And there you stood in a stillness

Far from that I knew

But I watched you in such realness

Without envy but a love that grew

Young and full of God

A life I could not obtain

Addiction had me broken

My life, and made me so full of shame!

But there in my lowest

I knew God had placed you there

For such a greater purpose

When I thought no one would care

Those chains had bound my heart

Those desires had such a hold

My demons made me weak

And my addiction had made me cold.

Today I see such beauty in this path

That God has paved

For He took all the dirt

And a new foundation He has laid!

I want you to know I see you

The joy and even the pain

To walk with you through them both

And love you without gain!

To be your friend is such a blessing

To be someone who will give you strength

To cast your tears upon

To give you joy when you are weak.

To know you is a gift

To share in your life, is a blessing I know

One I will never take for granted

One that is sure to grow.

I love you at your weakest

And respect you when you are less

There you stood in a stillness

With you I feel so blessed!

A painful travel...

this circle of life which seems to be handed unfair.

For the wrong, consistent praise while those of right are unnoticed without a care.

The truth is almost never honored while the lies of man become so.....

The consequences for the crooked man are praised on a pedestal for show.

Hypocrites become our leaders while enemies become our friends

while the loyal and true stand sadly alone fighting til the bitter end.

So what do we say of this world that has raised such dishonorable man?

Have faith and never stop praying...remember who wins in the end!

Forever

   You see,  I was very young when I met the love of my life.

I didn't know how to be a friend, a love or a wife.
I loved you, so I thought with  everything inside of me, but I was living in a dark place.

    No one could see and  I don't know how you came upon me.

   I had so many other men , I just kept thinking about you and I knew eventually, it would be you in the end.
I cannot believe that I would never hold your hand. I don't remember telling you I didn't want you anymore.
I don't understand.

If I could love you the way I love you now, I would've given you far more time and chance.
A chance  to see our love.

I was just being young and free and, I couldn't see.
    That choice brought me two beautiful girls with the man I chose but deep inside my heart,  I knew one day he would go.

It wasn't just one, two or three it was also an addiction that lived  inside of me .

    My addiction was even more of a love than  anyone else I ever had. It took me to great links of sadness and made me feel hopeless, unworthy and mad to have anyone love me. You held our memories within your thoughts, kept me captive and your love kept me home, but I never could imagine, how we would end up in love.

     I never knew anyone that could wait so long and you would be waiting waiting.

How does a person hang on so long and not become broken or hatred in your heart if only I had known  I would have never left you from the start,

     But,  then who to say we would be together today we might not have ever been together in the end so if I can spend this last 50 years with you and I'll take that and from here we will  begin.

     I know that we may disagree and maybe even not get along but as long as there's a breath of me, you'll be in my forever song! As long as God chooses and keeps awakening me every day.

      I hope it's your face that I see. There is no one  else they can make me feel this way.
So at home when you wrap me in your arms and hold me tight

      I never wanna let go of that. Never want to stop kissing your lips or holding your hand telling you how much I appreciate you as a man.

      I love you, I never want to lose you again. I'm so grateful and I still wonder if I'm worthy for that love.

     For  some reason when you touch me I know it's a love from heaven above. I can't even tell you the gratitude that I feel for you for the love you have for me for the time you had to heal from what I had done and taking advantage of things that I cannot see .

    So so great, something my mind cannot comprehend being  with you again it's like you are chosen to be my soulmate.

I never want to spend another year without you by my side.

       I don't ever wanna say goodbye.

I wanna lay next to you every single night I want to give you every single  part of my life.
And enjoy every moment we have left. Forever  I want to see when I take my last breath.

Silence

Silence.... No worthless words of nonsense and

chatter of this and that and things that don't matter

Of gossip and lies that flow from the tongue

Adding that extra from the old to the young

Silence....no blabbering ignorance or things of no
concern; no words of pain to make  a heart burn.

No answers to questions that were never asked or bringing up painful things of the past.

How easy for negative to be thrown from our lips or pieces of truth that are that but mean this.

How careless the tongue to be so very sharp because we don't forget the words; they can tear us apart.

Be kind and share love. Ask what would Jesus do? Stop blabbering you tongue and know that Jesus has you!

Because on your last days when you take your last breathe, what will you remember and what will others forget.
Will they speak

Of your lies and your breathe of deceit, will they cry from your passing and pretend to be meek?

Will they forget your good and remember the bad and when thoughts of you come, they become sad?

Silence is golden just listen, listen without word only then will your soul be heard.

This long awaited path with its twists and curves and turns
Has long awaited me and in my heart has burned
It's taken me down some roads that I never thought would end
But God wasn't willing to let me go and He kept holding my hand
This long awaited journey that seemed to lead to nowhere
Times of endless battle where God was waiting  for me to prepare
The dirt roads have been muddy with many obstacles to face
But God has paved them all with His mercy and His grace
The times I felt unworthy and thought I could not go on
He carried me through the storms that today seem long gone
I never take for granted all the blessing in my life
For God has made me worthy to have peace and not have strife
