Truth I Need To See
Make the fake debateand you will miss the truth.What is inside a mindis what I express to you. I haven’t felt the touchof a warm hand on my shoulder.Just those who don’t knowmy pain brings anguish that’s older. Traverse the paths as I walkthose miles that pile on me.It is a burden upon my heartthat Continue reading

Yet the sun shinesthrough billows of clouds,speaking answers that sayyou are not alone, my son, the Lord Continue reading

Caring too much forthose who abandon meas they pursue what they will,fight I do a battle endlessly. I can’t Continue reading
