Letting go....

She felt that holding on was much easier to do
She thought of the pros and cons and did a review
How she longed for the good old days when it was easy
Such heavy decisions did not make her queasy
She woke up, dressed up drove off to work was the norm
Then it happened and that was the beginning of the storm

How to alleviate herself from the predicament she knew
the straight and narrow was the route she would pursue
the road may be rough and circumstances tough
but she knows the one who is More than enough
That He will never leave her nor forsake her
So she can let go and let God be her chauffeur

Trapped

She is trapped in a room
dressed in a masquerade costume
So many people around her and they assume
everything's is fine but they cannot see her gloom

She is trapped in a house
no spouse, no louse, not even a mouse
All alone, so many minutes so many hours
Its now all hers it ceased being ours

She is trapped in a prison
battling within her is the force of reason
To partake or not of the poison
her head pounds, her eyes are crimson

She is trapped in her space
Her past she wishes she could erase
What dream is this she tries to chase
All she longs for is that one embrace

Travel the road less travelled by......

Traveling the rough trodden dusty road
the dust in my eyes cloud my vision
wish I could board a bus to lighten the load
but I don't regret that making this decision

traveling ahead against the wind
sand in my eyes are getting the best of me
wish I had music to calm my state of mind
But the road i travel makes me free

Traveling forward never looking back
particles in my eyes irritate me so
wish the road was the same on a different track
But He is the way, the truth and the life I know

Traveling towards the end of the race
speck in my eyes make me blind to my fault
wish I had a bike to increase my pace
But slowly Jesus removes the specks and makes me the salt

Traveling leaving my past behind
my eyes are clear and the road clearly defined
I now see, before I was lost, yes I was blind
And apart from Him a greater friend I cannot find.

Greater Love.....

No wound can cut so deep where He cant reach
No heart is so discolored that He cant bleach
For His everlasting Love is able to comfort
His unending tender kindness a sure fort
Who can fathom the depth of his love for us
Who can compare to His care none can pass

Whenever you are sad and have no one to turn to
Remember Jesus has been there and will never leave you
Whenever life brings discourse you cannot bear
Remember Jesus is not far He is ever near
Whenever you hurt so bad your heart is torn
Remember Jesus heals all wounds and comforts your mourn
Whenever you feel lost or unloved
Remember Jesus died for you and you are His beloved

And when you cry those tears of pain
Jesus will wipe them and make you smile again
When you down and your heart is broken
He will pick you up for that His life was taken
Cast all your cares to Him for He cares for you
Live life with no baggage for in Him you are made new

John 15:13 "Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends."

Conflicted.....

Decisions decisions,
causing mental divisions
To be or not?
To do or don't?

what is the grand consequence?
Why am I loosing my patience?
It shouldn't be that hard right?
Is it worth all this fight?

Conflicted my heart has become
Is this a result of attachment or am I numb?
What if I close my eyes and just sell it
I don't think I can I must admit

Selling my car is what am talking about here
its not deep poetry but I need to share
A conflicted heart I must cease to be
The decision I make should make me free!

Run the Race......

He called to me and I ran,
I ran to him and not away
to where he was waiting at the bay.
With His arms stretched out wide
With a smile on His face and nothing to hide.

I was besides myself with joy
Pure bliss indeed a day that i would enjoy
I ran as fast as my feeble feet could carry me
My heart beat close to my chest about to be free
I threw my bags down, aside, didn't want the hindrance you see.

He called to me again and I wondered why
I was already running but oh I wasn't drawing nigh
The running must have just been in my mind
I was just standing still like a powerless grind
My heart sunk, my feet gave in, the strength I couldn't find.

I was downcast, perplexed, how come I couldn't run
Tears ran down my rosy cheeks till they burn
I didn't know the reason, or is it that I didn't have the passion
I prayed for answers seeking my own version
So hard I cried I hoped I had His attention.

He called me the third time
Told me not to whine
That I could stand, dust myself and walk again
He ran to me and removed my feet from the miry clay
He held my hand and helped me stand on the Way
His arms covered me and His face shone on me bright as day

I was up and running again
This time I wasn't alone in my own lane
He was there beside me running alongside
My spirit began to get lifted as i saw how far i had drifted
His love was there for me all the time it never shifted.

He called me the last time
We stopped running and it was fine
I knowingly looked into His eyes
As He told me It was time for goodbyes
Bid the world away never to return to lies
To forever live with Him never to roam.
The race was done and we were finally home.

"Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us." Heb 12:1
Look up to Jesus, the author and finisher of my faith!

My daisy

From the moment I picked you out
Brought me great joy no doubt
Placed you in my rose garden
There my heart to gladden

Your white petals blooming
Makes for handsome grooming
And your elegant poise
Separates you from all of the boys

Am so glad it was you
The roses are delighted too
Your smile and charm melt my heart
Of it you became a special part






Day after day I thank God you came my way
Your petals I pray stay and not fall away
The white, the yellow, the strong stalk green
you're charming and you're mellow make me feel sixteen

New Dawn....

you are in a dark room high walls no windows
In the corner scared of what might be lurking in the shadows
you cant breathe coz the air around you is getting thicker
sweat dripping from your face your body's getting weaker
you cant see in front of you so you don't make a move
darkness surrounds you theres nothing you'll try to prove

so u slowly hold the wall behind and get a base
to slowly set yourself down in a little space
you get all the way down and stretch your feet
you try to fan yourself a bit coz of all the heat

soon u start to feel it, a breeze u start to hear it
the wind blowing on your face, a window shaped form falls into place
through the wall u see the hole form, clearly u see a new dawn
you are not mistaken its for real,you get up and begin to kneel
you see the hole grow now to form an open door
you get up on your feet you get up from the floor
you begin to pray, thanking God you adore
you got a way out in time you were not done for.
