Calm Collide

Thoughts collide
In brilliant flashes
Tearing seams
As if I'd lied.
Buried in ashes
Of battered dreams
I finally fall apart.
Torn across time
And space
As I lost heart,
Seeing my crime
In this dark place
I surrender all.
No where to go
But deeper in
And I still fall.
I already know
Of my sin
Which writhes
inside my soul.
I will remain
Offering tithes
Of my whole
As though insane.
Calm captures me
I can still be free,
Please help me.

Look Upon the Sunrise

As I look upon the sunrise, I leave behind the past. As I see behind the lies, I find freedom at last. No darkness can accuse, As evil I refuse. As I look upon the sunrise, I look to what's ahead. As I gaze at the blue skies, I leave behind my dread. Civility returns to me, By His blood I am free. As I look upon the sunrise, I remember a Creator. As I listen to my cries, I stumble like before. No longer bowing to hate, This is not my fate. As I look upon the sunrise, I see my scars dissolve. As I tremble and rise, I feel the blissful salve. Eyes cleared of the dirt, Joy comes from past's hurt.

Perseverance or pleasure, Both will still rot. Contemplations and treasure, Both come to naught. Shattered and torn, We bear a horrible thorn. Decay is at its terrible leisure. Meaningless! Standing all alone! Meaningless! Living as one’s own! Labor and toil, Merely chase the wind. Within the mortal coil, Pain and grief grinned. Sleep has no peace, Cares do not cease. Man returns to the soil. Meaningless! Enough never exists! Meaningless! Joy constantly resists! Riches come to harm, And steal joy relentlessly. Wealth has no charm, And deprive sleep incessantly. Appetites never satisfied, Unto the day man died. Abundance simply awaits alarm. Meaningless! All t...

Let Joy Abound

Unmake me! Let Your joy abound! I am free, Without a sound. Fear mingled with relief, Love comes as a thief. Strike me down! Strip all away! Painful crown, Save me today. Blood spilt on my behalf, Makes my sins naught but chaff. Restore me! Bring me to life! Make me see, Truth in my strife. I now release my grief, I'll live this life so brief. Unmade within sheer joy, As love He did employ!
