what if god caught jesus sinning
what if god caught jesus sinning
the years of lies
that built his safety nets
were shredded
what if mary found his world had stopped spinning
jesus knelt nevermore
sang nevermore
would never shutter a tear or manage a smile
what if juliet was the one left winning
without romeo by her side
he was mess
no one should be burdened by spirits
what if sampson’s hair was never thinning
it’s the source of his strength
it’s his achilles heel
discovery takes visible steps
what if god caught lucifer grinning
he’s claiming yet another
“it’s all for real this time”
“…no more stunts
what if god caught jesus sinning
ghosts
we’ve never actually met
you & i
but i think if we talked
we’d really hit it off
i talk about you
with my friends
(the ones in my head)
my real friends would think im crazy
they might think it’s them
some of them might be right
damn i feel like Tyler
the only one calling my bluff
is the one who knows the truth
if i think about it hard enough
i can feel your kiss
(or at least what i
imagine what it feels like)
i can almost
dance with your ghost
Hymnal For the Cold
Where some of us live
It's a mystery every winter
Whether it'll come or pass
Whether it'll stay for the weekend or until the festivities are over
We sing, dance, laugh, play around it
It makes the season even more beautiful
No matter how much cocoa we drink
Presents we give
Carols we sing
We can't make it appear
Mother Nature must bless us with it
The powder
So delicate
The slightest touch will destroy a hundred flakes
Nonetheless
There is already a string of a thousand more already taking its place
Drifting
Piece by piece
Creating a landscape so perfect
It looks as if a god had crafted it himself
Perhaps that's why we carve angels into it
Sakura
It's what those who can see may call
A pastel pink
I say
It is much more beautiful than that
It's calming
The way a breeze may feel
On a warm
Spring day
It's beautiful
Even to unseeing eyes
A loved one
Planting the flowers of the same name in your hair
One
By
One
Yet
It's so delicate
As if
The slightest breath
May shatter it
Into a dust that would fill the sky
That
Is Sakura
Flower Boy
He's young
Still older than her
His direction of life, unclear
Hers, even more
He knows little
Her, less
They are young together
She still feels behind him
Flower boy must go off soon
"Don't leave, please"
He can't part from her
She won't let go
He is terrified
She, despairing
He is a dimmer shade of blue now
Her pink, faded to grey
He discovers a new yellow
She spots it as well
"I still have time"
"You can spend with me"
He carries her in his arms
Her hair, flowing with his motion
For every Flower Boy
Needs his Flower Girl
Yours
I get it
You think you're not enough
Think I'm too good for you
That you don't deserve me
Well honey
I'm yours
And I'm here to stay
No one can take me away from you
I don't care if they
Are the most beautiful
The richest
The most famous
Perfect
Because those are all lies
Those titles don't belong to them
They're all yours
(Maybe not richest
neither of us are hun)
But
I like to call myself the richest
Because baby
You're priceless
And you're mine
So next time you doubt yourself
Just remember
I love you
And I'm yours
Sunshine
I thought I was on the right track
Turned away from that dark road
Hadn't looked back since
Yet
I never fully left
All I did
Was drift away for a while
I was fooling myself
"I'm on the up and up
I'm happy
I don't want to pop those pills
Everything's fine"
Lies
All of them
I tried to escape
Go to a couple places
Make a couple friends
Post that shit on Instagram
Make it look like I'm
Fine
Lies lies lies
I finally realize my lies
I can't stand to look in the mirror
Even more than usual
My face disgusts me
As I see not myself
But a loser
I don't want to talk
Eat
Write
Play
Listen
I want to sleep
Because it's as close to death
As I'm
Willing
She's a beautiful
Lustful
That temptress calls me closer
Every
Single
Night
And sometimes
I want to call her embrace
But I'm too much a coward
To walk into her arms
She invaded my sacred space
Somewhere I thought I was
Free
A place with memories
That bridge
With my name written on it
The bottom of that river
Blank
Waiting for my signature
I can't swim well
Not while
I'm being held up
By the one
That won't
Let me go
I didn't know it
We were just friends
Nothing more
Not lovers
Not significant others
But she
Was the one to save a sinner
Her golden hair
Draped down her face
Like rays of sunshine
Her hand
Grasping mine
Not letting me go
Holding on until the end of time
A forever
She loves me
And I her
She's the only reason
Why I can wake up
And love something
Everything
She's as bright as any star you'll find
That dark sky behind her
But when the morning comes
Her light does not fade
She is
My sunshine
And I
Am proud to call myself hers
