There is THE PRICE that must be paid to BREATHE. I FORGET the obvious BS UPFRONT as I STRUGGLE to willfully CHANGE. I come from a CULTURAL HISTORY TREE where the 3 MEALS A DAY consist of people treating me FAKE; being bogus in their TESTIMONY, keeping me from my emotional FREEDOM. I HAVE FORGONE so much while MELTING into sanity; trying to reach PEACE EVER AFTER. As a BLACK GIRL, if you look INTO MY EYES, you will understand when I shout WHAT ABOUT ME; in my flagrant CIRCUMSTANCES. AAAAhhhh, DAYS DON'T LOOK like the BOLD STATEMENTS I need to vent; feeling like I'm DROWNING IN WATER, but DOUBLING UP instead; SAY WHAT!

This site is lovely. Everyone's poem is breathtaking. I would love for some of you to join my site and spread some of this beautiful poetry. It's a site for authors and writers just like you. I just started it and it's growing, but it's definitely missing some your work.

A MESSAGE OF LOVE

Today is the day that I will send
a message of love to you on the breeze,
to confirm the alliance of friendship that you and I share
it will soar through the clouds
dash humbly through the trees
and will gracefully come to you
in the twilight of the night
with spread wings, purple ribbons
and hand picked flowers from the land.
As a token of your beauty and the fullness of living
to let other maidens know your devotion is grand,
you and I share a fondness that is pure love
that will live beyond the doors of time,
it will be delivered by my favorite dove
something for your heart from mines.
There on young rose petals I have said
in seven bold letters with a colorful hue
that you can wear real nicely around your head
to let the world know what I feel is true.
I love you and only you my loveliness
no other adore could be better then this
that joins my spirit on an inspiring bliss
where our union has been sealed with God’s lilac kiss.

One God

Put nothing before God
No church, Bible or cross can save you
Follow no man or woman to the Lord, follow God
Only God the almighty can give you salvation
Go to church and assemble the righteous
Tell others of the Lord and help them get saved
Read the Bible and let God's words open your soul
Remember Jesus died on the cross for us
Pray everyday and give God his glory
Even just for waking you up this morning
Thank you Jesus
