Riches fade
but
Faithfulness lasts.

Lies Over Truth

The truth hurt so bad 
that I'd rather 
believe the lies.

My Destiny

Why am I here? Why am I in this space?
My body is here, my spirit is not, what is the case?
I look at my surroundings and examine objects closely
As I’m sitting in a confined room that’s warm and toasty
I tell myself I obviously don’t belong here
This is not my destiny, but I know it’s near
These spirits are too comfortable and complacent
My spirit is solely focused on future emplacement
At the same time I need these resources and networking opportunities
So I can build bridges and uplift my community
There’s a goal in mind with a strict timeline
Cadence is key and sometimes I feel crazy like Einstein
Deep down, I know it’s part of the process for me to succeed
I’m just a vessel ready and willing to plant a seed.

For You, Not Me

What does it feel like to know everything you prayed for actually happened?
What does it feel like to know that everything you once desired has now come to past?
What does it feel like to know everything you hoped and wished for is now present?
It’s more than just a breath of fresh air.
It’s more just than a summer breeze.
It’s more than sipping libations under a shaded tree fan.
It feels like the collapsing of icebergs that are plunging in a -30 degrees splashing plane.
It feels like a rushing water rapture leading to a magnificent fall.
It feels like an eruption of a dormant melted rock.
It’s almost like nature orchestrated the events that led to this momentous feeling.
This feeling is majestic. This feeling is imperial. 
But most of all, this feeling is for another soul, not me.

Discovery

In order to start a journey 
One must take a look at its surroundings, the atmosphere
And discover what’s in the background 
To identify what needs to be discovered
One may discover more than they intend to find.

True Submission

Surrendering gives life,
To surrender is to have power
Power over every dominion
Power to change
Power to lead
Power to go untouched when every hand is against.
With every inhale and exhale
There’s a submission
To the next breath that allows
The lungs to fill up with air and release gases
That’s power within.
Whether it’s used for good or bad
So, what source do you submit?
What gets total surrender?
Whatever you choose to surrender to 
That’s what you’re responsible for.
That’s what you’re entrusted with
Don’t allow you’re fear,
Lack of belief,
Or understanding
Deter you away from your assignment.
Submit to His will!

One Love

Physical, mental, natural appeal
Don’t forget spiritual let’s be real
People don’t seem to be ‘bout that anymore
They rather sit still and not open the door
Of true sexual intimacy
The gift God gave for you to go into me
The idea of the Most High was romance
Nowadays we don’t want to give it a chance
Because of all the scheming, cheating, and lies
I’m surprised to still hear of true love that hasn’t died
With all the love music that’s ringing in our ears
You’d think there’d be lasting marriages of 30 plus years
Love we hear now is not the same
Too much scandal-ness, brokenness, deceit, and pain
Where’s the beauty, power, exclusiveness, and ecstasy
Let me repeat, God’s gift to us is sexual intimacy
Intimacy that goes past physical features
Intimacy that goes beyond mind blowing teasers
This type of intimacy is tied to your soul, tied to my soul
When you go into me we are one whole
Fraction, doesn’t matter who’s the numerator or denominator
We will always be One Love.

Present Living

Got to be in the moment. Live. Be present.
Forget the past. Don’t anticipate the future. Just live.
To presently live is to let go of anxious thoughts.
Let go of held stress baring weights. 
Let go of everything that causes you to worry day in and day out.
However, future must be blocked.
Yeah, it’s good to think about the future and plan, 
But too much futuristic planning 
Can cause us to miss out on what’s sustaining in the present.
In the present, I find peace. I find relief. 
I find presence with myself, my spirit, my soul, my God.
It’s what I look forward to.
Receiving intellect, reasoning, realizations, epiphanies,
Taking time to inhale in oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide to the earth.
Oxygen to presently live
Carbon dioxide to release whatever that doesn’t serve me.
Today, I choose to simply be and live in the present.

I Am

Sun kissed with the glow of God
Sun rays from the gold of God
I shine with the sun of God
I’m saved by the son of God
I gleam from the eyes of God
Mind of God
Child of God
I AM
God.
