Too Soon...

So many things done,

in just two weeks,

so many accomplishments,

so many realizations,

yet too little time.

Yeah, Australia's fun,

but I don't want to go back,

I want to stay,

I don't want to go back...

I don't want to go back...

I don't want to go back...
I don't want to go back...

I don't want to be lonely again,

I don't want to be alone again.

Sunset

Too many sunsets have we seen
Too many mornings far between
Too soon the clouds have passed us by
Too soon the sun died in our eyes

Broken wings that cannot mend
Are we afraid to dream again?
Our days are full of passing faces
Our hearts are bruised in many places

Yet all shall be well
All shall be well
You’ll see all shall soon be well
All things, all men, all the world
Shall be well.

I Hope To See You Again

I won't be seeing you in a while,
o home who witnessed my cries,
o home who took care of me when i cried.

o home who became my sanctuary
o home who became the symbol of success,

o home that i love,

goodbye for a while,

i'll be back to rest with you again.

Candle

Don't you blow my little lights out,
I'm gonna let it shine,
let it shine!
All the time, let it shine!

Romantic Dinner

A romantic dinner?
It's all in the paper!

Yet why do I wait?
I couldn't really see what's beyond,
and that's my problem.

After all,
My dreams and aspirations
are just in the paper!

When You Were My Home

There was a time,
when I played,
you watched over me.

There was a time,
when I cried,
you comforted me.

There was a time,
when I was hurting,
you soothed my pain.

There was a time,
when people kept hurting me,
you protected me.

There was a time
when injustice happened to me,
you came to my side and defended me.

There was a time
when everything was dark for me,
you became my light.

But when those I called brothers betrayed me,
you too did the same...

Everything is different now.
Everything is.

Despondent

Dark clouds...
Sad...
Depressing...

But the sun will shine,
Nothing will stop it...

Nothing will.

Lent

Alone, you try to find Him,
yet you can't.

How you long to hear His voice.
How you long for Him to heal your wooden wounded heart.

While the world rushes through its days,
There's a secret presence shining from every face,
So why don't you slow down,
Take the time to look around
You might just find God's special hiding place.

I did. =) Happy Easter!

Billboard

Like a mosaic picture,
Sometimes,
It takes time,
To see the bigger picture,
To understand the hidden meaning,
To find the real value,
To feel the aesthetic power

of what is here and there,

of what is visible and invisible,

of what remains to be seen,

of what it is to be.

but can anyone really comprehend it?

Complete It!

I tried,
Hoping I could,
Knowing I couldn't
Trusting I should,
Wishing I would,

But here it is,

Still incomplete.

Smile

It heals the heart,
It soothes the soul,
It makes life worth while,
It costs the leasts,
Yet does the most.
It's a smile,
A smile of an innocent child.

Laugh Like Children

Deep beneath that smile,
There lies a fertile midden
Of hopes and dreams and thoughts and signs
Both oft expressed and hidden.

An adventurer in meaning,
A detective fighting time;
A shard of Earth's bright promise,
A glint, a gleam, a chime.

May I?

Protect me,
Protect me from danger,
Stop me from running,
Stop me from playing,
Protect me,
Stop me,

but

Don't take away the sun,
Don't take away my fun,
Allow me to laugh
Allow me to be tough,
Allow me,

now,

How can you do both?

A Pencil,
Simple as it may seem,
can fulfill but everyone's dream.
