here we go again...

For those of you who know me, I enjoy poetry, and I like to pretend that I can write it, but I rarely come out with a good one. But I wrote one for the first time in too long, so I thought I'd share it with you! =)


Shattered dreams lie in broken disarray,
the vibrance of love has been dulled to a weary grey.
She is looking for someone to wipe away her tears,
But there is nothing but silence, it has been for years.
Her crown is gone; she has been robbed
Of her innocence and worth, while she sat there and sobbed.
She was deceived by beautiful lies,
Who was deceptive and deaf to her wrenching cries.
She simply sits there, day after day,
With nothing to do, and nothing to say.
She is one of many nameless faces,
Whose hearts were stolen in secret places.
She is sick of dreaming tired dreams,
And wants to hear more than a silent scream.
She is looking for something, something new,
Maybe, just maybe, she is looking for you.
She is waiting for something, something new,
Maybe just maybe, she is waiting for you.

So lately, I've been digging the Saint Francis quotes. Weird I know, but I wanted to share with ya'll some of mi favorito!

"Preach the Gospel at all times, and when neccessary, use words."

“Start by doing what's necessary; then do what's possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible.”

“Lord, make me an instrument of your peace; where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; and where there is sadness, joy.”
