treasure

i'm discovering how empty worldly things really are.

i'm searching for treasure in the simple truth.

and it's the hardest thing i've ever tried to do.

peace & love,

when i finally know what i want.
i later find its not what i need.

peace and love,

simple

if the Truth is so simple,
then why am i so confused?

it takes three to drown

this is the story about the three of us.
down by the water, watching it rise.
i wish i could've stopped time,
i wish we could go back to the way it used to be.

it's sad seeing him drown,
and now we feel lonely.
i wish there was something we could say to him,
to give him courage to live.

it's getting so hard to swim,
and the water's getting rough for us two.
now i wish i let go of your hand,
before you pulled me under the cold water.

i wish i could ignore the truth,
that i have lost sight of who i am.
i wish i could be stronger and swim to the top,
but now i feel like all hope's lost.

here's to friendship that never dies.
i will always love you both.

fleeting

i had a fleeting thought this morning,
and i mentioned You today.
it breaks my heart just to know You in part
and not to be with You where You are.

peace and love,

chaos

life is Chaotic.

the End.

peace and love,

What does it take to get a drink in this place?

What does it take?
How long must I wait?
How long will You hide Your face from me?

i'm sorry

i feel like i've let everyone down.
but letting you down hurts the most.

we never change, do we?

life is

CM, if you even read this, here's to you.
I hope everything's not lost.
---------------------
Life is seperated, as we are.
like the East from the West,
the space between us is filled.
sometimes with cold Winds, sometimes bright warm Sunshine.

Life is Beautiful, and the people in it, Lovely.
the cold winds stung my face today, it reminded me of you.
I thought about how our lives are so different,
so busy, rushing in and out.

Life is Funny, and the people we meet, Curious.
i met someone today, a customer at work, and they reminded me of you.
they came and went from my life so quickly.
so fast, but they changed me.

Life is Graceful, full of Mercy.
i am not sad. i am thankful to have met you.
i am not so happy. but i am glad to be me.
i am loved. and i am smiling because my life is good.

goodbye, for now.

peace and love, always,

secret

well, the secret's out.

i am me. but my life is not about me. it's about you.

isn't that ironic?

(your) peace & love,

progress

"We all want progress, but if you're on the wrong road, progress means doing an about-turn and walking back to the right road; in that case, the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive."
C. S. Lewis

Keep going.

peace and love,
