Ignorance

Ignorance
Alone - In it's cold room
Shuts enlightenment out
It's destiny - A blissful tomb

A Greater Purpose

We all have want for something great

To feel down deep it’s not too late

That good will come of routine blah

Escape our winter, start to thaw

And find the spring that brings us light

Purpose that helps us know what’s right

Though chains of plain, and chains of grief

Hold us back from desired relief

We can’t see the dark steps ahead

We fear the course, begin to dread

Our faith is weak, love’s hard to find

When nothings felt in heart and mind

What is there to encourage on

To help us move into the dawn

But that in which we must have trust

And deem our happiness a must

For joy will bring our promised land

Once we reject depressions hand

Ray LaMontagne - Empty

Well I looked my demons in the eyes
Laid bare my chest said do your best destroy me
See I've been to hell and back so many times
I must admit you kinda bore me

There's a lot of things that can kill a man
There's a lot of ways to die
Yes and some already dead that walk beside me
There's a lot of things I don't understand
Why so many people lie
Well it's the hurt I hide that fuels the fire inside me

Will I always feel this way
So empty, so estranged

La Perte d’un Coeur Rose

Sadness overcomes
Yet light still burns
It's hope, it's love
Eternal life we yearn

Sadness lingers
But hurt soon flees
With truth and prayer
Begging the Lord please

Sadness ceases
As time may heal
To know not why
But added faith we feel

Sadness gone
We'll soon embrace
That which was lost
Peace fills its place

Being Found

What hands can comfort the lost soul

Who wanders wayside all alone

What words can bring him needed peace

To make them feel that they are known

To walk a path no light to guide

Will granted cause one’s faith to stir

Their once paved road has reached an end

Direction gone - but still endures

For hope that one day soon will show

The needed light to bring them home

And feel the purpose why they’re here

And know HIS truth and that it cures

For Christ is there to lend His hand

No matter what, no matter when

His words are pure – His love for all

Will bring the lost soul home again

No Regrets

I've done some pretty dumb things in my life

Passed up friends who could’ve eased my strife

Sinned, slacked, said some stupid stuff

Broke up with girls who could’ve been a great wife

I’m sure you've found in your past the same

That choices you’ve made now seem quite lame

Hurt, heartache, hadn’t lent a helping hand

The confusion that comes for playing life’s game

But the second you or I begin to regret

Lose our faith, curse our past and start to fret

Confusion, chaos, can’t cease to cry

Is a sure way to despair for its agony we’ve met

So remember the good and know that we’re great

And to ask for forgiveness is never too late

Hope, happiness, healing in our heart

Comes from knowing that eternal joy is our fate.

A New Day

It’s sad to think of a happier day

That ends up leading you away

Just to feel the once cherished thought

And forget the blessing today has brought

To yearn for that of yesterday

Will only leave your life in gray

And keep your light from shining through

For each new day is a world anew

So make the sadness cease to stay

And learn to love your life today

Lost Pursuit

If love isn’t real, if love isn’t true

Then why am I always thinking of you

Why do I try to push you out of my mind

So that the so called “new road” I may find

Yet circle about and find my way back

To the lonely way where you I still lack

To destroy our past, to begin anew

Is harder than you think, impossible to do

As I stay my hand as to not interfere

With your new life, it is something to fear

That I should try to finally move on

That these thoughts of you soon will be gone

But as stated before, our love was through

Alas it’s you, I will always pursue.
