My Prayer

Help me to let go,
Of everything I should,
Help me to not sow,
The wrong things beneath heart's vieled hood,

Help me now to grow,
In you my Lord, my God,
Help me now to know,
Of you to whom my heart does nod,

Help me now to see,
Your path laid out, so right,
Help me now to be,
A man, a servant, a knight,

For in your ways, peace is found,
In your ways, sin is bound,
You are my rock, my solid ground,
"You are my Lord", the heavens sound,

When trouble come,
And alone I feel,
You'll be my sum,
To you I'll kneel,

To be yours, is my dare,
This I say to thee,
It is my prayer,
My call, my plee.

A Dream

In a dream,
A dream of futures passed,
The tale of the way things seem,
A story of things that couldn't last,
In a dream,

In a dream,
I hear the things I should've said,
Trailing through as my mind deems,
I know the thoughts that are long dead,
In a dream,

In a dream,
I see you as I know you are,
Before my mind fills with a thoughtless scheme,
I know you from near to far,
In a dream,

In a dream,
As I grasp your gentle hand,
I feel we make the perfect team,
Walk with me across the land?
In a dream.

In a dream,
I hope I am what I'll become,
Not like my now saddened extreme,
But a man who, to God, has come,
In a dream,

In a dream,
I feel the hope of future,
I fear past's foggy cream,
I watch as the both are sutured,
In a dream.

Why yes, I just wanted to rhyme things with footprint.

A single line of foot prints,
Walking through the snow,
Those soft and gentle imprints,
Wherever do they go?

A single line of foot prints,
Traveling through the night,
Their crisp edges give whispered hints,
Of the moon's downpouring light,

A single line of foot prints,
Crisp in cool cold air,
Flakes and crystaled heart sprints,
Glistening and laid bare,

A single line of foot prints,
The favored of snow's marks,
Going on, tiny rents,
Like the light of heaven's sparks,

A single line of foot prints,
A story within them rests,
They make their quiet stints,
Across snow's gentle nest,

A single line of foot prints,
I wish I could ever see,
They go where no one else went,
And where they are, no one else can be,

A single line of foot prints,
I need to forever stay,
I hope you hear, as I meant,
The words I act out every day,

A single line of foot prints,
Ending as they did start
A single line of foot prints,
Strolling across my heart.

A song....in the style of staind...."I thought you said 'I love you' "

I thought you said 'I love you',
I guess I heard you wrong,
I thought that you would be true,
And I hadn't been led along,
I thought I heard you whisper,
Those nothings in my ear,
I never caught the adieu,
Until you were not here,

And I cry out in whispers,
Because I don't know what to say,
These tears, they do surround me,
I'll hide you from my shame,
You said you'd always be there,
Would always hold my hand,
Until the day you left me,
I thought you'd understand.

I thought you said 'I love you',
It must be my mistake,
I thought I watched as you grew,
Out of your past, and through its wake,
I thought that I'd read your mail,
Through the portal of your heart,
It seemed that you became new,
But you hadn't made a start,

(chorus)

I thought you said 'I love you',
I thought that you would be true,
I thought you'd finally break through,
But I never really knew...I never really knew....

Wrote this for battlecry...but why not...

When faced with doubt and troubles,
My heart like fallen rubbles,
I'll rise to head his call,

This is my battle cry,

In time when I feel small,
When I trip, stumble, and fall,
I'll seek him with my all,

This is my battlecry,

When the world has gone quite dim,
And I stagger on sin's brim,
His Word I will take in,

This is my battlecry,

When a brother soldier ,
Stumbles under satan's boulder,
With them will be my prayers, and for their Tears, my shoulder,

This is my battlecry,

When a call of help rises,
From people of all shapes and sizes,
I will pull them from all guises,

This is my battlecry,

When sickness, death, and bloodshed,
Strand someone in their bed,
I'll heal them as He said,

This is mybattlecry,

I'll praise through pain and heartache,
Sing till there out of heaven breaks,
A fire and a passion, that makes the whole world shake,

This is my battlecry,

Until hell has been defeated,
And satan's throne unseated,
My goal is not completed,

I will seek his face unceasing,
Each day my heart is beating,
Till filled is heaven's place of meeting,

This is my battlecry,
This is my battlecry,
THIS IS MY BATTLECRY.

i really tried to hard to make this one rhyme...to free-versy for me to...

in the silence of a thousand tears,
speaking through your many snears,
they've piled up through all these years,
say them now, those unknown fears,

in the picture of the darkness lay,
the things you simply cannot say,
you press them hard, keep them at bay,
to the torturous souls, just say nay,

in the whispers of your hazel eyes,
the pressure here of all my lies,
i feel it now, to soon it dies,
seek my past and all it buys,

in the twinkle of your pristine smile,
the old unpacked and all in file,
spinning through, your thoughts, a dail,
flowing down like ancient nile,

in the lightness of your gentle hand,
singing softly like big brass band,
i know your there across the land,
spread through thought, like twisted sand,

in the calmness of your beating heart,
the beating whispers it apart,
it changes as you give a start,
your feelings now, sweet or tart?

in everything you ever said,
they fly back through my winding head,
lifting me, like load of lead,
drawing me to life-long bed.

poem del yertle el turtle

whisper whisper in my head,
whisper whisper thoughts unsaid,
whisper whisper things unknown,
whisper whisper when i'm alone,

twist and turn in little ways,
things that other people say,
don't allow my mind a rest,
whisper whisper, that's what's best,

pull on back your little net,
it yanks tight, my ways are set,
whip me right and whip me left,
I can't escape, my web so deft,

Falling through that thin thin air,
Faith and doubt, that twisted pair,
Dragging forth my heart ensnared,
Ripping down, till all's stripped bare,

Spinning minds and ribboned care,
your face a mask, is this a fair?
why oh why, my mind it blares,
take a peek, or do you dare,

whisper whispers in my mind,
whisper whisper thoughts unkind,
whisper whisper dreams in my bed,
whisper whisper till i'm dead.
