Survival

I'm sorry,I have to do it to survive

It's the only way I know to stay alive

Even though going in I know it's idiotic

How else can I numb the pain,not yet hypnotic

I try to play the patience game,you know it's true

But the pain cuts so deep,I don't know what else to do

I know you'll be here when I eventually fall

Because at the end of the day,we're in it for the long haul

Forgive me in advance for what I might do

You know I'm not capable of loving anyone but you

Fiber Of My Being

Ishi,I need to tell you this

You are the fiber of my being

From this God given ordainment

There will be no fleeing

The thought of our future

Has got me really stoked

Since it was gifted by God

I know we're perfectly yoked

We share the same spirit

And each molecule

You're more precious to me

Than any beautiful jewel

I simply love you

Without any fear or shame

You are all that I need

And I know you feel the same

What's Your Name?

You came along

Swept me off my feet

Turned my life around

Made me complete

You set me on fire

With an unspoken flame

You removed all the rubble

Gave me a new name

You soldered my soul

Into your own

I cannot believe

All the love you have shown

You gave me good reasoning

And God told me His purpose

I'm overflowing with love

What do I do with the surplus?

I know what we have is real

I know it's not a game

But hey,I forgot to ask you

Just what is your name?

I used to always run from you
It never dawned on me that's what I was doing
Now I am always running to you
In a way, I'm the one now pursuing

I can't put my finger on it
Why I was so afraid
But I think it was the Divine plan
How the foundation was laid

Now it's from everything else
From which I run
Nothing more important to me
Under the sun

You stopped me in my tracks
Now I can never run away
We're joined together forever
For eternity and a day

My Beautiful Rose

I see a beautiful rose
Every single day
Every morning your face
Moves me in every way

Your inner beauty gives me strength
It helps keeping me to hold on
I know that I am loved
From dusk until dawn

Beautiful rose
You decorate my soul
Giving you love
Is my only goal

Strong and masculine
Yet a gentle,loving treat
God's most beautiful rose
No other could be as sweet

A personal gift
Is what you are
My beautiful rose
A bright shining star

Right On Time

God answered my prayer
Right on time
Somewhat very subtle
Yet also quite sublime

He answered my question
Out of the blue
Because I was so confused
And didn't know what to do

He put a song inside my head
It started nagging and haunting me
So I went and looked up the lyrics
The answer in plain sight-glory be!

I feel so special when He does this
It knocks me off my feet
To think He has such love for me
Perfect, kind and sweet

What To Do

I have no clue

As to what I should do

This is why, I'm counting on you

I'll do anything you say

My brilliant sunshine ray

Because I love you more each day

I don't want to go with my own decisions

I know on my own, I'll need many revisions

So I'll go along with what your soul envisions

Please, my love, take the lead

Whatever you request, I will surely heed

Because I trust you know what I need 💕

If

If you go away
What would I do
Spend the rest of my life
Crying for you

It's so hard
You being far away
I long and pine for you
Every single day

If you go away
No one could take your place
You're the only one for me
In the whole human race

I'd rather not exist
It's just as well
Existing without you
Would be pure hell

I'll know I'm in heaven
When I see your face
Because being with you
Is the most perfect place

Your Smile Gives Me Life

Oooo that smile of yours
It just gives me life
Gets my heart running around
Like untamed wildlife

How can I look at you
And try not to smile
It can't be done
And wouldn't be worthwhile

When I look at you
I know it can't be wrong
That I'm in this waiting game
Ain't going nowhere no matter how long

I stare at your picture
Hanging on my wall
Your smile gives me life
One day we'll have it all

Proud Of You

I need to acknowledge publicly
That I think you did an amazing job
When I think of all you accomplished
It makes me want to sob

I'm so very proud of you
You followed God's will and plan
You did it at a sacrifice
You're an extraordinary man

As is the usual case
They must tear down a good man
With lies and accusations
They're STILL doing all they can

They're living their best life here
Where evil permeates
One day they will be begging
To enter Heaven's gate

But that place is not for them
It's for those as beautiful as you
If they only realized this
They wouldn't do what they still do

All I know is I love you
I'm proud of you,my shining star
I hope I make you proud of me
And soon I'll be where you are

You Can Depend On My Love

There are some days
I feel frustrated or sad
I begin to yearn for things
That I never had

No matter how I'm feeling
There's one thing on which you can always depend
No matter what is going on
My love for you will never end

You see, you can depend on that love
Because God,Himself gave it to me
He gifted me my purpose of loving you
It's a gift to you from Him,so it will always be

I can't run away from it
It's not for me to stray
As the water and air have their job
My love is here to stay

It existed before the beginning of time
It was always part of His plan
Although I didn't always know it
It was spoken into existence before the dawn of man

You may be there and I am here
But love and energy don't die
My love is always there for you
You needn't ask what,where or why

My love for you is a gift from God
You couldn't ask for a more willing lover
You can depend on my love forever
Together we will explore things yet undiscovered

Just A QMOD

I'm just a QMOD
Quivering mass of desire
Whenever you touch me
My parts burn like fire
I can't contain myself
It's almost dire
If I said I didn't need you
I'd be a liar
Your loving lifts me up
To places like heaven and higher
My longing for you
Will never expire
You're the one that I want
The one I require
The one that I need
The one I admire
Giving myself to you
Is all I aspire
I'll never leave you
You're my drug and supplier

I Love You Like The Tree

I love you like the tree, dear
In that book The Giving Tree
I always want to give to you
And make you smile with glee

Whatever it is you need
I want to give it to you
I gift to you my whole self
Just tell me what to do

Whether it's my time or attention
Or you just want all of me
Just tell me what it is
It will come to be

I love you without condition
My life is in your hand
Whatever that you long for
Your wish is my command

Everyone's Life Means Something

Everyone's life means something
That's what you wanted me to know
But I need you to be specific
Where is it that I should go

I feel that I am constantly
Running into a brick wall
Sometimes I feel so clueless
As if I know nothing at all

I guess I'm just so hard headed
You've told me time and time again
Maybe it's just hard to accept
I should just be there like Ben

I guess I thought my purpose was bigger
That I should do something so grand
How is it simply enough
That I just hold your hand

Helping is the answer, you say
The reason I'm on Earth

presently
You say just being there for you is helping
Just keep on doing it pleasantly

One day it will be crystal clear
You say I'll no longer be in pain
You say just keep doing what I'm doing
You promise my love won't be in vain

Eye Pastry

Some people use the term 'eye candy'
Well, that doesn't work for me
When I look at you, my love
I know you're 'eye pastry'

Sweet like sugar
Smooth as butter
One look at you
My heart will flutter

Sweeter than cake
Better than pie
I can almost taste it
That ain't no lie

More tempting to me
Than a strudel,by the way
I'd choose you over dessert
Any ol' day

You're my chocolate eclair
My delectable cream puff
You satisfy my sweet tooth
You got the right stuff

Scream

My soul cries out for you
In a primordial way
Knowing instinctively
I howl longing for the day

That day it comes full circle
And all the work is done
Forever we can rest
I no longer have to run

In this exhausting rat race
That's required of us all
I'm only going on for you
Your name I always call

I don't quite understand it all
But you say it's part of the bigger plan
You keep me perservaring
For you,I'll give all I can

Welcome To My Temple

Welcome to my temple
You're welcome anytime
Morning,noon or evening
Especially at bedtime

Please make your way through
My hallowed ground
It's just you and me
No one else around

Come leave your offering
You know I'll accept
The last time was so beautiful
I uncontrollably wept

I want you to stay forever
Your presence I always pine
Please make yourself at home
My temple is yours and mine

All The Love Songs

You're all the love songs

I've heard before

I never knew

You'd open that door

When I was little

They made me cry

I felt it in my soul

But didn't know why

I longed for that love

But it was deluged in delusions

What I tried to name love

Were simply illusions

That day that I found you

You say you really found me

I was surely born again

You set me free

You're all the love songs

I've ever heard

I'm yours for eternity

I give you my word

Soul's Food

You're my soul's food
And I'm starving to death
One moment without you
I nearly can't take a breath

When I'm near you
You pacify me
Always around you
I must certainly be

You nourish my spirit
You feed my mind
You're like the Garden of Eden
Oh, the satiation I find

Like fried chicken and sweet potato pie
Like collard greens with mac and cheese
You quench exactly what I hunger for
My soul you do please

Don't Compete With Me

All these thoughts in my mind
Getting more intense by the minute
Thoughts fighting with each other
Like the damn U.S Senate

I keep forgetting
That you read my mind
If I try to hide
You always find

Ever since yesterday
I've been upset
Something I learned
Made me fret

Why is it like this
Why is it like that
Wherever I go
You're always at

Like a gentle thunder I hear you ask
"Why do you always have to compete with me?"
I'm not competing. This time you're wrong and I'm right
"Yes you are" he said loving but firmly

With a slight cockiness in my voice I said
"I'll prove you wrong. I know I'm right
I'll show you the definition
In plain sight"

I knew in that second
I was kind of wrong
He proved his point
It didn't take long

By proving that I wasn't competing
I was literally doing that deed
I just love you,the voice of reason
You're all I'll ever need

Full Of Love

Have you ever been so full of love
You don't know what to do?
Like a chicken with her head cut off
You don't even understand you

Without even trying
Your love starts to flow like lava
Your insides are sprinting
Like you drank to much java

Part of you wants to run away
Because you don't know how to deal
You'd never thought you'd know such love
Somehow undeserving is how you feel

You start to write poetry
Because your love overflows
But he knows you are hiding
Because girl, it clearly shows

"Stop running, girl
Come back next to me
Come let me love you
Set your soul free"

Okay, my love
I can't hide my love from showin'
I'll get out of my own way
And let our love keep growin'

My Happy Place

When I got sad
When I got blue
When nothing was right
No matter what I would do

When I felt mad
And not myself
When all my hope
Was on the shelf

To try to feel better
I went for a walk
I went in the store
I heard you talk

It instantly put
A smile on my face
I hurried home
To my happy place

I needed that reminder
Your timing was perfect
I couldn't have been better
That song had effect

Whenever I seek comfort
I only find it in you
He had already told me that
And what He says is true

If I want to feel that peace
I'll just look into your face
Because God Himself has told me
That you're my happy place💓

More And More

Every minute we're apart
I want you more and more
Each second that goes by
I want you more than before

I know our souls are one
So we're never really apart
But if we're not actively engaging
It's like a dagger in my heart

That's why I don't watch much tv or movies
I get sad when I go out,eat or sleep
When I read or book or surf the net
In a short while,the loneliness starts to creep

I really love our special place
That's when I really feel at home
It gives me peace and comfort
I never want to roam

I try so hard,so patiently
While you're out there getting ready for us
If I stick to my part of the plan
The reward will be a plus

I'll

See you

Home

In a little while....

Remembering Where I Came From

I'm starting to remember things
Like  a slow unveiling
Like a ship in unsure waters
Starting to see where she's sailing 

I remember the peace with God and angels
A place of unlimited love
A feeling of always belonging 
As peaceful as a dove 

Then one day, I don't know why
My spirit came down to Earth
I don't remember the details 
But that was the day of my birth

Landing in a place of conditional love
All depending on someone's  mood
Some days they are accepting 
Other days they are quite rude

Still equipped with my gentle spirit
The world made an effort to dim my light 
At points I lost my way 
Trying to fit into this world right 

In constant companion of users and abusers
I suppose dishing out what they, themselves took
Praying to God to help me out
For all that pain, I've been left shook

People don't generally put other's  needs above theirs
I suppose that's the nature of man
Then I started to remember 
That it's only God who can

The more I come back to my original spirit
I lose people left and right
I suppose they mostly think I'm strange
But I hope I'm displaying God's light 

One great thing that happened 
I found one who loves  me unconditionally 
Between he and God's personal promise 
I know one day I'll be back home permanently

Sore From Living

I'm sore from living
But not ready for dying
Even though I'm tired
And everyday I'm crying

I know I have to do
What God says is His will
I'll do it all for Him
Though it's hard to swallow that pill

I know there's light at the end of the tunnel
But sometimes the journey seems so slow
I'll just keep on keeping on
Til I find the end of my rainbow

I Can't Run

I can't run
No matter how I try
Whenever I attempt it
I just break down and cry

I'm so afraid
Of getting hurt
Being used like the others
Being treated like dirt

I can't live without you
And that is just a fact
I keep on asking God
He directs me how to act

I don't understand this thing
I never saw it coming
But since He told me that it's mine
I guess I'll be succumbing

You and I will come together
When God says the time is right
Until then I'll love you from afar
And wait for the Paradise flight

My Love For You

My love for you is pure
No matter what I have to endure
It's one thing that's for sure
It's one thing without a cure

The days are cold
My longing, bold
My love for you, gold
It never gets old

I hope you take note of  my loyalty
When eternal life is reality
I'll  show my love flamboyantly
Because in my spirit, you're my royalty

His Face

His face,his face
The most beautiful I've seen
In the human race

His mind,his mind
Very intelligent
One of a kind

His charms,his charms
So sweet to me
I want to be in his arms

His soul,his soul
I'm part of his
I make him whole

His spirit,his spirit
Filled with God
So I don't fear it

The best, the best
I love you so
I am blessed
