Dweller of our heart“The essence in us is the same as the essence of the sun.” — Unseeking Seeker
••••••••••••••••••••••••
At the beginning—
before Satan lost his place in heaven,
Man had but one thought—only the good, pure one.
Our thoughts were like pearls shining in conscience’s trove,
beacons of hope, our unwavering guide.
Our hearts were like the sun—
they shed light on knowledge, and...

DEVIL IN THE DARKThe sun shone in bewilderment,
Scornfully it scorch,
As Rose plead her fifth amendment,
Her good nature made a strife,
Lea smirk in disdain ,
Saith her world has ended.
Twice fairer than Lea,
In Lea heart lies deceit,
She whispers in Rose ear,
Come and sit, where Serpent hisses,
I will smother thee with kisses,
Honey lies secrets not known,
In Lea lives the honey.
Thrice shy,...

Reformulation of sinReformulation of sin
Homeocentrism combatant
Sociopathy redefinition
Is for Intellect palatable
Apparently imposure of sin
Kills source collective the bias
Care you don't have to bear
Of neither the sides of compliance
Rules parts of humans invent
May not valid be for evaluation
Mortal the thus very sin
Is imposing your limitation
No one you are to demand
Sets of your wrongly conditions
Thus no naive...

Coast of Maine
A QUIET RETREAT-PART ONE
I retreated to the edge of Maine,
To a beachside estate where thoughts remain
Unsettled, swirling with cloud and tide
A love poem’s seed buried deep inside.
A heart that longs, a mind at war,
For she I love loves me more
She is bound to another, so the battle stays...

Sin Debt
God’s justice necessitated
that my sin debt be paid.
This debt wasn’t something
that I could resolve.
I can still recall,
the simple prayer that I prayed.
I said dear God,
forgive me, a sinner.

Endless conflicts I'm torn between two distant worlds ~
one steeped in wickedness and sin,
the other pure and righteous;
my mind drifts like oil on water.
Alluring is the glory of heaven,
promised if I remain pure and holy,
yet enticing is the frivolity
hidden in jollity they call "sin."
My mind imagines the afterlife the Bible depicts,
yet I savour worldly pleasures my flesh...

SinsWe sparkle when we feel aligned
We flicker when its too much inside.
Overstimulated when sanity is compromised.
Flash there goes time, and you Lived a life full of sin without confessions. Always thinking he will save me. Yet, you overcompemsated for your own lack of time, causing a pause the day before the end of time....

Oh, WiCkEd Queen, lyricsWhat's up miss popular? People know about your greed
Ya, got the text. The "Hey, dotard, don't talk to me freak,"
The average joe, and those silly electronics"

Preparing to feed your lust, her dinner platter ...

The survival and demonisation being blackAcceptance equals survival
Survival equals safety
Comfort equals invisibility
And invisibility is vital
For us to live a somewhat peaceful life
'Somewhat' because they even kill us in silence
They even kill us despite our compliance
When they see us we are greeted with violence
There is a method to the existence of being black
A formula so...

His Broken SoulHis Broken Soul
I was a spark in morning’s light,
But that... has faded out of sight.
I don’t know, Father—do You forgive?
Yet clouded with pride, I struggle to live.
My heart bleeds.
I only wanted to be seen.
But it’s been centuries—maybe more—
And still, I stand outside Your door.
Father, I confess,
I did You wrong—and I regret.
But this...

GenesisWhen the land was smooth, life brand-new
In Eden, there lived one, then two
Since the Earth's dawn, man walked as youth
Life brand-new, when the land was smooth
In the garden were two sweet blooms
Under the care of watchful grooms
Viscous phrases made ears harden
Two sweet blooms were in the garden
Between grapevines, our foe hid
Still in great ruling halls...

The Crown of Silence: A Lament for King Charles IIIYou wear a crown forged in centuries of silence,
Not of gold, but of tears—each gem a wound,
Each jewel a stolen breath from lands unnamed.
The sun never set on your empire, Charles,
But neither did its shadow.
At seventy-three, you ascend a throne
Built on the backs of broken nations.
Malawi mourns not your reign, but its own hunger.
India remembers...

Disturbing Untold StoryI heard a story today, it felt just like mine,
In this scary, monster city, it made my heart pine.
Someone hurt themselves, tore their own skin, you see.
Yes, a story just like mine, it came right back to me.
You are brave, so much braver than I.
You told your hurt out loud, under the open sky.
My pain,...

Battle royal for loveSo many beauties to choose from,
None could be referred to as scum.
They becloud my sense of duties ~
To choose from, so many beauties
Many of them wear their smiles proud,
My sense of duties they becloud.
Their hearts beg for true love and care.
Their smiles proud, many of them wear.
The love I will give, none can peg,
For true...

A THIN LINEA thin line splits good from evil
between grace and the disgrace
between being the apple of God's eye
or ab ally of the devil.
It’s not etched in stones or scrolls
but marked in choices we make
blurred by thoughts we justify
and truths we’re too afraid to face.
We dress our sins in silence
and wear our virtues out loud
forgetting that heaven...
