Heart of Glass

So, for all you Mormons out there, I think you would be interested to know where this inspiration of mine came from. :) I was in the Rexburg, Idaho temple last Friday and wrote a lot of stuff down about pure love. Not the "in love" type of love but the "pure love of everyone on Earth" kind of love. So I combined all those thoughts that I wrote down with some thoughts I had which were preventing me to fall asleep tonight and came up with this. I also just realized that Valentines day is this week. Perfect timing right?!
Anyways, I hope you all can take at least a little something from this.

Heart of Glass

Not one deeper emotion

Can set eternal forces into motion

It is the greatest power

It makes everything okay in your darkest hour

The comfort it ensures

Gives you hope and faith and the capacity to endure

It has no ultimate end

And brings you back into the arms on which you depend

It makes your heart look like clear glass

Which comes with the danger of breaking too fast

But be courageous and you will see

That heartbreak and trial teach you exactly how to be

Instead of only seeing the annoyances and flaws

Keep the good of others in your heart as a cause

Because everyone deserves love

It is here for the purpose to be made use of

Every living person has a beating heart

Some may be harder to reach but they can still be torn apart

So look and see them with your heart of glass

So that theirs can be opened and cared for at last

Love does not blind you

It opens your eyes

Opens them to things which would not be seen otherwise

The Feeling of No Words

You're stuck in my head

There's no getting rid of you

My heart is caught on your thread

And I can't keep you out of view

Time moves too fast

When I'm far away from you

And things in the past

Are what keep me getting through

There's no saying what the future may hold

It would be crazy to admit my thoughts of me and you

So for now all my thoughts will not quite be so bold

And I will let things happen exactly on que

I sound so irrational

My imagination is on fire for you

But I don't think these things because they're fashionable

I really am caught up in these things I can't construe

With all those smiles of comfort

Others have lost their say in how I feel about you

So for now I'll stay smart

And let your emotions shape mine too

Those Eyes

I'm not usually this easily mesmerized

It's just something about those eyes

I have to try extra hard to keep my cool

But your stare has a way of making me feel like a fool

Getting me lost is not an easy task

My heart is concealed in an armored mask

It's been broken and bruised

By too many countless dudes

But I have gotten smart

Not just anyone can meddle with my heart

Experience has me learned

To never love until it is earned

Yet those eyes make me question

My each and every past lesson

Talk is so easy to do

When staring right at you

When there are so many beautiful girls

And yet you choose the one with the long brown curls

It makes it hard to keep the armor on my heart

It curls my lips and tears my mind apart

Those eyes have seen so much

Yet they only see mine and my heart they touch

The new thoughts that are raging inside of my mind

Are clearly being made and defined

by THOSE EYES 

For Abelina

When we lose someone we love

Things are never the same

I know now that you are a beautiful angel above

Watching over those who love your name

There is a reason for every thing

Though it is hard to secure in my thoughts

You are up there with our Heavenly King

You are loved and you shine in my heart like a million watts

I will never fail to remember you

Being gone doesn't mean you are absent from my life

Up to heaven you flew

Yet you are still here to help me get through my trials and strife

Humanity Can Only Be Found on Two Knees

Humanity is gone

You are stuck in a world where people think right is wrong

Jolting your head back and forth

Because you no longer feel safe on this treacherous Earth

When you are even cautious to walk past your own window

That's when you know there's only one place to go

Your knees give you the needed embrace

For the tears and wrinkles which lay on your face

Bow your head and pour your heart

That's all you have left to give as your part

Innocents lay dead

And the cruelty of others will pound in your head

Living in fear seems to now be the end

And you have all seemed to have lost at least one of your friends

Comfort is scarce and hard to find

It's almost impossible to imagine a happy finish line

No one would ever think again to be surprised

When more hearts are shattered and no one ends up fine

Nevermore Surrender

The heart is insufficient

It makes them so impatient

Giving many reasons not to say

Why things don't end up the right way

They succeed to fool it because they know

They can use it to play and grow

Thinking of themselves and nothing else

It's never been a matter of sanity or health

They take it's savings of all it's years

And only stop to look at it's pile of tears

When all it can do is breathe

They have better things to seethe

No understatements will be assured

All that could be found are the things they injured

They vigorously summoned the fear

Now it will be insane to persevere 

They march in to burn it down

But it's hard to find strength in an evening gown

Rip up the fabric and link it to their wrists

Good things will happen when they can't resist

Put the mind to rest and leave the mess for the next

The fearful's been conquered with passed up effects

Alone on My Own

This is me marching into the dark

The only thing I have left is a soft glow of an idea that I strongly believe in

Step by step

Moving blindly forward

Never stopping

Remembering when life was lit for me

I took it for granted

I didn't understand

Now I have to find my own light

Based off of my own hope and desire

Some ideas fail

Some never even grow

I won't let it stop me

Nothing can hold me back

I have my own determination

It can't be stolen

It can't be ruined

It can't be stopped

Laying out in the dark isn't so scary anymore

When I can look up and see the stars spelling out HOPE

Darkness gives me peace

It gives me strength 

It gives me time to think

When my life was lit for me, I could never look up

Fear captured me

Now that the lights have been shut off, I can never look down

My fear left behind its cage

Spontaneity, hope, and determination have taken control
