Poetry in Motion

I'm knee deep in graduate studies over the next few weeks and finding it difficult to post creative items to my blog in addition to keeping up with the homework load. Having said that, I thought it might be fun to share some of the poetry stuff that I've written over the years. Most of these sonnets are lyrics to songs that have been inspired by friends, family and experiences in different seasons of my life. I hope they inspire you to find hope, rest and life in the middle of your journey!!

To Love You

You never know if you can see something that isn’t there
But so many choose to be unaware
Nothing compares to what you’ve done
Not even all I have
Something inside me cries out to you

Here lies my pride
I would give anything to know you
Here lies my life
I would do anything to love you

Gone are the ways that used to be holding me back again
You came and pardoned me from what I am
Gone are the days I used to feel stuck here inside my head
I choose to follow you with all I am

Here lies my pride
I would give anything to know you
Here lies my life
I would give anything to love you
