WARNING: an open heart

When I write, I feel. I write “because” I feel, and right now, I’m not feeling so hot, and I know, for me, how God comforts me as I write, so I’m going to lay it all out.

If you don’t want to read about tears, I suggest you move on because as they run down my face, I’ll explain my heart. Continue reading

“False Hope”

I hate it when
dreams seem real
and they’re good
then I wake to reality
and they’re gone

I can’t explain the tears
and won’t stop them

when will that dream come true?
never

a different version will be real
someday
but for now
that dream was a nightmare

“Past Ammunition”

I love it how the past
doesn’t really matter
the only power it has
is what I give it

the past is a weapon
mixed with Jesus
to defeat darkness
not hurl me into it

some things I remember
the kids don’t
some things they remember
I don’t

God has a way of restoring all

Pass it On

Sometimes, kids are terrified to grow up and become like their parents, but when they realize they don’t have to…when they realize they have a choice to become like Jesus, the peace in their eyes speaks louder than words.
