The GraceThey all say "It'll be alright.”
"You’ll get a job, save yourself—save your family."
"Trust the process,"—
that’s the song we’re all singing.
But deep down,
no one knows the struggle.
No one sees the nights we lie awake thinking,
or the doubts we've carved inside ourselves.
Do they even know
how hard it is
just to hold it together?
Sometimes,
we think of going out—

SOUL GRATEFUL-Soul, grateful for your presence, in my life;
May our love continue to be a source of inspiration?
Repeatedly all days and all nights
I accept this declaration
And joy for each other
With thoughts of you
With thoughts of you
Myself my soul is grateful
For your ever-present
You’re my love that continues
My source of inspiration

BEAUTIFUL YOU'RE MY QUEEN-
Beautiful you’re my Queen;
You wear a crown, not of gold, silver or metal;
Your crown is your hair;
Your crown is your eyes;
Your crown is your smile;
~
Your heartbeat is the crown of life
The breath of God He daily gives
Your lips and mouth crown of love
You taste the manna spread
You are the Father’s heart
Listen to what He’s saying

LIFE IS LIKE AN OCEAN JESUS KEEPS ME A FLOAT-My life is like an ocean
rising ups and dissentions
Oh! did I mention
A man walking atop the waters
If I look on to Him
I will not sink nor swim
In life sometimes sinking
Life is like an ocean Jesus keeps me a float-
But on top I shall walk
I the peace, stillness of Jesus
I keep Him in perfect peace
For if...

CLOSER TO HER-His heart was closed to her
As she kept pulling his vessel near
She stood ever before her heart
As she walked away from his heart
Yet while in part she spied
As he closed his eyes
Still he walked ever closer
Closer, closer, closer until embrace
Closer to her she stood still
As he tasted her premise will
What surely God will allow
on loan...

Life Through Traveler's EyesLook at life through the eyes of a traveler
Who stayed in a hotel for a couple of days:
He like the room,
He like the hotel,
But he does not get too attached to them,
Because he knows
That all these does not belong to him,
And he will leave soon....

Silence Listens
Silence listens to the voices of the people
while on earth, a wisp of wind digresses
In heaven God listens to each silent call
at the footfalls of Silence...
Silence breathes quietly at the crack of dawn
respiring softly at the ledge of twilight sunset
Silence sits at the nucleus of...

Silence Listens
In the deluge of the surging river of life
Flooding me with devastating agony
I feel my senses sink deep within
With the debris of somber spirit.
As from the eroded banks of existence
I see my time disappear in the wreckage
I hear the distant bell toll relentless
Waft faintly in the still air, calling me.
And then the music...

emergencyIf ever presented with a platter of choices
I shall choose a certain kind of calmness.
Unlike the one which holds leaves together before storm,
I choose the kind mingled on faces of ambulance drivers
Of my hometown....

EmptyYou have begun staring emptier than me,
the spiritual distortion leaves me speechless.
Of all the parts you could've picked,
You chose the mole right above my upper lip.
As if you have the power to remove
birth marks with an empathetic laser surgery...
And sometimes the gaze flutters down and up,
instantly to my eyes when the realisation...
