The Power of Prayer

Paddling aimlessly looking for shore.

There has go to be something more. 

Treacherous waters surround me,

all my lies succeeding to drown me.

The waves crash over my head.

As I spend the time wishing I was in bed.

Waiting and wanting more,

you are who i look toward.

When I finally push my pride aside,

I fall to my knees and lift my arms up high.

I pray that you save me from this mess I'm in,

and you say " Larissa, Jesus already paid the price of your sin."

Once you remind of that day at Calvary my fears vanish,

and my lies cease to drown me.

Waiting On You

I'm not waiting on you because I want to,

I'm waiting because I want you.

I don't care because I want to,

I care because I care for you.

 We are pushed in the direction of our hearts, 

and each time we end up where we start. 

Surprises, surprises, you no longer surprise me,

I guess you put me right where I am supposed to be.

 And I am Desperate to find more, 

I only wish you weren't  what I have been waiting for.

My God

A darkness subsides into light.

A fractured heart is recoiled.

A chronicle beautified.

All evil dwindled and renounced,

because 

My God Illuminates.

Defenseless

I let go of who I used to be,

to reach for who I desire to become.

Your heart proud to discover the insecurities that lie within my soul.

Your eyes now pierce into and through me,

My raw soul now intertwined with your.

And I now stand defenseless against your love.

Good-bye

I closed the curtain to say good-bye.

I swore it was the last time you would ever make me cry.

But there I stood with only a few things to ask,

Can she love you like me?

Do you think she will last?

but still,

I put up with your nonsense.

I put up with your games.

I put up with your lying.

I put up with your fame.

 And here you stand,

wanting me back.

But I'm afraid it doesn't happen just like that.

Mesmerized

I never saw it coming,

then i looked into your eyes.

All of the sudden

you stole my heart,

and had my mind mesmerized.

Best Friend

My secrets you have kept.

My body you have held.

My soul you have touched.

My heart you have stole,

and

My best friend you have become.

Imperfection

Intoxicated me with a kiss of passion.

Exposed a painful part of me with nostalgic perfection.

Awaken my dreams with ecstatic reality.

Penetrated into my thoughts with the hideous truth.

Destroyed my fears, by the fearless touch of your hand,

but deceived the world of your imperfect perfection.

Sweet Bliss

Set me a sail,

sail me a wind.

Strong enough to hold,

and weak enough to bend.

Play me a song,

a song of sweet bliss.

Then hold me tight and create the most intoxicating kiss.

Unwanted Love

The break of my heart,

the hurt in your words,

Fly as far as flightless birds.

I held our memories tighter than precious gold,

only for our friendship to be stole.

Our unwanted  love left to die,

and there is nothing remaining of you and I.

Kept with me

My heart screams for you,

only silence takes it's cue.

The  words I have to say,

I am unable to convey.

Several miles apart,

yet still with me in my heart.

Kept in my prayers.

Shared in my dreams.

And sowed into me

like thread between the seams.
