Time

The darkness of the past creeps up on me again
remembering when I had no friend

The past I suppose is easiest to forget
but it is the one I most regret

The present is one that gives no reprieve
it's the one hardest to leave

The future, well, hope lives there
That is where everyone cares

Time is something like a knife
Sharp and pointed stabbing at life

Love has grown cold and still
just wanting to live takes a lot of will

When Christ returns I'll rejoice
for from now on God's will is my choice

Time will end, so it is written
but until then, time is a serpent and I've been bitten

A few weeks ago, bad things were happening to me. Like a snowball they just kept getting bigger. I tried to end my life. I took a bottle of pills, enough to kill a horse, but I woke up the next morning with a thought in my head. It's God's life, if He wants to take it, you'll die! No, this wasn't a voice booming out of heaven just a thought. Later that day I was going through all my old tapes and found Purple Rain, listened to When Doves Cry and felt 13 again. Just wanted to share, I have no one to talk to and since I am a Prince fan, thought maybe you guys would get what I am saying.

Love you brother, you never know when you'll need loved!

I like what u wrote ty 4 sharing

many never realize what they truly had until they lost it
life is short and none of us is gauranteed to be here tomorrow
let alone tonight

so many foolish one's lacking the knowledge of a true life
while they have it
loving one is beautiful when they return the love from the heart, mind, and soul
many don't know how to truly love, respect, or grow with a true love

i count my true friends on one hand the one's who never lie to me, mistreat me,
or wrongfully hurt me
Our creator and Jesus
they are my true best friends

we all can make changes in our lifes if we choose to heal, grow, and learn and
care from the heart
it's beautiful when you love and it's really something u grow with,
care with, and share with from the heart
but it doesn't feel good when it's not returned by a human you truly love

when we go thru hard times many times we are being tested, and once we make it
we can see the lessons learned from the pain and experiences we go thru
we also many times gain strength and knowledge which prepares us for the next
testings

When Doves Cry is when he finally got me 2 stop running from him
you see it's a lot of my life in that song as well as many of his songs

i have many who love me, respect me, and grow with me and i love many
but i am in love with only one

and he doesn't truly understand it cause he has never ever had a love like mine
most i can do is pray for him and live my life the best i can

ask our creator to hold you, guide you, and love you and anything else you
truly need or want and he will give you what you need in his timing and you
will appreciate it more when you realize what you have

please never again try to take your life
your here for a reason and when your done then you will go

ty for sharing this with us bless you from the
peace

Colyr~This is a beautiful poem. I am sorry that U are going through this lonely time.
It's funny how lonliness can become a snowball that we choose 2 send down a Hill. I do know that isolation is cold. No one there 2 hold U, open your heart 2, or just pass away the hours in silence knowing that someone cares that U are there next 2 them.
This alienation can feel like U are trapped inside of a box, and it is at this time that we can realize that our mind is going to talk travel within it's own thoughts of feeling small and held away from the world.
It is at this time that God is asking U 2 Commune with Him because He wants 2 be number one in your heart. The moments that U must pass through are only a drop of time in the grand scheme of eternity. God is proud of his children, and they are born with strenght to get through feelings of alienation. When the time for loving a person is there, U will be able to look back and know that U overcame your disconnection with the world with a friend that U couldn't see yet lives in your heart along side of U.
Some days will be better than others. Little by little, step by step, U have an opportunity to throw your anchor into heaven, and for the friend that has always been with U...Climb. As the seconds pass, U are farther away from rehearsing the same old lines that make U feel alone. The place to begin when U don't feel peace in your heart, is 2 choose not to feel alone. There is a day in tomorrow and your life is a book...Wait 4 a happy ending.

Thank you for the kind words. Both of you have a way with words that touch the spirit deep inside. God uses us, sometimes we don't realize it. Elijah heard Him as a Still, Small, Voice. I have heard Him in your words, and I thank you both from the bottom of my heart.

God spoke and the Word was heard, the Word came but they did not hear, now He speaks through each of us, and I am listening.

Thank you

Peace is with the man
Who can put perspective in a frame
Adjusting the target just so.....even if he had no aim

Don't give up without a fight
The daylight u seek.....may occure at midnight

Peace is with the man
Who can smile when he is down
Perspective is everywhere.....just look around

hang in there Colyr. keep the faith
