Shield Me
I know you’re always here,
and I’m desperate for you, hold me near.
I am your instrument and living to carry out your will
but often overwhelmed with doubt still.
Help me walk straight and tall,
faith so strong, knowing you’ll catch me when I fall.
Through the words I say and the ones I hold dear,
I pray for courage and to conquer all fear.
Father, protect me always, your love so deep,

Winter's End (2nd rewrite)
2nd rewrite (11/27/11) Song: (You’re Beautiful – James Blunt ) “Where do you see us in thirty years?” Christine closed the book she had been reading and curled her legs beneath her as she spoke to him in those sweet tones he loved so much. From the corner of his eye, John watched her twist her lilt frame against the window’s daybed just a bit so she could better see him. “From now?” John...

Anonymous asked: Hey, I'm working on a blog about submitting work for others to see. I know you enjoy reading and writing, do you think you'd promote me? I won't include my url until you say yes or no, because it'd be a little cheap (on my part) if I included my url asking if you would promote me and then you said no but my url was still on your blog. if that makes sense. just trying to be...

Clashing Sorrows
I never dared to say these words
I don’t think I’m that brave
I don’t know if they will be heard
I don’t know if they will be felt back
When you talked to me with words
I talked back to you with feelings
Words functioned by feelings
My weakness has been revealed
Why do I care? Why should I care?
When I haven’t even seen your face
Lightening up, looking right at me
Looking right through...

Not type, but who do you like to buy? (Earl Grey, Lipton, Yogi Tea, Twinings, etc)
My favorite has to be the SleepyTime tea :)
(Or anything by Celestial Seasonings)

Do you have a tea cup/thermal/mug that you favor...
Last Christmas my grandma got me a Copco tea Thermal that I have pretty much used every day.
I love it because it has this little strainer underneath the cap where you can place your tea bag(s) or tea leaves, making it easy to fish out after you left it steeping for long enough (or you can just leave it in there until you finish drinking it all, which is what I do).
Plus it’s green (my...

Ghosts in Blue (2nd rewrite)
Song: (Woman in Chains - Tears for Fears)
Only the dead remained active in the bar at that hour. Amid the dim lights and mumbled voices, ghosts or the memories of ghosts still lingered among the stale cigarette smoke and the near closing sounds of sweeping floors and washed glasses being settled in for the night. Her ghost wasn’t here. Simon knew she wouldn’t be, but…still.
Simon responded to...

We Are Music
The lines I write will be a song,
of how we met and how we belong.
I’ll write the words as you sing the tune,
we’ll show love greater than the moon.
Our eyes twinkle every time they meet,
and our bodies move to their own beat.
Our love is so loud the deaf can hear,
so bright the blind can see,
you have always been a part of me.
Together we are music, we are art,
we were joined from the...

Dear people on facebook, those trying to text me,...
I have this big ol’ bone to pick with you.

People
People come, and people go,
some will stay, but who I’ll never know.
The moment you get close, they walk away,
when the going gets tough, people tend to stray.
I’ve heard kind words and “I’ll always be here”,
but it’s until you need them, they’re never near.
I’ve learned no one wants to hear what is true,
they’d rather go on and believe what they want to.
You would think I’d learn after...
