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

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....

Excuses

Excuses

Why do we make excuses for why we can't obey
This is when our hearts are led astray

Falling into evil temptations
Ignoring His expectations

Then blame Him for not progressing
Instead of on our knees confessing

Wondering why our problems are not being alleviated
But the route He mapped we deviated

We go to church and hear the Word
But don't truthfully understand what we heard

We take what we want to hear
But our efforts are not sincere

How can you love Him with half of our heart
Without learning His Word that He is attempting to impart

Build a true relationship with Him
Allowing Him to be the only one you depend

He will give you the strength to make it through
Your spirit He will renew

You will be able to feel His presence within
And allow your walk with Him to truly begin

Exodus 3:10-12 NIV
10-"...So now, go I am sending you to Pharaoh to bring my people the Israelites out of Egypt."
11-But Moses said to God, "Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the Israelites out of Egypt?
12-And God said, "I will be with you. And this will be the sign to you that it is I who have sent you..."

Exodus 4:1 NIV
1-Moses answered, "What if they do not believe me or listen to me and say, 'The Lord did not appear to you'?"

Exodus 4:11-13 NIV
11-The Lord said to him, "Who gave man his mouth? Who makes him deaf or mute? Who gives him sight or makes him blind? Is it not I, the Lord?
12-Now go; I will help you speak and will teach you what to say."
13-But Moses said, "O Lord, please send someone else to do it."

See how Moses made exuses to not obey God's instructions!!!! We doubt ourselves or dont want to stand up in His name, we are ashamed and deny him....Just as Peter denied Him after Jesus was arrested prior to Him being crucified, Peter denied Him three times...

John 18:17-18 NIV
17-"You are not one of his disciples, are you?" the girl at the door asked Peter. He replied, "I am not."
18-It was cold, and the servants and officials stood around a fire they had made to keep warm. Peter also standing with them, warming himself.

Making exuses is basically denying God, in His eyes...Yes, we are sinners...and are not perfect, but God knows whats in our hearts and he knows if we are truly trying to please Him...Dont make exuses...Just do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good Morning All! I am reposting this for a reason today. I forgot and missed my first DiscipleshipII class. I fell into temptation. I had a long day at work and went home and had a couple of glasses of wine. When my teacher called, I could have went if I hadnt drank the wine. I felt bad beyond measure. It made me think...If I hadnt missed church on Sunday, I may have remembered. So now, all I can do is ask Him forgiveness and not allow anything else to come in between my classes and the bonding with Him! I WILL do my homework, and be in class next week! No excuses...


I hope that everyone has a great weekend!

I Still Want You...



I Still Want You

I want you to kiss me passionately like you used to
I want to see you smile again when I am in your view

I want to feel the passion we once knew
I want to forget the troubles we have been through

I want sleepless nights next to you
I want our love to feel brand new

I want ecstasy to the fullest pursued
I want to feel safe to subdue

I want you to completely hold me within you
Feeling your love inside is long overdue

I want our love’s strength to always anew
Baby I still love and want only you…

Good Morning All! Another repost, sorry....This is am old one and the person I wrote this for crossed my mind...I hope everyone is doing well!

Artistic


Artistic


Artist of words
Creating images

Of my life stories
With pen and paper

Spilling my heart
In all shades

Onto my easel
Broadening horizons

Painting lessons learned
With rhyme and reason

Tantalizing word play
In the artistic form of poetry


Hello All. Sorry for yet again another report...I am posting this for some inspiration...I am doing well, very well right now. I just cant lock in a topic. I am so in need of a muse....Now that I have a laptop and able to access the internet, I still cant write...Its frustrating, I have started a few things....But I have been working on the novel I started years ago...But thats easy because its all based on facts....

I hope that everyone is doing well!

His Light


His Light

When the clouds are too thick to see the light
Keep your goals in sight

Be prepared to trip and fall for your vision is not yet clear
Find that strength to persevere

No matter what road blocks are in the way
In the good and the bad, dont forget to kneel before Him and pray

Be thankful for where life has brought you thus far
Even when the lessons learned leave scars

Stop making wishes over a four leaf clover
For it aint over, until God says its over

He will provide all that you require
And not always everything you desire

Have faith that it will all work out in the end
Just the way He intends

Allow His love in your heart to reside
His light is our constant guide

Good Morning All! Sorry for reposting yet again...But since I havent written anything fresh, this poem spoke to me today. I went through a rough patch recently, and He worked things out above and beyond, as always. So right now I am so grateful and praising His name!

I just got a mini laptop, so I can do some writing on. I started editing one of my novels I havent touched in years last night. Since we have a three day weekend, I promise to have some fresh poetry to post  next week. My mental state is in a place now, where I can release. I am unable to write when I am going through the situation, I usualy write about it after, as a closure thing for me....I am ready to do so now....

Kiss


Kiss

Kiss me like you never have before
My reservations and hesitations totally ignore

I know I haven’t allowed myself to completely let go
Allowing emotions to reach its plateau

I have been scared to give in
Terrified to truly begin

Kissing you takes things to a new height
Setting a blaze my fears to ignite

Trusting you entirely
Releasing to you my heart in its entirety

Unleashing feelings never felt
While insecurities continue to melt

Demonstrate without words but with actions
Not allowing for any distractions

Feeling again that pure love actually exists
All of these feelings set free just by your loving kiss


Good Morning All! Since some of us are still in a "lovey dovey" mood, I figured this poem was appropriate. Although I didn't even get a kiss for Valentines Day...I wrote this poem because I have always had issues with kissing because its so much more for me and I don't kiss everyone...I think I am getting over that...This is a repost, I still haven't been able to write...I think its just that soooo much is going on right now that I haven't had time to even put a thought together...I know I have been missing in action but I will be back regularly very soon....

What's Love-Happy Valentines Day!

What's Love

Really, truthfully
Two hearts connected as one,
Loving each other endlessly
Accepting each other’s faults
Showing the other unconditional true love
Without expecting anything in return
Supporting one another in everything
No matter the consequence
Agreeing to disagree, communication strengthens

But we are afraid of getting hurt
Lied to, betrayed, or cheated on
Mentally or physically
We are scared to completely let go and wholeheartedly love
My problem is that I don’t know how to love if it’s not completely
Giving my all
I don’t know how to love partially
What’s the point
If it’s not REALLY LOVE…

Good Morning! I hope that everyone has a great and loving Valentines Day! I have no special plans, other than spending the evening with my daughters. This poem is a repost, I have started poems lately but still not too motivated to write...

I hope that everyone has a blessed day today! I promise to write really really soon!

Imperfections


Tired of constantly stressing
So with my pen I am confessing
My sins and wrong turns
Praying for guidance to return
Allowing life to take my joy
Disconnection notices starting to annoy
Causing disruption within my spirit
Pain so overwhelming trying not to feel it
Knowing He IS going to work it out
In that having no doubt
Just tired of struggling
Daily juggling
Amongst this madness
I must push through this sadness
And give my stresses to Him
The only one I can always depend
To carry me through any storm
Putting my life in His hands to transform
Realizing stressing was useless
Making my efforts fruitless
Refocusing my direction
Accepting life’s imperfections

Monday, January 24, 2011

Muse-less

Good Morning All!  I hope that everyone had a great weekend! I am currently slightly stressed and I think that this is why I am having so much trouble finding my muse. Its usually easier for me to write about something after I have gone through it....The things going on, I am confident that things will work out. I guess you could say that I am more frustrated than anything and that is messing up my flow right now. I am trying to get myself back on track....

Checking In

Hello All!  I hpe that things are going good for everyone. I am sorry that I havent posted anything new lately. Still having issues getting my computer at work...Long story...

Plus I havent been motivated to write anything new....I honestly havent even tried...I will have to pull it together by this weekend...

Desire

Desire

Desires invade
Minds concentration
Distort thoughts
Configuring manifestations
Replacing ambitions
Caught in the moment
Criteria dissipated
Lighting desire
Tantalizing frustrations
Inviting tensions
Settling for less
Less deserved
Passing blessings
Succumbing to
Controlling desires

Freed

You tried to take me, my soul
Until I learned to gain control
You hurt me in ways I couldn’t let go
Locking my pain inside so no one would know
Desperately wanting my father’s love
Realizing my Father is the man above
Looking for love in the wrong places
Pushing past the hurt of many different faces
Made mistakes I can’t take back
Now focused on getting my life on track
Releasing the flash backs and nightmares
That haunted when no one cared
Finding and truly loving me
All that pain and hurt finally freed

Tuesday, December 28, 2010

Aim

Drips dropping slowly
Forming a knowing
Of obstacles and triumphs
In my throat formed a lump
Knowing what to do
Confidence seeping through
Finding my way in this place called life
Made amends with all this so called strife
Letting go of inhibitions
Making better decisions
My life I reclaim
To higher heights I aim

Deceit

Deceit

Not falling for your lies
Revealing your disguise

Elated I didn’t release my heart to you
Bigger and better opportunities I pursue

I deserve more respect than you have given
But all is forgiven

Because it’s not my place to judge
It’s not even worth me holding a grudge

I am not that same person anymore
No longer making the same mistakes as before

The difference is that I love and respect me now
Demanding what I deserve, I vow

Not wasting time in sorrow
Looking forward to a brighter tomorrow

Not even worthy of shedding a tear
When I know my heart is sincere

No longer giving to the undeserved
Especially when it’s unearned

No longer serving a purpose, cutting off all ties
Seeing truth beyond blatant falsies and deceit

Double Crossed


Double Crossed

You were the one I thought I’d spend my life with
But our “happily ever after” was a myth

I thought I knew you, everything about you
But your lies have been seen through

It hurts because above all else you were my best friend
That one person I could always depend

Now our friendship must cease
Leaving my broken heart in one piece

But at least now I know the truth
And am sure of what’s it’s my view

Now it’s time to let go and move on
My love is now withdrawn

Because you were never worthy of me
Not worthy to be the trustee

Of my heart and all that entails
And all of that would have unveiled

I guess it’s just you’re loss
With your plans to double cross

Stolen Kisses

Stolen Kisses

We see each other in passing routinely
Sneaking a peak here and there
So very discreetly
Words unspoken in midair
When the elevator doors closed
He reached in and kissed my lips
Tongues danced like they were composed
With eyes closed like an eclipse
Tensions mounted as my heart skipped a beat
Not wanting it to end
As the doors opened we tried to play discreet
But inside we couldn’t pretend
This was not long awaited
The longing could not dismiss
Lips left much elated
Until the next time of stolen kisses

Warmth

 Warmth

Snowflakes decorating the sky
Winter chills brisk bite
Loneliness hard to deny
That person holding me through the night
Loving me to no end
Body heat rising
Fluids mixing to the perfect blend
Positions continuously revising
Defining ecstasy with chemistry untamed
Arising eruptions unable to conceal
Heart lustfully inflamed
My dreams so alive, almost surreal

Intrigued

Dali Salvador


Intrigued by the depths of you
Got me wondering if I should pursue

Curiosity is getting the best of me
Putting myself out there with no guarantee

I am feeling your sexy style
Hopeful you are worthwhile

Not looking for anything serious
Loving the mysterious

Wanting to know what it takes to make you smile
Levels of you trying to compile

Piecing together the real you
Asking myself if you are true

I have enjoyed time spent
Curious of your intent

Time will only tell
If things will excel or we say our farewells

Actions speak louder than words could ever
Hoping we are successful in our endeavor

Eager to see if you can take my breathe and leave me fatigue
You have me very intrigued…

Vibe

Vibe

Vibes flowing within my veins
Of thoughts remain
On the tip of my pen
Releasing over and over again
Flooding paper with unspoken words
Previously unheard
No longer locked inside
All my secrets I confide
Feeling the rhythm
Becoming the victim
Getting lost in thought
Inner battles being fought
Verses being scribed
Syncing with each syllable of this vibe

Awaken

Awaken Love-Charlotte Atkinson


Awaken

His touch awakens, as a breath of fresh air
His kiss evokes feelings deep
Way beyond a casual affair
With my heart at ease, comes peaceful sleep
His heart soothes inner fears
His eyes confirm sincerity
Wiping away stains left from trails of tears
Walls tumbling, leaving room for prosperity
His personality completely comforts, emotions ignite
His hands guide in new undiscovered directions
Withstanding disagreements, previews a different light
Willingly demonstrates truth behind affections
His voice fills my ears, profoundly outspoken
Words don’t give justice to an unwritten lyric
With him, love prevails the unspoken
His love fully awakens my spirit

Beauty- HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME :)

HAPPY 35TH BIRTHDAY TO ME :)




Beauty

Fresh hair cut and color; make up looking fierce
Eyes deep enough to pierce

My fresh black pumps with the newly manicured toes out
Looks are deceiving; inside I am overcoming self doubt

Tight, sexy dark blue jeans with the red low cut top
Making all of the on-looking mens jaw drop

Cute baby face on the outside
But who wants to really know the complete inside

Short in height and small in frame
Does anyone care whats really in my brain

Focused and professional. but always real
When will someone truly care how I really feel

Smiling face in front of others
Can we truly trust one another

Not impressed unless they can really connect mentally
And not only for satisfaction that only lasts momentarily

The eyes are the key to ones soul
Look deep inside that person and see thier true role

Everyone in life is not for keeps
Every night I singly sleep

Choosing not to settle for less than I deserve
My full heart I have chosen to reserve

It's not in my physical description, but whats in my heart
My inner beauty is my true work of art

Just Once More

Just Once More

Lying here in this bed next to him
Wanting him to touch and love me until my knees go numb
Longing to feel his soft kisses on my neck
Loving me all the way down past the small of my back
His hands caressing my thighs as gentle as a feather
Making my senses alert and sensitive to his touch
Craving to feel him inside
Taking me to our special sensual place
Indulging into pure ecstasy
Falling asleep in his arms, awakening to his much desired kisses
But instead
I lay next to this man I love with every molecule of my body
Hurting, missing the love we shared
Both knowing we cannot be, not now
But the love we share is so powerful and keeps pulling us back
Now we lay here as two friends would
Pretending we don’t want to give in
Just once more…

Stimulation


Stimulation

His lips taste as sweet as chocolate strawberries
The love he continuously gives, my heart carries

Softly rubbing his sexy, clean shaven bald head
Knowing repeated eruption is not far ahead

While his juicy lips are gently massaging me
From my head all the way down to my feet

His hands slowly caressing, bringing sensations to new heights
Perfecting tongue wrestling fights

Stimulating each and every one of my senses
Licking up the fluids my body endlessly dispenses

Anticipating returning the favor
Each drop of him I truly savor

Loving each and every part of him
Until he feels complete numbness in his limbs

His muscular arms cradling my body to the best position
Forcing me into total submission

Following his lead
From his reactions I feed

Pure ecstasy refined
Memories I replay in my mind

AIDS-National AIDS Day



In loving memory of
Joe Hurlburt
 (Pictured on your left, the tallest one)
March 17, 1971 - July 9, 1997

AIDS

Aids took over and totally consumed his body
Causing him constant immeasurable pain
The pain was so great that he pushed away everybody
Until he was unable to maintain
He was no longer the brother I once knew
He had only himself to blame
This is the brother that taught me how to tie my shoes
He tortured himself in shame
He was scared to die but it was now a reality
All he wanted was to be loved
And now he was paying for his sexuality
He died feeling completely unloved
Except from his family and the people who really mattered
My mom had to watch her son slowly wither away
Her world was forever shattered
His death affected everyone around
I not only lost my brother but my best friend
Even though 13 years has passed, his presence still surrounds
The sorrow of missing him will never end
The memories I will never forget
The good and bad times I will always cherish
There is not a moment of regret
I still can’t believe his life on earth has been perished
I will hold his love in my heart forever
And the lessons he taught
His son never really knew his father however
His battle on earth has been fought

Good Morning All! Today is National AIDS day, a very important day for me since my brother succumbed to this horrible disease. People think they are invincible, just as he did. This is a very serious issue, please protect yourself. A moment of satisfaction could lead to a horrible death, one that I wouldnt wish upon my worst enemy.

Today

I chose this particular pic because its a view I am used to, sunrise in the DC metro area...And I am thankful each day I see this image...I actually pass the monument on my way toand from work :)

Today

Here one day, gone the next
It’s the time in between to reflect
Making each day joyous and fulfilling
Be open and willing
To take on each obstacle that comes our way
Not being lead astray
Cherish love in totality
Make happiness a reality
Stop wasting moments in sorrow
Look forward to tomorrow
For it is never promised
Let the beauty of today not be dismissed

Good Morning All! This is yet another reminder that we need to enjoy what is in front of us...today and stop relying on 2morrow...I JUST got some good news(As I was typing)...They are able to do the procedure...Its really risky and that terrifies me...But its a chance...So I am feeling a sense of relief right now eventhough he still has a long road ahead...I will be right there with him, battling this, encouring him...

Precious Life

Monet-Giverny


Precious Life

Life is so precious
It is something that should never be neglected

Savor each moment
As it is your last momentum

Every second that is past
Treat is as your last

Cherish time spent
Everything has something to represent

Take time and notice the small things
And see what it brings

Once the time is gone
There is no recalling

Always remember as you climb
God only gives us one lifetime

Free Falling

Free Falling

Sick and tired of stressing
Constantly assessing
Damage already done
And all that’s left undone
Wondering how I am going to make it
Not understanding how the pieces will to fit

Letting go

Even though the debts are still owed
Having faith that He WILL provide
Closing my eyes and opening my arms out wide
Feeling assurance in His calling
Letting completely go and free falling

 

Monday, November 22, 2010

Deep


Deep

My love for you runs deep within my soul
My worries and fears, your love continues to console

We have been through our share of adversities
And overcome all of our uncertainties

No longer plagued by doubt
Your love I never want to live without

Faith

Faith

Why do we worry and stress
Instead of awaiting God to bless

We make choices that have consequences
Blaming Him for our mistakes is our greatest offense

Why do we fight against His will
Instead of trusting His Word to instill

Faith that everything will work out just as it’s supposed to
And not always when and how we want it to

We need to learn how to let go
And realize that He is the One that is in control

All He asks for is our love and obedience
Pray at the altar with faith and confidence

Live out our purpose here in this life
And He guarantees us eternal life

With inner peace and unconditional love
Just build a personal relationship with God above
