Night time brings

The darkness


But it also brings the stars

To watch over and protect us


It reminds us that even in the

Darkest of times there will

Always be light to guide you back


It serves to remind us that

We will never be all alone


To me, Jesus is the

Light of the world


And wherever

Darkness goes


Wreaking havoc

And evil all around


Light will

Surely follow


As He illuminates...

Certain Of One Thing

All I see is darkness.

I know you’re there with me. Though my sight has been stolen from me in cold blood, yours is warm, and I can hear your heart beating, beating in sync with mine.

“It won’t be much longer,” you tell me, and now I can add your voice to the list of things that keep me grounded.

Your hand in mine; I feel the weathered skin on your palm and the scar that runs up your forea...

Lovers’ Cheesy Poetry

With the night comes darkness but also stars

But as chessy as it sounds, you were the stars

The only star, actually

But that was enough

Because your burning glow

Was warmer than the Sun

I would have never met you

If I didn’t relapse

If I didn’t collapse

And I would break down again

A thousand times even

If it would mean I’d get to keep you

Till the very end







(On a completely unrelated note,...

Stars In The Sky

Stars are hope

Flickering in despair

Braking through the darkness

The evil of this world

A guiding light to all

Leading the way

To a brighter day...

Shining In The Night

When night comes, darkness falls upon Earth.

We lose sight

And wander aimlessly.

Morning birds rest their heads and

Dream.

Night owls let

The darkness

Flow into their homes.


When darkness falls upon Earth, stars greet us with smiles.

The stars

Burn so we can

See our path.

They bring the night owls

Beautiful skies.

Stars gift morning birds

Wonderful dreams.


Yet no one thanks stars

...

Beauty In The Dark

There is beauty in dark, sad things

The kind of beauty that creeps up on you

Makes you feel the emotional deep


Like the faded memory of a lost loved one

Like the reverberations of a thunderstorm

Like the ephemeral allure of a bouquet of roses

With the night comes darkness, but also stars.


Like the cathartic experience of a sad song

Like vibrant colored leaves falling softly from trees

Like ...

But Also

With night comes darkness,

But also stars.

Stars burn brighter and bring us hope.


With change comes uncertainty,

But also growth.

Growth defines us and makes us who we are.


With adversity comes struggle,

But also perseverance.

Perseverance builds fortitude and strengthens us.


With obstacles comes frustration,

But also perspective.

Perspective brings realization and understanding.


With...

Stars And Darkness

With the night comes darkness

But also stars

The evil in the beauty

In light in dark

Hope to death

The stars diamonds

Darkness death

Happiness in day

Betryal at night

With the night comes darkness

But also starts...

Orange Flesh

Last night I laid in bed, my mind warping with words indistinguishable from pictures and a strange fear weighed me down

heavy in my throat


Last night I dreamt you were walking in front of me my hand on your shoulder…

And as I pulled away your skin came with my hand

And as it peeled

Juice sprayed in my eyes


Last night I saw past your skin

And it smelled of oranges....

Secret Hope

In the night

The ongoing fight

Hope lies beyond


You look at the sky

Hear the wolves cry

Stars shine bright


To the moon and free

Climbing the tree

To see the stars


You know the cost

They get lost

But for the stars

You would do it all


Look up at the sky

Hear the wolves cry

No one can see that hope

The feeling it brings

Now look at the sky

The sky


The sun comes up

The light, the sun

With nig...
