today i feel like the sun

hemmed in by the clouds above

forbidden to ever smile upon

the precious earth it loves


but tomorrow’s my opportunity

to rid myself of all affairs

to burn my way through clouded streets

and shine my love elsewhere




one love.





n.j.

Even if I don’t get to spend this life with you

I will worship Him with you in that life

And that is more than I can ask for

[read slowly]
I forgot you get jealous when I'm in love with someone else

I forgot you have bigger and better plans for my life than I do

I forgot you’d rather me sing about you, than someone else

I forgot you gave me your word

I forgot you promised me happiness

I forgot the world revolves around you

I forgot your name matters

I forgot you are real



I forgot this isn’t a game

I forgot how much I need you

I forgot how much I love you

I forgot how much you love me

I forgot how you paid for me

I forgot I’m in debt to you

I forgot what you require of me

I forgot how hard it is



How forgetful am I. [conveniently.]



[you'd better read this...]
Have mercy on me, O God
According to your unfailing love
According to your great compassion
Blot out my transgressions
Against you, you only, have I sinned
And done what is evil in your sight
So that you are proved right when you speak
And justified when you judge
Let me hear joy and gladness
Let the bones you have crushed rejoice
Hide your face from my sins
And blot out all my iniquity
Create in me a pure heart, O God
And renew a steadfast spirit within me
Do not cast me from your presence
Or take your Holy Spirit from me
Restore to me the joy of your salvation
And grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me
Save me from bloodguilt, O God
The God who saves me
And my tongue will sing of your righteousness
O Lord, open my lips
And my mouth will declare your praise
You do not delight in sacrifice, or I would bring it
You do not take pleasure in burnt offerings
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit
A broken and contrite heart
O God, you will not despise
[Full version]


Jesus, I don’t want to forget about you

I’m not happy.

I don’t feel satisfied.

I don’t have purpose.

I feel like a hypocrite because I take the bread and wine every time I go to church, and disregard you for the rest of the week.

I’m tired of forgetting about you

Help me to remember you like you remember me






sincerely,
n.j.

I hate to see you cry
Lying there in that position
There's things you need to hear
So turn off your tears
And listen

Pain throws your heart to the ground
Love turns the whole thing around
No it won't all go the way it should
But I know the heart of life is good

You know, it's nothing new
Bad news never had good timing
But, then your circle of friends
Will defend the silver lining

Pain throws your heart to the ground
Love turns the whole thing around
No it won't all go the way it should
But I know the heart of life is good

Pain throws your heart to the ground
Love turns the whole thing around
Fear is a friend who's misunderstood
But I know the heart of life is good
I know it's good

love is a verb.



0 notation[s]

darkness, wind and fog
yet there is
light, stillness and clarity

despair, anguish and rejection
yet there is
joy, serenity and acceptance

how could such a terrible wrong
make mans soul right?

blood, nails and a cross
how can there be
hope, love and forgiveness?

is it true that
things must be
worse before
they can be
better?


ah, yes. That is the secret.


The sequel to pain is joy.
