Hold unto his love

Broken and heavy burdened

She carried her tears to his feet

Unable to question why

Unable to pray

She reminded him of his promises

I am holding unto love” she said.

My faith is on the line

Before I give up,

I know your answer is yes and amen

Not trying to question you,

But why?

If love covers it all…

Why, why I’m I holding unto a love long gone

Let Go My Soul

Let go my soul and trust in him.

If the birds and trees still sway

and the wind and waves still in his presence

What is warmth without his embrace?

What is love without his word?

Let go my soul and trust in him

Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth

For his love is better than wine

Strengthen me with raisins and

Refresh me with apples

For i am faint with love

Let go my soul and trust in him

What is a heart when its empty?

What is love when the embrace is cold

A broken heart is nothing he cant fix

Balm of love

I will never let you fall asleep wondering if I love you

It’s why I have built a home behind your eyelids

That every time you shut your eyes,

Even in my absence, you bring me home

I am am going to touch your soul and light a fire within

Teach me the lyrics of your heart so that I’ll sing your song

I will not give you apart of me

I will let your savor all of me

You will hear everything I have never said.

And i will keep your heart safe

Tucked away, faraway from pain and bad memory

We are a team,

Whatever you lack, I got you

I promise you better nights,

You got me, I got us

Drained.

I leaned in to kiss your soul

I hoped I would give you strength

But suddenly I remembered

It’s your cup I drink from

I am fueled by you

And now I sit besides you helplessly

Wondering and contemplating

Do I even deserve you?

I listen to you with my eyes

Deep down I know you are drained

Your strength can no longer hold both of us

Broken people break people

I have become the mirror you can’t fix

The burden you can no longer shoulder

Because I don’t even know what it means being at the well.

Hey, woman at the well,

Teach me how to draw water for my partner is drained.

I love you

Dear you,

More than words might ever say, more than gifts might ever represent. I have loved you from the very first time I saw you. Eyes as bright as pearls and a smile so infectious. I wanted you to be mine and God answered every prayer I said every night after that. See how far we have come and how long we still have to go. We are going to smell the flowers, brew the coffee and paint the sunset together.

I love you. More than I ever planned, more than the prescription. I wish I was obsessed but I am in love and loving every bit of this love. I love you more than the sunrises and more than the roses that sit at my kitchen counter. Here, take my heart. Love it even when I am gone and can no longer dine with you on valentines, in your absence, I will love you like you are present.

Choke me

Choke me.

I stared blankly at her

Choke me and empty me of all the air

Suffocate my breath and fill me with you

He still stared at her

Wondering if it’s her body he wanted

Or her breath

But more than choking her,

He needed her.

C’mon

I know you are starved as much as I am

Can we taste the lust we hunger for

I want you

Dear you,

I want to fight. I want to clash your lips unto mine. I want to drown in the fire of your passion and float in your skin. I want you to save me from my bed, loneliness, tiredness and all the mockery around me. The nights have been so cold lately. The wind blowing and my windows creaking. I am so afraid of the night especially the rainy nights. I want you. I want you to lay besides me so that I may get lost in your prison of embrace. I do not mind if you need me to spread my legs sorry wings whole night neither do I mind your getting lost in my bosom.

When I see you, strange things whisper in my ear. Voices of karma and sounds of sutra. Like I am hallucinating. I lay on my bed facing the ceiling and feel you every where. My vision blurry but my sense to touch clearer. Valentines is here and all I am asking is for a night. One night in your bed or maybe my bed fueling my fire, making love and singing songs of worship.

Like you are hers.

Dear you,

She talks about you like you put stars in the sky. She looks at you the same. But that’s something you probably don’t notice even. She is kind of traditional, waiting that you initiate conversation but you don’t even see the fire in her eyes nor the smile she wears when you call out her name in conversation.

Do you see how much she hates it when other girls take all your attention? But how, when you hardly notice that she dresses for you. Can’t you see the way her face lights up when she sees you

“I am scared of losing him.” She says.

You aren’t even here to start with but she is counting sunsets she hasn’t even watched.

Hey…I know you like her, step up and tell her. Stop ignoring her and acting like she isn’t that important. Now you know how she feels, you know she will not say no.stop trying to get her attention by focusing on another.stop choosing daisies in a field of roses. Tuck your fears aside and let love lead
