All That Ever Can Be

2005 - 2006

I don’t know what you’re looking for

So I wish you good luck in your search for happiness

Believe me, it isn’t easy watching from such a distance

Knowing that what I say may not help you through life’s experience

Just know that I’ll be praying for you every step of the way



Faith is hard to describe

And in a way of our own making

But through it all, the ups and downs

The twists and turns, the ins and outs

There’s something bigger giving us strength



Dear friend, I am here if ever you should need me

And although I can’t tell you how to get through life

I will always be here to comfort you if ever you should feel the need

I want to tell you right now that no matter how bad the outcome may look

Remember that I’ll be praying for you every step of the way



If there is one thing I can tell you

Before you walk out on your own

It’s that you’re never ever really alone



Faith is hard to describe

And in a way of our own making

But through it all, the ups and downs

The twists and turns, the ins and outs

There’s something bigger giving us strength



Faith is hard to describe

But it’s also all that there is

It’s all that there ever will be

It’s all that there ever can be



I don’t know what you’re looking for

But I know you’ll never find it if you never try

You’ve got to open your mind and just let what is be

"You've got to open your mind and let what is be." Very nicely put, too often people do not realize this in life. I love this poem. It strange, I had almost the exact conversation with someone that I love who is going off in the world for himslef. This seems to portray exactly what I wanted to say to him, but couldn't find the words. Keep posting.
