Love Will Keep Us Together

Love Will Keep Us Together

Since the fall of 1989 I have written poems
 For some people it may touch a more spiritual side or awakening
 While others it may reflect a vivid reminder to tap into the mind
 With all my heart I firmly believe that we should never hide it
 Whether you have a talent for cooking, sewing or teaching others
 I firmly believe that you should let your beacon of light shine forth
 God has put it on my heart to write poetry to the mass population
 At times I feel as though he might be distant from me
 However it isn't God that has moved it's me that has chosen to
 In this inner struggle called life we are perplexed to las out in anger
 Perhaps for not providing for our own selfish needs
 There is a direct correlation between trusting & obeying
 The simple matter of it is that in our own stregnth we are powerless
 People perceive that what they do is who they are
 This is indeed so far from the truth from within
 Love is the true essence of my existence from the resistance
 We make sand castles at the beach so far out of reach
 To substitute love for that of lust in a world in such a rush
 Let's look inside to mend the fences to begin to fix the trenches
 Stay humble enough after the fall share a smile to the know it all
 Each of us has been given a unique talent from above
 Shaped brilliant colors out of the sky as a unique passerby
 Hold open the door for a neighbor it may be an angel in disguise
 Share a smile cause it's contagious so pass it on to a friend
 Sew seeds of kinds to your fellow brother for we all must live to shine !
