  • Why? (1)

    Why oh why do you continue to wander?
    Blind and empty of truth...

  • I, like a filthy pig,
    Wallow in the mud of my sin...

  • May you be, as the David of old,
    Strong of heart and soul...

  • I viewed with cool, bored apathy,
    As two men began to speak...

  • My heart quakes with a strong knowing,
    The air around in quickening...

  • O Lord, You are the bright hope that shimmers in...
    You have calmed my restless heart into a quiet...

  • I'm sorry my friend, I can take this no longer,
    I wish I could stay, I wish I could be stronger...

  • Cold (1)

    I sit in the theater listening,
    to the enjoyment of the crowd...

  • Yes, I know how it is to sob in the night,
    To curl up and shiver, too weary to fight...
