So one of the most uncomfortable things that can happen to a person is to make eye contact with a stranger in a public bathroom mirror.

Hymns

"Did we in our own strength confide,
Our striving would be losing."

"Be Thou my vision, O Lord of my heart,
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art..."

"There is a fountain filled with blood, drawn from Immanuel's veins,
And sinners plunged beneath that flood, lose all their guilty stains."

"I hear the Saviour say,
'Thy strength indeed is small,
Child of weakness, watch and pray,
Fing in Me thine all and all."

"May I reach heaven's joys, O bright heaven's sun!"

"Jesus paid it all, All to Him I owe,
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow."

"Oh Love that wilt not let me go,
I rest my weary sould in Thee."

I write for all of you.

There are a lot of different "you"s in my life.
I just wanted to tell you.
Its not you.
Maybe it is.
But don't think its you.

Blanket

If I was a quilter,
I would collect you in pieces,
Stictch you together,
And wrap myself every night in the blanket that is you.
"I've got nothing," is sometimes the saddest thing you say to me.

This Should be a Children's Poem

It was our house- their hands.

How to Quit

Smoke for my lungs--replaced with tea, paper and pens.
Fresh sky.
I miss the grey; blue does not calm me.
Neither does your voice.
