140 Characters

You know what I hate?
140 characters
You know what I love?
1000 words
Words make sentences
They can paint pictures
That can mean so much more
They can be just be scribbles
undecipherable marks to some
Can you read this?
I want to know
I want to show
You all you are
And all you mean to me
You’re beautiful, inside and out
A star shining, with no doubt
I love looking into your eyes and see them glow
I love to see you radiate, you need to know
I can’t tell you this when I smash on tiny keys
When I slide my fingers across fancy screens
It’s even hard when I scratch my pen
Compose an email, press send
What I want to say
I want to stand in front of you
I want to stand in your glow
In fact, 1000 words is not enough
I don’t want a limit
I don’t want some time
I want to stand here
Just hear you talk
Ask you questions, hear your mind
I can do this as long as you can
I can stand here
Watch the world melt away
Stars supernovae
I want to keep standing here
Standing in your glow
Finding out all about you
All there is to know

Disclaimer: This is not about anyone, this is not about you, just my general romantic view

Everything

God is not up
God is not down
God is not West
God is not East
God is not on your left
Not on your right
God is all around
In fact
God is not God, that is way too small
God is everything, all
God is not a name it’s a word
To think God is like you is simply absurd
I’ve stopped saying God
I’ve started saying everything
When I say everything, I mean all
Air, earth, ocean
Earth, sun, planets constant motion
If you want everything to show you what to do
Stop waiting for a voice
Just look inside you
Everything is everything
That means all things
Especially you, especially me
Most importantly us
We need all three

Commitment

Will you commit?
Will you stay and fight?
Will you never give up?
Always seek the light?

Should we start with what's wrong?
Let's not, we've been going over that for way too long
Let's just commit to make each day better than today
Each day a bit lighter, kinder
More beautiful and brighter

I've decided I'm going to commit
Started last night
That means: today begins the fight
The battle within
The challenge we all face:
Darkness or light

I commit to me
I commit to us
I commit to we
I commit to strength
I commit to mind
I commit to soul

This commitment will take a toll
That's why you should join
We will help each other get through
Especially when the times are tough
The road gets rocky, and more than rough
Just relax I'll be here
You can just stop
Catch your breath
I'll bring you water, help relieve your stress
When you're ready we'll keep going
I know you'll do the same
When I reach that point
Out of gas and full of pain

Let's commit
Because this year is not just a new year
It's a new age, a new world
A beginning for things to start to change
