What about those of us who can't afford to buy our schoolbooks the day we know what they're gonna be, hm?

Frankly, I'm not sure what I'm gonna do. You see, school started today.

Where has summer gone? It seems like I've blinked, and it flew by… along with my intention to blog here at least once monthly and preferably more.

I took a poetry class last term for a twofold purpose. I could help my brother with his poetry if I learned how it was written, and maybe learning the writing of it would help me understand it.

To my surprise, I learned I have a knack for it. Me, a natural at poetry. That's a scary thought.

How many people find it easier to make nice little reviews of things than it is to update others on themselves? I'm guessing not many.

…I hope.

Where have I been for the past few… months?

And the LORD answered me:
"Write the vision;
make it plain on the tablets,
so he may run who reads it.
For still the vision awaits its appointed time;
it hastens to the end—it will not lie.
If it seems slow, wait for it;
it will surely come; it will not delay."
Hab. 2:2-3, NESV

Help me!
I'm drowning in these tears,
Surrounded by all these fears—
Help me escape from here!

Lost in the darkness, hoping for a sign
Instead there is only silence,
Can't you hear my screams...?

I waited for You… today.
But you didn't show—oh no, no.
I needed You… today.
So where did you go?

We cannot separate; You're a part of me.
And though You're invisible, I'll trust the unseen.

I cried out with no reply, and
I can't feel You by my side, so
I'll hold tight to what I know:
I'm never… alone.

Do you remember me? Lost for so long…
Will you be on the other side or will you
Forget me?

I'm dying, praying, bleeding; screaming!
Am I too lost to be saved?
Am I too lost?

"Tourniquet" by Evanescence, verse 2
