Out of the abundance of the Heart,
the mouth speaks,
out of the mouth, flows words and affirmations,

words that could kill a man,
words that could edify and bless a soul,
Will you pick up a weapon or a blessing today?

I cry because the people are in chains.
I cry because the people are grooming themselves in ignorance.

The ones I sent to bring them to my fold have lost their way.
The fire I ignited has turned up cold.
The vessels I made have become empty.
Is this what has happened?
Empty gongs in the lord's Temple?
Who will go for us?
Who will bring Eremos back to the fold?
Light to the lost souls?
Who?
says the Lord of host.

Till then I am forever in chains.
For there is a place I must go to,
A word I must preach,
A seed I must plant,
For the lord is at hand.

-

There you were.
My oasis,
My home.
Unknown to me,
Chocolates and cream,
Like a wave,
I sought for a voice.
I wished.

-

Lost,

In a room of a million voices,
Too loud to speak,
Too loud to think.
Mirrors all around, replaying my past,
Replaying my lies,
Lies of who I was,
Lies of who I wanted to be.

John 3:16,
With this word, my hazy eyes could see,
Bask in the glow of God's light from the beginning of time.
Time, a pencil in his hands,
Love, unlimited, free to access.

In him was peace,
And in him at long last...
I was found.

-

Death,
I was dead for I was in sin.
Captivated by the lies, I stayed there and dined,
Chained to the rhythms, chained to death.

Life,
With God's word giving spirit and life,
Like a Phoenix, from the ashes,
I rose to beauty and his marvellous light.
In Him do I find strength and might.
Yeshua, the lord on high.

LOVE

It is not just about the gifts.
No, not even the riches.

Just like in 1 John 4:7-8,
Everyone should love one another.
Share beautiful smiles.
Utilise to make your loved ones happy.
Should love not be shown?

We are the epitome of love.
Everyone is love.

Like Jesus,
Over and about everything,
Vest your armor of love,
Encourage each other in love.

She wore the patches but yet adorned me with glittering robes.
Not that she couldn't afford it but that it meant nothing when it came to me.
she was my rose, she pricks but adorns too.

I remember the shouts she gave in my head, in a way it kept me from being misled,
I remember the corrections she gave, it made me see life through a different lens.
I remember her silent tears,
Those moments were the worst.
She hid them from me but I could see right through them.

The way she handles situations leaves me in awe,
she swallows every pain in a jiffy, making a quick U-turn to the next degree making sure she's not torn.

To them, she's my mother.
To me, she's Wonder Woman too.
She has superpowers,
Not even this piece could do justice to them all.
She's not the DC Wonder Woman but in a fist fit, she would win leaving no draws.

THE FIRST DAY
On the first day of Christmas, my true lord gave to me...🎶
No not a bird in a pear tree.
But something greater than this you see.
He gave salvation to this human being.
chastised by the world,
I held a million counts,
In a sentence, I was to die.
My life of rags, the hoods have been tough,
I did it to survive and thus chained myself to the rhythm of death,
I received my wages; Death.
An award that is always served cold.
The icy cold hands of the grim reaper lay at wake waiting for the next client.
I was cast out.
I was to die.
I was finished.
Here is the twist... I said 'was' not 'is'.

So on the first day of Christmas, my true lord said to me...🎶
I come to set you free.
I come to bring life to thee.
I come so we can be one; in love peace and unity... forever.

At first, it was your smile,
I was lost wondering how beautiful it shone and lit up the room.
In denial, you gave me warmth when I was blue,
The scent of flowers all over you seemed bliss,
The daydream I hated became me.
You were my daydream.
Acceptance,
I laughed at a fairytale,
A knife in my thighs reminded me that you were only the sun.
As you lit up you set rather too soon.

-

I woke up late.
It's 7:44.
The morning of a Friday.
Reminiscing of this week, drained from head to toe.
I'm Tired!

7:46? Still tired...
Back aching, throat hoarse,
No sun just moody clouds moving to the rhythm of my vibe... Blue
7:48, still wondering when I'll be awake.
