so for me, this is beautiful
a brand new thought and a brand new world

can i stay here forever?  here with You?

i made an airplane out of stone

i always did like staying at home.

remember when?

remember back when we were best friends?
remember when we trusted each other?
remember when we told each other everything?
remember how upset you were when i told you we needed to back off?
remember when you told me you would stop ignoring me?

i don’t love you anymore.
but i miss you.

and the fact that you want nothing to do with me now
makes me wonder if you ever cared about me in the first place.

remember all that?
i sure do.

i know i don’t have the best way of showing it
but i will miss you this summer.

i’m not running away from you.
you have my word.

“there is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered.”

my past is so far behind me, i wonder if it even happened.

all creation felt the Father’s broken heart

when blood and water hit the ground
walls we couldn’t move came crashing down
we were free and made alive…

the day that true love died.

the glass is half-full.

i don’t try to act like i’ve got it all together.
i just make sure not to act like everything is falling apart.

life is so much simpler when you subtract the drama.

your dirty hands

are the most beautiful things i’ve ever seen.
