Wow you wrote this? You can just see your heart in it and your personal relationship with the Father. Thankyou for sharing, keep it up. 
I liked it

Angel's Wings
I Spend my days walking through angel's wings
And when I sleep, they cover me
My life exists of unseen things
Walking hand in hand with reality
What my eye doesn't see
His spirit reveals
What my heart holds true
Brings me to my knees
At first light when I awake, not quite stirred
My Love, my Lord, whispers thoughts
That leads me through my day
He always lights the way
And when night-time comes
Wearied and bruised
A price to pay when I walk in this world
I shut the door
Alone at last
My comforter brings healing to my soul
Refreshing and loving arms enfold
No one understands why
The phone's left ringing
The door never opened
They dont understand
The company I keep
As I sit for hours
At my Master's feet
The conversation is electric
I never want to leave
Every word is precious
His touch unique
We laugh and smile
And talk about life
But His love
Still cuts like a knife
It doesnt matter that it makes me weep
Because He always kisses the tears from my cheek
So if you ever meet Christians who do the weirdest things
They could be like me
Walking through angel's wings

I love this song, it is my heart and how I feel at the moment..numb.
My Last Amen
Lyrics by: DownHere
From the corner of my eye
There's a tear I'm trying to cry
But the feeling can't be found
Like a note thrills in a song
When I play it again, it's gone
Cuz it was never in the sound
And it keeps me wanting
That mysterious thing
Like a night is waiting for a dawn
Every prayer I say (a little closer)
To my resting place (a little closer)
Where my final breath is the beginning
To never needing
And I will find my last Amen
I could swear I have two hearts
One to stay, one to depart
This sad, tragic kingdom
And it burns me down to the core
Because I know there's so much more
It's just a pale reflection
And it keeps me wanting
That mysterious thing
Like an outcast waiting to belong
And while the thrills are fading
The joy is in the waiting
Somewhere in the grand design
It's good be unsatisfied
It keeps the faith and hope a little more alive

you know you make this into a big
ball of confusion of wasted time and energy
how simple is just talking? Doesn't cost
a thing.
I think I settle for a lot less with you a little too much,
I thought you could at least be a little considerate
that you are dealing with an entire human being
with feelings like you.
Don't give me BS about how you have no feelings,
you obviously rant so much about love, someone who
loves has feelings and a conscience so you can't fool me..
I'm so tired of this, you are obviously playing games
when you say you don't. You don't know what you want.
You push me away, pull me back, push me away and so on.
You don't treat me the way a man should treat a woman
you need to be with a woman who will treat you the way you
treated me so you know how bad you make me feel.
You get what you put into a relationship, which was practically nothing.
(This raise an eyebrow? you say?...let me explain...)
We never had a relationship, it was always you and the world, and I was
always on the side, a bit of a token girlfriend convenience for you that's all..
and you did not love me, you do not love me, I hold no importance in your eyes.
Nor am I cherished at all or seen as worthy.
You are only using me this is not love, I foolishly assumed it was.
I made this horrible relationship look good because I thought...I assumed
it would turn out better, but I was only deceiving myself...
I think I deserve a lot better than this, I expect it out of you
because I believed you were capable..
This is getting old...really fast for me.
Look I don't want to take away your dreams, and I won't, that simple.
You want lust not love, you can get that with anyone.
That's just how it ends up with you anyway, you won't change even for love.
not for my sake but for the sake of Love.
If Love is what you really want then you have to change your heart for it.
Obviously I think I've said this before...I know I have...you don't seem to listen.
I need more than this, or just move on and get out of my way!
because I'm done.
W
I'm not gonna write you destructive letters
and say bad things about you, I've said what I need to,
you can do that to yourself,
you know you are always hurting me, abusive to me, you call me names
I already know you are already guilty...why bother?
This is stupidity that's all I can say.
you don't want to be with me, you don't love me,
you are a liar, and a coward.
Is that what you wanted to hear? Then that's the kind of person
you should have been with...
You have no idea what hell you put me through all these years,
and torment and guilt I felt, I felt responsible for you...
I felt so bad about you I wanted to die..
Do you care? no...Its always about you everything is...
these things you put on me, caused me to lose my place in a good school,
and you seen that, I lost so much because of you.
Do you care? No
How dare you think I don't love you or have not given up my life or dreams for you....
when you first hand witnessed these...
and I was trapped with you, but I didn't want it to turn out bad...
Just grow up...for once in your life.
Be a man for once in your life, and just let me go..

Just Between You And Me
Lyrics by: DC Talk
Sorrow is a lonely feeling
Unsettled is a painful place
I've lived with both for far too long now
Since we've parted ways
I've been wrestling with my conscience
And I found myself to blame
If there's to be any resolution
I've got to peel my pride away
(chorus)
Just between you and me
I've got something' to say
I wanna get it straight
Before the sun goes down
Just between you and me
Confession needs to be made
Recompense is my way to freedom now
Just between you and me
I've got something to say
If confession is the road to healing
Forgiveness is the promised land
I'm reaching out in my conviction
I'm longing to make amends
So, I'm sorry for the words I've spoken
For I've betrayed a friend
We've got a love that's worth preserving
And a bond I will defend
(repeat chorus)
In my pursuit of God, I thirst for holiness
As I approach the Son, I must consider this
Offenses unresolved, they'll keep me from the throne
Before I go to Him my wrong must be atoned
If there's to be any resolution
I've got to peel this pride away
Just between you and me
I've got something' to say
I wanna get it straight
Before the sun goes down
Just between you and me
Confession needs to be made
Recompense is my way to freedom
It's my way to freedom
It's my way to freedom
I've got something to say, so let me say it today
It's my way to freedom
I've got something to say, confession needs to be made
It's my way to freedom
I've got something to say, confession needs to be made
It's my way to freedom
I've got something to say.

Some people gotta learn the hardway
I guess I'm the kinda guy
That has to find out for myself
..I'm on my knees and I'm crying for help.
It took so long for me to see
That I'm a victim of nature and me
Left to myself I realize
I am the maker of my own demise
But you accept me every time and again
And never mention just how selfish I've been
Why must it always take me so long to see
That I have fallen but you will forgive me?
The warning signs are like flares in the night
Still I proceed my greed is in spite of the fire
I know that's bound to burn
Why is it that I always gotta learn
The hardway
Still I'm crying for your help.

The band of time
Nothing before, and nothing beyond
but in between, a stripe, a ribbon
a band of time, where humans
"live". But existence is not
contained in this rapid
birth and growth,
this death and
inevitable
decay.
This
formed,
furrowed,
yet shapeless
mass of humanity.
Mortality on display for
so many years, and so many
tears. While years mean nothing
from the perspective of an outsider
viewing it all... while still looking past it.

Addiction
by: Lowanla (me)
Its destroying me,
killing me,
tearing the life out of me,
telling me that my friends
and family hate me and I'm alone,
isolating and separating me,
Its calling me, seducing me,
drawing me, lying to me
saying "I love you"
so I won't run away,
Its keeping me,
draining me, chaining me, binding me,
manipulating and controlling me,
so it can fulfill its selfish needs
and when I'm dead and its done with me
it will move on to someone as stupid
and dumb as me
I just wanted somebody to love me
I just wanted to be happy
God please help me
I just want to be free
I just wanted somebody who
really loved me for nothing
I wanted someone to tell me
That I am worth something
Help me let go of this addiction
Help me be strong and say no
and stick to my guns
taking a stand and just standing for once
This addiction...
that does not care about me,
that doesn't think I am worth anything
This lover that does not love me
This addiction that is killing me
Give me strength to be the hero,
the only person in the world who
believed me and cared,
enough to save
me...
S
You totally did not make that up... did you?!
You know, there are therapy and support groups for that sort of thing. This was one of your more intense ones (or maybe I haven't gotten around to enough of your poems), I think. Somewhat chilling, but I liked it. <^3 <- That is a text-based thumbs up, btw.

Yeah I know about the therapy groups I've been to the hospital before for depression and suicide, I actually think I need to go back for some antidepressants. The kicker is the fact I'm just now realizing that I have a problem and that i have to do something about it. I have to cut the problem off which is going to be tough for me, because I'm always making excuses that the situation is going to get better like the lies promise me its sort of fantasy land.
Not to sound lazy but writing out my poetry is 10 percent therapy for me.
alcohol, drugs, bad relationships, anything that you get too much of "conditional love" or "false comfort"
can turn into destructive addictions. All this time I've been deceiving myself into thinking I didn't have a problem, sadly I do. That should be a big step right... Admitting first that I have a problem?
The best way to save yourself is by being honest with yourself about your situation...
Hopefully this time I can stick to what I said, letting go is easy, standing up for myself is the hard part.

Callous Ammunition
by: Lowanla (me)
A relationship consists of two people alone
You never realize the importance of restraint
until you realize that I am numb and cold
because you shot me full of bullet holes
You are not the only one to blame
I too say a lot more hateful things
Not sure how we can go back to the same
I can't bare to look at your face with all the pain
but do you feel the same guilt that I do?
Or do you even care anymore
you send me mixed messages
you make me feel like you still love me
but you are telling me its already over
I don't need you to feel sorry for me
you know you aren't really helping me
...if you don't want to be with me
if I am in the way of what makes you happy..
do a girl a favor...move on without me.
don't send me false hope if you don't mean it
love is too beautiful to be badly treated...

We
by: Lowanla (me)
how you know you love somebody
you feel hurt when they hurt
you suffer what they suffer
a day without them hurts too much
You can never say "I love you" too many times,
you can get tired of it, but it never gets old.
I love this person holding me
I would not for the world bare your suffering
for you to hurt only hurts me.
I feel like we are one person constantly hurting
but I feel better when you are holding me
cause then we are not hurting
but loving and happy or at least fixing broken things.
I love you
the past is as nothing
because you are just that important to me.

Good morning
by: Lowanla (me)
the miracle in me
is the faith that I believe
I am not consumed
no I am not destroyed
When many strive to kill the Christian in me
hope rises up with new life and new dreams
and though I often get confused in fear
and I myself have said I am God or I am better
Its the word that clears the fog and brings me
back that I am not.
its God's love mercy and grace that says, I am forgiven
O taste and see that the Lord is Good
and live, his mercies are new every morning
and great is his faithfulness
Good morning.

Way to put my foot in my mouth...We love you Lovesong, and I'll pray for you!

Oh, well I was half joking about the support group/therapy remark. I wasn't aware that you were waist deep in depression. Way to put my foot in my mouth...
We love you Lovesong, and I'll pray for you!
Way to put my foot in my mouth...We love you Lovesong, and I'll pray for you!
On a higher note, I haven't prayed to God in a long time, I felt his peace and presence which is exactly what I needed.
Thankyou! I receive and welcome all prayers.
