There was once a fresh stick of gum. She was selected out of the pack of her gum family at just the right time. With a pocket stuffed with promises. Full of flavor and natural color, she brought joy and pleasure to her environment - filling the place with mouthwatering pleasantries. But far sooner than she thought, [...]

Shadow Self
It seems like my true self, this inner kid, has been carried off by my Father. They are out on adventures in the wilderness, the son being taught skills and training for a new life. He is being shown a whole new world I am not a part of. Though we are the same, there is [...]
Shadowboxing Isn’t Nothing
God I can't handle these feelings for much longer or I will be the one that explodes. My blood will paint the surroundings red and my body parts will be found all over the place. It's so much worse that I don't even know what I'm feeling. Am I crazy? Moved to tears by this [...]
Caffeinated Christian
You say money doesn't rule your life, but when I ask you why your aren't pursuing your dream, You say, "I can't afford to. My life's not what it seems." You have been deceived once again my friend. You see with the ink in this pen, Lord willing, it will trigger your thinking again. Dream again. [...]
Cryptic Conscious
You found my heart rolling down the filthy stairs of a crypt. Collecting dust and dirt as it hits each step. It keeps falling out of my chest. I try to keep a hand on it to stay in place, but my palms are holes. You see right through me. At the top of what's [...]

Shouldn't I be planning how to save the most souls? A five-year plan to reach all my goals? Instead of living in a pensieve. Revisiting memories like [...]

I shut the doors and pray for rain, I hope you will not do the same. Because this cloud is freaking lame. It has a face that's cut with pain. Draw the shades and come lie down. As the drops soak in the ground. Your tears fill your pillow too. Nothing changes, never new. Repeat [...]
Frozen Fountain
John 7:38 "He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.” God, You are a star in my life I can only see when it's dark. A reminder of hope, I can still play my part. The sun comes up in the morning haze, [...]
Hips and Lips Part II- The Rescuing
Awoken by an unfamiliar noise, I had the strangest dream of falling into the void. I'm in the same place I was before, Under the deck, surrounded by a scene of gore. Ankle deep in bodies in the witch's den. Then I hear that curious noise again. Last I remember, I wore a noose around [...]
Hips And Lips
"All at once he followed her... little knowing it will cost him his life." Proverbs 7:22-23 A playful glance turns to seduction, as eyes meet across the room. My stare lingers and I fear she will have her way soon. Her irises look like they hold the galaxy. The illusion will last the night, disguising [...]
