Crawling out slowly

CRAWLING OUT SLOWLY

I stretched forth my hand toward my forehead
"Whence my sight befall the extreme
As my feet landed on waters?"
Frozen as I floated
The waters heated my feet
Till I stole through sticky trees

A wanderer as I am
I held closely my sight
As nature was compelled to pull me back
In spite of the mutual defense I required

Until my watch struck right
There was nothing left for my heart to tell
For its stories remained hidden
For this my lone heart became coy

Onward, the ground felt my foot
By that step I took
As winds blew vehemently and acrimoniously
Through the deserts, arid rains and feathery winds
As the bank of the Jordan
Dry was my coy heart

Behold, my sight was that I freed
It came out of a prison's depth
So it bore the light of the heights
As it stilled the shadows
And closely, I pushed them aside

Suddenly, a flower rose a fruit
With edges as the Mississipi's
Driven out of sight, I halted to listen to its words
"From my beauty, I am mature..."
Ripened as red tomato ketchup
A smile spilled along my lips

In no time
I watched closely whilst my legs carried me
Before the fruit
I held it, and out emerged a life;
The woman who is the night before my smile
The Eve of my smile
Lest i bit the fruit,
Whence I yielded treasure?

I Will Bless You

 I Will Bless You I will bless you even in the darkest times Walk with you through the thickest vines Sail with you over the wildest tides Endure to behold your brightest lights Bleed for you through the hardest fights Listen to you in my quietest times Dine with you, your desired diets Read with you what the martyrs write Roar with you like a lion's pride Hold you close like a mother's prize Support your own like an earnest bride Play my beats with the sickest rhymes Bring to you my honest tithe Worship you through silent nights Be an instrument for the dancer's hype Shield me, dear LORD, with your strongest might

Doubts in A Cage

-
  DOUBTS IN A CAGE I lock up my doubts in a cage, j ust so you would walk through For there is light in this life So open your eyes, now Hold my hand, closely Never let go;  I pray thee I pray for you every time Trade my voice to my thoughts, sometimes I get sores on my knees, j ust so you will never go down on yours Because I love you;  I love you, so much Such is truth that is very hard to destroy Do not lay your burdens on others, nor on rocks Have faith in me, w hile I still breathe They say this love is too much; i t is fully absurd But what choice do I have? That is the only arrow left in my quiver Do not listen to those that imitate me And do not listen to those that intimidate thee For I am the one you can look up to, a nytime Your truest companion and love

If Walls Can Speak

-
  IF WALLS CAN SPEAK If walls can speak, then my heart must dare to submit A few roars have led to so many wounds, I admit Time is the master, but God is beyond the first tick And the blood of righteousness; this that Christ Jesus is If walls do speak, then my heart must know no fear "I faltered, I failed"; then there is no more room for fear The blood that comforts all sorrows did tear That eternal joy would finally find its way in here
