I take my beliefs seriously
I Ain't no religious fanatic.
But if you want to judge me
Judge me!
I don't mind
I'm no longer blind.
My faith in Christ is a relationship.
Grey mirror Sep 2019
Maybe it was only at the surface
Maybe that's why God asked you to leave me.
Maybe He knew me as the 'deep one'
And superficial only creates questions,
the Chaotic kind that cripples my mind.
Maybe someday I will smile again
Even if the questions remain unanswered.

Key
She tried to give
the door a knock,
She took a chance
to see if it would unlock.
Turns out,
she didn't​ have the key
to set him free.
Sometimes you have to set yourself free.

My Knight in shining armour
is coming soon
To sweep me off my feet,
To cleanse me of all my iniquities,
He claimed and honoured me,
with the title
"Daughter of the King"
His name,
"Above all names"
*King of Kings
And Lord of Lords.
Psalms 18:1
God is bedrock under my feet, the castle in which I live, my rescuing knight.

It's not enough,
To live without love.
Love was on pause,
I didn't want people
to see my flaws.
I needed my space
Not another face.
But it stopped.
I'm behind brick walls
Thicker and tall
Harder to break.
With a sign
"Please go away".

But you knocked anyways
And you said
*"Beloved, I"m here to stay"
1John 4:8
God is love

He is love that is willing to stay.

life -a fairy tale
Happily ever after
I, the author of every page.
Here comes the Queen. Hail!!
When the kingdom was in chaos
The reign of terror began,
Easy to blame
My subjects my slaves,
A narcissist prevailed.

Humbling myself ,an enormous leap
A pauper's shoes indeed.
Looking through the eyes of others
I had a peep,
The life of struggle, an eye opener.
Failure and reckless decision
Were no longer frightening.
Life- a surprise,* What's next,
A road to a storm or a silver lining?
Both an adventure, worth every dime.
*A journey in its own time.
I always plan ahead, if things doesn't go my way according to my time, well let's just say a monster unravels. But lately I tried listening and being patient, putting others need before mine. Somehow my life is a better journey, things happened in its own time.

Live for each moment,
There may never be a next time.
Don't let your sorrow drown you, but shake it off, live like there is no tomorrow

I sought true love
From a man,
Who didn't even know
Who love is!
For that reason
He is not at fault
For not giving me the
Love I once knew.
God is love, without knowing God how will we ever know what true love is.

Everyone wants to be accepted
But no one wants to be loved.
Accepting every attribute about a person
and not discerning right from wrong,
Cannot be loving.
"Oh I'm accepted, I must be loved"
But that kind of acceptance is out of fear of not being accepted in return.
To allow a person to self destruct either acutely or chronically
cannot be considered an act of love.
Love can be a constructive criticism
or a soft spoken word.
But if someone really loves,
they will not hinder the truth even if it hurts.
everyone wants to be accepted,
no one wants to be loved,
Because the world has redefined the true meaning of love.

The tags and labels
Drew you to a soul
Having luxury
was definitely your goal
You caught a glimpse of
The fresh scars,
The tags and labels
Were just masks.
Slowly you faded,
Your disregard was a flaw.
But when your priceless accessories
Were misplaced
In a second you wailed
You recalled each detail
The cost, the glitz
That gave you the glam.
But can they love you more
Than that inexpensive soul
You can't afford to hold?
Let us understand that a soul is worth more than designer clothes and costly accessories, For man is made in the image of our Creator, hence more valuable than any other.

So dogs are man's best friends
More loyal than any men
So when a man calls a woman
A *****!
*Does he refer to her as a best friend?
Isn't a ***** a dog?
I fail to respect men who call women ***** or vise versa. I wish words were use more wisely. I know to some it's a trend, but to others it's an offence. Useless you literally mean best friend, which I still do no recommend.

Marriage is beautiful
No matter what the age.
The younger the better,
It doesn't disrupt
with your dreams
If you find someone
you can have a future with,
Then propose!
There is nothing wrong
with marrying at  20s.
I've heard people say
"I'm too young,
I want to follow my dreams"
They leave the ones they love for ambition.
So you can't be ambitious at your 60s?
Im not saying you need to rush
It might just create a fuss.
All I'm saying is,
you can be a spouse,
At the same time
you can be who you want to be.
Some say they feel trap like a mouse.
they lose their freedom after being married.
Freedom sounds lonely,
Unless you're married
to a phoney!
Well don't you want to be
with the one and only?
Dedicated to all the young married couples.. so proud of y'all

Some don't get to wake up to a new day.
Some have never tasted a piece of cake.
So live because everyday is a Miracle.
Feeling blessed.

The universe
wasn't vindictive.
It was just
your mirror image,
Reflecting
your words
Back at you.
Stop whispering lies that you are not good enough, and that you deserve nothing but bad omens. Those words will keep hurting you, so stop hurting yourself. The mistakes you've made are in the past and does not define your future.

You there miss Tiny
have you heard your voice
Like a thunder so mighty.?

When you sing
You put a swing to our feet
A new melody to jive.
You're a reincarnated nightingale
With fresh songs to inhale.
The worn out souls come to live
With a new rhythm to their heart beat.
And a purpose to breathe.
You make pleasing sounds
Even to the most high King,
You praise His name
And announce His grace and fame.
Ohh miss tiny
*What a voice so mighty!!
Dedicated to my tiny friend with a wonderful singing voice.
She's short but definitely mighty with a beautiful soul.

The moment I decide to give up
A spark ignites in a mysterious cup.
A special tea garnished with
the aroma of friends,  family and even a foe,
it challenges me to taste all that life has to offer,
Be it sweet, sour or bitter.

The lakes and mountains
Are my escape
A hiatus from life's ache.
What's your escape?
Grey mirror Jul 2018
My words no longer compile sentences.
They act as antagonist,
preventing my every move.
I'm left with nothing but a blank page.
I'm having the worse kind of block lately. Hope someday I get back on track. :(

When I talk about my treasure chest
People think I keep silver and gold,
Diamonds and rubies
and all things groovy.
Instead you find broken pencils,
Glittery utensils,
an eraser shaped like an egg.
a tiny doll with wollen legs.
Letters from my mom n Friends.
Drawings from my little sister.
Even a love note from my so called "mister".
Things from the past, things from the present,
things to be remembered.
My memories great and old,
Some funny, some cold.
All hidden in this purple box.
The things I considered gold.
Small things given with love matter more than diamond and gold.

You called me old school
Just because I believe in purity

You called me old school
Just because I wasn't influence by social media to overcome my inferiority

You called me old school
Just because I don't swear or cuss

You called me old school
Just because in the midst of a chaos I remain Hush

You called me old school
Just because I believe in a deep sacrificial love.
Well I'm not old school. I just believe in principles and moralities, for without which, the world will crumble.
Grey mirror Oct 2017
The greatest achievement
A man can achieve
Is peace
In the midst
Of lonely.
I'm sure most of us when alone feel like no one cares or loves, feel unwanted and thoughts run wild. But sometimes we have to learn the skill of accepting lonely as beauty. When u finally find peace in lonely there is nothing you can't achieve. No more place for suicidal tendencies.
Grey mirror Jul 2017
You demanded my everything.
I gave myself in pieces.
Bit by bit, you collected me.
You fixed me up like a puzzle.
I was thrown away.
Now I'm picking up the pieces
with struggle.
Slowly hoping to be remodelled.
Gluing all creases with glitters,
Hoping to hide the scars layer by layer.
I put a smile,
To make it appear prettier.
But deep inside
I'm as damage as a broken mirror.
Still hurt
Grey mirror Aug 2017
Yes I'm a plus size
Because of this I was bias
I judged myself from the outside.
But when I look at the inside
my heart is a plus size too!
I have room to groom
To love to care
To open up to the broken hearted,
I have stories to share
And this is my story
To be use for God's glory.
You are all beautiful and created for a purpose.

Don't be blinded by your sight.
There is Power in the Unseen.
It can get you down on your knees,
Or lift you up on your feet.
Do you believe?
Grey mirror Sep 2017
We wake, we live,we laugh,we cry
We become blind to those who die inside.
Telling themselves lies
"You are the unworthy kind"
Fighting an unending battle
All alone and the fear rattles

Society can't save their live
Tagged​ them names,
they feel ashamed.
They breathe in the dark
For the sun acts like a spotlight
Revealing their unspoken misery.
Brainwashed, with a thought
of being more than dead,
they are misfits.

So you and I let's unite
Set aside our selfish hype.
Don't just pin the green ribbon to your shirt
But keep in mind, they are not different
There is no such thing as "their kind"
Depression is a phase most of us will encounter.
Like any other problem there is an answer.
Let's communicate-love,joy,hope,peace,
Reach out,
We need each other
Unite join the fight.
I was a victim of depression, saved by grace and by the love and care of Friends and family.
For those struggling with depression, know this- you are not alone.

For evil is deceiving
So resist without fleeting.
Do not accommodate it
Nor bargain with it,
Lest your soul be devoured.
We need to fight what is evil in us, before it controls us.

I am romantically fatal.
I give it all till I bleed to dead,

But regrets.

Scars are evidence

They say you should surround yourself
with positive people.
But everyone changes
A season to bloom,
A season of storm,
A season of harvest
A season to wither.
So are we suppose to leave
if they are not in their season of positivity?
Well I say patience is the reason
to love in all seasons.
So will you leave or stay when a friend goes through the season of change
Grey mirror Apr 2018
In your season of singleness
May God plant within you
Seeds of the Holy Spirit
And water you with the Living Word.
May you bloom,
Not only to meet "the one"
But to be the one
Whose sight is replaced
With God's perspective,
So that the pleasures of the flesh
And unfulfilled desires will **** out,
Filling your pith
With a deep rooted love.
To all the single peeps out there. Stay blessed :)

A little introspection is vital
Now and then
To correct what needs to be corrected
To accept what needs to be accepted.
we need to understand ourselves better... So study every detail about yourselves. Self help is much needed.
Grey mirror Jan 2018
We punish ourselves
Then we blame God.
We punish ourselves
With our own thoughts.
We try to draw meaning
From what was once lost.
We say "our sins
cannot be forgiven."
Hence we punish ourselves
But for what reason?

The guilt we carry
Can be forgiven.
Step into the light
Brust forth all
that is hidden.
For what is life
without a little strife?
Stop tormenting yourselves with unpleasant thoughts, pray for our God is great and wants to release us from such agony.
Grey mirror Jan 2019
How can it be a habit
For someone to be forgotten
Like a shadow who follows
And requires no attention.?
Unless, you were never in their hearts
To be reminisce about from the start.
You were just a moment's delight.
But never a keeper for long nights.
To some you may not be important. So stick to the few that knows your worth.

The wolf killed the sheep in me
My innocence left to bleed
Now a slave to knitting needles
A helpless yarn of wool.
The world and it's cruelty turn freedom into slavery

I cried out to you,
To make sure I'm not alone.
Silence, you listened.
God is silence...

Grey mirror Aug 2017
Everyday people pass by,
They no longer notice each other,
Not even a hello or a good bye.
No need to meet, just listen to the beep,
A text will tell how much they care.
Does that really sound fair?

They no longer awe at nature's wonders.
They affixed themselves to their device.
Every second, minute and hour,
They locked their eyes to their machine,
Chained like  slaves
Doing what it says,
Directing their daily routine.
Ohh what have this world become?
Loving our device.
Using human as toys.
*Worshipping it day and night
Ohh what a terrible sight!
Just pondering, but sad to say our smart phone has become our partner in life.

I'm desparate for that girl,
She's slumbering I know
For my heart had turn cold.
She's a girl who sees
Through crystal clear eyes,
She discerns the black from the white
Even what's in between
the intersecting line.
She serves because she's loved
She doesn't please others
to quench her thirst.
I'm trying to wake her up
I need that girl in me.
The beauty I seek
That radiates love
with ever heartbeat.
Inner beauty is the best kind of beautiful. But for most of us it's in a dormant state.
Grey mirror Mar 2018
I don't need someone
to complete me,
I just need someone

the love God has given me.
What about you, why do you need someone?

When I closed my eyes
There is a grow in sight
Of blossoming petals
Uniting in their own stems.
I wish we could live in a world with no divorce so that children could grow in the right path along side their parents.
A united family :)

It takes the one you love
To shatter your heart
Sticks and stones
To break your bones

A friend to tear you apart.
It also took two sticks to cross
And the stone to roll

To redeem your soul.
Thank you Jesus for dying on the cross and rising again. You saved our souls.

Somedays the sun rays make a clear path.

You are crying
Tears keep flowing
Everything else is growing
Your family your friends
You're not a burden
But you cry and cry
Your work is flying
Taking its toll
Even being applaud
You are blessed
With ever need ever desire.
But you're crying
You even asked yourself
"Why are you crying?"
you can't understand
You feel frustrated
You want to bang your head
Against the wall
Because you cry
Yet you don't know why?

A letter to you is just words in a piece of paper.
To me it brought us closer.
I could hear you whisper,
Those words so divine
You transformed my mind.
Although I knew they were shallow,
Yet I permitted my heart to follow
Those words that numbed my sorrows.

I was gullible, you were intimidating,
Each syllable was captivating
With that letter you won my attention,
But for me it was a ticket to redemption,
To save me from those emotions
That had consume my thoughts.
So I believed in those words.

A spark was lit, seen on my face
I was filled with a warm embrace.
Only to find, it was for sunny days.
As the storm set in,
And the thunders raged
Each words slowly faded.
The letter was drench in my tears
As I watched you walk away.
I love letters, they speak directly to my heart.
For this I am definitely old school.
Grey mirror Jul 2017
You delighted in the chase

It was indeed intriguing.

But when reality struck

And demanded your clock,

You fleet gracefully

Like a roadrunner.
The past hurts. If only I knew your motives, I would have never let you through

The earth has evolved they say,
MORAL VALUES
belong in historic caves
Along with all that
Expired and decayed.

Little children ending up
with older human!
It's a new trend
"Pedophilic love"
Everyone gets hurt.

Multiple ****** partners
Of any gender,
diseases come after,
Ohh but why bother!
We all fall ill
and die any day.

A child on the way,
Take a pill and
abort the unwanted,
So you may look pretty
With a thin body.

****** don't care
What you wear,
They are just men with
Ravenous appetite
To rip and tear.

Carry firearms
Everywhere,
Shoot em' all
Who are you to judge
Whether they are innocent
Or not.

So the earth has evolved you say
All I see is a world rotting away.
It saddens me to see how the world is dieing gradually daily.
