inside (lyrics)
Cowering in fear
a life without meaning
my purpose in vain
exist without feeling
I turn up the music
to the threshold of pain
drown out the voices
all shackled in chains
Don’t know where to go
there’s nowhere to hide
’cause you can’t run
from the monster inside
Challenge (article)
It is only through challenge that one can see
the true depth of their beliefs.

The Bookstore (a poem)
I relish the feeling of crisp new pages,
the scent of ink in the air.
Some, may speak of enchanted places.
A handsome prince, a maiden fair.
Do you trust me? (thoughts)
When God asks you a question
it definitely gets your attention.
When He asks, “Do you trust me?”
it takes it to a whole new level.
Timing is everything (thoughts)
Tonight, my spouse and I watched
another episode of Early Edition,
season two, entitled
“Angels and Devils”.
Child (a poem)
I am a dog lying in the doorway, a casual observer of clouds, filled with excitement, I run, spin, fall, arise, and do it again. I am an explorer of worlds, paddling down a stream. seeing old places as though new. filled with life and thought.
What Might Have Been (a poem)
Most times I think
we choose to see
things through a filter
of what could be
casting stones (a poem)
When it’s there to plainly see,
the sin in someone’s life,
am I first to cast a stone,
or will I carve the line?
Us versus Them (a poem)
Long after the war has ended,
it rages in our hearts.
Continually choosing sides,
is driving us apart.
Finding some small difference,
separates the two.
In the war of us and them,
it’s time for us to choose.
