Love,how it saved me
In love, how it heals me
My true love, how I love him
In the night, he holds me
In anger and saddness, he comforts me
My love for him is true
He is my reason to live
Without him I am nothing
*******************************
She lays awake at night,
her skin still feeling his embrace.
Wanting him, missing him-
needing him.
She remembers being with him-
kissing him.
When will she see him again?
Where has he gone?
Her times of splender,
turned to times of sorrow.
She sees him in the distance,
every step she takes he seems farther away.
She stops and falls,
no one is there to catch her.
There she is-
alone.
*************************
Her eyes damp with tears,
In a room I sat,
Eyes that flash in the dark,
she sits alone in the dark.
"Some time apart," he said.
"We're growing apart," he said.
What happened to the love they shared?
What happened to forever?
After so long his love was gone.
The times they'd had together were lost.
There was no longer a "them".
There was a him and a her.
Two souls, destined to be apart.
Forever.

Beauty
Beauty.
People thrive on it.
Some judge by it.
What is beauty?
Hair long and flowing?
Eyes so deep and hypnotizing?
Lips full and pouty?
No.
Beauty is love.
Beauty is the way you treat others.
Am I beautiful?
Yes.
Clichés…
Real beauty comes from within,
Beauty is only skin deep.
TRUTH!
“Judge and ye shall be judged.”
Worry about your own beauty…
leave me to mine.
*****************************************
You
Your gorgeous brown eyes and smile.
Your sweet touch and beautiful voice
and your soft embrace.
I could forever list things,
that make my knees go weak.
You’re the one that makes my heart jump,
the one that makes me smile.
You saved me from loneliness,
and promised to love me forever.
My love, I’ve found my future in you,
I will love you forever.
Yours is the face,
I want to always see.
I pledge my love to you,
I want you to be my one and only.
My day brightens at the mention of your name,
I love you so much.
Now that I’m yours I could never picture,
myself without you.
You are my one, my only,
you complete me.
*****************************************
Not anymore
She sees the cookie jar on the counter,
feeling tears in her eyes, she turns away.
Mom said she couldn't have cookies, not any more.
Mom doesn't give her many things,
neither hugs nor kisses, not any more.
She used to want to play all the time,
to jump, laugh, and smile, not any more.
Her daddy went on a real long trip,
Mom lays in bed with her cheeks so wet.
She used to have a happy family,
smiling, loving, and together, not any more.
*****************************************
Darkness was all I saw.
There I wanted to dwell,
Among the temptation, pain, weakness, and fear.
I look around and my heart spoke,
"Step into the light.
Cast those feelings away,
Be strong and leave them in the dark."
I stood, raist my hands and cried to my God,
"I GIVE IT UP! I give all I have to you!
Father take me, mold me, make me new,
Work me, shape me, and make me whole!"
A voice spoke to me,
"My child I am with you!
Walk with me and you shall not be harmed,
I love you always, come and know me.
Trust in me and I will set you free,
Be strong and stand when others fall."
The Lord loves me and believes in me,
He is my salvation and my strength,
He loves all people everywhere,
He weeps with anguish when we deny His love.
He wants us to shine likes,
Shine bright as the children of a Mighty God.
************************************************
watching ever move I make.
Following like beads of yellow,
brightly shining through the black.
I feel them on me,
waiting for the attack
.
These eyes are like lions in the jungle,
stalking through the grass for their prey.
These are the eyes of the Satan,
watching, waiting and hoping.
Hoping that just once I deny Him,
just waiting to drag me away.
Trying to lure me,
to watch me burn in hell.
But always I will stay with Him,
stay to lean on my God.
To live satisfied.
Keeping my faith strong.
He is my all, the one I lean on and follow always.
He sent me his son to die,
So that I may live.
he gives me happienes,
and fills me with peace.
His angels surround me,
keeping me safe.
Satan prowls night and day,
searching for the one left alone.
Searching for someone,
someone to follow his wicked ways.
For someone,
who doesn't know Jesus Christ.
