This heart has a certain inextinguishable fire
It yearns for and it burns that which I love
Not to destroy but to purify what remains
I have seen God face to face and no one believes
I say this not to boast
But to make you realize
That it is me that you seek to abuse and destroy
As I stand here a survivor
I have endured all kinds of abuse and hate
Withstanding even the deepest pain
Truth is I still love you because I see
Beyond what this Earth here provides
Disastrous Wind
All I see is hatred imbued
In everything that opposes good
In your comments and your leadership
Convey that it is right to do bad
They rejoiced with me when I died
So I came back to life in spite of death
Silence fills all of Heaven
And I carry my heart in my hand
I distract myself to oblivion
To focus the love I wish to give
To the one that needs it most
And I love her to folly, see?
But I do not wish to prop me up
And to this end I do not
Yet here my word spreads
Slowly like melting butter
What else can I say that I wish to convey?
Other than good tidings to you and love
May your blessings be thrice holy
And that love prevails in this disastrous wind
Discovery
I write what I write because I am love
Poured out for you and for all
Thought my disguise was good
Living among you as though I was dead
Treated as such I embark on a journey
One of love and self discovery
Teaching one of many the ways of living
Is not without a fair share of loving
My ways are not your ways
Looked down upon by your gaze
I lowered myself intentionally
To prove your affection for me
Something to Reap
Been trying to tell you
About something special
About something remarkable
About something curious
About you and your love
Here I am, I say, I cry, I weep
Here, it is you I seek
Will you even leap?
For it is love you will reap
Disembodied
I heard your voice again today
Disembodied and distant
Wrought with your own hope
Ability to traverse the world in seconds
What you have got you take for granted
Not knowing your true purpose
Flights of fancy are taking over
Idioms are missing their mark
So I stir the pot so to speak
Hoping for some sort of recognition
Not losing anything in transition
To building a life with the loves I love
But the love in my heart is for all
My intimacy with them is my business
Their rejection of me is obvious
Hardened hearts are conglomerating
But amidst this suffering there is always hope
Listing to the Holy Spirit speak, I spoke
What you heard, have you now awoke?
I rest my case with every inkling to show
Cornerstone
Nobody wants to be hated
But the world turns around and hates anyway
Do not hate those who are good by nature
But forgive those who are by nature bad
Love them more than yourself
The innocent get caught in the crossfire
I want no part of your war
Your war has three sides
You against each other
And the innocent by your circumstance
I know what I mean when I say
Tear down everything to the foundations even
But you will not overcome that Cornerstone
That stumbling block to the ways of the world
The Cornerstone will never die and neither will I
Searching
Been searching long and hard
For hearts all torn and scarred
Made a special offering at what was found
But did not make any sound
Immersed in the depth of silence
Breathing in a cloud of incense
I let go of myself completely to the Lord
There was no to and fro with a sword
Upon seeing me in a lowly fashion
He lifted me up into His passion
Guiding my every move I live
Including my tongue to forgive
I am here to put the Fear of the Lord in you
Watching everything and all you do
Letting the Spirit log everything
As I am witness even to you sing
Unwanted
Truth is, I am unwanted
Feeling like I am haunted
Vanishing the hope I created
Leaving me to be hated
This rejection has become the reason
Why I pour out my heart despite the season
But my works never reach you
Despite the effort to beseech you
You put on display your love for others
Excluding anyone that bothers
Not knowing who you are rejecting
In reality, it is ill reflecting
More Love
You love only what you think you see
Invisible I am to thee
Wanting the affection that would come
With knowing your love and then some
But I see your thoughts flutter elsewhere
Instead of my heart, I dare
Wrenched with the pain of knowing
You care not where I am going
I tried to no avail
Blocked at every turn to sail
Toward that heavenly light
Of your love to be so right
So I gave up and sailed away
But your wind unfurled my sail to say
So here I am living in dismay
As you let loose your affection today
Directed at me your love is not
I felt the fight that you fought
Now I am in a dreaded spot
With nothing, nada, not a lot
Flower Power
Heard your voice again today
The sound that propounds my heart
To say I love you without reserve
Showing love off like a brand
Bent on delivering graceful rhymes
Troubled by these end times
Demonstrating love in showers
Blooming all those beautiful flowers
Awaken
Alone because I am not single
When all I want is to mingle
Within you I would awaken
Never forsaken
My desires do not transpire
But when it spreads like fire
Like a wildfire let it burn
For it is mercy as my turn
Always mercy and love are poured out
Never with any kind of a shout
But a firm voice with authority
Not by any superiority
Been kindling love in kindness
A show of affection nonetheless
Ready to pour out more no matter what
While the door to this heart is not shut
Knowing Hearts
Into the depths of your love
Experience the breadths of joy
All different kinds just like you
No enemies I can find
Need for security fulfilled
Amidst any suffering endured
Just like our Saviour
But here I am crying out, save us!
So I peer into Heaven while on Earth
Between places I will not move
Knowing what is in my heart, I love
Yet I notice Heaven so very silent these days
The gasps and the groans I do not mind
Like a moving picture in the sky, I try
All of them watched and can see me die
But my eyes opened and breath entered me
I never question His actions but I do ponder them
So much I want to give to you to show you
Let me boast of God’s Glory to assure of His power
Keeping us safe and happy amidst cold cold hearts
Better World
Your song brought me to tears
Accelerating my heart and changing gears
The temptation to sing along
Met with silence so very long
I have been told and my heart is like gold
Precious to easily melt and fold
I am left alone to my own devices
Crushed by the sin and these vices
I found my calling in scriptures
Not in any moving pictures
Next is the advent of change
For a better world, not strange
Met
We never met in life, not fair
But the connection is there
Summoned by a wish
I am but a small fish
In a very large sea
Wanting to be caught by you to be
Yours
Truth be told, I am worthless
In a world that worships nonetheless
All those idols and cash
Don’t think that I am rash
So why would you want me
To be anything just to be
Yours
I fell hard when I looked deep
It gets personal if too deep
So I dove into the depths of your love
Found tenderness fits like a glove
But I am lamenting the loss of me
To be gone forever and never be
Yours
Do Not
I love you but you do not love me back
Might as well just kick me in the sack
I am used to the pain already
So full of suffering, I am ready
I no longer concern myself with why
Likely due to a misunderstood sigh
As I contemplate a higher self
I am ill content being put on the shelf
What I see and learn over time
I convey in a simple rhyme
To loosen the captive fetters
Adhering to the Roman letters
Though my voice is small
It will soon be tall
As is the order I heard
One that is not absurd
The Lord is here and now
Will you assume another vow?
He waits patiently for a response
Ever since the Renaissance
Bold
I once was bold before the Lord
Brandishing love like a sword
I fell my enemies with compassion
Loved them to a passion
Just like a blind beggar I beg you
Love me back I tell you
Is that too much to ask?
To put someone to task?
The Lord saw my boldness
Stopped me before foolishness
And set my small heart on fire
It burns always under the wire
Now with my heart burning
While the world is churning
I tell you now to repent
My whole life is utterly spent
Diffused
You need to accept the reality of truth
Let it wash over you as acceptance
Diffused light gives no direction
As do those who are not in Christ’s light
Prevailed
The meaning of Christmas has been diluted
Water feeding the trees is polluted
Not one gift from any supposed friend
Not one wish to be happy sent my way
Not one card that proclaims good cheer
Don’t blame the pandemic
It has been like this many years
Rejected by your idea of Christmas
Are the very lives Christ also died for
So my anger naturally flares
Everybody up off their chairs
Look carefully and around
See the lives that surround
See that the least are also Christ
See that this is how Christ returns
Among the least He has already come
And the way was not prepared
On you this was to do
But your selfishness prevailed…
Santa
Who am I that I believe in God?
I tried but to no avail
Hearts are hard
But some are soft
Among those we love
There are those who
Live to destroy works of God
So I beg God for forgiveness on their behalf
For the evil that they do is because in large part
They have been gravely deceived by Satan
Take a look around, Christmas all around
But no creche or baby Jesus to be seen
You hide the reason for the season
Replaced with a suspicious representation
Breaking children’s hearts across the globe
Forcing then to believe in lies
I rebuke Santa and Satan in the name of Jesus
For they are hiding in plain sight
No one questions it and you defend them
Remember what I told you about the little ones
Law of Sin
The wages of sin is death
And the power of sin is the law
More true now than ever
Watch as people abuse that power
