The Way You Do...

I love the way your lips sing the melody of love so sweet
Caressing my mind with the rhythm of your soul

I love the way your heart leaps into my arms inviting my warmth,
Encouraging my rhyme

I love the way you move me with emotions so deftly applied to seamless
Cracks in the dark recesses of my soul…healing me…embracing me…
Loving me

I love the way your body hums in time with the music of forever…
Forever yours…forever mine…forever…

I love the kiss of your smile, the scent of your soul, the warmth of your mind
I love the promise of your touch, the skill of your desire, the thrust of your truth

I love the way you love me the way I love you the way we love
I love the inner you, the outer you, the whole you

I love the way you sear my soul with the softest brush of your endearing heart
I love the way you move me, embrace me…encourage me…love me

I love the way you do…me…mind…soul….body…me

"A Dying Wish"

To be the hand that gently
sweeps life's tears away.
To catch the falling tendrils
of soundless pain.
To be the breath of peace that
hugs the battered hearts and minds.
To echo through the cavernous
depths of blinded will and hate.
To be the voice that soothes
the beast;
that quells its raging inferno of destruction.
To watch the child of destiny
evolve to form a world of light
and beauty.
To see a place of rarest bloom
emerge from the pit of great despair.
That is My Dying Wish

A New Day

As daylight spreads its eagle's
wings 'cross heaven's naked
splendour,
shadows race against the tide
of morning rose and April spring;

Dewdrops dance to lilting tunes
Atop their emerald stages,
While soft refrains from feathered
bills
Fill the skies with tinkling praises.

The sun with all its radiant beauty
Rises from its bed of night,
And reaches out with slow precision,
Embracing earth with arms of light.

A gentle breath of morning air
Sweeps lovingly o'er its templed floors
And brings with it the fragrant smell
Of friendships dear and love eternal.

'Dance of Midnight'

Sadness stroked its
filmy veil with fingers light
and satin smooth
against the silent ripple
of unshed sorrow.

Its eyes of darkest midnight
revealed a depth of soullessness
entrapped within a hollow cave.

A sigh escaped its tepid lips
to echo within the silent tomb.

While fleeting sparks
of unwanted light
inhaled the blackened perfume
of darkness
to drown beneath the quiet flood
of sadness: deep and lasting

"Sowing in Tears"

Sometimes its so hard to think of that verse in the Bible where it says God will never give us more than we can bare, because when we are at our lowest points and the pain just keeps coming its easier to think we cannot make it...we cannot get past the pain. At that point how do you even think about or consider sowing good seed? pain, anger, fear, depression, they all blind us to the greater good...to the chance to use our hurt for Gods good. I know, I sound like its the easiest thing to do when in reality its not. I know. I've been there. I've walked in those shoes before. I've told myself I can't make it...its better to just give up...surrender to the darkness inside they call depression. But that was before I became acquainted with that little verse that told me that whatever I was going through was not strong enough to bring me down because God promised He would NEVER give me more than I can bare!! Praise God for that promise because it made a HUGE difference in my life. I've hurt more than I thought it possible to hurt....felt so sad I thought I would drown in it....sunk so low I felt my soul being buried alive BUT I remembered that promise! I remembered that promise! and thank you Jesus I was able to get up! get up and walk! get up and say I will NOT be brought low! My God has promised that in the midst of my tears I am capable and able to sow His seed! He gave me that assurance and the same applies to you. Someone out there is seeing Gods strength and love and compassion and forgiveness through your tears. You've seen Him work miracles in your life. You've felt Him move in your life. How can you not sow in tears?? It hurts for a moment but joy comes in the morning!

New and Confident in Christ

I read this mornings devotion and so many memories and thoughts ran through my mind. they all centered around one thing....am I truly new and confident in Christ?

I'm 'new'....yes, scars and all and still with a few bumps here and there but I'm still 'new'. I'm not the same person I was 15 years ago. BUT....am I 'confident' in Christ?? hmmm....that's the question isn't it.

The truth is, for many of us, try as we might we can't seem to let go of our human sinful nature that has us questioning the validity of being 'confident' in Christ. It's so easy to say that we are but for many, the saying is in complete contrast to the actual believing whole heartedly, without reservations.

Sin has corrupted our entire mindset into believing that we can't completely 'trust' or be 'confident' in a God we can't see when we can't do the same with our fellow man! We still think of God on humanity's terms instead of on His DIVINE terms. I doubt we're even aware that that's what we do a lot of the times when we hesitate to put our trust and confidence in Christ.

So here's a thought...let's work on remembering that He is NOT like man...He is NOT going to fail us...His promises ARE true....and He will NEVER leave us alone! Once we can accept those divine terms of His existence then being NEW and CONFIDENT in Christ will become like second nature to us.

I started out by saying 'am I truly new and confident in Christ?' hmmm.....well, I can honestly say...I'm a work in constant, CONSTANT progress but I'm closer now than I was five minutes ago. God has done so much...TOO much, for me! I can't NOT be confident that day by day even at life's worst moments, I can count on Him to be there for me!

That's basically what being confident in Christ entails. Knowing and trusting in Him and His ability to see you through all the what ifs and whatevers and the what would/could/should bes'

Set Me Free

That voice will destroy you from the inside out! It will pick at you, at your emotions, your self esteem, your worth....its like a flesh eating bacteria that eats away at you. Stop listening to that voice! Stop allowing it to ruin your relationships (marriage, sibling, parental, friendship, work, children) because if you stop and think about it, you'll realize that's exactly what that voice is doing! So stop listening to it! It will strip away your self esteem and bring you so low, so beyond the deepest depths of despair that the very idea of hope will seem beyond your reach...you'll do and say and act in ways you wouldn't normally, and its signature mark will always be a sense of rejection, a feeling of failure, a need to just give up....STOP LISTENING TO THAT VOICE! Jesus came and died for us, died for our sins so that we would be set free....SET FREE from all that that destructive little voice want us to believe. We spend so much time listening to it and concentrating on it that we eventually hear no other voice....not even Gods voice. Jesus has set us free! Let go of that other voice. Pray every waking moment of every day for that voice to be removed even from the very bottom of your subconscious where its lain buried for so long doing its worst. Pray for deliverance from it....Pray to be free of its grasp and then hold on tight to Gods promises....His Word...but most importantly once you hear and recognize GOD's voice...NEVER LET IT GO!! ask him now to set you free..!

Unspoken Melody

I'm consumed with thoughts of you
Dreams still to reach
Hope undefiled

To love as richly, as clearly, as passionately as easily as breathing
...Is to breathe you

My mind is consumed with thoughts of you
Moments caught in midstream...mid-dream...slowed scenes

Snapshots past and present
Reflect your future...my future...our future

My heart is consumed with thoughts of you
Racing...drowning..buried in you

To love and to cherish
To have and to hold
To be with you...in you...around you
Be enriched by you
That is my solemn vow

Consumed with thoughts of you
I dream with eyes wide open and arms wrapped tight around the essence that is you

Waiting...longing...waiting...

Dreaming of you...

A Jamaican Sunset

Voluptuous crimson tides
spread their tentacles
across earth's horizon as
tantalizing peeps of bright
canary gold wound its way
throughout the threads.

A purple haze of shadowed light
touched the heart of our azure sky,
sweeping its way through the
ever-growing web of amber-speckled
heaven.

Lush emerald hues slipped
beneath dusk's smoke-grey veil;
the kiss of life for a dying day
rebirth of a tropical night.

This Thing Called Love

I don't know what love is.
I've never experienced it.
This need to be around you,
Feeling complete only with you.
What does it mean?
I cry - you dry. I laugh - you smile.
I hurt - you feel. I love - you love.
What is this thing?
What does it mean to love?
What does it mean to love someone?
It eludes me. Continues to confuse me..
Where did this come from?
The desire to love and be loved.
That I understand - conceptualization.
But what does it all mean?
To have and to hold from this day forward.
To love and to cherish as long as there is life.
Committed to each other.
Respecting each space.
Growing together - growing old together.
Happy, sad, angry - emotions all real.
Building life as one unit.
Desiring to be just one unit.
Existing for this sanctioned unit.
Understanding why you are a unit.
Accepting each other as one unit. Is this love?
I don't know what love is.
I've never experienced it.
But I'd like to.

Truth Be Told

I gotta be honest...
I can't think
I can't sleep
I can't eat.
My body seems out of sync.
My mind is restless...caught up...distracted.
I don't know if I'm coming or going.

I can't lie down
I can't sit up
I'm out of it....over it...consumed.
I keep praying for deliverance from this inner turmoil.

Sweat beads
Stomach muscles tighten
Moans escape through compressed lips
I ache...I tremble...
Trapped in this onslaught of feeling

Feeling
Feeling

Desperately needing the pain from this godforsaken ulcer to end

RIGHT NOW!!

Can I Taste Your Smile...

'I want to inhale your scent

taste your skin,

embrace your being;

To watch you sleep as dawn's first kiss caresses your face

while feather like fingers of morning light slowly dance along your soon to be awakened frame.

Soft hands brush gently, glide effortlessly

seek knowingly and yet as if for the first time

innocently

I want to embrace you, consume you, light a fire beneath you

to watch you explode in the aftermath

engulfed

ravaged

enflamed.

I want to know you, your smell, your smile, your mind

I want to know your soul

to feel it, taste it, touch it, be ensnared by it

To awaken the slumbering beast and release it from its cage

arousing, exciting, all encompasing

The true embodiment of man...

the man...

one man...

you...

I want to taste your body, your mind, your spirit...you

But first....I want to taste your smile'

The Autobiography

Can I take your picture?

Frame you in my designated shot

Can I write my name beside yours?

On the kappa ‘autograph me’ spot?

In a cursive or a bold script

Large italics or the Roman norm

On a parchment or a printed page

Dressed in darkened greys and faded yellows

Write my name right next to your name

Fully capped or not at all

With a felt tip of a fountain pen

Either one will do the job.

Picture Perfect

Bathed in gold and dark auburn hues

The gilded edge of heaven’s new dawn

Embraces the birth of light and sound

The silent sweep of sun-kissed earth

Emerges from the dark of the fading night

Exploding with rich, exotic scents

Of earth’s first breath and dawns first kiss

The day has barely just begun

And already my thoughts are filled with you.

'If You Asked Me...'

If you asked me what I liked about you the list would be innumerable:
You spark the light that contains my laughter
and lift my spirit with impeccable ease
You tease my senses beyond their inhibitions
and engage my mind in pursuit of happiness
You speak your mind as clearly as my own
echoing the inner voices of my internal sanctuary
You speak of dreams destined for reality
yet paint reality as if it were a dream
Your mind is like a continuous flow of light and sound and energy
bounding through the corridors of my battle-scarred heart
Each day you pave the way for the sunshine in my life
to glow brighter and brighter...and brighter...still brighter
You see through all the shadows and mists of my soul
left hurting...left waiting...waiting to be healed
And gently so gently you brushed away tears from its dampened cheek

If you asked me how I felt about you, words would cease to exist:
I want to spend my life with you,
Explore the possibilities of a life with you
Reach out for the reality of my life with you
I want to see your smile, hear your laugh
and know that I'm the cause
I want to feel your arms enfold me, holding me, anchoring me
secure in the knowledge that they are there for me
I want to see your mind at work; to help fit the pieces of the puzzles together
To explore the intricate networks and gateways and paradigms
that constitute your mind and know that this exploration would be welcomed
I want to build a life with you, grow old while shamelessly teasing you
Content to know that true love and happiness are not a myth but a reality that does exist
I want to love you completely, whole heartedly, unconditionally
knowing you felt the exact same way.
I want to wake up at earth's first dawn and fall asleep at life's first dusk forever always in your arms

If you asked me what I wanted at this very moment
my answer would be a smile, slow in coming but bright with intensity

If you asked me what I wanted at this very second
my answer would be the slight increase in the beating of my heart

If you asked me what I wanted...right here....right now
my answer...my only answer....would be

Only You"

'Shattered'

I see my future as if it were my past
Remembered fondly yet wished for expectantly
I've searched to find that special someone
Not knowing that I searched at all
Blind-sided...distracted...led astray...betrayed
Each time like the hopeful
Each time like the fallen
I've searched for happiness not realising I searched
Gave my heart to the slaughter
Never blindly...yet burnt
Bits and pieces of a battered soul struggle against the tide
of hopeless despair
While darkened shadows bathe my eyes with indistinct murmurs
flooding my mind
If only true love was a single breath away
I'd inhale it slowly...afraid to exhale."
