Building my castle to the kingdomBuilding castles within my own confinement
only to be hit with the harshest of realities
& replaying what it means to be broken, to heal, and relapse
over and over again.
Numbing the weight of so many life choices
Drowning out screams from all different voices.
Lord please me show me your grace.
Seeing myself in the...

If You Love MeIf you really do love me,
Do what I say, said Jesus.
Don’t delay or put it off
To some other time
Only today is your special day
To do what I say
So - do what I say today.
Tomorrow’s tomorrow
Completely unknown
Your strong expectation
Your highest of hopes
Your plans and intentions
No certainty know.
No matter how sure
You think you control
God alone...

Writing to Jesus
I take my pen, hesitant to write
poetries, moments so tender, alive
like the music that choruses
through my spirit, in inklings of light
breathless verses, visions
coloring pages with what survives
my last 60 years,
the days when I knew, beyond
stirrings of hope, inspirations
notes of serenity – faded
feelings, blessings
remembering what it means to be
part of something much bigger than...

Pages TurnPages turn, a fresh new start,
Agree with your Maker, hear His heart.
In that daily solitary space,
Step beyond – hear the sound of the race.
See anew, relate afresh,
If doubt remains, do not rush!
Press in prayer, let persistent faith arise,
Watch the impossible vaporize.
Reposition, stride ahead,
Claim the call for which you were led.
Do not fear walls, just break...

Last Days in the EmpireSpoken Word: “Last Days in the Empire”
By Alejandro Diego Z. MA Psych
Is America the Next Babylon?
They built this dream on a haunted field,
Blood in the bricks, but the scars don’t heal.
Liberty whispers with a slave's appeal,
Signed the deal, now we spin the wheel.
Foundations cracked from greed and steel,
Preachin’ hope but forgot to kneel.
Talkin’ peace...

Praise The LordPraise the Lord
Again I say praise the Lord
Give Him all your undying love
You know your peace comes from above
Praise your God
Again I say praise your God
Linger in His halls of justice
Where inner peace flows from Him
See the Father as your all and all
There's nothing the world can satisfy
Let's hold on to our hopes and dreams
Hopes...

In Him Can Peace Be FoundMy hands are tied
My heart is bound
For the love of my dear Jesus
Only in Him can peace be found
The Lord says search your heart
And you will find Me there
With arms opened wide
He'll hold you with great care
Peace shall come to you dear friend
Abundance in one's life
"Hold on to me" dear Jesus said
Hold Me close, so...

TO LABORING IN FAITH AND LOVEWhen love is working,
hate is busy challenging;
faith, busy winning:-
Where love is working,
melting away all despair,
hate is as ice in the sun:-
In labors of love,
injustice is defeated;
and justice is won:-
Let love’s heart lead you:
the fuel-pump of your courage,
justice’s compass:-
Be a love worker,
dismantling oppression,
building liberty:-
There’s crucifixion,
and there is resurrection;
be God’s laborer:-

A fence and an unforgettable memory2024.5.26
Sunday, My house was broke in.
The next day, you messaged me "Good morning".
Two hours later, I explained about the robbery.
"Invaded?? i went past and saw
The police van this morning.
I was a bit worried that
Something might have happened."
From that day, every evening,
You came to my place and stay till quite late.
You made sure I was protected,
Until...

Welcome HomeWith pure light, you cannot see.
With pure darkness, you cannot see.
With both, you will see the beauty of life surrounding you.
Mountains, Sea, sky, and life will sing knowing your truth.
Now, your journey begins through the night stars and space.
Your soul now remembers this loving, unknown embrace.
You are home, welcomed in love as you swirl in...

Calmness Midst Cemetery CallCalmness bids me as grief strives to cease
Enabling sincere thanksgiving-prevalence
Midst gloom, hiding serenely still while
Exemplifying grace under pressure... yet
Tears cannot anymore control their fall
Exposing prayer of my heart for closure
Recognizing heaven's victory over death since
Yon the grave is eternal bliss with the Source of life.
