A Lament for Charlie

you know me you have loved me recently but now you won’t even touch me – It is fruitless for me to assume this is about me because, lately, it’s always about you – yet I’ve been through enough to know this isn’t personal not even close – I am all too familiar with your […]

Remy the king of positivity of no bad days of class and of compliments Cheers to you for a life worthy of the title for your striking good looks and personality for having the hardest drip known to man You were always one to quote songs well I believe Houndmouth hit the nail on the […]

A Lord of Deep Feeling

I want to be loved, adored, and committed to. I want to be someone’s first choice and to be wholly sought after even through all the noise. In a recent interaction with the Lord Jesus, I was freshly reminded that He wants these things too. Part of being made in the image of God means […]

Hymn: Sow and Reap

Sow and reap, O sow and reap I give myself for you to keep Come and feast, O come and feast Enjoy all of what You’ve done in me My heart is now a garden Full of fruit and spices Being brought to fruition Thou didst plant Your seed within Breathe me in, O breathe […]

Happy Birthday, Momma.

How heavy the sorrow is Upon my chest When I think of you How deep the ache When I call you to mind Missing you Is like grasping for air In my burning lungs And coming up empty The memory Of your laugh, Of your smile, Of the way you used to look at me […]
