Anyways...........
Both of these poems were for my Creative Writing class at school. The quoted lines are lines from two different songs. The first poem has lines from 'Imaginary' by Evanescence and the second poem has lines from 'Just Love Her Like Jesus' which is possibly by either Jeremy Camp or Casting Crowns. I can't remember.... sweatdrop
"In my feild of paper flowers"
Is a world where I can get away.
It's never perfect or picturesque,
But it helps me in many a way.
"I lie inside myself for hours"
Thinking, trying to get away from reality.
It's not that I can't deal with it,
I'd just rather not try for it.
My world is different everytime I go.
Sometimes there's frighting,
Sometimes there's peace,
But it always helps me in some odd way.
My feild helps me cope.
It keeps me calm
And helps me understand
This crazy world we live in.
How it helps me understand,
I really do not comprehend
But after coming from revealing reveries,
My hazy thoughts seem clear as day.
"In my feild of paper flowers,
With candy clouds of lullabys,
I lie inside myself for hours,
And watch my purple skys fade to grey."
"Just love them like Jesus."
Is this such a hard command?
Children of God are told to love,
Instead we keep our own bottled hate.
"You don't need the answers
To all of life's questions."
We don't need to be perfect
To Show God's love.
People are dying,
People are hurting,
Why should we add to it?
"Just love them like Jesus."
There will always be pain,
Always be sadness,
But God loves us,
He cares for us,
He created us,
So why can't we share
And "just love them like Jesus."
