BATTLE PLAN: RACHE

This is my Battle Cry:

Thank you Lord, let me not be mine own, but humbly yours. Use me however you want. Let me be a radical witness for you , and change the world. Thank you for loving me, and help me to stay focussed on you. Use me Lord in my youth group. If it be your will, let me be a leader and witness of you. Amen.

"For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain."
Philipians 1:21

Where why are we? | May 8 2008 11:49 PM

Is this a fight?
Are we [two sides]
opposed?
Is 'I love you'
trite? Now.
I had to check
[to see]
if Webster knows...
Is this a fight?
Your words are aggravated
Mine are insensitive
I can't pull myself
out of this funk
we're finding us in
'I'm sorry' just isn't
mending any bridges
they still burn...
and the flames
are scorching my heart.
Webster calls it
'a battle,' 'a combat'
'to strive to overcome'
here we are
we can 'stuggle or contend'
all we want.
What I'm asking
is do we give this
a 'fighting chance'?
Do we 'stuggle
to endure or surmount'?
Or does our armistice
require isolation?
Are we Britain and France
will history likely...
repeat?

I feel like a tomato serving as a pin cushin. It's much like a deflating balloon, only tears come out rather than air, making a soggy, red stained, mess.

I am selfish. I want to hurt and be hurt. I want to destruct, and to be victomized. I know how to respond to ugly words. It is the fast way.

I want to love and be loved. I want to reassure and build up. I have failed. My best has fallen short. My balance is unbalance. My affection is stoic. It is fustrating to be a failure, to not be able to give back, to be selfish, to prideful, the ugly, the walrus. What have I done?

What a horrid thing to pay kindness back with acid words. What a shameful and ugly existance.

I give up, I self destruct. I don't care. Hate me, reject me please. Leave, forget, let go. And still I inflict pain, looser. I still care. *hangs head* How to mend a shredded sock?

I want to do something right, and even before I start, wrong again. My words are worthless, my actions are undeciferrable.

:'(

It stikes me...
