Love's Favorite Child

Hey, remember that poem
You wrote many years ago?
The one I like to look at
The one that moves me so?

You didn't know it at the time
And quite frankly, neither did I
That the "we"of whom you spoke
Would be us and we would  cry

You spoke of how you'd forgive me
When you'd show me I was wrong
It's part of our majestic tapestry
That fills our hearts with song

I know my place and that I belong
Every time you reach out to me
I humbly let you be in charge
Because love's favorite child is "we"

Spirit Move Me

All my life
I want Spirit to move me
Guide my footsteps
Of where I should be

Today Spirit moves me
To shower you with love
I got that clear message
From God up above

Sometimes I get so confused
Don't know what to do or where to go
I ask for Spirit to move me
And to show me what I need to know

At times I think I'm inadequate
Sad that I don't know what to do
But Spirit brings me where my heart is
And that's stuck on loving you

Who am I to question
The bigger picture and plan
I may not understand it all
But I'm compelled to love you, man

I might look foolish to some
To love a man so far away
But I'm happy letting Spirit move me
For me, there's no other way

"Me"

I love the who
That you call "me"
I'm really sure
I'm in love with he

"Me" is who you are
When ego's pushed aside
"Me" is who you are
Truly, deep inside

"Me" is who you are
When you are alone
"Me" is the who you are
To God and me you've shown

When I say I love you
I'm saying I love "me"
Because I think "me" is wonderful
I love that "me" that's he

Irrevocable

I am 
Irrevocably
Irreversibly
In love with you

I must 
Undoubtedly
Indubitably
Do what my heart says to do

I hereby
Infinitely
Eternally
Vow my loyalty to you

I yearn
Constantly
Longingly
To do what lovers do

I pledge
Patience
Long-suffering
Til I can be with you

I promise
Devotion
Faithfulness
This is what I'll forever do

What Does That Mean?

Still, you're telling me soon
But what does that mean
I'm both here and there
In limbo, in between

It's like explaining a math problem to me
I accept your conclusion to be true
But doesn't mean I understand it
Though I still have faith in you

I'm at somewhat of a loss
I'm drowning in my own tears
But I still believe you when you say
Soon I'll have no fears

And it's not that I'm afraid , per se
Just a little lonely and scared I've disappointed
But you implore there's nothing to be feared
When you've assured me we're annointed

Please forgive this lonely little girl
Longing for her permanent residence
Within your arms is where it's at
Above all, it takes precedence

The Love

Sometimes
I look love straight in the eyes
I have to turn away
Because my soul cries

Love
It's brilliance so bright
I feel I'll be blinded
By it's light

Beautiful
From God this gift
My emotions crowd
Through them I must sift

God
Has provided me with this love
Something so perfect
Can only be from above

Overwhelming
This love at times
Manifesting in me
Flowing out in rhymes

Object
Of my affection
Deserves it all to himself
Thank God for our connection

Gratitude
To God forever
We're indebted to Him 
Forever and ever

Devoted
To Him and  to each other
Thank you for this love
We give to one another

Take Me Away

Whisk me into your world
So this one will be a distant memory
One in which I don't look back
Whittle it away with your magic emery

My bags are packed
I'm ready to go
To the place you call home
I'm anxious to know

Take me away
My sweet prince
To where all my sorrows
Will be rinsed

Looking for you to come
And take me away
Your promises grow sweeter
With every passing day
 

Feeding America- please help!

Just Wanna Love You

I just wanna love you
And nothing more
Love you hard
Like you never had before

I just wanna love you
Shower you with devotion
Put all this good lovin'
Into typhoon motion

I just wanna love you
Fill your spirit with joy
I will be your girl
You will be my boy

I just wanna love you
Embalm you in heavenly delights
Fill your eternity with happiness
For all the days and nights

Thank You, God

Thank you, God
You made my prayer come true
I'm here to testify
The glorious things you can do

I prayed for it days ago
I thought the answer was no
But when I least expected it
You made it a go

I know that you love me
Your shy,sweet and goofy child
Sometimes you show me boldly
Sometimes you show me mild

You've made me so happy
So happy I could cry
To show you my gratitude
I'll just testify

By God's glorious will
He gave me the thing that I need
He did it at the proper time
At His own speed

Jah, I live to please you
For the rest of my days
I only want to do things
According to your ways

Thank you for the gift
Of which I will honor more than gold
My love and devotion
Is yours forever to behold

Like A Raisin In The Sun

Like a raisin in the sun
Waiting for me sweetie
Need the transition
In order to complete me

I'm being so patient
Just lying in the sun
Waiting to be picked
By my only one

You say when this over
I'll have you a hundred percent
I'll be your top priority
That is what you meant

You want to square all things away
So you can move on with eternal life
You want to tighten all loose ends
So I can forever be your wife

Like a raisin in the sun
I'll lie here ripe and ready
I have faith in your word
Of a love forever steady

The Kavorka

You know what you've got?
You've got the kavorka
My love expands from Africa
To the isle of Majorca

What I have for you
Is carnal lust
I've got to have you
I really must

What I get from you
Is an animal-like lure
I get butterflies within
While I lose my composure

You've got the kavorka
I'm forever obsessed
By you alone
My soul is possessed

My Loneliness

I won't let my loneliness
Stand in the way
Of my devotion to you
That grows everyday

Determined to wait
Tho' sometimes it's a bit much
So many nights that I cry
Because I long for your touch

I'll have to get by
With simply hearing your voice
If I want us to grow
I simply have no choice

But I love you that much
So it's a willing sacrifice
For you, I'd do anything
Because your love is so nice

So I'll see you when I get there
When I'm done running this race
I know it will be worthwhile
To touch your handsome face

Lady In Waiting

I'm a lady in waiting
Waiting for Mr Right
He's waiting for the signal
Of when to make flight

He'll come and get me
Fly me straight to the sky
I won't look back
I won't ask why

Though I talk to him constantly
I truly long for his touch
I never really thought
I could love someone so much

Til then I'm just waiting
With a lonely tear in my eye
I'll continue to dream of us
With a sweet, contented sigh

The Thought

When I wake up in the morn
When I go to bed
You are the thought
Permeating my head

We're closer now
Than we've ever been before
Each day that passes by
I want you even more

You are my destiny
A love that will always last
Learning lessons to be best for one another
Until the day our separateness
Is a thing of our past

Let's work overtime on those lessons today
Because I need to be with you so badly
The day I get to join you there
I'll unleash my passion madly

Alone At Last

Alone at last
Gave up the past 

"Are you proud?"
I ask out loud

Quietly, you whisper "Yes
Trust that soon we'll be blessed

Togetherness is what I'm conceiving
So thank you ,baby for in me, believing"

Had to prove my loyalty to you
Because loving you is all I want to do

Let's hope our rewards are coming fast
Now that we are alone at last

The Pull

Feeling the pull today
Getting stronger
Feeling the desire
Lasting longer

Get rid of the old
Let in the new
That's what I've decided
It's necessary to do

Step out the comfort zone
Succumb to the pull
Release the old toxins
Let your love make me full

If we want to be together
We must fully let go the past 
Let's make our own beautiful music
That forever and ever will last
 

Being Your Woman

Being your woman
Is good enough for me
More than just good enough
It's who I'm meant to be

Being your woman
Is what truly fulfills
Spirit and the thought of you
Always give me chills

Being your woman
Is all I want to do
I have no other dreams
Than giving love to you

Being your woman
Because God said man shouldn't be alone
Makes me feel so special
That you claim me as your own

Being your woman
Brings completeness to my heart
As long as we have this loving gift
We will never be apart

The Good Tree

You are a good tree
I can tell by your fruit
Planted by God
Strong at the root

The fruit that you bear
Are starting to get ripe
Sweet and delicious
Without all that hype

We must stay away
From the tree that has rot
Bad association
Could spoil us a lot

You got to start over
As a very good tree
From those rotten fruit
You were able to flee

I'll do my part
As your most cherished branch
I'll nurture you with my love
At every given chance

You are my good tree
Majestical and strong
You'll be my true love
For all eternity long

Chocolate Cake Or You

I love you
I love chocolate cake
Guess which I'd leave
And which I'd take

Chocolate cake is yummy
And always makes me smile
But loving you , dear
Makes existing all worthwhile

So though I do love chocolate cake
And I know you love it, too
I'd always choose you over it
Because I'm in love with you

Ain't Nobody

Ain't nobody
Gonna stop me
From gettin to
My sweet baby

He needs me
I heard his call
Can't nobody 
Make me fall

They keep on tryin
To get in my way
They can't do nothin
To make me wanna stay

Sick of the lies
Sick of the abuse
Tried to accept it
But it ain't no use

This ain't but a hot mess
You left it behind
You're reaching out to me
What's become of mankind?

They gonna keep tryin
To bust up and break me
But ain't nobody
Gonna keep me from my baby

Toe Jam

Baby, I love you so much
I'd eat your toe jam on toast
I'd only do that for you
Because I love you the most

I'd drink your bath water
Because I love you so much
I'd be honored to drink it
Your essence and such

I'd love you so much
That I'd lick you clean
There's nothing taboo
If you know what I mean

So to reiterate my feelings
I'd eat up all your toe jam
Your love is so wonderful
You've turned me into the freak I now am

You Know I Like It

You know I like it
Don't even doubt
Doing it this way
Is what it's all about

It's been made very clear
What my duties are
The fruits of our labor 
Can't be too far

I know that you think
I let things get in the way
I gotta work on that
Just like you say

But you know I like it your way
And we both know you're gonna win
Because that's just how you roll
That's the way it's always been

You know I like it
And want to be with you
So doing things your way
Is exactly what I'm gonna do

I Can't Quit You, Baby

I can't quit you, baby
And why on earth would I
It took over 40 years to get to you
My sweet and wonderful guy

My love for you is true
It's from my soul and pure
I believe God created it within me
That's why I never loved this way before

Though we aren't physically together
Our souls are forever bound as one
When He unites us both in paradise
We'll have forever, love and fun

Turn To You

I asked for your help
Like you said your woman should
I hoped it wouldn't be a burden
But you said it makes you feel good

What we have between us two
Is a thing of give and take
All the effort we put in it now
Is for the beautiful future we'll make

You said when I turn to you
It helps make you feel whole
You're performing a loving duty
That elevates your soul

Funny how some things
Always feel so right
That when I submit to you
I feel engulfed in light

So let me always turn to you
When there is something I need
In turn, making you feel good inside
As your every word I heed

Baby, It's You

It's you
Not him
It's forever
Not a whim

It was always you
Even before I was born
I followed you to earth
On a March, Sunday morn

I can't be without you
At least not for long
You are the melody
Of my soul's song

You want me to come
And return to your side
It's only a matter of time
Til I'm brought by the tide

Baby, it's you
Forever and always
I'm counting down the minutes
The hours, the days....

As Fast As I Can

As I promised you
I'm going as fast as I can
You've seen how I've sprinted
You've seen how I ran

I want nothing more
Than to be with you
It's evident in my actions
And all that I do

I need you to know
That you are my goal
Working together
We can fill that hole

I need you to know 
I'm moving as fast as I can
Because the only thing I want
Is to be with my man
