Welcome

My resolution for 2010 was to write a poem every day. By January 2nd I had already failed. Instead of scrapping the idea as a whole, I decided that to keep myself accountable I would post my writings to this blog every day. This place has changed a lot since then and so have I. While I'm not trying to write a poem every day anymore, I still love using this as a platform to share my thoughts, feelings and experiences with other people. So welcome to the public recording of my life. Feel free to hang out for a while. Read some old stuff, read some new stuff, or just listen to some music. Hopefully you enjoy yourself and maybe something here will speak to you in a way I couldn't have ever imagined.

(Un)Deserving

Choking, strangling, drowning without You.
The world is the trap that I am drawn to.
It can give me nothing, fulfills no need.
I want a different air than what I've breathed.

I am reinvented in Your prescence,
raised from a dead or dying essesnce.
Now I can feel my lungs become the sails,
that only Your breath of life can propel.

From this cliffside Eden of hope and love
I glance down at the sea and leap from above.
Save me in Your endless mercy and grace;
catch, carry me back to this perfect place.

I've earned nothing and You deserve it all.
But still You save me from my self-inflicted fall.
I can never repay this wonderful grace,
so I will live my life to sing Your praise.
