Majestic Lake

I think all I’ve really wanted
Was to know there’s light in dark.
To see true beauty
To hold a moonlit spark

Then you came in
Picture perfect sunset
Silver stoked crystal
Infant wave’s first break

What place does one,
As dark as I may be,
Have with those who walk
Seamlessly through eternity

My Majestic Lake
Robed in starlit night

Here men can fly
Lifted on fairies wings
To places beyond mere bedrooms
And infinite finitude
You’re those wings for me

Majestic Lake
Prismatic Night
Hope dwells hereAnd love takes flight

my shadow's the only one that walks beside me

Over and over again, I am spiraling into nothing

We have deep down diseases that don't even grieve us

Am I out of touch, or out of reach?

I kinda like the idea of having a b log that many people don't read. I knew when I signed up for blogger that this wasn't a well visited site. It's nice though. I like that people can look at my pictures if they want. I like that I can be more honest here. I'm tired of being fake. It's hard now- I thought I could be real with someone, with Josh. That's so dangerous.

Transparency is dangerous. You risk being hurt, and for me, it's happened. I want to go beyond self centered poetry, and self expressive art. Sometimes I even question the importance of friendship. I'm learning though that there are orders that God has established and sometimes I'm not going to understand them. I can't believe I'm leaving America in seven days. I really should be signing off though, I've got my last day of work tomorrow. Good night, my unknown audience....good night

Just outside my garage

TJ- last semester

I think that's gonna be it for now. I honestly don't know how long this will last. It's weird that I started it in the first place. Aren't we all wanting our blogs to be read, and I only know a couple people who are even on blogger... it's a cool concept though, so we'll see what happens.
