Was just a fling

#Was_just_a_fling
How confused am I now , when both my mind and heart presents a different version, to my sense, as I struggle to draw sense and understanding from this matter but there are just so many blanks and gaps, there's no coherent patches of my clearity as they are dispersed, I wish I could say yes but this just don't soaks in

no attachments!  Why am I sensing roots underneath my heart, what's this collision of waves and frequencies, my body and mind catches, when a stroke of you flashes to my thought. Please don't tell me, I'm caught up in my own abnormalities, I wanna believe that but theres just too many uncertanities, blocking way to my acception, I wanna say yes but the 'no' in me, keeps changing the meaning of 'yes'

I wanna be honest but there's no honesty in denial, I wanna forget but that thought serves as a lid to my thoughts, then how could I, I wanna accept but then I don't understand, maybe I'm dripping, myb I'm illucinating, maybe that's the efffect of this confusion in me, this imbalance, this attachment, these roots, maybe it was just fling

Rain: Loving Storm

Ruthless is what they call you 
Chaos is your friend
They curse and they blame you 
for destruction you always bring 

Beaten, bruised and battered 
Hearts broken into pieces
Hopes are being shattered
Remains are pain that never eases 

Wanting to run away
Trying to control myself from falling
But no matter how hard I try
I always end up staying

A strong force I can’t resist
draws me closer to you
Slowly and ever so knowingly
I’m falling deeper as I go 

I wanted to know you care
But this answer, I have no courage to find 
Scared that I may not bear
knowing our hearts are not aligned

You are the storm
Though out of wrath you were form 
I am the rain 
And I’m bound with you despite the pain

A Droplet In Sea

My ego rising tall from lowly lay, 
I often feel: world warms up to my song 
And plays a second fiddle in my play, 
I lead a vain orchestra all day long. 
But evening twilight setting in, I brood, 
Contemplate and begin at last to see 
Me in misty shadowy solitude— 
Oh, I'm no more than a droplet in sea. 

The world's now bathed in radiance all new, 
Beauty and bliss welling up from within, 
And a window emerges with a view 
That lets me see a world not before seen. 
  Man as a mere point in infinity, 
  He’s looked as a faceless nonentity. ______________________________________________

Premium Member How R U Saved--

Sinner-man
Part of the new up rising
Compliance with his version...
   Of righteousness

While in the same, breath
If you DON'T  do things HIS way
U R Not saved 

What does GOD say...
What does the Bible  say...

All those...Demonominations
Telling  U do things only their way
And if U don't do it the denominations way
Then U R not saved.. 

Ask yourself  this question...
How do U want to he SAVeD
Denominationaly-man's way
Or by GOD way
What does the bible really say.  
Humanity  stop doing salvation your way

Premium Member Rethinking Reconstruction

Breaking down the barriers
That propped us up this whole time
Decomposing our identity down to the studs
As contemplating our next mountain to climb

Shattering our version of self
Loosening what was tightly wound
Refreshing to start seeing the whole picture
Discovering what we thought could never be found

Rightly reshuffling the deck
Rebuilding today better than before
Purposefully putting the puzzle back together
Realizing that some of the pieces don't fit anymore

But the story doesn't end there
While certain parts no longer align
It clears the space for fresh beginnings
Unlimited options ahead to mold our new design

A Psychic Connection

A psychic connection


I have planted a seed inside your mind,
So read my thoughts from time to time.
Let me become a part of your conscience;
If we move as one through this world, 
We can offer each other guidance.


We share an understanding and a way of thinking.
A poet explaining and a song writer singing.
The very best of the best;
The best we have to give.
Life is a constant test
And we must learn how to live.


Forever we are changing, evolving day to day.
In a future version of ourselves, we will know what to say.
From the babies we were, we have grown to become strong of thought.
We have passion and clarification; 
We now know all that which we have been taught and so much more.


From school until now, we are constantly learning;
From baby to adult, we are advancing.
A hope is all they had, the Mom and the Dad;
Now I am simply here, to give thanks.


The more we grow, the more we know.
After a time of being just a person that follows,
We are now strong enough to walk alone…
We are no longer a clone.

Premium Member Sequence-Country Walk

Follow the track with the scenic view,
into the wood with a carpet blue.

Between clumps of gorse in yellow garb,
along a path baked summer hard.

Around shadu ponds that teem with life,
rush and sedge amidst tall loose strife.

Into the meadow,a country stile,
contemplating I sit awhile.

2020 version

Blossom of baby's breath
soft white gorse
               crusted yellow
weeping willow
rush patterned lace 
              pastures 
a pastel green

Buttercup, daisy&comely cowslip 
mingle&mix 
           in fellowship 
swaying pelts of grass
with purple vetch & 
             ribwort plantain 

Hawthorn &
               scented woodruff
briar brambles sprawl
          in dogrose so tall
above
       harts-tongue
in
                 English rain

I Will Stand

There were nights I thought the darkness had decided for me, when silence felt endless and every breath was a battle I wasn’t sure I’d win.
But even then, something small in me refused to give in — a spark, a whisper saying not yet.

Strength came in pieces: mornings I rose anyway, days I kept going with a heavy heart, moments I chose to believe life could still surprise me.
Hope didn’t roar; it pulsed softly, reminding me I was still here — and that being here was enough to begin again.

So I gather what remains: courage I didn’t know I had, softness I once hid, tears that taught me how to feel. I rebuild myself slowly, honestly.

I will stand — not because the past didn’t hurt, but because the future matters.
I will stand — because breaking open revealed a version of me that still believes in better days.
I will stand — because someone out there is holding on by a thread, and threads can become lifelines.

If my voice shakes, let it.
If my knees tremble, let them.

I am still standing — not perfectly, not bravely every day, but honestly, the way real people do when life knocks them down and they rise anyway.

Strength isn’t loud; it’s the quiet decision to keep showing up for your own life.
I’m still learning how. Still figuring out who I am after everything I’ve survived. Still trying to believe I deserve days that don’t hurt.

But I’m here. And so are you.

If today feels heavy, if you’re tired in a way sleep can’t fix, if you’re holding yourself together with hope and habit — hear this:

You’re not failing.
You’re not weak.
You’re human.

Humans break, heal, rise, and rise again.

You will stand too — in your own time, your own way — not because you never fell, but because you refused to stay down.

And that is enough.

Premium Member I Love You Jesus

~I Love You Jesus~ 
(Couplets) 


Just when I thought, I was alone and so lost, 
You came to live inside my heart, and paid for me the greatest cost, 
Of all, and since then You never left my side no matter what I have done, 
Or what in my life I've chosen to do.In my soul you shine like the sun 

You're the most wonderful thing that happened to me.You make me whole, 
Without You to guide me I would be now in an empty darkened hole, 
Without You by my side, this life would be so worthless and very mean, 
Without You, my world would be so cruel and empty and so coldly grim. 

I  know that there's nobody like Him in the whole world, you see 
He touches my heart and my soul, everyday, in every conceivable way, 
He's made everything for me so completely brand-new, you see, 
His sweet love fills  the emptiness of my sinful soul, He sets me free. 

His love is the greatest therapeutic healer  that every man should know, 
And without His Love and Grace there wouldn't be, any love left to show.

Redefining Love in a Loud World

Sex is not love,
it never was,
just a fire that burns and asks for nothing beyond the rush of a moment’s pause.

Dating is not love,
not just dinners, not just calls that stretch till the night feels whole—
not just two names tangled in a digital scroll.

Talking 24 hours is not love either,
words can flow like rivers and still remain empty at the shore,
sound without soul, echoes asking for more.

Love is something wider than the sky,
not a cage, not narrow, not something that asks the soul to lie.
It is vast—like silence between two understood hearts,
where even distance cannot tear them apart.

Love is when someone stays in your worst,
not because they have to, but because leaving you would hurt them first.
It is presence without demand,
a quiet holding of your trembling hand.

Love is when they understand your silence like a language,
when your broken pieces don’t need translation or passage.
When your pain doesn’t need to be spoken out loud,
yet they hear it beneath every crowd.

Love is not blame, not war disguised as care,
not scapegoats thrown into emotional air.
It doesn’t point fingers when things fall apart,
it learns how to stay without breaking the heart.

Love is what this generation slowly forgets to feel,
lost in things that glitter but never heal.

It is not money, not gifts that fade in time,
but happiness shared in a rhythm, almost like a rhyme.

A love letter written with shaking hands and truth,
more valuable than anything polished or smooth.

Love is expressing, not impressing,
not changing someone into a version you’re guessing.

It is seeing them real, raw, and free,
no masks, no pressure of who they “should be.”

And maybe love is incomplete, still becoming, still true—
not a finished story, but a feeling that grows with you.
