Spiritual

“You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated.
In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats,
so you can know who you are, what you can rise from,
how you can still come out of it, Dr. Maya Angelou.”

Angels Atmosphere

 

What planet did you come from?

Does it spin on an axis

And rotate around the sun?

Does it dwell somewhere within infinity

Where not even Venus had a chance to see?

Wherever it is, I know love has to be unbound

Somewhere the soul is Divine

And nature profound.

You are remarkable the way you smile

At life’s turbulent stream---

The way your positivity’ gives light

To the darkness of things.

I hope one day that I may dream

Imagining life a state of bliss without any fear…

 

May I absorb you to feel what should truly be?

May I come closer to smell the fruit

You bear from your tree?

Tell me, how much longer, will you remain

Part of this sphere?

When Pantheon calls upon you---

Can you somehow transcend my spirit there?

If not…

Then I’ll continue to be in awe of the gift

You came to give,

And pray one day I will be like you

The Angel…

From another atmosphere.

The Hem of Redemption


 
Jesus
May I touch the hem of your garment?
It is said
I am not worthy---
I am separate
For I was born in sin
A servant of iniquity

Say I
I am worthy
Desiring unity
Apiece of all / the everything
The complete circumference
Our Father’s most precious design
Jesus
May I touch the hem of your garment?

It is said
Obey and secure righteousness
Or go straight to HELL
Being such
Would create
I to become a
Despondent of free-will

Say I
Deviance is at hand
When I go against the flow of
Who I am
For life is a journey
Not to be opposed
With Ultimate Destiny

Say I
Heaven is here and now
Engaged in activity
Unconditionally granted
And legitimately awarded

Say I
Fight/Strive
To obtain only what is essential
Let go of
Temptation—Greed                                                                                        
Vanity—Lust
Gluttony- Sloth
Assuring success
 
Jesus
May I rest upon your shoulders?
May I lay beneath your spirit?
May I touch the hem of your garment?
For you
May Always
Touch mine

Seeds of Opportunity


I was blessed

When I was told

You will amount to nothing

Blessed

When I was told

You will not accomplish anything

Blessed

When I was told

You will live in misery

Blessed

When I was told

You will never-ever-succeed

Blessed

When I was told

You hold the key to damnation

Though these

Blessings

Did all come to pass

It is now do I understand

Life’s constant tendency

You see

These many-many

Blessings

Became my

Seeds of Opportunity

Yesterday

Eyes met yet blinded
Only you; moment past
Hearts touched and bruised
You left your marks on me

And I sunk my scars into you…

Scars reopened; wounded
Bled dry; healed,
reburied deadly sung;
A melody in lyrics.

Hands held yet shaken

Traced bodies; caressed
Promises held in hearts
Shielded; thru tears
That clung all alone.

Kisses sought; yet stolen
Our tongue ran over.
Erased; reminded,
By paths we forgot to take.

Paths broken and indiscernible,
There’s a hole in our life
Shaped just like lonely ghosts.

Once sacred; now barren

Thrown away as a journey,
As the embraced warmth
Landed pieces on the ground…

I slept; waited, yet realized-
Tearful and lost in the past.
Prayed on our tomorrows;
Cried out; hoped;

For yet another; precious
Yesterday.

- An Angel’s Sonnet -

You are beautiful like the snow that dazzles me

I fall swift into adulation; I surrender and ignore

The day to day life that usually seizes me

Sir, When you are not around to adore

To whisper sweet nothings; passions I implore

I bite my tongue while masturbation beckons…

When you smile for me; I day-dream of you

My soul abandons me every-time you summon

Miles apart and captured by your dominant power

I wretchedly pine-away my aching heart ado.
