Overwhelming Vision
I have questions...
questions I seem to have stored in a jar
a collection seen as emptiness from afar
to these arcane corridors of secrets life has assured
My voice may be murmurous at best
lacking the presence of someone who is sonorous
who's voice is superfluous
but that's not going to...

Overwhelming World
 I want to run away
Run away from the problems I face
It's easier than to confront them headstrong
Don't compare me to another
Not even yourself
This is the world we live in
A society that creates status based on merit
A society of status determined by wealth
Laws created by...

Just When It Seems Like Life Is Overwhelming
Just When It Seems Like Life Is Overwhelming!

Just when it seems like I’ve faced
 my darkest night…
And things in life,
 aren’t turning out right…

This is about the time, when things
 are falling apart!
And I began to feel a lot of stress in my heart!

I run...

Lover, how you swagger in, so boldly brash
Overwhelming reason to seductive state
Taking my lips under sunset's final flash
Passion rich colors we recklessly create
I am warned of craters left once comets crash
Yet I blaze crimson with you, defying fate
If this night becomes but a memory shed
Into...

Overwhelming Darkness
Panic as I open my eyes to a new world.
Leaving the path of seeing and hearing,
into this frightened  bundle of humanity.
Tried reaching out to feel the air,
Cannot even hear the sounds of living.

Fear of the dark was closing in on me
Hated to be in...

The days blends together. Not sure what 
day it is exactly. Walls all around me. The 
stale air feels like a cage.  Darkness drifts 
in and out Taunting me. Laughing. I see 
this place as black and blue.  colors of 
disgrace. Im trapped...

Overwhelming
Overwhelming joy when  she replied, " I love you too" 
Very beautiful woman seen and memorized in  
Early 2001, when I was qualified to be an Electrician 
Really , She was so sociable, godfearing and  
Wise woman who answered all my criteria but 
Heaven called her...

It stifles me - 
the heavy breathing down my neck. 
I feel the force of your love 
overwhelming in its intensity 
and it stifles me. 

You  think you know me 
but you love a memory, and you 
mould and cajole until it materialises 
into...

“Wondrously overwhelming is God’s goodness that leads recipient toward wondrous good works.” By the Poet

God’s overwhelming love prevails
Freeing heart from sin-chaining pain
Since blest compassion never fails
Offering life eternal gain.

Christ’s overwhelming saving light
Always glows midst radiant grace
Cheering faith toward service height
To surmount tests along life’s race.

Overwhelming Lives
When life doles out unexpected twists and turns
we become overwhelmed and feel as if our faith has 
been spurned,

Relationships fall by the wayside, sometimes through
no fault of our own,  people let us down and stresses
keep piling up and we feel as if we could...

Overwhelming
I'm overwhelmed..  
with each name you named yourself

YOU gave me all what thy hands owned:
iceberg sea, from thy eyes,
wrenching laugh from your lips,
thirstiness, sadness and
all the yesterday' songs.

YOU gave me all what thy hands owned;
I've given you, nothing, but
a shudders mouth,longed to cry....

Overwhelming Thoughts
Overwhelming Thoughts
Why!?! I wondered; daily, solemnly pondered.
Why am I here – why not dead and moved yonder?
Thoughts pestered – which of them is believably sounder?
Look at me now: am I here for a divine plan greater?
Or could it even be for a family legacy, much...

Mentally Drowning
She cried her heart out in the shower this morning 
Desperate, anguishing tears
Uncontrollable, convulsing sobs

Anxiety within was strangling her
Clenching and crippling
Incarcerating her into a frozen-like state

All the while
No one heard her cries
No one shared her suffering

No one knew how defeated she felt
How crumpled her courage...

Coming Back Home
C-ircumstances were 
O-verwhelming
M-y life turned upside down
I-mperilled lives gripped with fear
N-o fancy tale this is ,its my
G-rievous story
B-rutal and horrifying memories
A-mbiguous future without any hope 
C-asted out of our homes and land
K-ids and families separated
H-omeless and hungry
O-verthrown from our
M-otherland 
E-mbattled , this is my refugee...
