Stronger

I've decided that I am no longer the victim.. I triumphant in war, I've diagnosed all my symptoms.. the love that is giving to me, I'm using as an incentive.. please don't mistake my new focus for being vindictive.. to isolate the body is to concentrate the mind, and to penetrate the soul, it takes energy and time.. it takes energy and time to do anything at best.. it takes effectiveness to climb, just be to be above the rest.. Now, I'm not pointing fingers; merely getting things off my chest.. my conversion from negative to positive demonstrates that I'm nothing less than bless! My test was filled with trials, but my worries cancelled out.. now my faith is plenty miles, which out weighs any doubts.. through him, all things are possible, fore, he shows us all clemency.. no matter how you talk, walk, dress, or your tendencies.. the world is so caught up in trying to find the "velocity" when all we need as a nation is a tab bit of veracity! nothing good comes from being surreptitious.. it leads to a confused mind, and feeling of being relentless.. as God as my witness, I'm a 360 women.. thanks to: laughing often, living life, and learning how to love it.

Deep Waters

WATER WITH A FISH THAT CANT SWIM?HOW IS THAT? HOW WILL THAT FISH MAKE IT 

WHEN IT SEEMS THE WATER GETS DEEPER?..

EVEN THOUGH THE FISH ISN'T LIKE THE REST..IS IT STILL A KEEPER? 

CAN YOU TEACH THIS FISH THINGS THAT IT WILL CARRY FOR THE DURATION OF THIS 

LIFETIME? 

DOES THE DEEP WATER FORCE THE FISH TO BE SOLO, MOST TIME?

OR DOES IT DISCOURAGE?

DO THE DEEP WATER GIVE COURAGE? 

I HAVE A LOT OF QUESTIONS IT MAY SEEM, BUT THEY ARE ALL LOGICAL! 

TO STEP OUT ON FAITH,YOU ARE TESTING HOW MUCH DEEPER YOU CAN GO WITH OUT 

DROWNING.. 

HOW CAN YOU MOVE THOUGH LIFE WITH OUT FROWNING? 

OPEN YOUR GILLS.EXPLORE THE SEA..ITS SO MUCH TO BE...SO MUCH TO 

SEE...
STAYING STRONG IS KEY!!! 

YOU WONDERING WHO THE FISH IS..... 

WELL I AM SHE.

Don'T Tell Me

DONT TELL ME HOW I SHOULD BE, 

DONT TELL ME I SHOULD CHANGE...IF UR NOT WILLING TO DO THE SAME. 

DONT TELL ME I HURT YOU..BECAUSE I'VE BEEN HURT 22YEARS, 

DONT TELL ME YOU'RE CRYIN,BECAUSE I JUST DRIED ALL MY TEARS... 

DONT TELL ME YOU'RE SCARED I'LL HURT YOU,BECAUSE I STILL HAVE FEARS! 

DONT TELL YOU'RE NOT LISTENING,WHEN I'M ALL EARS..! 

DONT TELL ME I'M NOT..."LADY LIKE",BECAUSE IM SUCHA  LADY... 

DONT TALK ME TO DEATH ABOUT THINGS THATS BEEN THERE, AND YOU JUST 
RECONIZE  THEM LATELY... 

DONT TELL ME I NEED WORK LIKE YOU'RE SO DAMN PERFECT 

DONT TELL ME TO LIMITED MY MISTAKES, 

AT THAT TIME,IT JUST SEEMED SO WORTH IT, 

DONT TELL ME TO QUIT TRYING, BECAUSE ITS WORTHLESS, 

JUST.....LET ME GO MY OWN PATH,AND FIND MY OWN PURPOSE ..

Forgiveness

YOU DRAG ME THRU THE MUDD,PICK ME UP,AND REPEAT THE PROCESS. 

YET,I CONTINUE TO STAND STRONG AS A STATUE. 

BUT I CANT ACKNOWLEDGE MY PROGRESS. 

YOU SAY THINGS YOU DONT MEAN... 

LIKE YOU LOVE ME AND YOU'RE THERE 

BUT IM WISE ENOUGH TO KNOW A MASK FROM THE SKIN THATS BARE... 

YOU KNOW? THIS JUST DOESN'T SEEM FAIR... 

BECAUSE IT SEEMS THAT YOU'VE WON... 

UNTIL YOU REALIZE THAT A LADY NAMED,KARMA, HAS JUST BEGUN... 

RATHER I DISPISE YOU OR NOT! 

I PREY FOR MERCY UPON YOU. 

THEY SAY SINS MAKE YOU BURN,

BUT LOOK AT WHAT THE CHILD OF GOD HAS TO GO THROUGH! 

I'LL FORGIVE YOU.... 

THE DAY IM GONE..AND FROM WHERE I STAND THAT SEEMS LONG... 

I'LL FORGIVE YOU... 

WHEN YOU BECOME PURE...THE ESSENCE OF REAL. 

I FORGIVE YOU BECAUSE I HAVE TOO.. 

OR ... I'M NO BETTER THAN YOU.... 

I FORGIVE YOU BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT A BEAUTIFUL SOUL DO. 

SO...I FORGIVE YOU......
