me in my solace

Our Narrative

They came at night,

They told their stories in flight,

They risked it all to tell their plight.

We did not know from whence they came

And yet the truth in our stories were the same

My God never fails

My God never fails

Even when life makes you wail

And the endless tears make you frail

For your sorrows He was nailed

That in your joy you may hail

And sing praises to His Holy Name.

Lies

I looked into your eyes as you lied

I beheld your smile as you tried

To clear the guilt from your face last night

There’s no need for pretense

It only makes things more tense

When I know you brought me to this mess

You were meant to protect

And yet you aimed to subject me to torment

How flawless your game was

Until you realized that I was

Not who you thought me to be.

The Strong Woman

I look out the window, with nothing left but the detail that you sold my heart out like retail.

Broken down by the words of your mouth, I blugeoned my spirit, thinking of wasted youth.

Refusing to be a token, refusing to be broken by the shards of lies that gave me midnight cries.

But I am what I am, a reflection of what life’s done. A hard but soft spoken woman, intimidated by a society that thinks I’m less than human.

For speaking of the abuse, for knowing I’m of more use than what they think I should be, than what they believed I could be.

If not for the Good News, I would’ve been broken down by their views, that I belong behind the pews.

With nothing to look at, nothing to behold but the disappointment in my soul.

Perfidy

To understand an enigma, to decipher a code, to disperse confusion, to reveal a plague; An insidious laughter, the dregs of hell itself.

Love, such a fleeting word as it leaves treacherous lips, and the soul of the innocent is slain….To whom do you belong O lying tongue? And whom do you spite O treacherous friend? As leaves dry out and fall in their season, so shall the nectar of your tongue be cut off.

Your allure is your boast, your charm is your sting, oh how weak you truly are in all things. Your folly is your demise, your arrogance your death.

The futility of truth where lies are glorified and yet the light shines irrespective of how gloom the darkness. Surely Glory awaits and hope abounds.

Quietness

In the  quietness

where my heartbeat seems too loud. Where my mind speaks its mind. Where my soul goes numb. I have heard it a thousand times, when the silence sounds like a thousand chimes. And the deafening sound of the air passing through my lungs…. horrifies me. Peace has fled and with it my joy too. Comfort is scared to approach my cocoon; spun from my finger tips and the lies of friends.

In the quietness

Where my breath seems too loud. Where my voice has no voice and my spirit gives up it’s fight. I have lived it a thousand times, when living feels like death by a thousand cuts. And the deafening sound of my cries…horrifies me. Strength has fled and with it, my will to live. Sanity is dead, as well as my desire to forgive, all the pain, seeping through my veins, like poison awaiting my remains.

In the quietness

Where a voice so small becomes so loud. Where a beckoning becomes a call. Where His heart seeks my heart. Where my soul breathes a new and my spirit follows His cue. I have prayed it a thousand times but His will sought the perfect time. When the deafening sound was His voice, glorifying Himself in me. Love has returned and with it peace, joy, comfort, strength, wisdom and life too! Bled from the sides of Jesus Christ when His finished work became my life. When He made His righteousness mine and prepared a place for me at my Father’s side.

AMEN!

Heirs

Striving for perfection in a place of imperfection. Trying to disperse the cloud of mortality that hung over our heads. Yet are we not gods? Losing our birthright to the folly of disobedience, we continually stumble on the stones of sin. Making excuses letting others take the rap. Losing our sensitivity and sight to the world.

Open your eyes, open your ears, feel your spirit tell you what you are. Feel it wither with starvation.

Why do you stand behind walls of death for protection? Why do you call out to mortality for eternity? Looking to the condemned for redemption. Looking to broken, withered and tormented beings doomed to the inferno for eternity to provide comfort.

Stop ridiculing yourselves, stop shaming yourselves and be the Heirs that you are.
