The Hole Deep in One’s Own Heart

In moments of greatest loss, sadness and sorrow,
A hole forms so deep within one’s own heart;
There it shall remain so for each ‘n every morrow,
Until life’s end when comes our Heavenly depart!

My dearest, such times of tribulation define us...

Immerse in the tranquility of truth 
And believe in the opulence of your
Devine being, BEHOLD IT,
As the proof, You seek is THOU
As Heaven’s Breath of Spiritual eloquence
As an Infinite horizon
In the radiance of light of Heaven
As beyond Yourself 
As LOVE with Conscious intent
In the waves...

A Poet After My Own Heart
Words formed into such beauty
Can so easily take my breath away
Can so easily sweep me off my feet
Can take this heart, break or make it, and bewitch this mind
I'm falling apart to synthetic verse across a digital screen
A poet after my own heart
What I search,...

After God's Own Heart
David was a man after God's own heart
This I could not understand
so I had to pick it apart,
He was adulterer
a liar, and murderer too,
He did all kinds of crazy things
that he had no right to do,
But he was human, and honest
and he repented to God...

Prisoner of His Own Heart
this wounded man he took a stand
and forever chained his heart

she took his hand this wounded man
promised her love was true

her love was heaven sent 
from God himself above

but his heart was heavy
with chains that bind

this wounded man
he walked away

left her weary and broken

this wounded...

Ronin My Own Heart 32
High upon this hill of long grass we sit in repose staring off in the distance
down upon the valley and village of our youth
the sun is setting in the sky and I feel its fading warmth
pushing us toward winter pushing me back toward duty and...

Thine Own Heart Be True
Thine own heart be true
For my heart beats only for you
Like the taste of the very finest wine
'Tis the sweetness of your lips as they are pressed to mine
Just as the wind blows the leaves from the trees
The very breath of you brings me to...

My Own Heart
In my own heart
I will always be true,
I will look in the mirror
And never be blue...

In my own heart
The sun will shine,
Making brighter days
I know I'll be fine...

In my own heart
I am someone,
I am someone who's free
Free until kingdom come...

In my own heart
I will say...

After God’S Own Heart
In his family being last 
A teenager was considered outcast
But he spent time in fields so vast
Thoughts of his Creator left him aghast

All his siblings were employed 
While he to shepherding was deployed
He yearned to see military operation
Yet got reproved on any expedition

On an auspicious...

Betrayed By My Own Heart
I am betrayed by my own heart
It's a crime to love 
How could my heart do this again 
Broken and wrecked  
I can't trust my heart 
Why would you love again... Why? 
After all the hurt, my heart still has hope... The hope of...

I broke my own heart
Burger King’s and KFC’s
Large kebabs topped off with cheese
Too many beers slip down with ease
A Double Whopper, no salad please

Pile on the pounds, put on the weight
That greasy fry tasted just great
Eat it all, let’s clear the plate
Another bar of chocolate

Living it large on the...
