BACK TO SENDER

Be careful what you wish for me... 
When you're wishing for my downfall 
You're already down below me
Believe it or not, but you will surely be 
I've Never lost to any opposition 
Back to sender my shield
Thanks to my guidance and protectors for steadily giving me a remedy and medicine.

What do you do with others downfall ?
I pray you experience 
Whatever you're wishing for others 
If offensive or keeps you stagnant 
You're crazy for making others feel lazy
You can't wish others bad and be good 
You must get what you give
Back to sender my remedy and medicine.

Wish me good, good be your portion 
Wish me bad, bad be your portion 
I'm steadily reciprocating accordingly 
You can't create chaos, then enjoy peace 
I pray you don't get away with 
Whatever harm you do or wish on others 
Back to sender my remedy and medicine.

My best friend

Why is it hard to say you are my best friend
Could it be the commitment to be your one friend forever
Could it be that I am scared of you not reciprocating this feeling
Why should this be so hard!?

You are the first person I want to speak to when something happens
You are the first person I look for in a room
You are the first presence I always crave 
Why should this be so hard!?

Everyone around me says you are my best friend
Anytime we talk our audience thinks we are best friends
We share the same reactions to situations 
Why should this be so hard!?

I know you are my best friend
You know I am your best friend 
Why can't we say so
Why should this be so hard!? 

In another universe

May we be free to say we are best friends
May we be brave to say we are best friends
May we be confident to say we are best friends
It shouldn’t be so hard!

HOLY RAIN REIGN-

Blessed New Day;
Father we’re ever so thankful;
For this your new day;
Father you reign;
Your liquid rain;
Reciprocating,
Covering,
 your glory flows, juices unto the trees;
And the grasses and children and grounds be;
O’ Heavenly Father you reign over all that you have done;
Rain so down your coverings on us,
Rain down your joy, peace and love;
Thank-you Elohim Father for your Holy rain/reign;
Always-
Always-
Amen

A Recent Change Of Mind

That stiff-neckedness; that boulder-like stoneness
The so-called track-travel; that perfection-proneness
The 'looking-down-upon' others as backboneless
That sharp surety of sheer, shadowless shallowness
All came to a standstill like a train on a halt.
I felt something stopping my voluntary vault.

'Take it easy'—I heard the inner self prompting.
'There's a need for reciprocating and bonding.
Perfectionism has high streams of expectations.
Thoughtlessness fills and fixes all fluctuations.
Critical, unrealistic ruthless morals
Leads to my depression, unmet goals, and laurels.

Fear, failure, procrastination, low self-esteem
Nullity and nothingness enter a clear stream.
Like a wounded dove amidst vultures, I suffer.
The environmental zeitgeist turns stone tougher.
I should be calm, cool, and consciously cogitate.
To follow out, I must mindfully meditate.

Thus, like a serene, solemn stream searching the sea
I plunged into the hunt for my lost true 'me.
Shedding that glittering gift-paper-wrapped spirit
And securing a supple self to my merit
This change of mind has now taken on newer roots.
In my thoughts, words, and deeds, bringing abundant fruits

The Night Brings Doubt

This morning I was accepting and governing in my seventh decade,
twilight crept and words without sound said, you're just a facade,
then the darkness enshrouded,
and the sheild of confidence faced the sword of doubt,

time and change are guaranteed constants,
how much time do I have,
what personal changes must I make or reluctantly accept or adapt to,
quivering qualms quake my equilibrium,

Timbuk 3 said, the futures so bright, I gotta wear shades,
but my approaching future is marching with obscurity,
one dare not peak over the horizon again,
for this man once trembled at a ghastly presence,

I've heard it's all about the journey and not the destination,
and this journey has given me so much love,
although I'm guilty of not reciprocating in equal amounts,
taking things for granted has always been a failing of mine,

all things will pass and perhaps remembered,
and journeys will change direction once in a while,
during these seven decades, I know what truly matters,
its who's face that smiles when I'm in their company.

A Lesson In Doing More

You can always be reminded that even when your an adult, You must do
more and be more.
The person who has nurtured you does not need to be taking on the world
without expecting you to take it on, alongside them.
They need you just as much as you expect, without reciprocating it, to need them at every minute of every day.
Tell them that they don't need to be on their feet today. You will do everything they do in their place.
Stop making things so easy when your fully grown because now, the simplest way of living has to be done each day. BY YOU.

Love Vs Hate

Love 
heart-felt, honest 
reciprocating, reflecting, recieving 
partners, plans, prime-suspects, prisoners
fight, fumble, fall
dangerous, deceitful
Hate

Reciprocate-

Anything preserved can be spoiled 
Everything spoiled can be rotten 
Everything rotten will die 
everything dead shall be renewed 
Come up a new seed 
Reborn reviewed,
and the cycle of infinity 
Aligned as a horizontal 8 
At it's resting state
Keeps reciprocating
 as it goes on 
and on 
and on 
over and over 
again and again
Always

When All Hope Seem Lost

The right time He expected you to on Him put all your trust
But how real could this be true
When the real test of time defines you
It is very simple to talk of
But complex to practice while most take off
The exact reason one don't see success is near
Because the weight, pain and agony of the cross seem much to bear
No one has ever been through worse 
Everyone has been up to his own case
World itself does not expect less 
It won't present you glory without messes
You may try to scotch been scum
Can you hold its taking over as they come?
Reciprocating the love at worst time would have been good to real friend 
Situation of more chase toast your knowledge that you should have mend

Check on friends and encourage people on life matters

Suicide is never an option let alone the best

A Story Beggin' To Be Told

A STORY BEGGIN' TO BE TOLD

Calling me your "Lover Man", 
you say you're my best fan...

only cos what looks like love respite,
to me my candor, you've got no insight
how our boundless bond binds so tight
and scale not-so-easily-seen new height,

don't know how you fell into oblivion,
reciprocating this feeling of love retribution.

Can't fathom how a heart can marinate & decode
a love story beggin' to be told.

An Antelope's Tale

Two antelopes, separated by a gently flowing river, casually grazed in a luscious green valley. By chance or by providence, knowing not which, they 
each looked up and across the river that separated them. As the enchanting moment was unfolding, I was reminded that I once lived in a little town
called Antelope, which was to me a most gentle and serene abode.  With gazed and targeted setting eyes, the buck locked his site on the doe as the 
female antelope upon noticing such non-stop starring, looked aghast.  But without reciprocating, she walked slowly up the hill away from the valley floor. 

The buck continued his fixation, and after his momentary idol faded from site,  he concluded that the encounter was pure chance, and that is all.  Lest that  brief moment be lost forever, the buck snapshotted, documented, and filed  away such beauty that still lies aflame in a special compartment in his heart.

Birdie Breakfast No-

Old little birdie
What's your hurry
Waiting comes gently chirping

Gummy birdie protein 
With meow color blindness
Reciprocating yummy snack

Tom tells Jerry
O'   SYLVESTER
No not   TWEETY 
that feet is up sharing tap dancing on my purse doors
Open I get out of this somehow

In the interim basically implying 
Ingestion waiting still 
Won't be no bird eating here

Ladies In Silenced Imagination

under wraps
       forbidden eyes
       reciprocating feelings
       of speculation
attachment
  remains a bond
yet
   set aside
         elevated
into poetic feelings
beyond desire
           into sublimity
nameless
faceless
in memory&desire
of
  a intimate lament

a heart of light
     appears in a figment
          of imagination
out from the shadows
so-matter-of-fact

understanding
     springs forth
from a frail vessel
an ethereal
          image of purity
transforming
          compassion
this
   lawless fantasy
of natural
               desires
