If I told you
I knew where these words Came from You would either call me a liar Or God Or someone lying about God If I told you I knew where to find a poet Who took credit for her stanzas You would either call me a liar Or God Or someone lying about poets I f I told you Where to find the lines That played by different rules You would either call me a poet Or God Or someone lying about the difference

I wrote with you within my heart
Before I knew yours was beating I wept with you within my tears Before I knew you could feel them I dreamt with you between my wakes Before I knew I’d find you there I broke with you within my Fears Before I knew you saw the Pieces I walked with you between My steps Before I knew it was the path To you I prayed with you between My breathes Before I knew that you could Answer I loved with you within my Being Before I knew you’d love it so I was with you within the all Before I knew you’d be there too The garden with no gate
Waits for us to enter Two Travelers Headed towards the City of Light With no other place to stay Accused for our beliefs Uncertainty drenching our clothes Two Flames Speaking for the sake of life Knowing no other way Dancing in the moonlight While the fireflies blow us Kisses Two souls Forgetting the fear of judgment With Nothing more to say Accepting the purposelessness Along wth the duties of the doing Two children Skipping to the stories of the youthful For there was no where else to play The garden with no gate Waits for us to enter Two breaths Passing peacefully into the unknowable For it is there, where we Come To pray My concrete feet
Stumble under the life Looking for green Beyond the steel in sight Humbled by storefronts Selling me their goods I wonder to myself Where are my woods? Having walked into the city With its parallel streets Can I find an escape From the rush hour fleets? Continuing I step Over man made lies My heart taking over For my worn out eyes Feeling the warmth From a corner come near Easing the stumble Into a fall without fear For my heart had seen Where my soul could land In the arms of a church With strenght to stand Having found an oasis To water and pray No matter the village Nor time of day So remmber your choice And find your peace For He shines on metal And glistens to cease The worries in your mind Ready to come home To the City of Light Where all hearts shall roam Distance dividing
Miles apart Attempting to break down What is true in my heart Journeys new And transitions on Bringing more to face With each day's dawn Months now gone For 2 stories shared More lives to touch For those who dared Having leapt before Finding drft in the wind I leap once more With wings towards my Friend My partner, my only My onetil the end For it is thee I follow And from despair I ascend The troubles and doubts That emerge hence to fight The dreams that we have And the path we now light To walk as one Hand in hand Healing the sick The best we can So I say aloud For all to hear I walk this road Because I have no fear Overcoming hate With Faith our salve United in love For all to have I reveal myself To come to know you To free our minds To no longer see two I wake in tears Yearning for you Naked at my core Raw flesh born new Shedding what's not us What came from the past The ways holding us back From our Divine so vast Making space for growth Required by love When two become one To serve what's above I am a light for you
As you are a light for me You are the only one who Can show me how to heal How to become and remain Whole Just as I am the only one Who holds the way The light for you In ways I cannot imagine And in ways I do not wish to Be true You show me love You show me the paths and The ways I must walk However foreign To unite our light for the Wonder of the world With a patient heart And soft words I whisper upon your ways Listening for the silence That will tell me I'm home I'm loved I'm with you I may stumble I may clutter the moment With worries none should Bear But I will persist To exist And resist The ways of the wicked So I can hold you And our child Before God And say I am yours You are mine We are the worlds All are divine Thank you for showing me
All the things I never hoped To be Thank you for growing me Through all your words of Fear Thank you for knowing me As someone who could Resist Thank you for forgoing me So I could give the world More Thank you for indeed for showing me What it was He really wanted Me for One day
I started writing poems Because I didn't like Punctuation Or grammar Or words I could actually Pronounce The freedom you see To write What could not be said To explore What can only be found in Dreams Was more addictive Than a world filed With reasons to forget To hide To numb out to the truth That freedom Ecstasy Pleasure and pain Are just illusions Until you find yourself Entangled with god Desperately needing to know Why you ever needed a Period To end the exclamation I love you I think I'm lucky
You think I'm delusional I think you're angelic You think I'm illusional i think you're creative You think I'm suitable I think you're artistic You think I'm cuteable? i prayed for You You prayed for miracles I found you waiting You found me escapable I asked for help You saw me capable We leapt for life Faith unmistakeable We found the clouds This world unrelatable We live for peace His way undebatable We're here to remain Love Unbreakable The night shift
Was made to break you To tell you You were not made For the dark The hours alone Hardly sleeping You only wished That you were actually Dreaming Panicked And manic it made you Wondering if you had Ever done less Or desperately wanted More? The night shift Was made to break you To tell you You couldn't have been Made in the dark It was made to release you To free you And ultimately Defeat you For precisely how else Could He Have reached you In your fancy white coat And your posse Of me too's Forgetting about faith And the miracle Within you The armor so tight That nothing Could bleed through Until one day The night Came to meet you And break through the Cracks That only She Could have seen through To awaken the heart That only wanted To see you Forget the word hate And start living As if you Had always known love Was how They would greet you And give you the truth That from all dark You will wake too |
