Gray

My dreams as of late have faded into gray
Leaving me only to love you at the end of the day
If my prayers are selfish they are never answered
But for you I sacrifice and my prayers are heard

So much has been granted and I have to reveal
That those against me have chosen to steal
Though forgiveness comes their way by me
My Father will intercede for me you will soon see

So I worry not and I walk His way
I wonder, my love, if you have anything to say
So I revealed all my love and spilled onto the page
Every emotion set free from its cage

I yearn for your touch and I speak not in a riddle
I am just the one stuck in the middle
In the middle of loving you as much as I can do
With every moment I burn my heart for you

Unarmed

Been standing in the fire and I remain unharmed
The Lord watches over me and I am unarmed
I announce Him as my King for I can see
The future beyond this standing tree

My branches holding birds and flowers to feed bees
Branching out into the unknown full of decrees
Positing knowledge of divinity for their own sake
Admittedly renouncing anyone that is fake

The journey has brought me close to Him
We are forever changed and the future still grim
Gonna take an army you cannot see or know of
Hidden behind a veil you cannot pierce without love

Never gonna be shots in the dark with me
His undying faithful power through this gift you see
Is untapped, alone, and totally free
Alone with my suffering in total agony

Fame

It just takes a moment of rejection
To set yourself against an unction
That would give you powers beyond belief
Powers that to many would be a relief

But ignorance persists and invades your mind
Filling you with false justifications you will find
Dragging you downward into the dirt
Then you will lose your shirt

The powers that God grants are by faith and love
Given to those who ask it of Him through the Dove
What God gives He does not take away
I am living proof of it and I am here to stay

But people are riddled with the tendency to hate
Out of jealousy and what I do makes them irate
I love them despite their glaring eyes
Knocking me down into the mud despite my cries

They kick me while I am down in His name
And they hope it will be the ultimate fame
That propagates their own like some game
But the Lord sees right through the abusive gain

Winter Twilight

Twilight in the winter
On a cold and clear night
Bands of black, blue, and orange
Bound together across the sky
Wisps of sunlight glowing right through
With the darkest night behind me
I think with you I am not quite through

My body churns out pain and suffering galore
With Christ, there is always something more
Nobody knows who it is I suffer for
I yearn to be remembered by God and more
Boldness without faith and love is as bullheaded as a door
But to you my love, I beseech you and I implore
Enter into my heart while we dance on the floor
