Eclipse Series: Pt. 5 Divided Desires


I hate when you show up like that
Out of the blue, you step out of the black
One moment I'm fast asleep and life is fine 
The next you're there and almost mine
My heart starts racing and my head begins to spin 
We’re embracing and the spiral never ends 
Will I ever be free from you? 
Free from my thoughts and dreams of you?
Free from the fight to keep you at bay
Free from an unspoken desire for a never-coming day 

Every time I think I've let go
Every time I find a way to say no 
You find a way in 
Tormenting me again and again 
Why won't you let me be free 
Why won't you stop haunting me
Each dream reveals me more 
Tormented mind and soul torn
Divided desires 
Resistance and raging fires 
Opposition 
Skewed vision 
Split in two 
By the longing I have for you 
Your arms around me are oh so right 
Wrapping me up in the dark of the night 
Moon cast your smile on me 
Shadow me in your dusky sea

Why Can’t He Breathe?! A Mother’s Cry

Knees gripped, Teeth gritted Huff, Huff, Puff, Puff Bear down with all your strength Push! Push! Push! Forcing life into existence Break and breathe Cry and heave Grip and grit Huff and puff Push! Push! Push! Ring of fire burning me alive Flesh tearing as your blood mingles with mine Grip and grit Huff and puff Bear down baby C’mon…push lady!

To hear you...catch yours too… And I wait… To hear you… Silence...resounds… As I await...your voice… The lack of sound… Uneasy noise… What’s wrong? Why can’t I hear him? Where is his birth song? Is he breathing? Why can’t he breathe?! The longest seconds of my life Were as I waited for you to breathe Begging God to blow His breath Upon your need Then up you were held In the spotlight of glory! Covered in our flesh You shouted your victory cry Declaring yo...

Glorious Sunset in the East

As I watch the sun rise brilliantly in the eastern sky I can't help but wonder if today is the day my heart will cry  My gaze belongs to the east  Where she lies  Fighting to breathe Yet pleading for release  Will her sunset be as glorious as this sunrise? As bright and blinding before my eyes? As she gives up the last of her earthly ties  And on the wings of the angels she flies  Golden light that breaks free across the horizon  God's Son light reminding me she is one of the chosen  As she passes from life to life there is no more precious a moment  At this sunrise time has stood frozen  Spirit and body now at ease  As they partake of the celebration feast  My Meme and Jesus Oh, how my heart's breaking...over that glorious sunset in the east
