Let me Live

You cannot tell me how to live.
I will fall but get back up
You cannot change a streak of badluck
Or prevent a blessing in disguise
If I should fall and scrape my knee,
Please hand me a bandaid and let it be
If I am jumping for joy
Then jump with me in jubilee.
I will not live in fear but faith
I will trust that He knows where I am headed
I will trust that He knows what is best
All I can do is live
So place your judgments elsewhere
You know not my heart and it's condition
Please do not presume that you know best.
I love that you care, but your smothering is killing me slowly and painfully
I have enough guilt and shame on my own without you piling more on also
I will not tell you anything
You have lost that privilege and will never know
Because you are blinded by your own "righteousness"
I have someone higher to confide in
His opinion is the only one that matters
I want to learn from my own mistakes
Not hear what I should and should not do according to you
You broke me that night
At first all was well
You were speaking truth
Then you let yourself be blinded by what "is best for me"
But all I heard was ignorance and misplaced hatred and distrust
Do you honestly think I would be so stupid as to make the same mistake twice?
No, I have learned.
I am not a child, so please don't presume that I should be treated as one.
This is where I am.
Whether you're here with me or not,
I will not be moved by you.
I will step forward and not look back until I hear His command
I have a path to follow which may not make sense to you
But please do not judge me for that.
You do not know where it is that I am going
So please do not try to put me on the path of your making
But rejoice with me as I walk down the one He has made.

Fairy Tale

You're like a fairy tale that I have made
In the depths of my mind you seem to stay
A memory, meant for me.
Something close to the surface still I cannot see
Who it could be, I don't know.
I toss a penny into the sea and watch it sink
I guess that means no wish for me
But how about a prayer if you please?
Mr. starfish let me see.
Into the depths that I have made.
Is that where my true love must stay?
Let the sirens take me down
I will not fight away but follow
To spend just one moment down below
In my fairy tale

Salutations to the Moon

The moon is a liar and the stars his accomplice
He promised me riches and fame
But what was i left with?
Shame and a broken heart.

I knew I knew better,
But I gave him the benefit of the doubt.
Again I was taken advantage of
And trampled upon once more.

Mr. Moon why did you have to be so good?
Mr. Moon why did you have to be so cruel?
I loved you and let you in my room
But you used and abused your privileges
Leaving me with shame and a broken heart

You left in the morning and left me there
Laying alone and confused when the sun came in.
Not sure if I had made a mistake
Or if I was full of life like I've never known before.

But now I know...
I know how you manipulate
I know how convincing you can be
I know how you lie.

Mr. Moon, I thought I knew you.
I wanted you to know me.
But you never asked the right questions
And now I'm glad you didn't...
At least my heart is something I was able to hold onto, if not my innocence.

The moon is a liar and the stars are his accomplices.
They laughed as he stole what was not his.
He lied his way into my bed.
Leaving me alone in the morning
Left with nothing but,
Shame and a broken heart

Follow Me

Follow me tonight,
And we shall know the moon...

Follow me and learn the story,
A story of adventure and love...

Where does the story end?
Only you can decide..

Which path will you choose?
There is dark and there is light...

I will show which one I prefer,
But it is ultimately your decision...

Can we dance under the stars?
As the waves crash against our feet...

Join me here love,
Join me and love me...

Will you do that?
Come with me and you will see...

See what lies ahead,
And what has passed...

Darling

you bring sunshine with you darling.
you bring light and warmth.

you give me butterflies darling.
you give me flutters and drops.

will you stay with me darling?
will you stay and just be?

can I keep you darling?
can I keep you close by me?
