A Prophet Scorned

Closer and closer
Soon to be a hug
When this is all over

But if I would die
By touching your face
I would gladly go

All I do is for you
And for the Lord
So love to Love you

Your voice makes it so
Beyond all senses in a row
You make this love flow

My fear is in the Lord
But should I pass away before
Looking into your eyes once more

Peace to you and yours

Hidden in the twinkle of twilight
That twinkle in your eye
Not to be wiped away
I heard the song of your voice

So sing to me that song of love
One that will take up
Hearts to Heaven in a dove
By a loving tone and melody

Rest assured of salvation
Found in a silent place
Not alone or afraid
I got this

My heart slowed down
To a beat with a frown
Felt enormous love
From the Spirit up above

Dwelt in the desert
In my hands, sand
Slipping through my fingers
Until a diamond appeared

A heavy darkness covers the people
Dechristianized they are
Abolishing the Sacrifice
They know not what they do
Not an excuse
But a call to prayer
To fast
To cast
And bring all nations to their knees

What evil that lurks beyond the shadows!
In darkness they persist
A hatred for all things good
Because they cannot even forgive

It is a blessing to be a prophet
For revelations come every day
Revelations like this:

If you know what will happen
With any of your actions
Life certainly is led
In a very different way

To spare you from the pain
To be led a certain way
Soothing burning hearts
With kindness I will say

So I keep to myself
For all I see is death
Overwhelming sadness
For the lost I feel dread

Lifted from the dust
To the highest of heights
Penultimate to Christ
Yet One and the same

Does nothing for you
For me to be this way
Except if I teach you
His glorious ways

But your hearts are hard
Mind filled with delusions
But next comes Fire
With an inextinguishable blaze

You will thirst and not be quenched
Insatiable desires churn
Your inner world inside out
Revealed to all in a glimmer of light

Be naked and unashamed
Before the Lord of Lords
By the truth set before you
That love is the key and the way

Apparently I do not matter
To the ones I love the most
Meaning only to love
With the gifts I was given

Denied true friendship
Because of well hidden lies
Tearing me apart
Limb from limb

My hour has already come and gone
Those I love missed it all
The glory of the Resurrection
Next comes Ascension

What will they say then?

Your beauty overwhelms me
Taking me places emotionally
Where joy explodes within
Even while my eyes go dim

Like a torch I already burn
A torch to shed light
On a certain circumstance
Hidden between writings
Of a hallowed revelation

There is only so much or so many
Words to explain it all
The experience of true freedom
Blending with the imprisoned

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

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

My heart thumps out blessings
I am wounded and need dressings
Still pouring out profusely
My blood don’t you see?

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

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

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

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
