ThanksGiving Poem

All we do is live and you love us
We mess up but you created us
When we doubt you give us hope
You gave youe one and only son for us
As we are unable to fathom it,
We give you thanks for what you done
Through the thanks we are able to give
Your love, Your word, Your son.
Some have so little,
But yet thanks are still extended
Pockets empty,
But yet they still give.
Letting your light shine through
Like a blazing fire.
Letting our hearts be seen
For what they are.
No words can express our thanks
Truely this is agape love.

Emotions - lead or be led

Emotions shape us
Personalities birthed out of feelings
Given a choice, fork in the road
Be led, or lead
Regretting the things we have done,
While being led by the emotions
Hoping for good things,
As we lead our emotions
The power of these feelings
Overwhelming as it seems
The power if used correctly
Can give self control
The heart, a deceiver
As it would lead you,
Ending up lost, pained
Turn it around and lead the deceiver
Influence the influencer
Things all change

We want or Greed?

Taken for granted the things we have,
Only ever notice,
When they're stripped away.
Materialism has taken over
People bringing up their children in this
Taught self serving
We want, thinking it brings happiness
Across the world they need,
Knowing it will take away the pains
Strongholds of chains, shattered
Midset altered.
Speaking out against this issue
Even though our mouths wont open
Each word dents the chain
Each meaningful thought cracks the rings
Chains now flawed, weakened
Crumbling at the feet, of the people
Who are willing,
To take on the giant we named..
Materialism.

Untitled .. for now

When ever I'm near you
My heart soars to the highest heights
When ever I see you
I'm drawn to your radiance
Your gone for only a day,
Yet I miss you like its been years
Embraced, time ticks by at a stand still
Kissed, moment entombed in time
Clocks shattered, lasting forever
Thoughts shake my bones
Paintings move the eyes
Rhetoric moves the heart
You move my soul.
Need a shoulder to cry on?
Need someone to laugh with?
Need to just be held?
These shoulders are vacant
Always ready to laugh
And I would never think of not holding you.

I got a Car

So this last tuesday i got a car, woot woot! Yea im really excited (no matter how girly jay thinks it is), i got a 97' sunfire GT in amazing condition. i cant really think of anything else to write so ill get some pics up of it in a bit

I never knew her, but yet my heart aches

One year today, events unfold
On the trail of life
As if a tree has fallen
The ground of my life shaken.
Personally I didn't know her
But Knowing how close you two were,
She would be so happy to know
That you would go to the ends of the earth
Talk to every one about this cause
I never knew the bond between the friends
Just hearing about it brings me to tears
Fears cast away, worries abolished
Because Dancing with Jesus is the cure
Many things can bring back memories
Things that bring a smile to your face
Maybe a tear to your eye
Peace strewn over you like a blanket
An overwhelming calm
Just to know that She is walking with Jesus
But only one set of footprints is to be seen

Who are we?

Created for a reason,
Right here on earth
Seeking out the shadows, the light
Desperation to discover who we are
Decipher our purpose.
We research, experiment
Our futile efforts are in vein
Maybe we are looking,
In all the wrong places.
Striving to unravel our own fairy tale
Finally looking to God
What we find is a father, Savior.
Soft words spoken over our small life
Words that encourage, build up
Through this rhetoric we find what this is.
That God has a plan laid out for us
Our book opened wide
Popping up, images of our life
Who we are, discovered

To live, To love

To live and to love
Never having felt such ecstasy
The overwhelming joy, contentment
Vocalizing the feelings
Saying "I love you"
These words pierce my very soul
Eyes sparkle as their name is said
Can't speak the words from my head
Mouth numb, throat dry
Warmth straight from you
Calms this very heart
Your smell drives me crazy
Your eyes, Your smile
Are what keep this heart beating.
Straining to keep my composure
Struggleing to stay on my feet
Oh how easy it would be,
To callapse into each others arms for eternity

Thoughts from the heart in love

Hand in hand
Heart racing so fast
This dream coming true
I never thought,
That I would ever find someone,
That I wouldnt have to be,
Subject to change.
Known you for so long
Next to Forever it seems to short
Never thought it could happen this fast
Knowing that it will endure the test of time
Built on the Rock
Not on the Shale
This structure is called love
Hanging on the edge of love for a while
But tonight I fell.....

Dirt,Blood,Fear

Twisted minds, twisted faces
Bullets flying with blood spraying
Alone in the trenches with hundreds of others
Futile attempts at victory
Dirt flying at the faces of pain
Shell shocked minds,
Shrapnel torn lives
War at its worst, millions die
It's notabout who's right,
It's about who is left
In the Aftermath
In the obliteration



this poem and my one about hitler have both been inspired by my history class so i thought i would write them right there while watching the movies about the world wars
