I flow like a river that moves around rocks,
Molding like water splashed into cup or box;
Like tides conforming to the force of the moon,
A stream twisting through a bending valley's tune.
A soft air slipping through the narrowest cracks,
A wind that changes paths with no stops and tracks;
Like a smoke coiling around every corner,
A kite adjusting to swift gusts or blower.
I am a clay designed by God's unseen hands,
Being adaptable, my mind understands;
I am a master key that suits any lock,
As the Lord Jesus opens the gate of His flock.
The Holy Spirit reminds me of seasons,
For I am leaves that turn with climes in reasons.

No need for long talk
Because the long talk
Keeps you stuck
That sucks
It's energy draining.
You can only unfold
What you behold
You're only powerful
Over what you can control
Be guided;
Diligence is the master key to life.
Welcome to the month
Of Pride and Awareness
June to be precise
The sixth month of the year
I'm wishing you all peace, love and more.

once that door is open
there may be no looking back
uncertainty is a devil with two heads
and there’s little reasoning to be had
it’s a swinging door that’s
sometimes spinning out of control
its hinges are known to be defective
and there’s never been a master key
it’s often that the door to uncertainty
opens over an unforgiving cliff on open sea

in a world where goodness may seem pointless
where kindness may seem but a drop in the sea
karma is a concept that won't get old
for peace of mind it is the master key

Different keys
One suit only
For one true lock.
Too many keys
Too many locks
One master key.
A ruin lock
Can be repaired
By locksmith.

I think that everybody would agree
that they also had their fair share of misery
when they were stuck in the friend zone
with no way to reach the end zone.
There is a big welcome sign at the entry
but there is no master key
so those who are in transit
can never open the exit.
So when your crush calls you a good friend
just know that it signals the end
of your hopes and dreams
and the beginning of your inner screams.

It has been along time to arrive to this shift
I am grateful for this amazing gift
Even though many had to leave even my mom
Back to the state were she came from
What harm it only had to mature me through my tears
I left and came back when destiny had its final gear
To move forward when this vehicle went in drive
The light turned green and I Am still alive
Passing an exam called life would be the extra credit
An on going answer to a teachers message
What headache called misery kept ringing in my head through the years
A cycle was changing but a sound was clear to hear
Here comes an eclipse for change this season
Everyone have there assumption and everyone have there reasons
What treason the judge has drooped their gavel
Mistaken identity but there was a different cop
Called the masters of the universe holding all the keys
The only diveine is the master KEY!

Something has you really dazed
You seem lost and kind of phased
Confused, hurt and really blue
Tell me what happened to you
What made you feel like this
Taking away all your bliss
Leaving you in a weird place
There's a look upon your face
That is new--your eyes are blank
It's like somebody took a crank
Winding you up--letting go
Watching your emotions flow
From a wound up shattered heart
That has been bruised by a shot
Of despair and heartache
Leaving you to bend and break
By a person that can hold
The master key--turning you cold
From the frigidness of steel
Stuck in your back as you feel
A twirl of emptiness and loss
Take that key out--try to toss
The memories in your mind
Hallucinations will not wind
You up if you find
It is just all from a time
Of a bad and upset past
Shake it out it will not last
Reality will soon shine through
Happiness heading back to you

Mothers, so dear who have shed many a tear still, they've persevered for many years. If with this, you can relate then you know moms carry a tremendous amount of weight and would never deviate from keeping things straight.
When life would drop a bomb, we want to take it out on mom. That would hurt to the core, make mom very sore but she remained calm, when she picked up her Bible and started to read Psalms.
Through all the stress and through the strife, she still managed to live a good life while trying her best to raise us right. So, when life became a bit too rough, The Good Lord said, you've had enough. Gave it your best. Passed Life's Test and stayed strong, it's time to come Home, never felt so alone.
Why I don't cry? I'm on standby and ready to fly. Even so, mom had to depart, she took with Love in her heart. Love is The Master Key which has unlocked The Door, she has stepped into Infinity.
So, I don't hate instead I celebrate because I know mom has stepped through Heaven's Pearly Gates. Although I do feel a bit hollow, I pray to God, I'm worthy to follow. Moms, stay strong, you are our backbone, you're never alone.

Like the Zues to Prometheous
You’ve gifted me a cruel fate
My heart is torn, my love you hate.
A crow greets me to eat my heart,
For it to heal, then be eaten again.
My love, my pain, my shattered dreams,
You've left me lost in silent screams.
You ask if we can stay friends,
But I must pretend your words
Don’t make my heart rend.
For every day, I see your face,
The ghost of you, in every place.
Though you don't love me, still you stay,
Knowing I don’t have the power to go away.
I lock the door to my heart,
But you hold the master key,
It's a punishment I must endure,
Loving you, forevermore.
But I'll hold on to the memories,
Of the love that used to be.
And though my heart is broken,
I'll keep the love, forever unspoken.

My baggage had at last caught up with me.
It and I had parted ways some years past;
tossed out and thrown away the master key.
But here it is, returned; the die is cast.
It had been round the carrousel before;
I saw it once or twice but never claimed.
Now, suddenly arrived at my front door;
I'm here, I'm back, it boastfully proclaimed!
What damage can a piece of baggage do?
A lot, it seems, if you live Mitty lies
and on false premise, unfriendly debts accrue.
So I find myself, to no great surprise,
again a member of the bourgeoisie.
My baggage had at last caught up with me.

You came astride resplendent
With acquisitions of wealth underfoot
Promising every door and lock
you possessed a master key too
You promised gluttony till never
stop sweating only the very best
cuts of meat
A seat just for i to stand alone
A golden tethered throne with
crown and mistress to follow
You promised adulation throngs
of kneeling crowd's
You promised me nirvana
To oversee
But never once did you tell
me or forewarn me of the pitfalls
Lurching in the shadows in front
not behind me
You stole a march by caressing
both my hand
Left with paper the right with cloth
Under the pretense all the while
that i was in fact the boss
But it was nothing more than
cotton candy sugar overload
That fizzled out once placed
in mouth and bridge the saliva
on the tounge

Dear John the Beloved,
spread me; your gospel
and be baptized in my Jordan...
let your tongue speak diverse kisses to my lips
as you read and flip through the heavy breasted pages of Psalms
simmering slowly down the breadth of my nude hips
with tickling fingerings, way down to Jordan,
where I'd baptize you - my convert;
in streams of cums and echoes of holy moans
as you pray open my liquid pool that drowns you
with the thrusting of the sceptre
between your Pillar which is the master key.
and me?
I lie, beneath your Depth; a quivering flesh
suspended from reed fragile bone
to be revived by the Prophet.
