Gray
The land of nowhere
Found tiptoeing
Between
Great heavy shadows
Holding hostage
Fearful what if’s
And the light
Bare naked brightness
Secrets once
Owned in terror
No more
Have power
Release
Peace
Freedom
Life

From a view

There’s layers to my depths
And depths to my layers
Arrangements of silence, sounds, letters, words
Building, stacking, mounting
One pause, one syllable, one moment at a time
Spinning out from
My soul’s innermost core
Bursting into life
The moment they touch air
Traveling through galaxies
Beyond the universe
Beyond time

You will tell everyone
How you prayed
And how I answered
Love,

Look!
You see?
When you serve me
I will put you in places
You could not otherwise go
I will place you
In palaces you can’t afford

One day it became
Crystal clear
In the split
Of a split second
My heart spoke
My purpose
God’s destiny
For what I am to be

Des yeux qui font baisser les miens, Un rire qui se perd sur sa bouche, Voila le portrait sans retouche, De l’homme auquel j’appartiens.
Quand il me prend dans ses bras, Il me parle tous bas, Je vois la vie en rose.
Il me dit des mots d’amour, Des mots de tous les jours, Et ca me fait quelque chose.
Il est entre dans mon coeur, Une part de bonheur, Dont je connais la couse.
-Edith Piaf

My little girl dreams
Are still cherished
By my woman’s heart
One day
Very soon
I know
They will be
My reality

And then the day came
When I stopped
I stopped
Dancing for a song
That never paid me dignity
And on that day
I said
I am significant
Then I reached out
And I took it
I took my worth
I took my grace
I took my respectability
I wrote my own song
This song
I can dance to
Proud

“Who will buy this wonderful morning? Such a sky you never did see!… Who will buy my sweet red roses?… Who will tie it up with a ribbon, and put it in a box for me?” – Oliver

Every story
I’ve ever lived
Recorded by my
Beating heart
Speaks no language
Man can decode
Unless he looks
Into my eyes
Those windows
To the pages
Of my soul
It would take
His lifetime
And then some
To read
Carefully
Through them all

You had my heart
From jump
‘Cause that’s what it did
When we met
It went jump
Love at first sight
Always sounded
Like a fairyfable
Then you arrived
I learned
It wasn’t make-believe
You were real

If I could bottle timeI’d bottleThe smoothness
Of my young beauty
Fresh on my facade
And only wear
Timely wisdom earned
That comes with
Fine lines
Gray hairs
Sagging breast & butt
Tucked away in my soul
Then again
Hidden inside
There’s be no testimony
Showcase God to the world
Of battles fought
Victories won
Knowledge learned
So instead
I’ll bottle time
Inside my soul & mind
Won’t matter
What the years tell
On my skin
Heart forever young
Then

Is my language
Running
Through my veins
Dripping
Off my fingertips
Born
To create
By my creator
Beauty
So many forms
Beholden

Don’t need you to be perfect
All I need is you to be the perfect man for me
Love me enough
To not want to live without my loving
You be the present & future
The one who makes my heartbeat sing
My smile glow
Secure in knowing you’re for real
No matter which way life goes

Gnawing soft insides out
Ulcers of regret
Mourning
Tidal waves of acid to the soul
Desperate despair
Devouring
Famine in the belly
Once gorged with love
