Hey peeps plz enjoy all these random poems I've been writing during my absence 😁
(This isn't even all of them...I think I have a problem 😂)

Voice cracking,
A broken melody.
Though beauty lacking,
Authentic in agony.

Trying to live,
So much to give,
Give give give
But so many things draining
Take take take
Why?
You ask me
Why can't I be enough
for somebody?
It's simple
I answer
I'm trying to be enough
for everybody

Why can't I see?
Where I should go,
Who I should be.
Give me a reason, a sign.
Show me a piece of your design.

Weary, weary, heart and soul.
Desperate, desperate, to be whole.
Tired of the world and it's crooked ways,
In need of a love, that forever stays.

True love, you confess
A love, so divine
In the midst of my brokenness,
You call me "mine"

Soft voice beckons, come rest.
Leave your worries at my feet,
Lay your head on my chest.
Feel the rhythm of my heartbeat.
It beats for you, only you,
With a love, so very true.

Excruciating pain
Tears flow
A blessed opportunity
To grow

Tell me of your mysteries
Hidden, disguised
Show me your beauty
Rare, divine
Speak and I will listen
Walk and I will follow
I want to know you
Through and through

Tickling ivories, music filled the room.
Keys softly mingled with singing.
Thoughts, dreams, all did loom.
Fear— placed aside for the time being.

A deceiving sea, I sink below.
Wandering heart, why torture me so?

Blur
Everything's a blur
Life is too fast
Every moment is past
I long for a way
To stop the clock
Turn back time
Stay in this moment
This feeling
Instead of being sent reeling

Words sung
In another tongue
Strange yet beautiful
To me
Voices lifting to the skies
Every note soaring
To the One on high

Timing
Everything is timing
But I'm so impatient
Lord, give me grace
To wait

Poetry
A raw expression
Of deep emotion
A remedy
For anxious thoughts
Fear begot
In me

Sometimes I get lost
In the day to day
Not in the usual way,
More in my mind
Though it seems that time
Stops
And I'm trapped
In the monotony

All these signs
All these emotions
That seem to align
Too much commotion
In my head

It doesn't make sense

I don't know what will happen
Or who I will be
All I have is this pen
And a head full of dreams
Dreams of a life
Perfectly designed
And with God's will
Perfectly aligned
I want to love
And be loved
Without fear
I want to make a difference
Both far away
And right here
I want to matter
And people to remember
Me as a person who used her time wisely
By spreading the love of Christ
To those around her, undisguisedly.

Memories relived
Faces remembered
Feelings revisited
Again and over
Again
It just doesn't make sense
Why do I keep living
In the past tense
-
-another version-
-
Images, voices, emotions, relived.
Over and over
Again.
I can't escape from these
Faces, feelings, memories.
They've trapped me in.
Nothing is making sense.
I'm stuck living in
The past tense.

As I lie here listening
To the falling rain
It's easier for me to breathe
I don't feel any pain
It's as if the world
Stops for awhile
Giving me the space I need
To let it all go, with a smile

Oh God of everlasting peace,
Send a flood, wash over me,
Til every crack and crevice,
Is beautifully complete.

A glimpse,
So soft, so sudden,
Of what could be.

A touch,
So warm, so tender,
Intoxicating me.

However,
I know, deep down,
'Tis a dangerous thing.

Heart beat
Head flood
Only you
Can stop the blood

Head rift
Heart drift
In forgotten sea
Of reverie

Heart in the clouds
Head on the ground
Why must I forever be
Tethered to reality

Opposites
Clash
Complements
Harmonize

Heart and mind finally agree,
As I realize,
None of this is up to me.
Closing my eyes,
I will let things be.
I give my dreams,
My fears, and feelings,
To the One who redeems.
His plan he's concealing,
Until the time He deems,
Fit for it's revealing.
