Be as the sun, And doubt not the Son of God; Your guiding compass:- Divine guidance is your gift; Praise God for each day’s dawning:- After sleep, you wake, There’s sunset and sunrise; You’re guided between: Always believe in yourself; Always be in God’s guidance:- Journey faithfully, You are destined for success; God is your compass: When lost, sign in your compass And be guided on your way:- ...

Love Without Measure
I love you beyond the borders of language, where words stumble, faltering in the shadow of feeling. No map charts the expanse of this tenderness, no compass finds its edge. I love you as the ocean loves the shore, returning endlessly, even when it is sent away. I love you as the sky holds the stars, cradling light in an infinite embrace, never asking why...

VERBAL COMPASS
Sugar-coated tongue sway the sea, Like lilacs and roses allure the spree. Barbs dim one's worth, leaving scars to accrue, Stripping away dignity, leaving only rue. Choose thy verbal artillery with grace, For they hold the power to create or erase....

Cracked Compass Finding North
I craved not affection, a desperate plea, Just whispers of worth, a glimmer to see. No mountains I sought, no jewels in a crown, But a touch of acceptance, a smile to drown The echoes of doubt, the shadows so cold Where whispered self-blame its story foretold They painted me worthless, a canvas of fear Their brushes dipped deep in a poisoned...

Premium Member Compass Of Truth Dead Poets Tribute
Oh captain, my captain, you said Carpe Diem go out and seize the day; Lead with only your heart, rule makers have no say; Oh captain, my captain, I know I must just feel to find my truth’s compass; My soul is a wild horse, I’ll not wear a harness; Oh captain, my captain, I’m such a romantic; A filtered heart shaped lense gives prose...
