sealed inside a heart's dominion

Leave me be,
You have no dominion
Over me.
Stop trying to control me
And mold me falsely
Let me be ,
What God made me
To be.

to express a post match opinion
then bodyguards will instinctively exercise their dominion.

I am the architect of my own undoing, crafting a fortress of sorrow to guard against others' touch. It is a bittersweet dominion, the only realm I truly know.

Honesty

H- e became as unto man,
O- ur sin he did bear.
N- o doubt had he within, for
E- ternity he gave.
S- in no more hath dominion,
T- rust and love he's given.
Y- es! He arose supreme.

Love Waves

Calmness stirs to gentle swells
Passions of love portend
Amorous dominion there dwells
In the love waves they send
Two lovers gently reach
Across this ocean wide
On the love waves of each
And reach the other side

Freedom

So much to say
But, the glimpse of light
Took my seat
Left me in awe 
Of his big gentle smile
Passing on anemic, passing in strength 
Stagnancy retired
The eagle fly freely and back hunting again
Long live Dominion
Form: Nonet

A Loss Of Dominion

The raw material
of America
intrinsically damned
Its nature
and character
lost out of hand

Divisive
vindictive
self-interest gone wild
A narcissists
graveyard
— misused to beguile

Premium Member Opinions

I won't cut your opinion,
Even if we disagree.
Each of us has a dominion.
The 'truth' is what we see.

Some, lock in disagreement, 
Then counter with persistence.
To views that are recurrent.
I think I'll keep my silence.

Premium Member Contrary to Popular Opinion

      Contrary to popular opinion
      the man of the house
         does not even share dominion

       with his wife, who runs the whole show
       determining who comes and who goes

         ~ leading him around by the nose

Premium Member Love Is the Victor

resurrection waits
my love will be raised to life
it won't stay entombed

believe it is true
break the seal of indifference
roll away that stone

a burst of new life
death has lost its dominion
love is the victor

My Lord, I implore Thee, 

Spare me the crown, of the most powerful

Kingdom on earth, to wear

My Lord, I know how delayed my coming to you is

For that, Your mercy, with all my heart I implore

The gates of Your luminous dominion to open

So as my soul lingers in darkness no MORE!

The Lost Dominion

Nobody wants
to be here
But no one
ever leaves

Nothing lasts
forever
But forever
will deceive

Nowhere is that
foreign place
That lives inside
us all

Where from the lost
dominion
The devil
— makes his call

Lavish Love

If the soul wanders and is empty hate has dominion
Taste not the creature of hate fill the soul with love
Hate can deceive love if no love is there to receive it
Hide love from hate and protect the soul from it

Taste no anger for that is the start of hate
