Empty Promises
I don't know how to lie to spare your heart
Yet love in truth embraces the reality
I won't fake a smile to keep up the illusion
No opportunity for mercy
Every facade is an obstacle to intimacy
There is no truth in the lie only honesty
When feelings pave way to revel
In the serenades of my own hypocrisy
I'm learning to believe in my defense
But no matter how we justify our sins
It proves, every confession made with a disclaimer
Is our counterfeit attempt to forge humility
My humanity is no excuse for my humanity
Love is my...

Death of Me
Where do we begin
When from timelessness redemption was born
Eternity reaching into a vapor
To give life meaning
As legacy lives beyond a moment
Ageless to every age
Dead to death in resurrection
I took my first breath when You spoke me
Yet I only find the reason for breathing in speaking Your name
My voice only can carry as far as the words it echoes
When everything I say seeks to re-calibrate to and reverberate truth
Finding my harmony in the melody of You
My symphony finds solace in the orchestra of grace
...

Femininity Part 2 (+Reading)
Femininity is not in beautifully applied makeup,
not in a smooth gait,
not in a flirtatious look,
Femininity is not all in appearance,
although it shows through the exterior
Femininity is a special kind of energy,
the subtlest radiation emanating from the deepest feelings,
from the soul of a woman ...
Not all women have femininity,
moreover,
Femininity has become more difficult in this world,
for in so much of the majority it is challenged,
and for many it is not, it was never ...
Femininity is impossible to learn... ...

Hello Disorder
Amnesty given to the unwise.
Teaching the dumb how to survive.
Washing away the day by day.
Ending the system that seemed okay.
A world of tyrants breeding more tyrants.
Wrapping fingers around the imbecile minds.
No different than the rest.
Programmed and distorted.
One main plan beginning to end.
Thought of in many ways between the sheets.
Behind the curtains.
Inside their heads.
Tought generation after generation.
One world power seems wise.
In olden days it seemed like the only way. ...

Darkness into Light
Darkness and death it brought to the heart of men,
An apocalyptic event in disobedience the fall took it's form,
Rebuked and reproved out of paradise we were thrown,
Killers and murders we became since the time of Cain.
Nature cursed because of Adam we toil and till the ground,
Eternal life stripped away now sinners we became.
Serpent satan cursed for his deceitful ways,
Stationed flaming sword,prevention of mans unlawful claim.
Inhabitants of earth without sovereign reign,
Now we seek for hope in heaven we look again.

Interracial Dating In The Millennium
Interracial Dating
A hot topic worth debating
Perception innovating
Skin blending given unto one another
Heart-to-Heart for a future lover
Does it matter whose tasting the sweet nectar of your rose petals under the covers
Years ago, this concept on my Nurse’s wish list would never have fallen under grace
Discussion such as this would never have taken place
Racial discrimination, bigotry, or talks to blend the black man’s seed to procreate
Never outside the realm of the darker...
