Thank you for being loud enough to fight off my demons
Pealing my past like snake skin
Thank you for being soothing enough when I'm crying
Soaking up the "years" from within
Thank you for saying what my heart stumbles with
Stuttering out the pain I want to shake
Thank you for saving my head from disrespect
Wrapping your arms around me when I wake
Thank for covering my soul
Blanketing the warmth I still need
Thank you for showing me an out
With a door to the me I long to be
These are moments from my heart on the emotions good, bad or ugly to the world of Parenting, Being a Godly Husband or even moments of inspiration as we all strive to become better at who God's called us to be.
Careless Whispers
You threw them out like a grenade
with no care for what damage you've done
One right after the other I can barely catch my breathe
Wondering when the hurt will stop
Or I have the strength to run
As I look around at the debris youve made
I feel like I'm at war
Yet you were once the place I found shelter
And I can barely get myself up off the floor
Your words don't reflect your head
I can't unhear what you've said
But now that your heart is exposed
I will rise out before I explode
Your words are careless
Your tongue caused such a mess
Yet I how do rise from how you've painted me
From the lingering thoughts that pins down what I want to be
with no care for what damage you've done
One right after the other I can barely catch my breathe
Wondering when the hurt will stop
Or I have the strength to run
As I look around at the debris youve made
I feel like I'm at war
Yet you were once the place I found shelter
And I can barely get myself up off the floor
Your words don't reflect your head
I can't unhear what you've said
But now that your heart is exposed
I will rise out before I explode
Your words are careless
Your tongue caused such a mess
Yet I how do rise from how you've painted me
From the lingering thoughts that pins down what I want to be
