Luke
I went out to find
Some value in me,
So I sold what I had
For little a fee.

My eyes for a penny
I sold to some fools,
They're blind and useless,
Mistook for jewels.

My lips for a nickel
To the sweetest sin,
So they'll know the love
That has never been.

My ears for a dime
I sold to a lover.
To hear sweet nothings,
And silence uncover.

My hands for a quarter
I sold to a ghost,
So that she might feel
What I've wanted the most.

Finally my bones for a dollar
I sold to the earth,
But as for my soul-
There was found no worth.

You inhale galaxies
cause whenever I kiss you
It tastes like poem

When you realize that you have greatness in your DNA
And that nothing can successfully stand in your way
Obstacles & hurdles wouldn't bother you
because you know you'll always scale through
You become aware that nothing can limit you
because the greater One lives inside of you
You become conscious that you were born a winner
designed to be victorious and indomitable
And the only one capable of stopping you, is you.
My lord
Show me the real love
And if you don’t mind
Send it to me
with an angelic dove.

Medusa
when I saw the eyes
of my first child
I knew that when I  
die, someday
sometime, someplace

I knew then that I will die
staring right into his eyes

if I might be
so lucky

For every moment
