I am graffiti on a wall
Some people admired me
They said I was a work of art
I was a colorful design
making a statement in this world
I hold a hidden message
Only the artist understands
Graffiti is an art
But some people cant see it
They think it is a mess
So they critisize me
Point out that I'm a disgrace
And with out taking one second
To try to understand
They painted over me
In black and white
With what they think I should be

I got inspired by this poem friday night. Lately I had been kind of losing faith in everything. Then some one asked me to go to a church youth group with her. I wasnt sure weather I wanted to go because God was something i lost faith in a long time ago. But I went anyways. The youth group leader talked about how we are all gods graffiti. And then the group leader said to write down on a peice of paper what kind of graffiti we ourselfs are. We put them in a box then some body drew out somebody elses and read it aloud. Every body had something different. Most people said art, a statement, a signiture, a way of expression, something that holds a meaning. But mine said "The kind that is painted over."

 reports, 1d 11h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |

Friendship means love...
It's a bond between hearts,
It's the people we know will be there,
To share in our laughter, to offer us comfort,
To understand, listen and care.

I think it says a lot about how some ppl try to change other ppl, just 'cos that what they s'pose it's "right"

I am not a religious person although I do think there may be some sort of higher creation force somewhere outside of our consciousness, I have always been a bit weary of churches and advise people to beware of groups trying to direct people’s faith.
I am not saying that they are wrong; it's just I like the idea of finding something that agrees with my beliefs rather than looking for something to believe in.
And hey!! I believe in you.................
Great work………….
