Every Time

March 29, 2009

Every time I want to think,
maybe,
just maybe everything's turning around,
it all goes and fades back to the ground.

Every time I listen to the whisper of the wind,
I realize,
someone is dying on the inside.

Every time I believe,
believe in me,
I let myself down.

Every time I want,
I want one thing.
Every time,
that one thing is to know.

To know what?
To know what I think of every time.

The author's comments:
The reason I wrote this is because at my OLD youth group, I realized how all my friends were. They all showed signs of depression,insecurity,and a sense of never belonging. They all felt helpless.
All of them.
They all wanted to have that secure feeling of a Higher Power.
What they wanted to know 'Every Time' was that God was watching over them, or he had forgiven them for smoking this joint, having sex with this guy/girl, or simply being forgiven for cussing.
They wanted to change, but they hasn't changed yet.
