I Believed

I BELIEVED 

I believed 
In the power of a lonely smile 
I believed 
That just this one kiss 
Could light the skies 
If we really wished (this moment would never die) 
Tomorrow became today 
Then you wouldn’t know me 
Cause there’s a child inside of me
Broken boy you had yet to see 
All the love he’s never known 
Is the wind that kept him froze 
But he could have burned for you 
If you wanted him too 
But he could have burned so bright for you
Did you want him too??? 
Chorus: We said Let us burn the cold dark skies
Let us melt these graffiti walls tonite 
And the door that we’ve kept closed 
Blocks the hallway that leads us home
And all the love we’ve never known
Was waiting just down the road
Was waiting just down the road 
But that Road didn’t lead us Home 
-You relived 
The night your stars were stole
You relived 
The times your tender hands were burned 
By a kiss that lit the skies 
And fluttered down into the sea 
Did you really think (this night it would be right)
Tomorrow would never become today
Then you wouldn’t have held onto me 
Cause there’s a place beside of me 
That you would never like to stay 
All the memories you came to see unfroze 
Didn’t let you stand too close 
But could you have rested safe yes, you
If you really wanted too 
But you could have been blessed in this place yes, you
If you had wanted too 
Oh did you ever want him too?? 
Chorus: We said Let us burn the cold dark skies
Let us melt these graffiti walls tonite 
And the door that we’ve kept closed 
Blocks the hallway that leads us home
And all the love we’ve never known
Was waiting just down the road
Was waiting just down the road 
But that Road didn’t lead us Home 

Prayer for Those Who Believed 

Creator of Second Chances

We come to you with Fractured Faith
Fractured Faith in ourselves, in our hopes, our thoughts, our loves, and even in You
We come to you with the Best Things Broken
Broken by Everything we thought would be our Salvation and Solid Ground
We aren’t sure if you will come Through
We are sure however that there is no other Glue
Cause everyone else failed to bring their cape to save the Day
We believed and it Broke Us
We had Hope but it Choked the Life from Us
We got nothing left but Desperation
We got nothing left but our Hearts on the Floor
We are nothing but the Children waiting on a Father just like You
We are wishing we didn’t live like Orphans, but to take us Home or not is Up To You.

“In that day you will say: “I will give You thanks, ADONAI, for though You were angry with me, Your anger is turned away, and You comfort me.
Isaiah 12:1

Winter by Tania Bento

Winter The trees lay bare,  I try not to stare But their nakedness tells a story. They once gave shade,  but now they...
