Hearing ears that fail to listen, Open eyes that do not see. Yet we wonder why, we cannot be set free. Crying out "we want more", full of self-entitlement. Never truly satisfied, living with much covetousness. Looking 'round the world, many living poor. Not a bite to eat, sleeping on the floor. Shoes upon our … Continue reading Open the Heart

Depending on the song, and if the distance far. To stop and truly listen, a message may be found. As some are deep with meaning, the … Continue reading Listen to the Music
The Request

The wicked words see uses, Continue spewing out. She knows the action's wrong, as others let her know. They quickly walk away, seeing her approach. Difficulties in her past, … Continue reading Lost and Found
