Goals

When motivation strikes
live off the explosion -
as you watch bad habits
fall into erosion...

You got this
as no one else can -
living your best life
again and again...

Don't be afraid
to challenge yourself -
be your own coach
and you own self help...

Then sit back
proud of what you did -
from putting in that effort
each day that you live.

Rescued

If someone walks
out of your life -
let them go on and go...

Sometimes
there are people -
You don't need to know...

Once some time
has passed -
you will feel relieved...

There are
too many liars -
who choose only to deceive...

Notice how you feel
when there is nothing -
left to say...

Rejoice when them
with their negativity -
have finally gone away.

Rocky Foundations

Why didn't I go
with my instincts back then -
because I've relived it
again and again...

I found out things
I never should have known -
while doing my best
all on my own...

So many times
I wanted to flee -
I always have to wonder
why me...

Now here it is
completely a lie -
an empty feeling
that can never die.

Stages

Sometimes when
the seasons blow through -

I sit alone
and think of you...

I miss those days
when you were there...

Even though you're gone
I still care...

and hope you're happy
where you are now...

Maybe some day
we'll meet again somehow.

Cross Roads

You know
what to do -
when the pathway
goes through...

You hide
and stay away -
from that hate
that's there to stay...

You run
and don't look back -
then there won't
be an attack...

you'll be
so far away -
it will be a
memory anyway.

Sun Shine

Let the
tranquility -
relax
inside of me...

Focus on
all the growth -
rising above
and being woke...

Know the
end of this -
is golden streets
of utter bliss.

Boundaries

This is exactly
where I want to be -
away from the loud
and all of the crazy...

Safe to myself
all tucked away -
this is exactly
what I used to pray...

Now I am delivered
from those I dislike -
they are all behind me
and out of my life...

I am renewed
and glad for the end -
I will never let them
into my life again.

Cards

I see your face
and it makes me smirk -
you are nothing
but a stupid jerk...

I can't wait
until you implode -
enjoy it now
before it explodes...

I've already seen
what's coming to you -
I will laugh so hard
when it comes true.

Sticks and Stones

Dear Lord I pray -
on my knees today...

that you heal this land -
from evil's demand...

as we watch our rights get stripped away.

I ask of you -
to let your light shine through...

So people will see -
what we were meant to be...

Peaceful and loving to each other every day.

Blind Sided

What you put in
is what you'll get out -
It won't be overlooked
without a doubt...

If you did good
or if you did bad -
You will be happy
or you will be sad...

You can't erase
what is now there -
Ignore all you want
and don't even care...

Karma has a way
of coming through -
so sit back and watch
what's coming to you.

Flutters

Baby bird
spread your wings and fly -
Way on beyond here
and up into the sky...

I want to keep you
but I believe it's right -
To let you get your wings
and fly away into the night...

I adore you
and I am amazed -
how I see something helpless
and can not be unfazed...

So I'll help you
in any way I can -
Then cheer for your freedom
right from where I stand.

The Rock

Don't second wonder
Don't envy wrong
Don't regret right...

Emotions are a fight...

Do what is good
Do what you should
Do what you would...

In his holy sight.

Because you are.

Drops from Heaven

My yard
My flowers
My garden...

Soak up
the spring rain -

So thankful that it came -

To absorb
To cleanse
To refresh...

Blooming life
budding through -

as it grows and blossoms anew.

Fairy Tales

I'm safe
I'm guarded
I'm done...

All the people
that I knew
weren't the one...

To hold
some might
some authority -

Because now
they have
no power over me...

I never
have to see
anyone again...

That I don't like
or care for -
the end.

Blurred

It's ok
to let go -
of what you know
needs to go...

As it pours
down on me -
although it's blurry
I can see...

Through all the
smoke and glass -
I watched it come
and watched it pass.

I Got This

It's been hard
and a struggle -
but I have
my dogs to snuggle...

I'm now planning
my next vacation -
where I'll finally
have relaxation...

A month away
I will be fine -
I got back the job
that was mine...

The only opinion
I'll value again -
is from myself
because then, I win!

Easy Like Sunday Morning

The sound of
the rocks crunching
beneath my shoes...

The sound of
the boats coming
into view...

The morning
sunrise beneath
towering trees...

The birds
flying above
the waters breeze...

It is where
I'm happy
and I want to be...

Why can't
that be the life
meant for me?

Nope

I gotta fly
like a mother fuckin
monkey...

I gotta run
like a bitch
from a pimp...

I gotta go
like nobody ever
saw me...

I gotta live
like I ain't no
fuckin wimp...

I gotta roll
with the punches
that I've taken...

I gotta laugh
when they think
that I care...

I gotta smile
when they fall
on their own face...

I gotta admit
that this bitch
just don't care.

Sink or Swim

I'm just going
to turn it off today -
So I can enjoy
my home and pray...

That all of this
will be over soon -
and our normal life
can resume...

So the world
can go out a play -
or have a patio lunch
on a sunny day...

That travel begins
with new sites to see -
today I will hope
we will soon be free.

666

It's scary
overwhelming -
who to trust
who to believe...

When it is
completely obvious -
how many times
they do deceive...

One world
with one hope?
or the book
of Revelations?

You would be
a blind sheep -
if you had
no hesitations...

Seeing it all
slowly unfold -
just like
I've heard for years...

You must get
the microchip -
to buy and sell
and it is clear...

The beast
will rule us all -
death and destruction
tears and fear...

but through Christ
our sacrificed savior -
our redemption
is very near.
