That One True Love

As a little girl, we always wanted to find our one true love;
We looked, we searched, we wondered, not knowing our true 
love came from the heavens above.
The world has us fooled thinking man's love on earth could even 
suffice;
So we strayed away from GOD's love without even thinking twice.
As time begin to fly, we got comfortable in that love skin we were 
in;
Unaware of all the hurt and pain that came in the end.
Our main problem arised when we tried to find love on our own;
We took the place of man, but we still ended up alone.
If we would of only remembered that GOD loves us more than 
any man can;
Maybe we could of avoided the heart-ache, stress and tears 
before they began.
Maybe we could of avoided the heart-ache, stress and tears 
before they began.
We spent years of forgetting who we were to please a man we 
didn't even know;
In return only feeling alone and bruised with no where to go.
But you know, everyday is a new day and a lesson learned;
As women, we need to recognized our worth with no need to be 
concerned.
You see, now we know GOD is love and no one can love us 
better;
HE will send us someone just for us and who makes us feel as 
soft as a feather.
So continue to wait on GOD because we know he has our groom 
to be;
Just keep you heart together until that "one" finds you with the 
key!

Ladyanthem

Ladies let me talk to you for a while, Why you letting him control your life and take away your smile? Truth be told, God has a plan for your life. 
You are not somebodies 2am call, you are somebodies wife.
Don't let them talk to you like that, you're not stupid, you're not a slut, you're none of these things...you're better than that.
We are the daughters of a king, that would make each of a a princess, Don't think so low of yourself, you deserve nothing less than God's best.
Ladies we got to do better, we gotta keep the dresses and skirts down.
That gift is for your groom to be on that day you wear your wedding gown. 
Don't let them fool you, sex wont keep him with you. In fact, after sex he just may leave you.
Don't let the world fool, having his baby wont keep him with you. In fact, after having his baby, he just may leave you. 
I once heard someone say, no wed no bed and no ring, no ting. 
That simply means, if he is not your husband, he doesn't get nothing no matter what type of gifts he tries to bring.
They say pregnancy is new black, maybe that's why im wearing pink. Don't give in, we are stronger than we think.
We gotta stop looking at Melanie and Derwin or Monica and Quincy or Edward and Bella and thinking that's real love.
Real love comes from our heavenly father above.
We gotta stop sending those same old tired prayers up to God. You know the ones that go like this, "Lord if I only had a man." "Lord where is my husband?" "Lord I just wanna be a bride!"
How we asking for a man and we not all together on the inside?
We need to ask him to prepare us first, instead of doing it in reverse
I used to say those same prayers, I was right there with you too.
But then I learn, I cannot only be title ready, I gotta be duty ready too.
Ladies we need to dress the way we want to be addressed.
If you were your dresses and skirts up here, that may get you a whistle.
But if you dress appropriately and cover your body then you may get his initials. 
We gotta stop loving out Mr. Wrong and wait on our Mr. Right.
Because when its all said and done, he will be the one waiting for us as we are walking down the aisle in out all white. 
We don't need the piercings in our naval or the tattoos on our back.
That is just asking for unnecessary attention from the wrong guys and we really don't need that.
Tattoos I wanted badly and piercings I had, but for what reason, was i trying to make a good girl go bad?
No I was trying to fit in with people who talk to you when you wear this or that.

What I'M Leaving In 2011

"What I'm Leaving in 2011"

I cannot speak for everyone but I can speak for me,
2011bruised me in many ways,but it didn't break me, You see.
I'm leaving so many things in 2011that this poem cannot even suffice,
2012 will be my year of triumph, no need to think twice.
I'm leaving every financial burden that ever came my way,
Its now my past, its history, it won't make it to my present day.
In 2011 I'm leaving that "I'ma do it later attitude", Yea I'm talking about procrastination,
In 2012 Procrastination will not cost me my destination.
I'm leaving lustful desires that flowed through my flesh,
Now I'm concentrating on feeding my spirit because feeding both spirit and flesh won't mesh.
In 2011 I'm leaving "my timezone" and entering into "GOD's timezone",
I've learned this year doing things on my own time never worked, I should of known.
I'm leaving the negativity that surrounded me and tried to make me stop dreaming,
This year I see my poetry going further, my name in lights, gleaming.
In 2011 I'm leaving acts that were not pleasing to my fathers ears and eyes,
No longer will I allow myself to be pulled into this world with an ungodly disguise.
I'm stepping out of 2011 happier, smiling and knowing GOD is on my side,
He is there to protect me and to be my guide.
The list can go on further but you all see where I'm going,
Anything that isn't of GOD can now start blowing.
Blowing away from me and this new year,
I'm focusing on GOD and his will where everything is clear.
So bye-bye Lady Brii, the one who struggled through her mess,
Hello Lady Brii, GOD's child, no longer worried but Ms. Lyrically Blessed!!!

Where Did They Go

The girl with the lustful eyes and the mini skirts, where did she go?
I see her physically but for some reason the wondering eyes and mini skirts no longer show.
The guy who would drink every night until his eyes closed, he is no longer here.
I see him physically but for some reason the drunken nights with Vodka, Whiskey and Rum have disappeared. 
Where did they go?
Where is the girl with the piercings and tattoos that were placed at the small of her back?
I see her physically but for some reason now piercings and tattoos are what she lacks.
Where is the guy who danced in the club Sunday through Saturday with no day to rest?
I see him physically but for some reason he will not step foot in the club anymore, he confessed. 
Where did they go?
Where is the girl who treated every man like her husband and gave him lust on another degree?
I see her physically but for some reason she now does not have sex before marriage no matter how much he pleas. 
Where is the guy that hit and curse women like his mother and sister since the age of fifteen?
I see him physically but for some reason now he treats his mother and sister like queens.
Where did they go?
Where is the girl who was so depressed that she cut her wrist just to get attention when she felt alone?
I see her physically but for some reason the cutting has cease and now she is getting help to make her secret problems known.
Where is the guy who had sex with girls night after night just to prove to his friends who was on top?
I see him physically but for some reason the random sex acts with random girls have stopped. 
Where did they go?
They were tired of the life they lived and decided to kill what held them back the most,
They stopped feeding their flesh, until the flesh became ghost.
Giving up the ways of the world, and started living like the ways of Christ they were born again, 
No longer wanting to stray away from GOD and live their life through sin. 
So where did they go?
They went in the direction where there is everlasting life,
Living for GOD, now saved, now a husband, and now finally a wife.
