New Day New Beginning

August 26, 2008

today was a very important day.. another chapter has opened in my life.

Lord…give me the grace to be strong.

the patience to be meek.

the heart for compassion.

and courage to not back down.

Lord.. give me the character to endure.

the mind to understand.

the pain to remember.

and suffering to grow.

Lord give me the sunshine for remembrance.

the rain for guidance.

the wind for comfort.

the cold for embrace.

Lord give me your hand for my fortress.

your song for my heart beat.

your thought for my purpose.

your smile for my happiness.

I give you my life.  I give you my trust.  I give you my pain.  I give you my future.  I give you my hopes.  I give you my aspirations.  I give you my shame.  I give you my glory.  I give you my tear, my breath, my shout, my echoes, my sight, my heart, my blood, my sweat, my pride, my soul, my past, my present, my yesterday, my tomorrow, my love, my fear, my doubt, my insecurity, my weakness, my desperation, thought, concern, joy, laughter, plead, pardon. 

I give you my trust dear Lord.  You hear my heart… only you can hear it clearly.

Let me always remember that I am nothing without you.

THIS IS MY SOOOOOOONNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

August 7, 2008

in my dreams

you were there

i reached for your hand..

and grasped nothing

in my dreams

you were there

i was so happy

to share my time with you

even for a moment..

when i awoke

i was scared

to think… to think it was not real

my tears.. my pain.. were they real?

my heart…

my soul

thought of you..

but you were not there

i followed

through the woods

the trees

through the city

to find the boat

and our place

were you waiting?

but i couldn’t

im so sorry

 you were gone
