The brutality of the SELF,
I am scared of dealing with MYSELF,
Dealing with my own INNER PAIN.
I can no longer shut it out;
the universe isn't making it any easier
for me to stop from dealing with it.
HIS in charge of this journey,
He's removed them all from my LIFE.
The SELF love,
Becoming One with my self.
God you're in charge,
If I didn't believe in YOU,
I wouldn't have heard the words,
"OPEN YOUR EYES"
I am left with just ME?
Being by myself is something frightening.
GOD you said I shouldn't be frightened.
That you will be with me.
You want me to show more kindness
to myself.
That TODAY I become my own
Best friend I concentrate on ME.
I respect MYSELF, Love and be kind to myself.
Thank you GOD for allowing,
these great prophets to open my eyes.
My weary heart that's been rejected
So many times as well,
You bring me into a world,
Where people crave off my emotions,
Sending me off to run away
From being with MYSELF.
I can not allow anyone to make
me feel less of a person,
that I should create happiness
For MYSELF.
My acceptance of myself,
my low self esteem will be GONE.
With loving MYSELF more,
And knowing God’s unconditional
Love reassures me that I won't
Be in this LIFE in pain,
But I'll be in a place
Of love,peace,serenity and kindness,
Generosity, strength, blessings.
Acceptance of the SELF.
I can’t sleep at night. The suffering is eating me up
From inside out.
God why the tears. Why the suffering that’s lying upon my soul.
Do you hear me God?
Do you hear the echoes of my cries?
God you showed me in Job all the things I am going through,
The suffering the pain of his soul, his body withering.
God you heard me then are you still with me.
Are you close by making preparation?
God why the tears.
God I know my pain is internal, an emotional up roar
That’s never fixed, never shaken.
God please hear my cries today,
Bring peace to my weary soul.
Amen?
AN: This poem is something that I am currently feeling, it's something that I am struggling with emotionally & spirituality. Please be careful how you comment on this poem.
The words that's been on most of our lips and minds in February.
Some of us go out of our way to make this one-day in February memorable for their partner.
You know I've realized not just now, but before I started to celebrate this day with people I've loved.
I'd go out of my way to make someone else's day epic, do the whole flowers, chocolates and dinner the whole Valentine's Day celebration.
But that doesn't proof anything to me about what Valentines Day says about love.
Does Valentine or St. Valentine was about a guy who lost his life due to someone he truly loved.A tragic fateful love story.
Love to me is someone who loves me not for what I can do, but for the love I have for him or her.
Yet that too also doesn’t proof much.
It’s two years ago I wrote this poem about love.
Then I went to search deeper, I wanted to know what God says about love. Until I came across one of my best scriptures in the book of Corinthians chapter 13.
"4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, and it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, and always perseveres.
8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. "
My own words love is kindness not just for one day on Valentines Day where we put out anger aside.
Love doesn't envy. No jealousy should be inside you. Its not boastful it holds no evil, it hasn't have an ego. Love should be equal, honorable, loyal, trustful, and respectful.
Love should be everything that comes out of you.
In securities isn't love.
Hatred isn't love.
Like they say there’s a thin line between love and hate.
Love should be gentle, freely given.
I believe love conquers all.
Why just show your loved one that she or he is loved on the 14th of February 2012, why not love yourself more each day so that when you with the one you love they'll know they are loved by you.
It will be in your eyes that glow that smile. Everything about them is love.
Love is universal, its something we all want in this life because without it we would feel that we lack something within us.
God is love. He loves us no matter our faults or mistakes.
Sometimes I wonder what if I do something wrong would my girlfriend forgive me. Will she accept that's who I am? And love me no matter what.
She might not, but I would know God's love is forever and infinity.
He loves me unconditionally that's why I love that scripture.
Ever wondered why at weddings after couples to be wed have this reading done.
1 Corinthians 13:4-7
"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, and it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, and always perseveres."
Like the song by Brandon Heath, Love Never Fails.
Love is not proud
Love does not boast
Love after all
Matters the most
Love does not run
Love does not hide
Love does not keep
Locked inside
Love is the river that flows through
Love never fails you
Love will sustain
Love will provide
Love will not cease
At the end of time
Love will protect
Love always hopes
Love still believes
When you don't
Love is the arms that are holding you
Love never fails you
When my heart won't make a sound
When I can't turn back around
When the sky is falling down
Nothing is greater than this
Greater than this
Love is right here
Love is alive
Love is the way
The truth the life
Love is the river than flows through
Love is the arms that are holding you
Love is the place you will fly to
Love never fails you
---------------------
Love is out there; all you have to do is open your heart to the possibility of it.
It’s free as a bird, no price to pay.
If God's loves for us are free. Why should we have one day in our lives to tell our loved ones that we love them? "I Love You" once I said those words I held it true.
Universally today is about love. Enjoy it, embrace it and no matter if you far or near from your loved ones today just know you're in their thoughts. Those fighting for the safety of their countrymen, those working far away. Even those close by.
Underneath a willow tree
a young lady came one night
And sat underneath it,
For years since she was a little girl
She came to this exact spot.
For years this willow tree has
Never carried any leaves,
a lifeless tree, but underneath it
She found comfort,
She found herself underneath
That spot,
For the first time in years after
The young girl dressed in a red dress,
Asked for something.
Something she never knew
Or thought could come true,
She prayed that night the young lady
Came prepared, she didn't come
There to shed tears,
But she came to make peace with
What's wrestling within her spirit.
God says you who believe in my name will have a heart filled with peace.
She went on her knees as she looks
Up to the sky,
Her hands folds together as she
Cries out, "Does anybody hear me.
God if you their please I need your help.
I'm a lost girl yearning to be loved and understood, something I've never found at home. Just maybe I'm hoping someone would come rescue me from the life I've lived, the pain and the heartache. Some days I don't know if its me looking back in the mirror.
Every day I walk around and I can see all the brokenness but still on they go with their private lives as they hide their silent cries." She starts to sop even harder then she's ever had before.
"God please help me here my cry. I want to change, I want to be complete in your love. I want to be able to stand up and say I'm loved and that I love myself." Tears was rolling down as her cries stretch high above the tree tops that birds came to sit on this willow tree that didn't have any leaves.
Sometimes God use the extraordinary things to make us see that he can use a bare willow tree.
That was the tree of life.
The tree the young girl came to each and everyday and found her peace by
Letting God be her savior.
And go with me, or you stay and wait for eternal life later.”
The boy stood he have to make a choice,
Its either he goes now, but he heard her cry once again.
“Sir I love her she is all I had. We grew up never
leaving each other side.”
The guard looked passed the young man’s
Shoulder and saw a girl on
A lonely bed in a room where she is
Strapped to a bed. The guard felt his
Eyes wet as a lonely tear fell down his face.
“Son you should go back, be with her till
she is okay to let you go.”
The young man grabs the guard and hugged him.
“Thank you.”
He turned around and walked away from the light.
Away from the crystal gate that was waiting
On his return.
This is a story of what love can do,
Even if you don’t believe in the illusions
Our minds create for us, but living
Through visions which I was gifted with
As young child, I always knew
That this girl is going to find her faith
And let him go home.
My Entry For Poetry Potluck Week #43 , “Life in Free Verse!
“If the people we love are stolen from us, the way to have them live on is to never stop loving them. Buildings burn, people die, but real love is forever.”
His love has carried me through the darkest hours Of my life, When I couldn’t see far beyond The distant shores, When Hell was hanging over my head, I knew its either I swim to that shore or give up trying. As I hear this singing voices far beyond As my eyes could see, Nothing, But I know I heard the voices, So beautifully as the words cling to me, Love lifted me, When nothing else could, Love lifted me. It’s in that moment as the darkness of hell was washed away, I found my head under water, But I saw a bright light from deep down as I look up, Trying hard to catch air in my lungs without, Any warning I saw a hand reaching out to me, A vision of a beautiful angelic angel, As the words came back, Love lifted me When nothing else could, God send out his angels to save a wreck like me. In his eyes I was someone worthy to be loved and saved From the chains of the past.
As I walked down a lonely path,
Struggling to find my foot on the spiritual path,
Lost in my depression and my own understanding,
I come upon a poem written by my
Surrogate mother CherryOnTop,
Her words reached a deeper level
Of what christ can do for me
And also be for me,
She inspires me with her words,
She took me under her wing
When I needed it most,
I believe in destiny,
That God has made me reach out
To this amazing being
I thank my Father up above
For showing me in her direction,
I believe I've found a Jewel,
Thank you Lord, for showing her to me alone.
When one’s heart is filled with materialism,
When one has only faith within its own strength, To have the world within his hands, To have ambition, fame and wealth.
Within him still something unclaimed, But still remain a place so vacant, Unfilled by its highest earthly claim.
Its then Jesus reached out his hand, “Come seek my love”, Jesus said, I left the world of all its materialism Behind me, To follow Jesus All The Way.
We believe in so many things
In the seen and unseen,
We believe in destiny, soul mates, kindred spirits,
But where does our faith come from,
Where do we get enough courage to believe?
In something unseen.
To believe in His Divine Love,
In His Comfort, In His Strength,
All these things are hidden from eyesight,
But within Us, He Lives.
That is where our faith comes from,
Where our Faith in Him who Died four our sins
That is where faith leads me,
To believe in something that is there
But it is something I feel within.
Deep down in our hearts of heart
We rely on our faith that our paths
Will one day cross our soul mates?
Two lost souls that is currently on
A journey of its own,
But yet they’re Faith in meeting
Doesn’t decipher because they believe
In the Divine Love of His Spirit
That dwells in each of us. 10/05/2011
“When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be.” – Lao Tzu
All the pain one endures
Sitting with all the sadness
The anger, resentment within one self,
When we get to that startling epiphany
Of now I have carried on too long
By dwelling on the painful torture
Of the past, of recreating the pain
People inflicted upon my soul.
As I stand by the end of my journey
The end of the new life I could endure.
Circling around on what I have had,
What I have lost, when I let go
Of what I am, of what I once was,
The love I stopped feeling,
The hurt, the brokenness
I become what God wants me to be
I become what I might be,
I become the woman who has strength
I become the philosopher that knows
Where she is going,
No more just a passer by
Or a drifter, but standing
On the holy ground that lead me
To who I can be again.
