Freeing Darkness

Freeing Darkness

Tasting the salt of the rain

Caused by past pains

Crippling and unable to move on

Wishing the hurt was gone

Cycles continuously repeating

Energy depleting

Tired of the nightmares awakening

Scars further deepening

Unable to trust another

Not able to open up to any other

Secluded and suffering with images

From love and feelings completely distances

Tried every other avenue

But further soul destruction ensued

Until I knelt on bended knee

And asked Him to part my Red Sea

To escape my hell on earth

He led me out of darkness to a rebirth

Freeing my heart and soul

My inner bleeding healed and consoled

Giving me testimonies to recite

Carrying me out of darkness into His light

Never Enough

Never Enough

The sound of your voice makes my heart skip a beat

Like a broken record on repeat

Love no longer denies

Kissing you with closed eyes

Feeling your arms surrounding

In rhythmic sync our hearts pounding

True love escaping our pores

Never enough, always craving more

Stronger

Stronger

From lessons learned I have grown

Dodged each stone thrown

Totally loving me for me

And being the best and all that I can be

Striving for even higher stakes

No matter what it takes

Or what has to be further endured

Through each mistake I have matured

Escaping stress with peace

With my pen I release

Nothing or no one can hold me back

Staying focused and right on track

Loving even enemies with my whole heart

While nonsense departs

Respect I always demand

And stronger I stand

 

His Answer

His Answer

I have so many things going and don’t know which way to turn

Making the right decision is my main concern

Which doors need to be opened and which ones needs to be closed

I pray for my eyes to see all that is being disclosed

In seclusion I spend my time awaiting the correct answer

Where proper decisions will lead my life to an enhancer

This time is teaching me the values of patience

Showing me where my life needs maintenance

As I prepare my life toward His will

My soul He continuously refills

Giving me what I need to maintain

Knowledge through His Word, I ascertain

Giving me inner peace and confidence

Knowing behind each of my actions there is a consequence

Not falling trap to the chaos that surrounds me

In all the answers I seek, resting assure in His guarantee

Good Morning All! I just finished this poem a few mins ago.  I am slowly working my way back into my writing grove. This poem above I think is the reason I went unable to write for so long. Having soo much on my mind, not wanting to speak until I got peace with all that is on my plate.  People are coming at me left and right, to the point I don't know which way to turn.  I have spent a lot of time alone with my thoughts.  Although I still have no resolution, I am learning to be patient and await His guidance.  Allowing things to work out on their own, as hard as that truly is.  I hope that you get peace and patience from this poem, just as I did!

Waiting

Waiting

Heartbroken because I can’t be with you now

My whole heart is yours, I vow

There is no other I desire

It’s only your love I require

Missing times shared

Nothing else can even compare

To the love we hold for one another

In that trueness I find cover

Each second without you my heart aches

But no matter how long it takes

No matter what we have endured

Let your doubt be assured

My love for you I am restating

I will be here waiting

Rushed

Rushed

Too busy rushing around to even think

Not allowing true feelings to sink

Just going through life’s motions

Caught up in all the commotion

Trying to stay focused

Displaying a lack of emotion went unnoticed

Pulling back wasn’t planned

My time is precious and under demand

It’s nothing you have said or done

Not really up to a rerun

My life is heading in the opposite direction

My heart is elsewhere, please accept my confession

There are feelings residing within

Of a love that pouring out through my skin

It’s always been there hidden and denied

These feelings just won’t subside

I can no longer run or ignore

This love seeping through my pores

Listening to feelings felt my heart is pleading

No longer wanting to deny by continuously rushing past true feelings

Good Morning All! FINALLY a fresh one....If you can see, I kinda been going through an inner struggle. These feelings are true to life :) But it may be a good thing -hint hint-

Thank You-Prayer

Thank you Lord for continously blessing our lives
Thank you for opening our eyes
To your promises and guarantees
Thank you for putting our troubles and worries at ease
Please give us strength to bear adversities
Fill us with the Word that accompanies
Your love and grace
Our hunger for your knowledge embraced
Thirst for your spirit overcomes
Guiding us to being the best we can become
Teaching us your Word as it empowers
Your glory and love continuously showers
Cleansing away our sins
Continue to walk with us as our journey begins
Help us overcome the devils constant attack
Fill us with the confidence we currently lack
Thank you again Lord for always having our back
Thank you for keeping our lives on track
Even when we thought we didnt have the strength to continue
Thank you for your love that always renews
Thank you Lord, Thank you
In Jesus name Amen

Good Morning All! this is a repost but I thought this had to be said today. I have a lot to be thankful for! I went on an interview last week for a promotion at my job, I am thanking God in advance and speaking it into exsistence! God KNOWS I need this! My baby is getting ready to go to college in the fall! And this would be a very nice pay increase, the most money than I have ever made as of yet.  I hope everyone is doing well!

Tasteless

Tasteless

My mouth is dry but I cannot quench my thirst

In a pool of thoughtlessness I am immersed

The world is going on around me

My inner screams are dying to be free

But I chose to remain allusive

Leaving my love and feelings for my own exclusive

Insecurities and heart entwined

Raging their own wars in my mind

Not allowing the other to win

And the other not willing to ever give in

Lost hopes and dreams

Are causing two extremes

Emotions remain unfazed

Inside my eternal love is about to set a blaze

But the one that deserves it has not revealed his face

So until he shows himself, I have removed my taste

Good Morning All! Yes, a repost. I started my second Discipleship class at church and that takes up my evenings. I hope everyone is doing well. Not sure what is wrong with me, been kinda in my own daze...Not in a funk at all, just a lot of planning on my mind. I disnt realize until someone pointed out that I was being very distant, it wasnt intentional at all.

Rainbow

Rainbow

Life continuously throws us down bumpy roads

Pain takes over and implodes

We make mistakes over and over again

But we have to know when to say when

Learn how to overcome

Not allowing ourselves to succumb

To drama and dismay

Never being led astray

Once the rain clears

The beautiful rainbow appears

Note: This poem was inspired by my daughter Tanaesha, she came up with "No Rain, No Rainbow" This poem is to explain her phrase's purpose...


Good Morning All! Yes, another repost...But it is a postive one...There IS a light at the end of the rainbow....Grab your pot of gold....
