There's Light in the Darkness by SkinnedSoul, literature

-Untitled- by SkinnedSoul, literature

Literature

-Untitled-

I'm cleaned, Freed of the sin; The darkness and filth, That covered my skin. I followed your will And I found the way. I searched for you In my lost days. Pure as snow, You have turned black white. You have freed me now: Changed wrong to right Naked I stand at your doorstep, Vulnerable, yet free. I stand before you, Wearing none but humility. I am but a sinner, A sinner with your grace, Freed from the sin Of this dark, ugly place. You have taken me from this world; You have made me something new, A woman living in this world, But belonging to you. I am freed of the sorrow, The sadness and hate; The pain of the lone

Black and White by SkinnedSoul, literature

Literature

Black and White

Beauty born you are. Made of love so true. Pure in nature, White is you. Born in darkness, Knowing only sin, Dark in nature, Black upon my skin. We, Sewed with unique threads, Had the same path Set for us to tread. We traveled far Before we found our place; Meeting once, In a chance embrace. Where reality meets majesty You stood tall; I stumbled in Unbelievably small. Each now Dressed in a shade of grey, Having finally Found our way. Beginning each From different places, With unique thoughts, But Hopeful faces, We met both as black, Both as white, Coming together, To, at once, unite.

Communicate by SkinnedSoul, literature

Literature

Communicate

Communicate! Say it all! Speak your mind, Then take the fall. Speak His word Share His story Show His love Give Him glory Communicate, With actions and words! Don't let His love Go Unheard. Don't be afraid Of what haters will do. Just give the Lord glory For He died for you Communicate! Let the Lord use your voice! Let them hear the word! Let them have the choice! Speak His word! Share His story! Show His love! Give Him glory!

This time last year

This time last year I wasn't sitting here This time last year Things were different This time last year I was a different person This time last year Things were different This time last year I was sure of things This time last year But not now I fear This time last year There was planning This time last year But now just an understanding This time last year I was niave This time last year But not now I fear This time last year It all felt right This time last year It still didn't make sense No more sitting on the fence This year Things are different Different places Different times This year Things are different

Faith like a child by SkinnedSoul, literature

Literature

Faith like a child

Young minds Eager to hear the words we say Silent with their lips Still they teach us the way Young minds without worry Without concern or woe Young minds that will follow Wherever we go Young hearts so pure So filled with love As Faithful and forgiving As the Father above Young minds so certain Of all they've been taught Following without question Without second thought And what if young minds, Became ours as we grew old? Would our hearts be more trusting? Would our love be more bold? To be faithful and Forgiving Our hearts filled with love To be like the young And simply trust our Father above

My Eyes Deceive by SkinnedSoul, literature

Literature

My Eyes Deceive

I scream to you Jesus I say "Save me now" You smile Ready to respond And I add "This is how" But Jesus O' my Lord Your way is just your own You hear my cries And you say "Child, I do not work alone" You send your angels Down to me Dressed as sinful men With horns on their heads But wisdom in their hearts Your angels you send My blind eyes Choose not To see the light Against your words Your wisdom Your angels I fight "He is but a man" I use my vision To justify But my heart Knows the answer That my eyes deny You have sent Your angels down Down to save me I see them now, Jesus O' Jesus, I see I can not

That's all you need by SkinnedSoul, literature

Literature

That's all you need

When you have hope Hope What else do you need? It's all you have left When all else leaves When the sun ducks Behind the clouds When rain falls And the thunder screams loud When the wind whistles And fear is beckoning you When all else is lost Hope is what you do When you have hope Hope That's all you need need It's all you have left When all else leaves When your candle burns down When it flickers and dies When you feel so alone Tears build up in your eyes All you need is hope It's the sunshine in the darkness A fire on a cold, cold night It's the love of a close friend As they hold you nice and tight When you have

Art of Life by SkinnedSoul, literature

Execution by SkinnedSoul, literature

Literature

Execution

One minute we were falling For each other, hand in hand: The next we were at the gallows About to leave this land Hanging separately For the same unholy sin We're dying, my love Before we had the chance to begin They ask me for last words But how could I speak? Empty I am feeling now Your love has made me weak All eyes are watching now Watching you and I Cheering and mocking Waiting for us to die We look at each other one last time Before they secure the hood of black Before they put the noose around our necks And check the rope for slack It's the last moment We need a miracle to keep our life We need our savior To cut

Entwined by SkinnedSoul, literature

Literature

Entwined

I run my fingers Along your veins I trace the map to your heart A million paths All headed to the same place I place my head upon your cheast I fall victim to your rhythm It pumps like into to you And into me Your chest rises as you breathe In and out My body rises and falls As you breathe your life into me Your air mingles Mixing with mine As we, in our separate bodies, Become one, entwined

Why? by SkinnedSoul, literature

Literature

Why?

If I had the answer To the question we all ask I'd smile silently For I knew at last Then I would whisper The answer in your ear I'd say, "Sweet angel, Here's the words to dry your tear" I'd put an arm around your shoulder I'd say, "Friend, I have a secret to share" Then I'd pull you tighter And gently part your hair Then I'd tell you The answer you've been waiting for I'd say, "O dear friend, You mustn't wait anymore" I'd watch you smile As I spoke each word As my lips moved And my voice was heard Then I'd curl up tightly So close to you I'd smile happily Because then we could fight on through

The Night of Love by SkinnedSoul, literature

Literature

The Night of Love

The moon peeks out From behind the clouds Silently, passionately, admiring you The crickets chirp- Chirp a sweet melody A song for you to dance to To move gracefully The stars twinkle happily Watching, admiring the serenity The wind whispers Calling your name Waiting, comtemplating The dark kisses you passionately A moment of pure bliss The fog wraps itself around you A tender, gentle hug This is the night of love

Update on Life!!

0 min read

Well, I've been back to Canada and now I'm living Maui. I've been here for just over 2 months now. I've been going through a very difficult time, filled with different types of hardship. I'm at this strange inbetween stage right now, trying to figure out what country I'll be in and what I'll be doing in one months' time. All in all, I'm doing very well here. Things are very hard, but I'm learning so much and my character is really being formed. I've not written much lately and I haven't taken any pictures at all, but I hope to change both shortly. If you're interested in my journey, feel free to check out my blog. http://kimmcinerney.blogsp

Indonesia

0 min read

Hey friends! I'm back from Indonesia. I spent the last 3 months travelling around and sharing the gospel in remote villages. I spent most of my time in untouched villages in the jungles of West Borneo. Many of the places we went they had never seen white people before. Shortly, I will post pictures of my time there and my time here in Maui as well. I have had an amazing time both places and I'm excited to share. Right now, I'm resting in Maui, Hawaii before heading back to snow in Canada. Yuck! Look for more stuff from me soon.

Maui fun

0 min read

Hey friends. It's been a long time since I've written anything here. I just thought I'd drop a note and let everyone know what I'm up to. I'm chilling out in Maui, Hawaii right now. I'm a Christian missionary. I will be headed off to Borneo, which is in Indonesia, in a months time. I will spend three months sharing the gospel and discipling Christians there. My life after that is up in the air. I'm headed back to Canada temporarily, and then God only knows from there. I fully intend to get back into writing, now that life is such an adventure. I would love to make an attempt to put it to verse and perhaps even music. That's about it from
