Premium Member We Can Rise Above This
Pillows of clouds hid behind the black mountain
After showers fell like a light flowing fountain.
As the sun comes so unexpectedly today.
Air is mild enough for blissful thoughts to play.
Fall brings a day like spring without the flowers.
Just winter birds telling stories in tunes after showers.
Songs...

I Rise Above
And it flew higher,
Above the reach of arms which bind,
And logic which Past defined,
It flew higher,
Above the reach of stones of persectution,
And above all unkept resolution,
It pushed higher,
Past the thoughts of those who said It'd never be,
And success would never see,
And it flew until it...

Premium Member I Rise Above You
I rise above you
When you look in contempt
            I'll smile at you
When you will fight my spirit
            I give in to you
You torture my one person
            I fragment on you
You...

Rise Above It
Some people will always call you this
and that, and refer to you in metaphors
which can break the vocabulary
wardrobe.
They will say how you'll never be loved
or get love, rise up, succeed, dream,
find happiness, be normal....
These words will seep so deeply
in you, making you believe that their
color...

Rise Above Before the Fall
Rise above before the fall

You look beneath each unturned stone
where four leaf clover shrouds the path
To wonder, thinking all alone,
what brought about this aftermath

As daisies clamor ‘bout the field
and dragonflies abandon hope
When orchards passing off their yield
will find it hard to even cope

Lest not a...

There are people in NC And other states proven to be abandoned from hurricane Helene

Now, Cat 5 Hurricane Milton is on the way to FL

Prayers rise above a threatening storm
where deadly wind spins ominous threats
To people, animals, property and land
It can't be stopped, people can...

Rise Above The Clouds
Dark demons tore her from within
Pulling her downward into spiraling depression
Shadows of memories long ago
That crumbled her to cracked pieces
Everyone was talking about her
Or so it seemed
She avoided greetings and conversations
With anyone outside
This deep abyss shoved her further down
With whom could she be 'she'? 
Would...

Wipe away acrid tears of yesterday,
unchain the unforgiving guilt inside.
Listen, for a moment, to what I say.
You must, to yourself, open your heart wide.
Allow His lasting love to be your guide,
flounder not in the sea of broken souls.
Rise above.  Feel His love.  Heal,...

Rise Above It
With sort of papers bend
I can see it THE END
Though trembling unseen
Like forgot everything it seems

Heart and pen are at sync
Trying to overcome those obstacles
Struggling that horrible fight
As if fear had hold me tight

It's all broken ,there is rage
And confine in tag of failure cage
Yeah...

(I Will Rise Above -MY - Heart's Weakness)


Shall I bend, to your massive will
break chains of my aching heart
Or with infinite time wait until
life gives love's sweeter restart

Shall I cry, into your bad heart
show pain dripping in blood
Or wait until...

Rise Above Rape
Can I possibly rise,
Rise above my rape?
When all I hear are cries,
And I feel I need to escape.

My mind has resigned,
Anxiety and PTSD is all that's left,
All my feelings are confined,
Its like I've been a victim of theft.

Theft that robbed my life,
And did so by...

Rise Above It
We who have made a lot of struggle in this lovely garden
And have seen how a river can flow on like a jingling girl
Overlooking the muck and mud accompanying the stream
That tries to arrest the dream, full of beautiful movement
Know very well how to rise...

Rise Above It
A man who lacks a sleep schedule.
In a home that houses not only him
But his very own mother
His daughter who comes equipped with
Her very own mother too

Honey girl rises with the sun and sets with the moon.
Daddy is her best friend.
Somehow, he is always there...

Rise Above It


The world exists in constant flux,
a yin and yang affair;
at times, the sun shines warm and bright
and sometimes rain brings dark.
And like the weather comes and goes
in forms, some good some bad,
just like a yin and yang,
some people in our lives become
a plus...
