Quiet Time
Thinking becomes easy Time seems to slow down Blood seems to flow Evenly from head to toe This is my quiet time
Shut out to everything else One focus One mind One breath This is my quiet time
No sounds No distractions No feelings of obligations No limits This is my quiet time
No internet No music No kids No grown-ups acting as kids This is my quiet time
During this time There is nothing to fear All his thoughts I endeavor to hear As he talks Purification comes over my soul It’s only Him and I And this is His time This is my quiet time |
Connected
You weren’t my first love I never even looked your way In school from you I always strayed You appealed to me But I just figured With you I’d never be Undeniably I felt you were far beyond me You and me Man I just couldn’t see But now you and me Apart I just can’t see Your blood now runs through mine Dipped in wine Our relationship gets finer with time Whether I found you Or you found me It’s irrelevant really Because now in this world There’s not just you Not just me It’s simply we You have become a part of my lifeline Without you A part of me would just die The gift of poetry Yeah It’s my lifestyle

Tears of Prayer
I shed a tear last night Not because I wanted to, but rather I had to I shed a tear last night Knowing this love I have for you I shed a tear last night For the pain that runs within you I shed a tear last night Because of all that you are going through I shed a tear last night Blessed in my life to have had you I shed a tear last night Feeling lost for words and none to find I shed a tear last night Not knowing if your love again I would ever find I shed a tear last night Because it pains me to let you go I shed a tear last night Knowing by morning you would be gone I shed a tear last night As my sign became light

Turn the Page
Destiny had no place Everywhere I moved seemed to be erased To say the wrong thing It was just a matter of time No disrespect intended Just wasn’t feeling the ground Moving around Seemingly in circles Sometimes at a standstill Never once did I feel Those things you said you felt Often asked why But left with tears that filled my eyes Within those tears I wanted to drown Clown Big nose, big feet Mixed colors as I walked through the streets Yeah, that’s how I felt Out of place And if you seen me I’m sure you would have laughed But That’s because the outside you would’ve seen Missing the pain that seemingly blocked my dreams Felt as if defeat was my life style No matter where I turned I would never make it out Was I blind Was I losing my mind I couldn’t understand it Or maybe I just didn’t try hard enough What I didn’t see What I couldn’t see
As if I was buried twenty feet deep But then Reality set in with three simple words Turn. The. Page. See hardships we never plan They even make us feel less than a man A woman But one thing we have to know In this life the key is in our hands The saddest thing is We remain locked up Constantly looking at the key For fear of change So desperate to remain the same Not realizing that the same = no gain No new ground No new air That’s why we say life’s isn’t fair The truth is moving forward, is becoming rare So the question is What in your life is your page And are you willing to be strong Are you willing To turn the page!!!!!
