I lied again...  
==========

Take a hand
Stretch across the burning sky
Feel His breath, His life
And watch a bloody sunrise.

I cry out
Watching myself turn right around
Blinded by the sin
That pushed me to unholy ground.

My knees
Buckle from under me
I'm drowning in the ocean
Of my dreams.

I kiss Your hand
With lips that curse Your name.
I never knew what life could be
Until You came
It's not the same
For me.

I step away
Keeping myself from seeing
Anger, hate, and greed
Are drugs that keep me from believing.

Lame am I
My knees
Buckles from under me
I'm drowning in the ocean
Of my dreams...

I'm just glad that now this rainstorm has ended, and I can see the rainbow once again.

Greater than being shore to ocean
Holding the curve of one position
Counting an endless repetition"

Not your best but very nicely done. I liked this one leah.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

I knew the mandarin one!! Booya!

Ahem...Your piece had some wonderful imagery in it. In particular
"Feel His breath, His life
And watch a bloody sunrise."

That was great.

Well done.
