Through The Day

THROUGH THE DAY

Have you ever had a day that was full of disappointments,
Have you ever had a day that just didn’t go your way.
This is when you should reach out for understanding.
And throw your hands up for mercy and guidance that will get you through the day.
Because every day is a journey, and some may get lost along the way.
So, raise your hands up to the heavens and say – God help me make it through the day.
I may be lost without your wisdom, but can you show me the way to a brighter day.
I know I shouldn’t be thinking about tomorrow, because I have so much to do today.
If I can just lean to your understanding, I know I can make it – through the day

In My Heart

IN MY HEART

You brought me home; you tuck me in. You said this is the beginning, this is where life begins.
You promised me we would never part. But here I am alone in the dark, tears on my pillow pain in my heart; just remember we would never part.
But now you’re gone and I don’t know why, Daddy said you were up in the sky.
I don’t know why you had to go, after you promised you would never let go.
Tears on my pillow, pain in my heart – knowing you told me we would never part.
Now you’re gone and I’m all alone – just remember one thing mama I’m going to be strong. Because in my heart, that’s where you belong.
So, the journey is not over, and we will never be apart. Because we’ll always be together – here in my heart.

Somebody

SOMEBODY

You may not see the forest because of the trees.
You may not feel the heat because of the breeze.
Sometimes you may think you’re all alone.

BUT SOMEBODY.
They may not know you, but they do know God.

SOMEBODY.
May have seen you in distress, they don’t know you, but they do know GOD

SOMEBODY.
They don’t know you, but that’s okay they called on God and prayed for you.

SOMEBODY.
They may have seen the tears in your eyes, they may have seen you stressing as you walked by.

SOMEBODY.
Somebody bless you and you don’t know why, they don’t know you but they do know God.

SOMEBODY.
Prayed for you today.

SOMEBODY.

Fire and Rain

Fire and Rain

I see fire, I see rain, I see the stars, I feel the pain.

Since you walked out of my life, I see darkness where there used to be light
.
What I don’t understand, how did you leave me standing in quicksand.

I see fire, I see life, in the middle of the night – when the moon is my only light.

I see fire, I see rain coming down like buckets of pain. I don’t know what I’m going to do, but I’m going to just keep on – moving on.

Because I see fire, I see the rain, and nothing in this world is going to stop this pain.

Friendship

FRIENDSHIP

Some people may never see a volcano erupt.
Some people may never see Niagara Falls.
When God looked down and saw me standing all alone. He said I’m going to send you something that you will never forget.
It’s so rare – it’s not a diamond; it’s not a black pearl. It’s something that you will never forget.
IT’S CALLED FRIENDSHIP. MORE POWERFUL THAN RICHES AND WORTH MORE THAN GOLD.
Instant eternal friendship.
From sunset to Dawn.
When poetry meets poet.
