Angel personified
I see your light
I feel your heart
I can sense the
Healing light
That flows from you
Flows from your soul
Bathing you in its
Life giving glow
I see your wings
Shining bright
Allowing you
To fly the highest heights
Soaring into the sky
Flying above everyone else
Sharing your light
And your love
And your healing energy
With everyone around you

The storm is coming
The river is rising
It is rising quicker
By the minute
Washing away
Everything in it's path
Its easy to get swept away
The river is rising quick
There is no where to run
No where to hide from the storm
That is coming your way

I think we could use
A little more grace
And mercy these days
We are justice driven
Wanting justice for this
And wanting justice for that
We persecute and judge
We don't stop to think
About the person
We are persecuting
We get so fixated
On punishing people
For their actions
Instead of looking
At the real person
We stop seeing
The humanity
Behind the person
Driven by our biases
And our preconceived ideas
About who that person is
We need to step away
From this type of thinking
And start to see the person
Seeing the person in the street
Who doesn't have a home
Looking into the eyes of a stranger
And understanding where they are coming from
Feeling that hurt and pain in your heart at knowing
That your fellow man is hurting and suffering instead
Of turning a blind eye to the injustices that are going on
Day by day because if you continue to show apathy and judge
Your fellow man you are forgetting god's greatest commandment
Love thy neighbor as you would love yourself and treat them accordingly

Its ok
To love
yourself
You don't
Have to
Hide that
Inner love
And light
We struggle
Against the love
We often feel
Like we don't
Deserve to be loved
Every body wants it
Every body deserves it
We all are loved in our own ways
When the love expands in your heart
You can truly begin to love yourself
Accepting yourself completely and wholly
Seeing the beauty for yourself and accepting
The ever growing love, beauty, light,  and peace
Love yourself
Don't ever forget
We all are free in
Our own way
Ahmad Cox Oct 2012
We all have that deep love inside
That deep love that tells us we are whole
That inner innocence and peace
That voice inside that says we are beautiful
We are all searching for that love and light
We just have to look inside our hearts
Search your mind and you will see
A piece of yourself that had always been free
Let it out and fall in love with yourself
Seeing that inner beauty inside of yourself
Sharing that healing and light with others
Spreading that love and peace and light
To all who are willing to see
Ahmad Cox Oct 2012
We will sit in love tonight my dear
Reveling in the feeling
Of our bodies intertwining
Combing as one as our souls
Make love tonight
Feeling you intertwined in me
As we writhe in ******* pleasure
Our bodies melting into each other
As we climb newer heights
Creating new ways to love
With each different touch
With each different kiss
With every ******
With every ounce of pleasure
We get a little closer
To the divine
This poem is inspired by the love poems of Hafiz. Its not about anyone in particular but I still wanted to see what people think. I usually don't write love poems so this is a step away from the norm.

We live
In a give me
Society
Give me this
Give me that
We don't
Stop to think
How our
Give me attitudes
Effect everyone
Else around us
We don't stop
To think
About where
Our things go
We don't stop
To think
About the people
That are being
Affected the most
By our mass
Producing of
Things we don't
Ultimately need
In the first place
We need to step
Away from
Our needless
Waste
We need to
Start to
Understand
We have more
Than we need
If we just use it
Correctly
Its not about
Trying to see
Just how much
You can get
But seeing
How much
You can give
We need to move
From a Give me this
Give me that
Mentality to a
Giving this
Giving that
Mentality
So that we can
Start to live
In peace
And harmony
Openly sharing
With each other
Giving freely
Sharing freely
Everything
We have
Leaving behind
Our Give me this
And Give me that
Mentality behind
