A Prophet Scorned

I will continue to pour out this heart
Say the same thing in different ways
Hoping to capture the world’s attention
But no want for fame here
Take you places you have never been
Music to my ears
Is your song of love
So sing it, dove 🕊

I lashed out with this sWord
Slashed down to size
Those who do not care
So thus this testimony against
Is meant to show that God cares
Weep not for yourselves if you are there
But for others as they fall

My love left me vulnerable
Instead of love in return
My heart was maimed
I feel the lance’s blade

Shall I forgive and forget
Or retain their sins against?
Listen not to this bleeding mess
But rather to the Lord’s address

Addressing all the nations
Akin to a cricket’s voice
Drowned out by the noise in their head
His countenance you will dread

You stopped my heart from beating
By your silence and your absence
I still stood on your shore
With my heart before you bleeding

Am nobody for a reason
Tis to show you the season
So that you may finally see
How close to the end are we?

There are some foul spirits at work
Their putrescence is their essence
So easy to spot them and their misdeeds
But denial comes in waves

I have not forgotten you
Only what it is that you do
To me that hurts time and time again
So I forget it as I would a sprain

Got this war in my mind
An intense battle you would find
Between those places
After all your beautiful faces
Tearing me apart without any traces

Bring me close
Just the right dose
Of love in company
Keeping you with me
Oh how I pray you will see

I know that your secret
Is not really a secret
So what matters to most
Is what you do to seek it
The truth as you see it

Will you live forever?
Will you die like the dust?
Both are true
Which place you choose
Clearly defines you

No fame for me
No fate for me
Until after I am gone
To Return with the Lord

Been saying it forever
This love will never sever

All my life
Lived in strife
Sacrificed inheritance
To love the deep
Deep dark pools
Of eyes watching me
Filled with sound light
Emanating like those dreams
Nothing is as is seems

Your joy is my joy
But I am stuck to you
Don’t rip me off
Love is my devotion
To you and to those
Whom I love with all my heart

I could say it any other way
I am now reaching the thousands
In all those different ways
Reaching out despite me
Even been called Moses
So here are your roses

Can you hear the ringing?
The bells that are singing?
Better to proclaim than claim
Your heart, do I aim

Your music danced in my heart
Flights of fantasy emerge
Wondering what to do
But say I love you
For it lifts my soul
Delights my spirit
Tag, I think you are it

I peered deep into my own heart
Saw a light that shone so bright
Your love inside
Exposed and vulnerable
The strongest kind

Saw myself surrounded by Hell
But crosslegged on the ground
Filled with sound light
A halo filled with Love
Breaking through the darkness
With a glimmer from a sword
What is the final word?
