Breathe

Breathe
As a mighty wind 
Upon me

Let it calm 
my soul, sooth 
my aching heart.

Like rain 
are my 
tears. 

They flow as 
of a rushing 
river.

Stopping only
for a spilt 
second.

Stop the rain 
O’ Lord I pray

Let it pass so 
the sun will shine 
in the morn.

Let there be a 
new song upon my heart 
so that I may sing 
unto you.

Watch as they ju

Untitled Prose

It is like flipping through a photo album, yet each photo takes on a life of its own. They’re a wormhole, sucking me in with nothing to grasp on to, so I have no choice but to endure the ride. Now as I travel back to reality, I find myself sitting back at my desk with a pen in my hand. I tap the pen onto the paper, hoping it will spark some inspiration, but still the words remain hidden. They’re somewhere in my jumbled mind, behind a door with no key. Frustration is my worst enemy. The words won’t escape from their prison to roam free on the page. A part of me wants to toss it aside, to keep my words imprisoned. But another part of me knows that this is the work of the one who is set to destroy and letting him win is not an option. My heart needs to spill out onto the page.   I pace my dimly lit room, letti
