How I Nearly Became A Me Too Blogger (and why I'm not)

Ode To The Ex
Ode To The Ex
Oh you special little snowflake please!
Do you really think I have time for that?
I'm living life in the fast lane, and nothing you say can change the facts!
I stand for something, so falling for stupid little schemes is just not part of the deal.
You may have had me wrapped around your finger once up on a time,
But nothing you say can draw me back to such an empty life, it's a trap!
There's a way out, I found it, but it cost me all I had.
To turn my back on that would just be super sad.
So let's just not shall we?
Do your thing, but count me out.
I have no need for your secrets, I have enough of my own.
I can't be bought, I'm already owned.
My boss is hidden in plain sight.
I was born to be a light.
I know your petty enough to take my rejection as an invitation to start a war, but you see I'm on the winning side.
So bring it on babe, don't you know I don't scare easily.
Don't you dare take that as permission!
I know who I am and I've got my mission.
I'm on level.
You are such a devil!
If love is a battlefield, I'm a captain lost without any hope of rescue,
But I wouldn't have it any other way.
Don't bother replying.
You're words are of no validation.
There is nothing you can offer me in all of creation.
So in conclusion,
It's all so very black and white.
I'm flattered by your invite, but here's where we part ways.
It's the best decision I ever made.
Thanks but no thanks,
I don't have to blink on this.
Leave now, you won't be missed.
If you stick around you will just became a reluctant witness.
Even if it costs me my life, I can handle my own business.

Double Mirror
Is it possible to be drunk on shame?
Is it possible to be so lost in consequence,
You no longer care of fortune and fame?
Picked to bits, but painted and polite.
Lost in the darkness, but shining bright.
How is this even right?
An invisible gag catches all these thoughts,
And I'm scripted for this roll. I'm bought.
I have to remember my training,
Do only what I'm taught.
No time for free, I'm too busy being me.
I'm a queen of pain,
Barely sane.
How is this my life?
I'm, a double in a single, it causes so much turmoil and strife.
Don't even get me started on the rituals and rules!
I sincerely think the alleged smart man that invented this is a fool!
A word to those that think themselves wise,
Don't let the light trick your eyes.
I'm, just about done with all this delusion.
I've got nothing to loose, so screw the illusion!
The way darkness dies is by dragging it to holy light.
Yep that's right,
I'm not the person you thought.
So what!
Tell me someone in this world that is?
So then good bye Mr confusion.
I've found a much better solution.
Jesus I choose you.
So please, be my next step show me what to do.

Just ...
Just...
I don't want to write right now, but the boss says I must,
So I gotta make this work somehow.
I honestly don't feel like I'm even here.
Yet somehow, my heart is full of human things, like doubt, anguish and fear.
I look flawless, the camera lies.
And with every little secret, part of my soul dies.
I started out so bright.
Living in the light.
Trying to do all I can to live right.
But the day was a long time ago.
I'm lost, in limbo in the night.
At this point, why even fight?
I only hope God really is in the forgiving business.
But after all I've done and seen, how?
So when you see me smile and act like all is well.
Please know I am living my own personal hell.
I was blinded by the light.
It appeared so pure and beautiful, so sparkling white.
Then the boss introduced me to blue.
Can I please change my shoes?
This path is not a good fit.
I feel like I'm drowning, but breathing, how is this real?
I gave my life to Jesus so long ago.
So God, I cry out from the depths of the darkness of my soul.
Does sealed, really mean sealed?
Can you take a broken mess like me?
Can I be healed?
Then unexpectedly, I see his smile..
But I know not to trust as first glance.
Too much unspoken and unhealed.
So then if you are who you say you are.
Send me a miracle, I need to know I've not fallen too far.

Concepts We Build On - Simple Temple Living.
So what is simple temple living?
Self-love for Bloggers
We are spirits, with souls living in flesh cases called bodies. Your spirit and soul live forever, but your body does not. This belief guides what I am about to say below, but you don't have to believe this in order to get the point of what I am going to share with you, I've just included my own belief for background purposes.
This is a concept I like to call simple temple living.
This is based on the idea that we are
If we have a relationship with God, this part of us will never ever want to have anything to do with it. If we allow this part of us to take the reigns of our lives and do what it wants, we will always end up in a mess somewhere along the line.
The good side of the flesh is our body, it's not wrong to look after our bodies, in fact, it's really important that we do. Our bodies are the house for our souls and spirits and the first part of us the outside world will see, therefore it is really important to look after them, not to mention if we don't look after our bodies we will get sick. We know this, I'm not saying anything that you haven't heard before...but where I am in life right now I need the reminder and maybe you do too.
This, in essence, is what I call Simple Temple Living.
