Living Proof
Living on earth
The inevitable is forgotten
Starting from birth
Religion is loosing its grip
Children are finding new interests
Modern technology has won over their hearts and minds
How can people say there isn’t a God?
Maybe they haven’t seen love on earth
Or the white dove floating above
If one suffers the loss of faith
Take a plane across the sky
And witness the vastness of the clouds passing by
Notice the sun, bright as can be
Science can not explain these things to me
In the past, the church taught society
The greatness and capabilities of God
That was created to worship him and say grace
If we look around us
Everything is proof that he created us
I am not afraid to say
I love and appreciate the things he does for me
day to day
Maybe I haven’t convinced anyone
But I can never turn my back on God’s only son
He will remain in my heart forever
For I am not letting go
Not today, not tomorrow

Family Flaws (by Bez W.)
Family Flaws
Tears, tears drip on the mattress leaving perspiration
Like spears with harsh penetration
This shakes and has potential to break the foundation
The children come to wipe the tears away
Begging the mother to stay, just one more day
Family must work through the problems
Fighting exposes each thorn of emotion
Revealing the unwanted feelings
Then the family can begin the healing
And find a solution
To the hurt and confusion
We can fight today
Discuss our point of view tomorrow
And stay irate throughout the week
But when the sun is hidden behind the dark cloud
We always return to our humble home
Looking for comfort
Because outside we are all alone
