When I am down and oh, my soul so weary...

"No trial has come to you but what is human. God is faithful and will not let you be tried beyond your strength; but with the trial He will also provide a way out, so that you may be able to bear it."
(1Cor. 10:13)

Oh Lord I am humbled! Our trials, but the trials you endured were inhumane. Your Word gives me strength and reassurance. When my day has been dark, it is the light that shines, reminding me that whatever is will pass and You are what is to come. Amen!

Heaven's Hall

Where is that place we all seek
In a lovers heart, a poets sleep,
Between dreams or just simply from
The soft caress of a mother's lips.

In this world we spent our lives-
Who will weep when the ocean dies?
One breath marks the passing by
Of a time that said goodbye.

Where is that place where angels fly,
Where stars littered the blackened sky?
Within my reach Jupiter lies-
I touched him with my angel eyes...

So I seek and so shall find
I rode the stars in my dreams last night
Flew in a time of no goodbyes
Who is to say it's all a lie?

And I went where lovers soar
I reached out, opened the poet's door
Opened my heart and answered the call
And now I stand in Heaven's Hall.

The Mask...

I don't know where I'm going
You don't know where I've been
Can't tell what the future's holding
I'm not as brave as I seem

I only feel like running
But I'm frozen in this place
Please don't remove my mask
The truth is hard to face

People think I am strong
Why can't they see the act
Once damaged can't be sold
Its courage that I lack

Sometimes I feel like crying
So numbness becomes my friend
In time I forget how I once was
And it becomes me in the end...
