Indifferent Transparency

Life is a strange thing
It can make you sing,
It can make you dance,
And prance
Around like a fool.
Life will make you feel good
And feel bad.
It can make you happy
And make you sad.
It is the best of times
It is the worst of times.
It makes you write silly rhymes.
Life is filled with awe and wonder.
And great storms of thunder.

Questions are often lingering
Around in your mind.
Where can you find
The answers you need,
That will feed
Your soul?

God is a strange thing.
Know what I'm saying?
He knows all things.
He loves me
In spite of me.
And His plan
For my life,
May cause strife.
Even if I don't understand.
But I can't comprehend
The things He sends
My way,
Every day.
To test
My best,
For Him.
Life is so dim
In comparison,
To the one
Who died on the cross.
And who saved the lost.

Do I chose life or God?
Is that question odd?
Well, I have found
That my answer may sound,
A little bit ludicrous.
But this
Is what I know to be true:
That God,
Is who I chose.
I may lose
My life.
And have no wife,
Endure hardship and strife.
But it is all worthwhile
To have a lifestyle,
That reflects Jesus.
Because He is the one
And only son,
Who frees us.

Wide Open Road

My heart is crying out Can you hear it shout, What it is longing for? It just wants to soar. To go up and over Like a Range Rover, On the highest mountain. To dive into the depths Of the largest fountain. To scale tall buildings, And fly among the birds. Haven't you ever heard? My heart is crazy and wild Just like a little child, Who wants to explore All of creation for The best kind of fun. In the morning sun My heart will run, After what it desires. It never tires Of going for gold. Or of being sold Out for Christ. Deny Him thrice? You got to be tripping. I'll be whipping The Devil back From his attack. I am a warrior, a soldier. Getting stronger, as I'm older. My heart is crying out To jump all around And for beauty to be found. So that it may be rescued. My thoughts aren't skewed! What you talking about fool? You need to go back to school. I want to fight the fight, Of darkness and light...

September 11, 2001

Just a few days ago It was September 11, A day, that in 2001, Some people went to heaven. They left our lives And some of them, their wives, On that day they died. Because of two planes And people who were insane. That day is a day That will live forever, And for some people It will never get better. We mourn those who Gave their all While on call. To save one or two People crying out Can you hear them shout? "Save me, help me, I don't want to die!" And so many of us can only ask, "Why?" Why did this happen to us? Who should we trust? How can we live on? What is the reason? I tell you today That I cannot say, That I know how they feel Or how they will deal, With this kind of loss That makes them feel gross. I wish I could make Their pain fade away. But I cannot take Back what will not stay, Because of the fact that God let it go that way. He controls whether we live or die, And knows every moment we cry. He wants to giv...

Too Many Emotions

Right at this moment My head is in a whirl I have many comments On life in this world But I do not know Where to go Or what to feel. What's the deal? I miss my friends. I want to spend Time with them all, Hear them say, "Y'all!" But they are gone What seems like forever! Will a day actually come Will I ever, See them again Before the end? I want them back So much I do But is that Really accurate? I feel sad for my loss (I'm even losing my boss) But I am also glad For the days ahead You hear what I said? I am looking forward To the new and awkward, Times with new friends Who are coming soon. What will they be like? Will we grow as much As I did before? Who will I know And where will we go, When we want to have fun Or to just tan in the sun? I really do not know What it is that will go On in the next few months. But I do know this I will trust in God, You know who He is? He...
