Your beauty overwhelms me
Taking me places emotionally
Where joy explodes within
Even while my eyes go dim
Month: April 2020
Circumstance
Like a torch I already burn
A torch to shed light
On a certain circumstance
Hidden between writings
Of a hallowed revelation
Freedom
There is only so much or so many
Words to explain it all
The experience of true freedom
Blending with the imprisoned
Creeds
My heart it bleeds
By following my creeds
Which deem my immortality
Faithfully and dutifully
All my life
Truly now I have freedom
But jealousy always ensues
With hateful speech imbued
In the lives of those who listen
So I keep it quiet and in the down low
Waiting and waiting
For you to come home
Implored
I am constantly ignored
Because I implored
For a simple sign of your love
Received it not
Nothing I have got
Believing a lie I never sought
But now I seem careless
Not by the way I dress
I am invisible and far from it
I washed away the pain
With love like a spring rain
Rejection is not absolution
So be careful in your tower
Love is my superpower
Disarming even demons it seems
Wounded
My heart thumps out blessings
I am wounded and need dressings
Still pouring out profusely
My blood don’t you see?
Grace
You wounded me alright
With just your looks and with one bite
Of my infinite soul
A love offered freely
Must be bold in grace
And not deface
That Jesus is the Christ
Offering
Just as he said
To God a prayer
Of offering and power
Proclamation was made
To God as King
And His light filled the room
Like silent warmth and unending joy
Attacks
Ease my troubled heart
I’ve been wary from the start
Darkness surrounds me
Attacks compounding
Even knocking things out of my hands
Out of desperation
Cowardly innovation
I am not frightened
Actually elated
As it means I am on the right track
Bad Omen
My hope is in the Lord
My life is always His
He opened my eyes and heart
To see the lies that start
So I begged for forgiveness
Received it with acceptance
For that is who I am
Truly goodness always
My behaviour is selfish
Because I have no one to turn to
So I let go of my life
And let the Lord lead
True to His word
Deliverance is not absurd
He gave me His blessing
And showered me with gifts like he said
Thus I shared this gift
Jealousy and hate ensued
Tore me to pieces
And left me for dead
I bring tidings of bad omen
That your sins against God are great
You ignored and shunned His prophets
Stifling His word is bad
He will stifle you back
And He has
This is just the beginning
If you do not repent
Scandal
How I live and breathe is unique
Acknowledging that I become a sinner
The moment my lips touch yours
When love soars to certain heights
It’s hard to ignore
Better to explore
Learn about each other
Being vulnerable always
And it’s okay you cause me my pain
I forgive you with love
And hope for trust
But I am forgotten
And my life in disarray
But one thing is for sure
I am still living in that Spirit’s gentle flame
Castle
You built yourself
A castle of illusions
Feeding your delusions
Cash the go to source
Of relief and worship
But it does not love you back
And tore a hole so very deep
Betrayal of the deepest kind
Came Down
I came down to see
To witness everyone be
To smite and warn
Those who are likewarm
But my message fell on deaf ears
I have nothing left but these tears
Blindingly they persist in sin
Citing their own lies within
Their love has run dry
It is though they do not try
But when they harm the little ones
They reap destruction by the tons
My anger fills this cup
To relent I must drink up
But I poured it out instead
Now it is on your head
Blood
I never asked for blood
But they shed it anyway
I never asked for this pandemic
I commanded it
Good Friday
He died for our sins today
May Christ manifest Himself to you this Easter
Show
I’m an escalator down from Heaven
Trying to convince their nature
To be good
But they are hard of heart
One has to bend them like iron
This pandemic is one of them
There will be another blow
This time with fire
It will fill the sky
But steadfast love will come
From neighbour, friend, and foe
The love of God will show…
Beyond
My Heart wrings out sorrow
My halo and sword you can borrow
Trouble me with forgiveness
From my Heart to you I bless
Trying to say many things
Hidden like Saturn’s rings
To broaden your surrounding
And see the light beyond drowning
Worth Living
This world has not been kind
Now back to the daily grind
Got so much to look foward to
All that love in between gotta be true
I have a blessed and cursed life
A certain kind of easy strife
Looking forward to it
To the time we meet and sit
My hand is gentle
My words are kind
My body is vexed though
Bread always starts off as dough
My Lord who shaped and formed you
Is my father, brother, and mother
From God is always a life worth living
Never a dull moment in giving
The possibilities are endless
Of what is written there is what is not
Can either be good or bad
Good for others or just yourselves?
