I don't really like saying amen at the end of prayers.
It feels too blunt and short.
Who am I to just cut off a conversation with God?
I try to say I love you right before I say amen, too.
Though even the combination of the two still feels too sudden.
It's like a phone call... Where you do all the talking, and then just say bye and hang up. You don't wait for a response, you just hang up when you're done confessing your sins, or saying how great our God is. I say I want to hear Him, and then I hang up on Him.

I haven't heard God in so long, because I haven't been listening.
I cut Him off, with everything I think I need to say.

It's been a long time, since I've just sat down and talked with God.
Maybe that's why not much is going very well right now. But to be honest, I already feel better.
Like He lifted a huge burden off my shoulders.
A burden I shouldn't have been trying to carry alone anyway.

"You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised." Hebrews 10:36
And I thought God wasn't speaking to me anymore ;)

It's gonna be okay, you know? God is proud when I do the right thing, and get through all the crap thrown at me.
I feel much better.

I just wanna break you down so badly.

Reminiscing of yesterdays and yester years, yester months, and yester fears.

And he knows just what to say to make me feel priceless. But you're the one who always makes me feel worthless.

And we'll pretend
we don't feel alone
when feeling alone
is the closet we've ever felt
to home.

I fell in love with chance and fate. How they aligned so perfectly at exactly the right moment to have everything fall into place.

I try not to listen long enough to hear you list your demons

There are only so many times we can say I love you before it rolls off your tongue like saying hello when greeting someone.

And something in her broke.

I never wanted to tell you this before
But you're everything I wanted and more
You're everything I'd hoped you'd be
without all the love and memories.

Hold my hand and take me out of here.

I don't want to be left here when it's all said and done,
Wondering what could have been.

Do you ever feel so far alone, that you don't even notice you are?

This song just makes me feel happy

I opened the door to find you standing there.
You'd been there for a while, fighting with yourself.
Wanting to knock on the door.
Not wanting consequences.
You came to reveal your heart to me.
Wanting to share the secrets you could never speak.
We stared at each other, searching for the words to say.
No one found them, as you turned and walked away.

Abby Desharnais is an inspiration :D
I blog stalk her...
She makes me think.
So now, I wonder, if I was surrounded by people I had never met before, from a completely different state, would I be the same old person?
I'd like to say yes, but I think I'd be a lot more open with people, than I am here.
