Love Under the Influece

All she wanted was his time Focused attention, if you please But he took what was his Til she was on her knees ...begging He was in awe of her beauty She utilized his wealth He gave her all she desired But he could not pay for her health ...she dragged him under They saw her light, shining Far brighter than ever seen They gave her basic needs While they gathered at her spleen ...under her radar Millions lie before him Hunger for a word of hope In the midst of their debilitating despair He throws out a frayed rope ...luring the eye down Violence is such an ugly word A reality for those who try to love Killing, Stealing, and Destroying The connection for those rising above ...the urchens Utilizing others for personal gain May seem like an acceptable function But for Children of LIGHT Pure flow under the UNCTION ....of Mama God ....................delivers the afflicted ......................................heals those under contract .......................................................restores the soul to the SPIRIT ...............................................With no thought............for.................self.
