An Everlasting Rose

Let this rose be cherished with love.
                                      Let its beauty beautify your resemblance.
                              Let the aroma mix with your fragrance
                      so the scent can cloud over me,
               attract me, hypnotize me so my
          love can never disappear.

                                                    Except this rose!

                                                -Sincerely Brandon-

I Want To...

I want to achieve at something and not be degraded.
I want to change my life because I'm sick of jail.
I want to love so many people, I mean true godly love.
I want to stay alive long enough to see my kids grow.
I want to remain sober so I won't put other lives at risk.
I want to actually be free of the devil and all his way's.
I want to awake out of darkness for the sparkling of thy sun.
I want to have a future with you Lovie, I love you forever.
I want to improve in my education, I know its the key.
I want to be a father to my kids, I let them down enough.
I want to be as wise as the men who walked with our Lord.
I want to be forgiven of my sins and live righteously.
I want to be able to tell my great-grandparents I miss'em so.
I want to erase all the worries I brought upon my mother, I love you so.
I want to be that person that's trusted and respected.
I want to never have to cry again because of pain and guilt.
I want to be able to dream again, come back dreams, please!
I want to... I want to cry right now cause of how I feel inside.
Everyday that passed has been a nightmare for the last 16 years.
I want to go back to being that sweet adorable little kid with the 
brightest smile and maturity of a man, grown man.
I want to, I know I do, I must and I will.

                                                                         Sincerely,
Brandon Johnson

I Am {______}

Give or take, I am a friend.
     A friend of yours as well as Gods.
Even though you do not know of me,
     you have accepted me within your heart.
For I am of much importance to you.
     I'm like the root from a rose that once
     blossomed right beneath your nose.
My aroma is what befriends you. 
     and my presence is what controls you.
With me comes much integrity and pride that
     shines like I am thy sun.
Who out there would not love to have me?
     Is there anyone who wishes to understand?
Forever I am he, forever you will adore me.
     You read this to discover, 
you read this to recognize meaning.
     Can you accept me as I am ? 
Cause I am what I am for you.


                           Somebody Pray 4 Me
                                           Sincerely Troublesome!

Brandon: If its Gods will, then definitely. But first
let me pull you over this wall.

Nicole: You know my faith is not so high.

Brandon: Just close your eyes and believe. If you 
shall fall then we will still be together.

Nicole: How you figure, you coming with me?

Brandon: I made a vow to always be with you.
So where you go I wanna be also.

A Message To the Father

Everyday I wake up I pray for my
life as well as others. I thank God
for all his blessings, protection,
and the love from my mother.
Where will I be Lord without your
healing, mercy, and forgiveness?
Is there really life after death
Lord? If so, I'm ready, I'm finish!
My failures out-weighs my success.
When I gave up I continued to strive.
Continuing brought pain unto others, 
I understand why know one wants
me in there lives.
I have no excuses, only regrets because
I made the decisions that became mistakes.
The most important was not believing in
you when you forgave. I Lost the faith.
I'm still alive father, only because
of your will and your purpose.
You shall seek with the whole heart 
and thou shall find. I can see clearly now.
I've recovered from being blind.

Sincerely Brandon !

-gods Will-

From beneath to beyond,
everyday is the sun.
One side to the other
is how these clouds run.

Visible to invisible,
is every star in the sky.
One shape, two shapes,
our moon doesn't fly.

Century upon century
we accept life the way it come.
When something goes away nothing changes,
we can not change what has been done.

Whats to be done is Gods will, 
so lets believe and do our part.
Trust in the Lord and pray to him,
ask for him to hearken our hearts.

Just as we look forward to the stars,
moon, sun and the clouds.
Seeking our Lord, Jesus Christ will for sure
bring you joy and certainly make you proud.


                                                 Somebody Pray 4 Me !!

Dear Lord!

Today I awake and pray for peace
Let your ears be attentive and your mercy release
Hug us all dear lord because we need your love
Righteousness has left us all and went up above
My prayers are for you and only you to answer
This is an urgent prayer, for wickedness has spread like cancer
Faith produces much patience, for you lord I must
There are men that play for keeps, in you they do not trust
I'm doing what I can father, that is to encourage and strengthen others
Am I failing? Have I become weak?
Men find it hard to love there own brother
Hatred out-weighs love while anger prevails over respect
I'm stuck in between two wars but I'll out last them both with
the shield of faith. It's yours to elect.

                                           Somebody Pray 4 Me
                                             Sincerely, Troublesome!

I Ask You Lord Why ? 2000

Trials and tribulations are coming now more than ever. I'm 
experiencing them so rapidly that my mind, body and soul has 
frozen in this season of cold weather. 
I'm frozen because of questions and challenges I've been through. 
Asking my Lord why and what it is he wants me to do. You my Lord
has  the power of the world, so why does one have to be raped? 
You say thou shall not kill but you give access to the guns.
It's wasn't you who put them in the hands of killers but gave us the ability to make them. 
Also in our time we're killing ourselves with drugs. 
Why are they here on earth Lord, why is my body filled with slugs? 
There are questions running through my inter-self so deep. Like 
why it was me shot in 99 that laid me down to sleep. 
Thanks to you father I was blessed and woke from the line of fire. 
I asked why was I given life again that I so much desire? 
You said it wasn't my time, that you needed here in this world. 
I thank you father because I was not ready to leave my baby girl. 
Why all the hatred from the prejudice cops we see? How come 
you don't clear there heads from all thy negativity? 
There is just so much pain in my heart to my head.
Once again I took three shots and was later pronounce dead. 
In the vision of my eyes I saw your face and felt a spirit 
that brought me through. 
I ask again Lord why and what is it you want me to do?

                                               Sincerely, Brandon
                                            -Somebody Pray 4 Me-

Inspired By You: a Dedication

I just can't stop writing poems about 
you because you inspire me to uphold
and seek out my talents God has
given to me. I love to write and I'm 
learning to love my life. Writing 
and living is becoming to be a
foundation built from befriending you
and you loving me. My poems are
based upon feelings and life as
we live. Both of these things I have
with you. I feel as though that's all 
I need. Oh how great it is to have 
a friend, lover, or spouse to share
words of encouragement when one is
in distress. I've been down that road
many of times and for each one you
were there. I plan to carry on with
this as well as my life with you.
I will rise above the ordinary!
This is the beginning and I will make it through.


                               Sincerely, Brandon
