Where love flows…
Today,
I want to lose my uncertainty
I want to bury my doubts,
I want to taste a love that lasts
And make a living through hope,
I want to run towards my fear
And give my dreams wings.
Today,
I want to run towards something
Not away.

We had moments that took to the wind,
We had laughter’s that got lost in the storm,
We had aspirations that sunk beneath the currents
We took to the waves in the wrong direction
We made choices that pushed the shores further away
Now we drown in our doubts as our lungs struggles to hold unto life.
If we could float up to the surface and just start all over again,
That would make a difference.
Downcast in doubts shadow?
Look up
Litters of blue hope
Arrays the day
Good news they say
Not so far away
Till a little,turn the soil
Deep down they say
Is where gold lives
Hold the rein, just a little tighter
The picture is nearer
Than when you first began
Downcast in doubts shadow?
Look up, light still shines.
Behind the bars of invisibility
She has been locked
Whirlwind of emotions
Delicate yet destructive
Wrestling within this iron barricade
Let her out so she can exist
Passed by but not seen
That invisible person
Let her out
Give her wings
She exists.

I have always enjoyed solitude. Taking long strolls in quiet neighborhoods or just sitting alone and thinking. I love being awake in the darkness dwelling on the peace and quiet the night time brings. My mind is always on an express trip going beyond the present and visible. Often times i’m an emotional mess,I have to take time away to regroup.
A couple of days back my mind became a tangled mess freestyling into nothingness, my schedule was too busy for a stroll and my nights became noisy so I went to a place I knew somehow I would find the peace that I sought.
One of the reasons I love going to the scriptures is because its so relatable.
So I opened up a psalm to read, it was like the words came to life jumping right at me. You see, this was a psalm I had read a couple of times but somehow on that day it got me like “for real?”,”How did you know what I was thinking?!”,”wait!!!thought it was just me”and on and on.
It opened my mind to see troubled and broken men who found grace in the face of I AM and I came to understand that there wasn’t a time I AM did not come through.
That alone sparked up my dose of confidence that when I get tossed in the wind admidst the rain, I could always find peace in the one that turns things in time and rhythm. I AM.

The earth is hard
It can’t be tilled
A little moist would do the drill
So we wait
For the birth the sky promised.
The barns are empty
Knees grow feeble
Tho hope be unstable
Still we wait
For the birth the sky promised.
Air goes dry
Throats goes sour
Lips crack up
But
Still we wait
For the birth the sky promised.
We know for sure
When the sky be full of rain
Everything is bound to change.
So hold on
Drop not your guards
Just a little while longer
And watch the cloud burst forth
With torrents of rain
To wash down the cracked tears of pain
Because
that’s what happens
When
The sky be full of rain.

The other day,
I bet the devil sat back
With a tall glass of wine
Legs crossed
With a smug on his face
As he watched with satisfaction
That ruddy-young-fair child
Step forward
With a sling and a stone
To raise down
An immovable wall.
You know,he must have heard a savior would come out of the house of that child.
Now if he could just get rid of that child he would be done with the savior.
*CHECK POINT*
his time must have settled
And frozen
For much more than a moment
Because his glass came crashing down
In symphony with the giants fall.
*he Lost*
Going back in time,
I still remember
The walling,
The screaming
And the confusion
When that decree was made
“Kill the male kids”!!!!
Somehow he got a wind
That divinity
Was planning something,
he really needed to outsmart HIM.
This time, he better not fail.
“Send the soldiers out, pull out the swords,slay them all”
He paced
Back and forth.
MOSES!!!
*he Lost*
And then he tried that old trick again.
You know,
It still baffles me every time I think of his crucifixion tactic,
He just couldn’t accept that
He had been defeated
A long time ago.
NOW!!!
Look where that led him.

Siting outside
Staring at nothing
Can’t believe its all over
The lonely nights I cried
Finally I can breath
Finally I can feel the sun
Finally I can enjoy life
The way I’m supposed to
The pains are gone now
I really can’t see the scars anymore
So let’s say,
time did the fading
Although,
Like an over washed rock
By the sea side I feel,
I’m glad
Finally I can breath
Finally I can feel the sun
Finally I can enjoy life
The way i am supposed to
It feels like another life time
I left them all behind
The waves has blown them
To a far away land
A
I am not afraid to break new grounds
Like the rose that grew from concrete LifeasChristy
Once there was a man,
A man of valor he was.
They say he bore
A scary face
Like an unknown beast.
I wonder if
The mask he wore,
Became over-worn
And never came off.
Then came the day
He went to war,
So great he fought
He hands became one
Cleav-ing to the sword.
I would have thought,
That a sword that cleaves
Would cause so much hurt,
Making one weak.
But
On he fought.

Do you ever wonder
Why we have to hurt
When we have a God
That loves us!!!
We love the sound of laughter
And the merriment of cheer
Maybe:
Our hearts would lose their tenderness
If we never shed a tear.
Maybe:
All the pain we are feeling
Is just the hurt before the healing
The dark before the morning
Maybe:
Once we feel
The waves of glory
All our pains
Would fade to memory
Or Maybe
I don’t know.
But I know this:
Just because we don’t feel him moving
Doesn’t mean He’s not there
At the end
He makes all things
Work together for good
If we but love
So let not the worries
Get the best of you
‘Cause right from the valley
He will see you through.
Happy first of November
Make the best of it
