Shelter
Shelter
Can I shelter you from the storm?
Take my word and watch your life transform.
No matter what you go through, keep praying.
Every second, minute, hour, because the Devil is always playing.
I know it's hard and the storm is getting bad.
Life has you down and you're always feeling sad.
Do one thing and place your hand on your heart.
Do you feel that, now that purpose?
As long as you keep waking up, God has plans for you.
God didn’t bring you this far to leave you.
God is never silent in your...

InsideOut
Baby, you're so beautiful inside out. Your mind shines bright no doubt. I love your personality. I also love your beauty. A beautiful face will age. But the body will change. A beautiful soul will engage. A heart that's rearranged. From a million broken pieces. The pressure releases. Like steam coming from a pot. Until Happiness unties the knot. Free as a bird floats across the sky. She's trying not to cry. Almost about to lose control. Until she realized laughter is good for the soul.

Dreamin
Your mind is so addictive it's so potent,
Whenever I think of you I get so high.
Your claro skin reminds me of a cigar,
I wanna give you all of me inside.
Licking my lips as I daydream,
As if I'm about to go under.
When we touch it sparks a flame.
A burning sensation runneth over.
When I look into your eyes,
My feelings climb through your window.
Walking around within your temple,
It's as beautiful as an art show.
Damn, I love the vibe that we have,
It's stronger than anything.
I keep coming back,...

All Things Considered
All things considered the good and bad.
All things that made you happy and sad.
All the mistakes you made through the years.
All the pain that made you shed tears.
Tomorrow ain't promised gotta do it right now.
See life is short, we can call that bow wow.
Keep your eyes on the prize, don't lose focus.
You gotta have faith there's no hocus pocus.
No weapon form against me shall survive.
Jesus took the wheel and began to drive.
On the right path taking me to my...

A Homeless Heart
Her heart is starving for love.
Digging in his eyes for true love.
Realized it was empty.
Soul wandering down on misery.
She gave her all now she's a mess.
Never thought she'd be homeless.
Lately, her intuition seems kinda odd.
He took everything from her but God.
She's on the streets of confusion.
Wondering was it love or just an illusion.
Wounded crawling to find some shelter.
Until she found Faith things got better.
Life was falling apart but it fell into place.
All she needed was God his everlasting grace. ...

Can We Talk
Get naked, but leave your clothes on. Undress your mind for me, there’s no rush, take your time for me. Let me bend over your pain, long-stroke your depression, and rub my strength on the tip of your sadness. Bite the pillows of my knowledge and climax on my wisdom, let me get a better understanding of you. Hand gripping your hair, different positions we’re switching, I become one with you! There’s nothing I would rather do than have intellectual intercourse with you!

Our Love Is Like A Movie
Baby, I'll always be by your side.
Ride or die like Bonnie and Clyde.
We took our hearts out on a limb.
Riding deep like Queen and Slim.
We're waves rolling off the coast.
I'm your Patrick Swayze in Ghost.
Somehow we meet we just click.
I will fight for you like John Wick.
My love has depth and substance.
Setting you free with Poetic Justice.
Flowers will fade, those leaves will fall.
We'll bounce up like Love & Basketball.
My pen is smooth like a 57 Cadillac.
This is How Stella Got Her Groove Back.
The last...

As I Am
Your love, it spoke a different language—a dialect of depth and acceptance that I had never been versed in
With every word, every gesture, every moment you shared;
you dismantled the fortress I had built around my spirit, brick by bitter brick
You became my mirror reflecting not the fragmented visage I had come to expect, but a being worthy of love, of happiness, of a chance to be whole
And in that reflection: I found the truth that had eluded me, the simple, profound revelation that I was enough
Your love, unintentionally, became my salvation....

Deep
Deep down in my mind, in its darkest corner, there's an abandoned graveyard,
filled with lost desires, a dark land, raped, scarred. A thick fog of fear surrounds me, I'm looking at my tombstone, I'm drowning in misery, I need a lifeguard. I hear something creeping up like a crescendo, as I turn around the grim reaper staring in my eyes. Here we are once again he says and asks "Are you ready to go?" Deep within light is shining then I realize. My faith is trying to dig its way through the pain and abuse like a miner trying to find the light. God spoke to my heart and told me to...

It's Whatever
I have been trapped within this maze of depression. I'm going through a lot and I lost all sense of direction. For some time now darkness surrounds me like an eclipse. It's eating away at my soul leaving no tips. I wish I had died in the accident that changed my life. Ever since then, all I have been going through is strife. Happiness comes and goes like a deadbeat dad. Leaving me all alone which has me feeling sad. I haven't written a poem in a long time, I came to a writer's block. My mind was congested which had my consciousness locked. I wanna be free from the confusion and pain. Hoping...

Wake Up
I see you haven't left yet you must be obsessed with crying. Why do you let him keep hurting you, you know he's lying. In the beginning, things were so perfect everything was good. Termites of lies destroy the relationship deteriorating your wood. You are home alone wondering if he coming by or not. Don't be someone’s sometimes and don’t fight for a spot. If he's not giving you any attention you need to fail him. Branches of deceiving shadowing your heart get it trimmed. You deserve happiness nothing less stop feeling down. Stop entertaining his circus you need to leave that clown. Go look in...

Stare
Looking into your eyes sends chills down my spine my soul is frozen. Your smile keeps me high like marijuana, that's highly potent. Your skin complexion is like the world’s finest chocolate so rich. It feels like my heart hit a home run with the perfect pitch. Within the stadium of my mind, my feelings are going wild. The thought of you where it started arranged then logged and filed. Deep in the cabinet of my diencephalon, where you’ll always be. Like white on rice, you’re on my mind constantly. Your lips are like the gates of heaven that take my breath away. Floating like helium leaks into...
