I mean I am weak and nothing with out Him, that am so desperate that I follow a man who should be dead, I am crazy enough to praise a God whom I can not see, I shout "I need love" to believe He rescued me. I say am Christian because deep inside I need a Father, a caregiver, a Creator. Nothing about me being a Christian makes me better than anyone but it makes me weaker than most to seek and dwell where it does not make sense.

House Break
He lay dead
IN HIS OWN BLOOD
wearing his own shoes
WHERE HE HAD BEEN
sipping his own coffee
IN HIS OWN HOUSE,
resting on the cupboard
WHERE HE HID,
his gun
HE WAS SHOOT DEAD.

Road Princess
She shamefully, pitifully
Plods along the side-walk.
She carries all the right qualities
The society oppresses.
She wears her crown all year long
Knitted to her hair
She wears the crown ALL DAY LONG
The crown every girl forgets about.
She has her own public bunch, an alley and a box too to go.
Nothing to forget, misplace or lose in her black vague plastic hand bag.
Lucky girl
What more can a Road Princess want?
She’s consistently contemplating constitution steps to
her praise and glory that is everlasting
yesterday, today and faithfully tomorrow.
Her people bring her honor by facing away,
making fists right by the noses while…
vigilantly keeping an eye on the changing light.
She is the skinniest of them all,
her sister prejudicious, her brother is violent,
her cousin is shameful, her mother is affordable
and her dad is dead.
She is the Road Princess.

Emotion Run Dry
I
can feel them now
feel
them through my veins.
Here
they come with
the little power they have left.
They
give it their all.
They
will blind, break, baptize me.
They
come with no expectation
but
minor thoughts behind them.
And they
will find me in my palace to
chase my mind till insanity.
I
cannot stop the sound of their feet
from walking into my
ears.
I
can ignore their presences
for
they are invisible, blind to my eyes.
Blind
to my eyes they are
and
become naked before yours.
They
reveal the truth about my heart
and
my integrity cries the tears of
a mad woman with the voice of a baby monster.
My
tears run from my heart
down
my cheeks
and
drop dry like my emotions.
Yes my tear got
me.

Change to you
I choose what I want to be a part of me.
I don’t want to tell my life story
Because what happened does not
Excuse for what I do now.
And tomorrow I will tell my life story
Because I believe without it
I would not know what I know now.
I have a choice of what makes me.
I don’t need a favorite color
Because it will be requested for.
Some things I cannot like or dislike fore I have not come across,
Whatever it might be.
Don’t be scared to change to your mind.
Finding yourself is fun
But finding yourself in Christ
Is like finding your origin.

This Harden Heart
Let not the pain
Hurt, disappointment, judgement,
Things of the old.
Not the things that choke me
Or breath taking stop me.
Let not the road of life
Harden my heart.
Let not the marks of suffering
Harden my heart.
Let not the tribulation,
Dry tears,
Vulnerability
Harden my heart oh Lord.
Let not storm
Chariots
Brokeness and words
Harden my heart.
Let me not harden my heart.
Let not this lips harden my heart.
Let not my heart be harden.
Let not my pride
Greed
Let not my sin harden the nail.
Let not me Harden this Heart
Oh Lord.
Hurt, disappointment, judgement,
Things of the old.
Not the things that choke me
Or breath taking stop me.
Let not the road of life
Harden my heart.
Let not the marks of suffering
Harden my heart.
Let not the tribulation,
Dry tears,
Vulnerability
Harden my heart oh Lord.
Let not storm
Chariots
Brokeness and words
Harden my heart.
Let me not harden my heart.
Let not this lips harden my heart.
Let not my heart be harden.
Let not my pride
Greed
Let not my sin harden the nail.
Let not me Harden this Heart
Oh Lord.
