    Everyone has their own religion, 

    Something they can look upon.

    It could be a motto,

    A quote or a book.

    There are widely known religions,

    With belief filled books.

    But even then,
  • A Spark of Worth

    Little orange mushrooms sprout,

    The ruffle running along a crack

    In the dark wooded log.

    The rain is constant,

    Drizzling across the lake,

    Fogging the air,

    Settling gloom into everything.
  • Organized Yet Abstract

    A streak of gray rushes to the sky,

    Soaring and arching,

    Up, up, up.

    A thin line of smoke is left behind,

  • An Arrow Drawn Back

    My fingers pull back,
    The arrow drawn with it,
    The tip aimed down at the target.
    My breathing steadies,
    My thoughts slow,

  • Stand Up With Me

    “When you’re living on your knees you rise up.”

    Some people are on their knees because

    They’re bowing down to him.

    Some people are on their knees because

    They’re hopeless.

     

    Here, take my hand.

  • life at its best

    I wake and hear the pounding of rain on the roof

    A type of giddiness fills my stomach,

    My lips turn into a smile,

    And I snuggle deeper under my comforter
