Not Flying.

It’s almost the end of the year, and right now all you’ve seen is my poetry in the low 200s. Let’s change that, since New Year’s fast approaches. I’ll be trying to post every day until December 31st. Hope you like it 🙂 Poem 228 of 365 – I hate not being in controlI hate […]

Lonely Fool

Poem 223 of 365 – I feel like something sad tonightWould lighten up the mood.Music feigning loneliness gives meSomeone to feel close to.I shouldn’t be left to my own devicesHow long will it take for you to realize this?But don’t worry yourself too muchTonight’s all right alone.I’ll listen to my sad piano,And raindrops filling in […]

Rotting flowers

I wrote this one a day after my birthday. Time passes by so quickly. Did I even do anything with it? Poem 222 of 365 – The smell of rotting flowers Lingers in the airA warning of another yearThat passed by unawareAnother birthday came and wentI feel the time was poorly spentAnd I must replay the […]

Love Myself.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not advocating for aestheticism. There’s just a difference between self-care and idolatry. This poem’s about idolatry. Also, it helps when you know I’m a calvinist 😂 Poem 221 of 365 – I’ll just admit itIt wasn’t self careIt wasn’t self loveIt wasn’t helpful at allIt’s not cutesy when I fallInto […]

Don’t touch the glass

Is this any good? I personally don’t think so. But. . . for some reason the concept is close to my heart. Let me know what you think. Poem 218 of 365 – Is what I remember hearing you sayI stared at the wall, feeling dismayEven though the rule won’t last. First hour I satAnd […]

Rotted Mind.

This one is a little less “Polished” than what I’d normally post. Sometimes I just feel like I’ll never be more than a filthy dog. That I’ll drown in the problems I create for myself. This is about that. Don’t forget the last two lines ❤ Poem 215 of 365 – One more step was […]

Tumour Tree

This week I have something special. My friend Nathan did an illustration for this poem!! How cool is that?! Scroll down to see his amazing artwork ❤ Poem 216 of 365 – Why does the tree keep breathing?Creating oxygen I keep saying I don’t need?The roots are burrowing into my brainGiving me air but no […]

Hear Me III

It’s so easy to give into pride and falsehoods. It’s easier to fear than to hope. But take courage, dear heart. Lamentations 3:55-57. Poem 210 of 365 – The world has finally ceased to spinAnd I am left with unrest withinFlashing colours, vibrant soundsWaves of commotion, warning to drownMe.All this time I never realizedThe outbursts and […]

Hear Me

Sometimes I forget that the whole point of grace is that I don’t get what I deserve. I forget that sanctification is a process, just like everything else in life. Do you? Poem 208 of 365 – Apologies, not doxologiesAre issued from my mouthBecause fondly and wronglyIs the way I view sin now. Is there […]

Human Work

I’m experimenting with a new style. What do you think? Poem 205 of 365 – Work doesn’t help self.Humans in brokenness, in result do works.Results and fruitlessness make humans weak.Weak self makes indulgence easy. We cannot create the answers we need. Easy indulgence makes self weak.Weak humans make fruitlessness and results.Works do result in brokenness […]
