Real Deal
something real and true
no hype no show
something that is the real deal
no ritualistic fluff
a connection
something that hits home
no going through the motions
living for Christ
searching for more
than just the so called
searching for more
than just the everyday
what is that passion
what is that fire
what is that they have
that most people i know
seem unaware
no fire or spark
nothing but the everyday
isn't there more

somehow i wish
for what is not there...
somehow i reach
for what i can't have...
it isn't mine
was never meant to be
just how it is...
the way things are...
some people are meant
to change lives...
some people were made
to have an impact
others were more quiet
their lives were just there
not much that's it
just here...
that's my life...
everyone else lives life
experiences it sees it
lives it ...
i've mostly watched
some people have
others don't...
i don't never will
its my life...
its how it is...
nuff said.

what would others say...
when I'm not here
will they say ...
she had an impact on my life..
have I done anything
anything of purpose with the days I've had
for how many days will I have
will I make anything of them
some people.... leave a hole
some people are gone
and it isn't changed...
nothings different...
questions i ask...
simply because
many are afraid to ask
when i consider
i wonder
what there will be
what will others say
of my life...
have I made a difference
the one question...
that i wonder if its worth it
have i done anything at all

Lost
here again
wondering... lost and confused
not sure what to do
what's the next move
groping in the dark
walking blind
not sure if i'm going
where i'm supposed to be
is there a way to know
is there a way to go
is there something i should do
just tell me
doubts crowd in again
as i wonder once more
what it is i'm supposed to do
what it is I'm supposed do in life
don't want to settle
don't want to miss
what it is you have for me
when it could be so much more than this
im struggling here
im on my knees
crying out again
cuz i see it once more
won't you help me please
won't you help me please
i just gotta know
help me answer the questions

Reality
so i wonder
in the silence...
in the quiet...
of this night...
its dark closes in
its shadows pass before my eyes
i think on things
that may not have been
i consider
how it is...
the what ifs and maybes
the should have's and could haves
the things that never will be...
but like... the night...
its smothering darkness
these questions don't drown reality
as morning light begins
so fades the questions
as i again see...
the reality

More
There's a reality that shatters
it crashes through that which was
it echoes the thoughts i wish i didn't hear
its reminder is painful to bear
look away turn away
screams cryout again
because this ... this is my life
its crushing realization
its in my face...
before my eyes
when open or close them
its there
is there a way
to change the picture
is there a way
to change what I hear
why do we struggle....
why is it... that way
why am i even thinking like this
shouldn't I just be greatful
everything that I do have
even if it isn't much
it could be worse...
so much worse than now
what's wrong with better
this is foolish...
i shouldn't hope for more
when i have a lot in so many ways
what does it matter
if i feel alone...
what does it matter
if i want something more
it doesn't
i'm sick of my folks
struggling to make it
isn't there more
this is my life
i may not be able to change it
you get what you get
even if you just wish for just more

questions...
its not something I can say aloud
its not something I can say at all
my mouth won't utter them...
yet they crash in my head
they aren't easily ignored
for they naw at me night and day
i try to drown them out...
to think about something else
but its hard to ignore
a bleeding wound
you can't turn away
when its got a hold of u
i just want an answer
is it so hard...
i just want an answer
is there one...

In Christ the solid rock I stand,
Through a life that feels like it’s built on sand
Through the torment, through the pain
And through the storms and in the rain,
I follow the narrow road, and enter into the narrow gate
For my Savior, my God has sealed my fate
Through the Cross, my debts are paid
The blood was shed, the body was slain
The sacrifice of the Lamb so pure,
The battle is won, the curse undone
Separating me from the Father
Bought with a price, secured for eternity
My soul rejoices.
In Christ the solid Rock I stand forevermore
please comment.

numb...
its so much to process
i'm sure its sinkin' in
people keep asking
but i don't have answers
i don't know what to think
i don't know what to say
it feels awkward...
like the norm
the so called normal
is faded away...
i'm not sure i have that anymore
its happened so fast
its happened too fast
i'm not sure what to think
or what to say
i'm watching this happen
i can't do anything
part of me is terrified...
seeing my Mom and Dad
what they're going through
seeing my Mom so scared
so distracted not sure
what to think about it all
what will it be like
when it finally does sink in
when it finally does come through
the shock has worn off
the reality is there...
and its in our face
that this is happening
its not some nightmare
but its there...
and it is happening
to us...

I am sorry, cries-within. I spend time here reading your poetry and will comment from time to time. I definately felt like something must have been going on to inspire your last posting. I just wanted you to know that I was still 'around' and thinking of you.
I spend most of my time on prayer and praise. There are many, many faithful prayer warriors that will lift your father up in prayer if you choose to share it with others over there. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers this morning.

no room...
its too much
no place of my own
to run and hide
from the world
no where for me to be
no where me to escape
to hide away in silence
with thoughts to myself
to feel free to express me
not feel as if i have eyes looking
nothing for me.
no place for me....
i wanna cry but where do i go
i wanna scream but everyone will hear
i want to wake up from this dream
i just want to go home.
used to feel a burden...
now all I'll feel is in the way
no where to go no where to be
no room for me

what happened to normal
what happened to the life I knew
its gone never to return..
in a whirl wind storm of crazy days
not a moment to breathe
not a moment to think it through
what is happening here
can this really be
i want the nightmare to end
i want my life to return to normal
to pause and rewind...
because right now i can't
just can't deal with this...
part of me is numb
part of me is terrified
if i think about it too much

it swirls around me
chaos and turblant storms
its thunder echoes
its light is blinding
putting my hands to my ears
i try to drown out what i hear
i close my eyes not wanting to see
this place... the place
i feel as if there are too many
too many things happening
its all at once its changing too fast
is nothing the same
there are too many words
they bounce in my head
too many thoughts
which i try to ignore
i need a moment
of something
i need one thing
that is in control

Break
world stop spinning...
stop dragging me along
i'm holding on for the ride
when can i get off
waiting to catch my breath
waiting for a moment when I relax
when i just enjoy the now
not have to worry about the next
please stop...
i scream.. just a moment
so i can just get a break..
find some relief

Wow, it became a prayer as i read it in the thread. God knows what it takes to break us... and to mold us into Whom we are to be. If our hearts do not break for others, how can we claim to be Christ-like?
quote:
ORIGINAL: cries-within
Prayer for the broken...
Tears cross my face
read the words
see the broken hearts
then my own heart breaks
look to God...
so many people out there

Lord look... see this
Lord help them
help them they need u
what can I do...
if I can't do anything I'll pray
lord see them...
u know them...
every one of them
there hearts and minds
u created them
u know'm from begining to end
lord some'm don't want u
my heart breaks even more
Lord help them..
there everywhere
people u see and talk to

those secret hurts
thsoe secret struggles
but they need u...
they need u..

its a faded memory
something to never have again
part of me is breaking
because its gone
never going to be
i can't have it again...
what life was...
its gone..
i grew up there...
i lived ate slept
i learned to talk to walk
i learned how to obey
i played...
i spent years there...
the many christmas's
birthdays and so much more
i won't be able to go back there
its like i'm stuck in limbo
everything is so uncertain
nothing is real and touchable
it all changes so fast...
it all changes way too fast
i miss room...
the one i worked so hard to get
i miss having my own space...
not worrying about other people all the time
a time to myself
to do what i wanted...
oh i long for it again...
i miss a bed
that i don't have to drag out
put away each day
oh to have it of my own....
no younger person
who pesters me to do
what he wants to do all the time
i have no place to be...
no place for me..
to breathe..
to just enjoy and think
and to do what i need too.

again i am reminded
again i remember
this..
this that the words
the reality of what is or could be
for us....
heart drops inside
as if weighted with a heavy stone
sighs release
as if it were deflating...
it makes me wonder
is it really is it really
where i should be...
where i should go...
at a time like this
when when i don't know what to say
when it is so hard to consider
when things are so difficult
all i can think is Lord help us
Lord help Him
Help me to know where to go
What to do..

I am in the Valley of Decision…
Where the giants, and opposing forces abound.
What I once thought of as severe testings and trials
Seem but pebbles against these current mounds!
I must decide if Christ is capable…
And by faith extend my powerless hand
If I am to rise to the place of victory…
In this Goliath-laden land.
No one to help…no one to defend…
No one to save…except the Risen One
Whose Spirit woos saying, “Choose death by their hands…
Or crucifixion with the Son.”
I am in the Valley of Struggle…
Where the giant’s voices bellow boisterously within
The seeming comfortless region of this tabernacle,
Born into Adam’s egregious, lumbering sin.
I must strive to persevere within the chamber
That is designated for battling prayer
If I am to learn to be still before Almighty God…
And realize His tender, loving care.
Someone to help…someone to defend…
Someone to save…the dear Holy Ghost!
Only in Him is life…and strength, and great power
Against all enemy hosts.

My God delights in me. I am precious to Him.
Nothing touches my life by chance, or by whim.
The key to the lock of true understanding
Is found only in submission to Calvary’s branding.
My God delights in me. I am precious to Him.
All things counted as loss…produces the win.
His life, cradled in my memory, my every thought,
Leads to all the victories His death has bought.
My God delights in me. I am precious to Him.
His love for me flows, as a river, over the brim
Of the special-ness of my being, created to know
The hidden secrets of Heaven, freely bestowed.
My God delights in me. I am precious to Him.
In Knowledge and Wisdom’s ocean I can swim.
A personalized invitation, open always, and free,
Was given, as an earnest, on the Cross of Calvary.
My God delights in me. I am precious to Him.
And to try to guard the secret is to bow to sin.
His Majesty delights in every woman and man…
Every child also is invited…on the Rock to stand.
My God delights in you. You are precious to Him
And though your problems be daunting and grim,
He alone can fill the void. He alone can re-create
The piles of rubble inherited from Adam’s plate.
