When love is not enough

Abandon in the shadow

The heart slowly dies

The taste of regret

Lingered

crying out

When love is not enough

to save a ravage soul©

As I write

You pull out of me all the emptiness and sorrow that binds my tongue….

I’m Growing up Daddy

Daddy, I wish you’d come back to me and mommy someday!
Things haven’t been the same since you left last May.
You see, my mommy is sad with always a tear in her eyes
I think she misses you and it often makes her cry.
There’s so many things that I wish you could see
I’m growing up daddy, and you’re missing the best part of me.

Rage of Glory

Follow closely
In my footstep
In rage of glory
Carry your own sunshine
Tucked in the corners
I see darkness ahead©

The Heat of Desire

Listen to your heart they say!
but is that really true I asked myself
Can one deny the flesh long enough
To make sense of what the heart is saying
I want to believe my heart!
The quite murmur of love
The distant thunder of two heartbeats
Melting into one, the tender kisses on flushed cheeks
Yes! That is the feeling of love
For me to have and to cherish.
Yet! I wanted more, maybe the feeling of my skin
Flushed crimson hot, like lava bubbling
In my veins, the strain of my breast
Echoing for release
I want to feel my soul melting
Like butter sculptures in the heat of summer.
For once, I wish not to listen to my heart!
Instead, I’ll go with fire,
Emanating from within my folds
Hungry for the touch, melting with the heat of desire.
For now I’ll banish all thoughts
And react in the moment.
Releasing my passion to burn beneath
The skins of the world,
Scorching it with the heat of
Forget-me-not!©

I’m Forgiven

I stand on the edge of despair
Eyes cast down

I gave up sometimes
Fearing I might not make it

But I keep holding on

Each day, I cried!
Deep dark tears

Emptying my soul
I stumbled, falling, grasping

I keep holding on

I stand, beneath
The shadows of sin

And there, I cried!
My face masking
The pain that ripped at my heart

Deep, dark pain
Filling my soul with emptiness

I tried to remember
A scripture I once knew

The Lord is
My Shepard I shall not want
He maketh me!
To lie down in green pastures
He restoreth my soul!

I felt hope
Stirring within me

So I hold on

I knelt
Eyes to the ground
Praying, Seeking,

And there on my knees
He restoreth my soul!

I cling to Him

And with a heart of forgiveness
He set me free
~
I am crying now
But there’s no pain
No sorrows, no doubt
Only tears of Joy

I’m redeemed
Lifted up
I’ve found my savior

I’m free
To rest in his arms

Now I knelt
Eyes lifted towards heaven
And with a shout of victory

I know I’ve been forgiven
I know I’m in is presence
I know I’ve been set free©

In Your Arms

In your arms
I’ve felt eternity
Slipped through

The days
Shifted
Time
lost
Among the stars,

I waited
In your arms
And felt your soul
Naked
Resting
Against mine

Time stood still©
