This is a song I just finished writing and am working on the chords for.
Do you see my haunting eyes
Looking at you through your mirror
Do you see this baited breath
Waiting to gasp for fresh air
Suffocating within your grasp
You stare into the glass
But all you see is emptiness
Filling me with hatred
For you're so blind to the truth
That I cannot escape
Too self-important
You've never found what lay
Before you all this time
[Chorus]
All Love's beauty sang (to you
Every single day (to you)
Voices screamed in the
Silence of the night
Whispered my vows so sacred
Trying to fight a way
Into your cold-blooded heart
That killed my faith
Do you see my tortured face
Beckoning to you through your window
Do you see this wretched hope
Decieved by all the lies you spoke
You gaze into the glass
But all you see is foolishness
Fueling my soul's burden
For you're so self-consumed
That I cannot be myself
Too ignorant to know
That you'll never find
This anywhere else
[Chorus]
All Love's beauty sang
Every single day
Her voices screamed
In the silence of the night
Whispering my vows so sacred
Trying to fight a way
Into your cold-blooded heart
That killed my faith forever
So this is the real you
Always taking the very best of me
Release your smothering hold
For just once let me breathe

I Still See You
A new song!! :)
When I wake up in the morning
And gaze into the sunrise
Suddenly I find myself
Looking deep in your eyes
I realize then that you are gone
From my sight
I wish with all of my might
That I could fight
[Chorus]
This strange new feeling
That I can't hold on to
Because I still see you
Talking to me in the day
Ohh, I still see you
Blowing a kiss my way
And I still see you
Flashing that gorgeous smile
I still see you
After awhile, crocodile
When I turn off my light
And lay my head down once more
Suddely I find myself
Hearing your whispers louder than before
I realize then that you are gone
From my embrace
I wish that I could just erase
[Chorus]
Ohh, and I still see you in my heart
We'll never be too far apart
To remember everything that's dear
Because you're right here
I still see you in my heart
When I wake up in the morning
And gaze into the sunrise
Suddenly I find myself
Looking deep in your eyes
I realize then that you are gone
From my sight
I wish with all of my might
That I could fight
[Chorus]
This strange new feeling
That I can't hold on to
Because I still see you
Talking to me in the day
Ohh, I still see you
Blowing a kiss my way
And I still see you
Flashing that gorgeous smile
I still see you
After awhile, crocodile
When I turn off my light
And lay my head down once more
Suddely I find myself
Hearing your whispers louder than before
I realize then that you are gone
From my embrace
I wish that I could just erase
[Chorus]
Ohh, and I still see you in my heart
We'll never be too far apart
To remember everything that's dear
Because you're right here
I still see you in my heart

Contemplation on God's Supremacy - Part 1
I wrote this entry on September 11, 2008 - the day after my 17th birthday. It is not complete, however; I thought it was worth posting, and so here it is for you to read and to think upon the truths therein.
The more I contemplate the total supremacy and glory of the One who created this world, loves each and every one of His people He has made, and knows everything that goes on, the more I realize His unfathomable, indescribable awesomeness that I cannot even begin to comprehend beyond but a mere grasp of understanding.
The human mind cannot possibly wholey comprehend the vast qualities and characteristics of God, or we are but mere man, and if man were to know everything about His Creator, the purpose of a God would be defeated, hence man himself would liken himself to rule the universe as his own god.
Thus the belief of Christianity would be destroyed, for in essence to be a Christian is to be a "little Christ" - taking on Christ's character and conforming to His image - and Christ is God.
However, our faith is firm on the foundation that God was and always is supreme, immutable, holy, infinite, and ours forever.
God is omniscient. Even seven years ago when Islami terrorists hijacked American planes and crashed them into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, when they aimed for the White House, when thousands of people that were just going about their usual business on a normal day, when suddenly tragedy struck them and ended or changed their lives forever and impacted the lives of their families and friends...God knew what He was doing.
He had a plan and a purpose for it all, which is why He allowed it to happen. 9/11/01 has brought all Americans closer as a nation, united to fight for our lives against those terrorists, to fight for the freedom and lives of innocent people in Afghanistan, Iraq, and throughout the Middle East.
His plan continues to unfold. We will trust Him.

Facing the Truth
I wrote this last year on an afternoon when we had a free period due to the rain.
I can see you changing
Into something I don't know
I can feel my tears, they're falling
I have to let you know
That I never wanted this to happen
I don't know why I ever said I do
This place is so unfamiliar
Where have you taken me
A storm brews here
A wind blows near
And I don't know What you are anymore
Who have you become
I used to love you
Trusted you with my heart
One I had once loved
Is now breaking it apart
What is this Monster I see
Why has my love gone away from me
My world is shattered now
Broken in a million pieces
No one can build it up again
Oh, and I've learned to
Never have faith in what was past
I won't ever make the same mistake
Maybe love was meant to last
But I'll always remember what I lost
I thought You were worth it all
But I didn't know what it would cost
My soul is slowly drowning
Don't rescue me, leave me alone
Maybe things will be right sometime
For now I will stand here by myself
And watch the rain fall down, fall down
Watch the rain fall down.
I can see you changing
Into something I don't know
I can feel my tears, they're falling
I have to let you know
That I never wanted this to happen
I don't know why I ever said I do

Where have you taken me
A storm brews here
A wind blows near
And I don't know What you are anymore
Who have you become
I used to love you
Trusted you with my heart
One I had once loved
Is now breaking it apart
What is this Monster I see
Why has my love gone away from me
My world is shattered now
Broken in a million pieces
No one can build it up again
Oh, and I've learned to

Don't rescue me, leave me alone
Maybe things will be right sometime
For now I will stand here by myself
And watch the rain fall down, fall down
Watch the rain fall down.
