Shadow's poems

Postby shadowblade » Mon Nov 08, 2004 3:20 pm

Well, it's a lot easier keeping everything together like this, so I think I'm gonna do that from now on.

Unspoken
Dig deeper the hole
Burrow into my soul
What was whole
Is now cold
Because I won't let it be told
My love never unfold
Burning flames of old
Hearts were sold
Feelings mold
To bitterness, this I foretold
Perhaps my soul froze
Perhaps my heart closed
No seeds sown
No feelings grown
Because such love have I disowned

Life is not about us using God for our purposes, but about Him using us for His purposes.

Faith is not creating a false reality, but acknowledging God's promises for us.

The dreams I dream for you
Are deeper than the ones your clinging to
Let the old dreams die
Like stars that fade from view
And take the cup I offer
And drink deeply of the dreams I dream for you
-Avalon


[color=Navy]Bill: Ted, you and I have witnessed many things, but nothing as bodacious as what just happened.
Besides, we told ourselves to listen to this guy...
Ted: But what if we were lying?
Bill: Why would we lie to ourselves?

Don't look back
Look at how far we've come
Not nearly enough
But further than yesterday
Keep progressing
Don't look down, don't look back
You'll fall, stay focused
Here, take my hand
Never fear, I'll help you
There you go, keep moving
I'm right here.
Don't look down, don't look back
You'll fall, stay focused
The mountain's steep
Don't let that bother you
I know you've tripped often
But that's why I'm here
Don't look down, don't look back
You'll fall, stay focused
The cold wind bites your skin
You shiver violently
Against its bitterly icy touch
Don't let yourself go numb
Don't look down, don't look back
You'll fall, stay focused
Remember, I'm here beside you
I'll always support you
I'll always help you
I'll always stay
Don't look down, don't look back
You'll fall, stay focused
Look at the peak!
It's not that far!
Yes, always look ahead
We're very high... don't be scared!
Hold on tight
And don't look back.

Prayer
Lend me Your strength, Lord
So I will not falter
Send me Your peace, Lord
Calm my restless spirit
Give me Your Love, Lord
To help push me onward
Fill me with joy, Lord
Please raise my spirit

I will not fall, Lord
Will not be broken
He will not win, Lord
This is Your battle
You're always here, Lord
Don't leave me now
Stay by my side, Lord
Hold me together

Reveal Your Mercy, Lord
Though I'm not worthy
Pardon my sins, Lord
Help me forgive others
Smile upon me, Lord
I need Your goodness
Grant me the priviledge, Lord
Of being with You

I will not fall, Lord
Will not be broken
He will not win, Lord
This is Your battle
You're always here, Lord
Don't leave me now
Stay by my side, Lord
Hold me together

Shine down upon me, Lord
Your light gives me courage
Guide my steps, Lord
Alone I will stumble
Keep me forever, Lord
On the right path
Show me Your Will, Lord
And make me willing

I will not fall, Lord
Will not be broken
He will not win, Lord
This is Your battle
You're always here, Lord
Don't leave me now
Stay by my side, Lord
Hold me together

And here's my newest. Well, it's not really that new; I wrote it a few months ago, but it's new for you guys. :) I just picked a few of my favorite Bible verses and just played around with them a little. :)

Gone with the Wind
Sleep a little
Doze a little
Fold your hands
Twiddle your thumbs
Soon all you have is gone with the wind

We were meant to live our God-given life to the fullest
That we may glorify our Father in heaven
Who gave His Only Begotten Son
Because God is love
Is long-suffering, love is kind
Love is not envious, willing to trust
In the Lord with all your heart
And lean not on your own understanding
Is the knowledge of the Holy One
Who is in Heaven while we are on earth
So we should let our words be few
In respect of our Lord and Savior
Who takes away the sins of the world
Why waste times on things that do not last?
That is as senseless as chasing the wind
This world will soon fade away
But His Word remains

Sleep a little
Doze a little
Fold your hands
Twiddle your thumbs
Soon all you have is gone with the wind

There is a time for everything
But not time to do everything

most excellent!
great job and keep it up! :thumb: ^_^
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone
And so hold on when there is nothing left in you
Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on!' ...you'll be a Man, my son!

Just an old poem of mine. :) I was just thinking about God and His amazing love for us. Hope you guys like it. ^_^

WHY?
WHY DO YOU GIVE
WHEN I DON'T WANT?
WHY DO YOU CARE
WHEN I DON'T DESERVE?
WHY DO YOU SACRIFICE
FOR MY SOUL'S SAKE
BUT EXPECT NOTHING?

WHY DO YOU SMILE
AND TRUST IN ME
THE WAY THAT I
SHOULD TRUST IN YOU?

WHY DO YOU LOVE ME
WHEN I'M WRONG
WHEN I'M RIGHT
IT'S ALL THE SAME?

WHY DO YOU GIVE
WHEN I DON'T WANT?
WHY DO YOU CARE
WHEN I DON'T DESERVE?
WHY DO YOU SACRIFICE
FOR MY SOUL'S SAKE
BUT EXPECT NOTHING?

WHY DON'T YOU LEAVE
LIKE EVERYONE ELSE
WHO LOVED ME ONCE
THEN RAN AWAY?

WHY DON'T YOU BETRAY
RIGHT NOW, PLEASE QUICKLY
AND GET IT DONE
BEFORE IT HURTS?

WHY DO YOU GIVE
WHEN I DON'T WANT?
WHY DO YOU CARE
WHEN I DON'T DESERVE?
WHY DO YOU SACRIFICE
FOR MY SOUL'S SAKE
BUT EXPECT NOTHING?

NOTHING AT ALL.

You have a distinctively fast-paced style. It seemed fairly good, although I will confess all I have done is scanned over them. Keep it up.
Take it like you gave it; what else matters in the end? To be honest, it's all a one-shot test; that leaves plenty of places to go wrong, but how will you ever know? There's a pointer, I will admit. Turn it on, listen to it, feel it burn.

Your poetry is really good. :) I look forward to seeing more from you.
Absence is to love as wind is to a flame. It extinguishes the little, it ignites the great.

Life is a test. It is only a test. Had this been real life you would have have been instructed where to go and what to do.

When i argue with reality I lose.....But only 100% of the time.

Once you've decided on a course of action, only you can finish it. As long as you remember that, there's nothing you can't accomplish.

hey, cool, good job on that one!!
