From the Ashes

The trials and tribulations of life
The pain of everyday adversities
An ominous shadow looming in the not so distant future

I am told This too shall pass.
Little comfort in a world of trouble
The voice on the other end does ease pain
but it is simply not enough
My eyes remain open

Daydreaming

Riding my bike dcown Rue des Juifs
A cold winter's wind on my face
I think to myself, "I love this place."

If that'd been a tropical breeze
A little vacation from day to day
Open my eyes, begin riding again
Feel that cold wind once more

Pushed Away

He has given me a source of happiness
In fact, He's offered two
They are those who make me smile
Such a surprise, it was
But then again, that's just His style

But wait! I must've heard You wrong
This simply can't be true
You'll make me give them up?
Now, this is unlike You.

"Not give up," He calmly said,
"It's only a holiday.
A holiday with books, ( Read more... )

three guesses who this is about

12.1.07
Se Prendre les Mains

With the birth of each new day
Drive
Each of us changes
Fun
Her love stays the same
Invitation

She hears music in the sunrise
Imagination
Life and all its possibilities
Wonder
Hers for the taking
Laughter

Our lives are so much more than me
Excitement
Your strength is my strength
Growth
To carry on, to ( Read more... )
