Made Up

I’ve done my hair, each one in place and put more make-up on my face. Painted my nails, fingers and toes. I’m in disguise, nobody knows. I’ve gotten dressed, designer clothes. Set for display in daily shows. I’ve worked so hard to look just right. Won’t you approve of me tonight? I’ve done my best.... Sign in to see full entry.

Please give your input. I'm posting this on all my blogs for critic.

UW is looking for a new fight song. I just wrote this on the bus on my way to work this morning. It needs editing, and whatever insights you'd like to offer would be greatly appreciated.

I Laugh

I laugh as my heart sighs I laugh as my soul cries I sigh as my heart breaks I cry as my soul aches I laugh to hide the pain I laugh but all in vain I hide my silent tears I cry yet no one hears I laugh, but as I do You laugh while crying too Sign in to see full entry.

I Have What You Have For Me

I am Your poetry. Lord, write Your Word in me Until I’m a perfect reflection of you. I am Your own design. Lord, live Your life through mine Until I’ve done all You’d have me to do. I am Your piece of art. Lord, break my world apart Until I’m willing to humbly bow. I am Your tapestry. Lord, weave... Sign in to see full entry.

It was hard; I had fallen and was out on my own. It was far, but you were callin’ for me to come back home. There was fear, doubt and anger, mostly of the unknown.

The Rialto

The stage is empty, the shadows grow dark Lines go unspoken, but still leave their mark Silver spun cobwebs where curtains were drawn No more performers, but the show must go on Dim the lights of the house, strike up the band Bring in the choir on my command Ladies and Gentlemen: may we proudly...

Rescue Me

I’m in the lifeboat, the struggles of men Trying to prove my worth all over again Is there a rescue? Is there a friend? The boat’s overcrowded and we’re all sinking Rescue me; won’t You rescue me? I lift my hands so You can see I’m here waiting for delivery Caught in a storm on a raging sea But You... Sign in to see full entry.

My Desire

( I don't know what this is called, but see if you can recognize the pattern) This I pray Give me strength for another day Re-build my confidence by showing me the areas where I excel And reassuring me when I fail That I'm the child whom You will always love no matter how many times I fall However...
