as far as i can tell it has been 21 days since my last post.
far too long for my own good.
blogging. writing. was meant to keep me on track. keep me focused.
but i have let myself just say i'll do it soon, and soon never comes.
i've become the same way with many spiritual disciplines.
so here is another attempt at one week straight.
a blog post a day for 7 days in a row.
i've done it once before, though barely.
quite a bit i suppose ... Read More

tape me up
seal me good
get me in the largest strait jacket you can find
pad the locks
throw away the keys
swallow the combo
wrap me up
i need prevention, some intervention
for my actions bring you pain
my words destroying all the same
i break the golden rule
i speak when there's nothing nice to say
i display the ever unkind
i live the epitome of hurt
all i do is hurt
pass the grey duct
tape my mouth so its ever sealed shut
better yet cut some string
sew this cursed thing
sew those lips and lock ... Read More

i need the stomach punch
i need the wind knocked out
the wind of me, my pride, and i
hit me. punch me. break me down.
i need to breathe You in
i need to breathe me out
inhale all of You
drink in Your spirit,
exhale mine all out
pour me out, please pour me out
i'm letting go
i'm breathing out
i'm giving up
i'm breathing out
i surrender, i surrender
i'm breathing surrender
it's all got to go
it's all coming out
it's time to release
to let it all out
surrendering i am
and breathing me out
taking You in
You're ... Read More

6 dollars in my wallet.
6 days until i take my sat's.
15 days of school completed.
48 days until application for chapman is due.
65 days until my last first high school varsity basketball game.
257 days until i graduate(includes weekends and non school days).
yesterday. friday. last day of the week.
i grew frustrated over little things.
things that didn't matter.
i displayed a non Christ like attitude.
it had built up and was slowly revealing itself.
last period of the day. precal. doesn't help any.
but this time it did.
in the ... Read More

i've got no direction
i can't find rewind
i guess its time to fly
just go with the flow
to where i don't know
i just want to grow...
looking for pause
but stuck in fast forward
wishing for normal
but meant to live abnormal
you got your act together
i can't seem to find my scene
the stage is set
the lines unknown
the curtains drawn
looks like it's time to just go
i've only got one shot at this thing called life
i get one chance
no intermissions, no time outs, and not a single re-do
i get one ... Read More
