Nothing but a word
That's how it all began
The word became flesh
When His dream became Man
Thought of before conception
Chosen before birth
Planned out before existence
His vessels on this earth
He could have done it all
For in His eyes, all was done
But He made us partakers of His pleasure
In every victory won
Created like seeds
True forms locked within
Revealed through work over time
And a partnership with Him
Tormented soul,
in your pain you won't
let go of the blood that is due.
You pierce your claws
in the diseased heart
of the being that wounded you.
Yet did you not know,
my beloved child,
that it is you, yourself, that you stab?
As unforgiving veins
scorch from within,
and you lose much more than you had.
You are so young,my love.
The wind in your hair even knows your time
And the sky,it lives in your heart
In the end,nothing's even worth a dime.
You speak of war as if it's a game
But when does it end?
If I give you peace,
Would you try to live enough to tell
There are no monsters under your bed
And no beasts within your satin sheets
The nights are full of fire
And the fire's full of heat
"If to smoke you turn,
I shall not cease to fiddle while you burn"
Dear Rome...You gave us happiness and joy
But your walls hold darkness somewhere in return
-I will build you up again,my dear Rome,-
I looked at the waves of the sea.

Why He died (Easter 2012) by raelyn-earfalas, literature

Why He died (Easter 2012)
On Good Friday
Our Lord Jesus died
So that Man could
Be justified
And have our sins
All washed away
By His blood
And Holy name.
For all our wrongs
A price was paid
So we'd be forgiven
And be righteous made.
For though we had hurt Him
His forgiveness He ne'er delayed;
He gave up His right of offense
And looked to the Father instead
To pour unto us Grace,
Love, & Mercy true
So that we could be like Him
And forgive others too.
On Easter morning
He rose again
So that we could have Hope
(If hope should wane)
During the times things
Felt worse than death
We'd look to His resurrection
And God's life-giving breath.
I've got rosy red lips that could eat you up
glass eyes ready to lure anyone unfortunate
enough to get too close for their own luck
just flip the coin and say how feminine I am
looking today, such words never numerous
enough to be heard in time
tell me, you want a woman like me to be there
to bear your children and see them smile at us
act surprised when I get technical and brutal
tell me, how delicate and sweet I can be when
the mood strikes just precisely, tell me more
tell me everything while the doubts tick away
Poets find your presence in the fire and the storm.
They seek you in majesty.
They look at mountains and see the ridges of your thumbprint.
They cry your praise when you paint the autumn.
They throw open their hearts to the sun.
They marvel as the cold kernel stirs to life.
But you are in the bitter days as well,
the afternoons so dull I could weep.
You are the maker of anthills as well as mountains,
and the stately wake of the single crackled leaf.
You drew the colour from the sunset and breathed grey fog.
You kill some seeds, barren rocks that litter the ground and will never grow.
You are in despair as well as in triumph -- per

Keeping faith and believing
I know you see me
I know you're here with me
but if i look up
i dont see you in sight
I know you're there
I know you're in my heart
but to tell you the truth
I wish you were still here with me
I know i need faith
i know i need to believe
So i keep my chin held high
cause i know you're with me
I know you're in my heart
and forever been
I know you're here with me
even to this day
I pray every night
hoping that you're alright
cause deep down grandma
i truly miss you
I know ýou're with me
i know you taught me faith
I have to start believing
I need my faith back inside me
Droplets of rain
Pelt down
hard,
I try to forget you,
But I don't know how,
Or where to start.
I try to wash
Away all my tears,
To drown my sorrows
In transgression and fear.
I try to love another,
An unrequited attempt.
Love seeketh me not,
And shuns me with fear.
The shadows are my refuge;
The cold,
And the dark.
I wallow in sadness,
And sorrow,
Down Hearted.
Hopeless
And lost,
I cry in vain.
I drown in my sorrows,
Lost in the rain.
My mystical fairy by MyLoveForYouEternity, literature
Literature
My mystical fairy
She is oh so beautiful in the day
and dangerous at night
fighting all my dreams
and helping me stay safe
She is precious to me
but vicious to everyone else
a mystical creature
that has saved my life
She is oh so pretty
with her sparkling eyes
so tiny
yet very precious
She is a precious fairy
but evil to everyone else
She is as sweet as can be
until someone hurts her
She is special to me
a wonderful fairy i ever had
Mystical as can be
after all this is a dream i had!
Glancing at these hands that are mine
I'm bewondered as I stare
With these hands I can build a wall
around the gardens I hold dear
But with these hands I can tear them down
leaving not a single brick unturned
With these hands I bring life or death
What I give Your eyes discern
So I glance at these hands of mine
ignorant to what they do
I notice not if they break or build
Not knowing the fate they lead me to
