Twisted to suit certain situations
Often missing out on celebrations
Too much contemplation of negative means
Nervous so often of trivial things
Belief is as far as it always has been
No trust yet still in men
Friendly but friendless
Helpful but still helpless
Inside it stays
Displaying on the outside in frays.
Please Try,
by MwsR
The pit of my stomach wants to give you more chances
Despite all the critical onlooker’s glances.
They think there is no hope for you
Yet they don’t love or hope for you as I do.
I am scared to let you lie to me again
I am afraid my forgiveness will fail here towards the end
I hurt for you
All those plans and things might not come true.
The telling you, I love you, is simple
But trusting you is hard and cumbersome, like water with a ripple
It would appear to be in control
But really it is struggling, you know.
Inside each person, we need to decide whether the importance is given to unimportant things
And if along the road it will be worth all the pains.
Sometimes in a brief second, I catch glances of times past
In my heart what I want is for the good times to last.
Sadly, it is not in my hands
I have given you all my demands
Yet you shrugged and then walked away
Seems tears are all came from that one day
I fall to my knees and constantly pray.
Maybe one more day, maybe one more start
Or maybe it will stay heavy on my heart.
Please try!
You know why.
“Not today”, by MwsR
“Can I talk to you?” I say
You reply, “Not today.”
I wonder if you know the sleepless nights I lay awake and cry
Do you know how hard it has been? I feel like I could die.
I sometimes run for the phone thinking this time it will be you,
But it seldom ever is, oh how I wish it to be you, it’s true!
You say you’re busy and you say it’s okay.
But I know things are not that way.
I wonder if you contemplate your future for even a little?
Do you know you put us in the middle?
I wish that you had of listened while you were still here,
Then we would not have so much to endure.
Sometimes whether you acknowledge things or not
Time has a way of securing the endless knot.
The kind that burns down deep inside a person’s soul,
The one that wants let me let you go.
I often sit and think about the past
But I know it isn’t there that matters, it is in what is here that lasts.
If we can take what little we think we are or the little we have,
We can cover any wound, just like a salve.
Please come out of this funk you are in
Look around and start again.
Make the most of each day you’ve been given
Start taking charge and start believing.
Life gives us sometimes, only one chance to change.
Don’t let trouble mess you up, or help to pass the blame.
You are in my heart, my soul and mind,
Now it is time to take off those blinders because you aren’t blind.
When I ask you to talk, say okay.
I might just have something important to say.
I don’t want to take your time,
Just want you to know I will give you mine.
I will help where help is to be given
But it is truly your life, your own life you have and need to be living.
So many people are focused right now
To the virus that is sweeping through the town
The focus is only to remain free
From all the germs and infectious seeds
Instead of concentrating on their eternal soul
They worry over physical things, I’m told
Never give much mind
To the eternal part, they are so blind.
Sure, noone wants to be sick and poor
Noone wants to suffer anymore
Sadly, the eternal life we can get
Takes a back seat to all the fret
No one looks into their soul’s demise
Plans for the inevitable last day, they remain so blind
Think about the everlasting, the eternal home
Take guard against the enemies of the soul
Greed, lust, envy, and more
Our life will not end on this earth’s shore
We will have a place to go,
It will be a heavenly one or a fiery hole.
Prepare, don’t despair
More in this life than what we have to bare.
More than this!
Journey Till, by MwsR
Twisted, in knots of which way to go?
You are not alone in this thinking, you know.
Forward just a little, but backward always just a little more.
Forgotten ideas pour out on your mind’s big floor.
Fantastic was the beginning,
For such a fragile, complicated thing.
Decisions that will impact the journey for you.
Still uncertain of what to do?
Closed minds cannot give admittance for great things,
It is time you free yourself from your chains.
Expand your possibilities
To eliminate your negativity.
Journey till you can go no more,
Then you will have all your looking for.
A man with a heavenly start
Came to the earth when the clouds did part.
He lived among the saints and the sinners
He preached so we all could be eternal winners.
Temptation he withstood
Aways taught us to be like we should.
Anger and deceit finally took reign
No one to stop death for him, he took the blame.
You could hear whispers of his holy name.
Faultless he bore it all
So we all could be with him, and rise up tall.
He was laid in a tomb in a poor sort of way
Then he miraculously arose from the grave, in three days.
My! my Savior can walk with me
He can talk to me
And he tells me I am his own.
Praise be to His Holy Name, and to his throne.
He is Alive!

Change, by MwsR
When the time comes that you reflect over your life and things you’ve done
Will you see someone smart or someone dumb?
Those things you thought were fun,
The things that you swore hurt no one.
Were they worth it?
Were they proper or were they like that of a nitwit?
Are the ones that stood with you now standing apart?
You already know the answer because it is deep in your heart.
Time can’t erase certain deeds, certain paths you chose, the things left undone,
You can’t blame that on anyone.
Certain people let you down, you say
I’m certain they would not see it that way!
No one controls your spontaneous combustion,
It is certainly your life, not theirs that needs constant adjustment.
Go ahead smell all those “roses”,
Hang around all those that constantly poses,
But when that gets old or you find some other venue
Maybe you will see what you’ve put those that love you through.
It’s hard to be happy when you’re playing catch up all the time
Trust me, I’ve seen that with friends of mine.
Think before you act
Always leave things intact.
Don’t refuse to pay back anyone who’s lent you a hand
Take the praise and the reprimand.
Swallow your pride,
Keep your mouth closed from the inside.
Listen to reason,
Be willing to change the wrong things just like the months change the season.
“And you will be a man, my son.” (If, by Rudyard Kipling”)
Peace by MwsR
As I rise my mind sorts through
All the things of this new day I must do.
No rest, even though I am tired
No forgetting of troubles, I know, I have tried.
So much before me still left unfinished
The need to get them done has not diminished.
My body’s issues and pains
Make me feel like a dog that’s chained.
I wish for peace down in my soul
A place of safety few will ever know.
With the light of a new day, I can attempt again,
I hope that I find this before my end.
I will keep trying, doing things over and over till it is there.
One minute, one day at a time, even if it takes a whole year.
