Shards of hearts

Vivid pictures are painted with a person’s actions, their effects are more profound than scriptures, actions have a voice which speak louder than a speaker. Reduce the noise to avoid seduction. Actions show us who people really are, look through the frosted glass to see who truly cares for your heart! Once you still your mind and reconnect with yourself to peer through the misted glass of seductive words, you will see scheming demons aiming at your heart. As they shoot their shot the glass breaks around you. It’s too late to flinch, too late to think. Your soul freezes as you watch your heart shatter like the glass, Shards of hearts fall to the floor exposing your soul to a pain that is so raw it almost cripples you!

Do you drop to your knees in a desperate attempt to gather the shards and stop the inevitable pain or do you stand, naked for the world to see your inner workings! Sometimes you need to lose yourself to find yourself again. Sometimes death of a way of life births a new way of life. Sometimes building from the rubble of destruction serves you well when building from the ground up. Don’t let this world ruin you, use the pain to push you further, just keep doing you.

Questions to a mother

Can I speak? Is what i asked my mother, and she said “as long as you have a voice to be heard”.
Can I love?  Is what I asked my mother, and she said “if you’re not looking for it and your heart is open to it”
Can I live? Is what i asked my mother, and she said “as long as God permits it”
Can I worship freely? Is what i asked my mother, and she said “yes you can, and don’t you let anyone tell you any different”
Is there life after death? Is what i asked my mother, and she said “son, you will just have to have faith”
Is there a God? Is what i asked my mother, and she said “look around you, take in all the beauty and that has been created, your answer is in the sky’s

I said this to my mother, “don’t you leave me in this world alone as i look to you for guidance and unconditional love. I look to you for inspiration and strength. I look to you when I can not see the way”
My mother turned to me and said, “son, all you seek, all that you desire, you will find in the hands of the Lord”

Sun rise and sun set

Sun rise and sun set,

I live from day to night on one breath,

Sun rise and sun set

Your eyes grant me life from the sunrise’s crest,

Sun rise and sun set,

I live each day with you intensely because I am not promised the next,

Sun rise and sun set,

Is when the stars will cease burning to admire your soul radiate its love,

Sun rise and sun set,

Everlasting as they seem, the two shall not outlast our loves beam,

So I will give thanks and continue to love and respect you for all eternity

You and I

Tender moments, we share

Intimate encounters, we cherish

Those eye watering laughs, we remember

Sweet kisses, I look forward to them

Nighttime cuddles, I hold on to

Life’s hardships, we embrace and overcome

The blessings in life, we give thanks

Rare moments, we capture

Our elders, we respect

People who tresspass against us, we forgive

Charitable people, We admire

The memories of you, I hold on to

My heart forever searching for you

Un-calm to calm

I’m am so uncalm,
Always hear alarms,
Thinking I’m in a safe place but always get harmed,
My friends say I’m rude but my family understand,
That this journey that I’m on is the making of a man,
The walls that serve to protect me are closing in,
Fear ruling my life and love can’t get in,
I am better than I was a year ago,
But still have a long way to go to let go of this ego,
Hiding behind my physicality like a wall constructed of Lego,
The real me lost inside a web of low self-belief, and I refuse to evolve,
The wall was bound to fall but I rebuilt it with foundations,
I didn’t know any better but now I feel whole,
Strong enough to with stand trials and tribulations,
Deep down I’m spiritual, I can speak now I’m lyrical,
Never been a zombie always been aware of the political,
Life had got to the point where I had to grow up,
Time was still moving and wasn’t waiting for me to clear my head,
Fear and love and the fear to love… I had them mixed up,
Realised what was what and all doubts are dead

Keep going

When things go wrong, as they sometime will
When the road you’re trudging seems all up hill,
When the funds are low, and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don’t you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns.
And many a great person turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out.
Don’t give up though the pace seems slow,
You may succeed with another blow.

Often the struggler has given up,
When he might have captured the victor’s cup;
And he learned too late when the night came down,
How close he was to the golden crown.

Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems far.
So stick in the fight when you’re hardest hit,
It’s when thing seem worse,
That you must not quit.

Dear lord

Dear God,

I’d first off like to thank you for my life and all you have created.

I have found one of your angels and beloved daughters.

I love her Lord. I thank you for your blessings and for your most perfect creation.

I promise to keep her happy.

Lord i ask you to keep her safe when i cannot.

Protect her in her dealings father and fill her soul with your love and presence.

I thank you for allowing us to be ready for love by the time we met.

Thank you because with out her i’d be lost.

Bless everyone in our life and everyone we run into.

Forgive me father for i am a man and makes mistakes.

Watch over her and guide her through life

Lord shower her oppourtunities and love

If its to be, please guide me back to her and her to me

If its not to be please give her strength, wisdom, love and an open to heart to accept it all.

I humbly thank you.

Wake up, wake up and see

Who’s wearing the most valuable dress?

Who’s betting the most and who is from “that family, and who looks the best,

Celebrating traditions we have long lost,

Hobbies have gone from photography to shopping,

Consumerism and extortion seems to be the norm, and nobody’s stopping,

Because nobody cares, just as long as they still get to wear their designer uniforms,

Worn by those who paid not knowing where their clothes were made.

The poor that stitch the latest trends are souls torn between eating or not,

Not deciding what to wear or will it make them  look good or not?

WAKE UP

Wake up and see,

The issues in society not what’s on TV,

Nightmares in the ghetto like babies born yellow with crack in their systems,

A mothers 37 hour labour, baby barely breathing,

She passes away without seeing her baby’s face,

All because she was badly beating, physically and mentally,

So the farther gets off scot free,

And when you try and get this message played on the stereo,

It gets banned from being played,

We’d rather hear about the party, the girls and the boys,

Who attract the girls with cars, money and dumb toys,

That they can’t take into the next life,

Little girls think twice,

And guys have more respect for women,

This isn’t just an isolated incident, this can actually happen,

Imagine a man treating your sister like this,

Worse off, your daughter like this, this could be your little girl one day

WAKE UP, open your eyes

A little of my story

I was tired of stressing over my own thoughts, so inside my own thoughts and I were at war, tried of blaming others for what I haven’t got, go hard or go homes the motto i fell for,  and when my results were different I was left in shock,. If I knew what my mind could do when I was as young as you, I wouldn’t be the man that stands before you, so I thank the most high, for the dark times and bright lights, for his highest blessing which is life, for the nights I thought I couldn’t get by, for waking up the next day and that shit was behind. For the angel that he dropped so I could pick her up, more up than she ever has, been then I fell over and she picked me back, up giving love, taught me to create my own luck.

I was tired of battling through life without love, I may of acted hard but steel isn’t what I was made of, but she saw right through that, loved me for me I knew that, took me a while to see her love as a true fact, Wild animal by nature but then I changed, exchanged my anger for love and became tame, I told her my history was a little political, I gave her the poor me the story was typical, egotistical young dumb individual, tried to be a big man and get a name, got into trouble and they chased me and i couldn’t get away, so I had to answer for my sins and got locked away. 8 years on, On the verge of giving up, my beautiful lady came along and showed me love, told me to be me, that way I’ll be free.

For all those who want to love but don’t have the courage to have blind faith to be loved, love shall set you free because true love is truth and the truth shall you free see please give it a chance and remember you need to believe you deserve love and your worth it. Love is for everyone and anyone, love yourself then you can love another and know my happiness.

God bless.

In my eye

True, pure, honest but far from innocent.

All your best parts and your flaws you are still my princess.

I never want you to cry,

Even if I die, know that I’ll love you for the rest of your life,

Forever and always, for all of time,

I’ll watch and guide you to happiness from the sky.
