Butterfly heart
Ahmad Cox Nov 2012
Butterfly heart
With Gossamer wings
Floating in the
Gossamer sky
I see your wings
Extending from
Your heart
Blowing butterfly kisses
To wayward fairies
Who have lost their way
Giving life and flight
To the wings of the night
To that angelic spirit
That consumes your soul
As you extend your wings
And you extend your heart
Fly with me with your
Gossamer wings
As we sail across
The sky together
Sailing through the mist
Sailing through the fog
Carrying all of those
Who are lost in flight
Searching for their wings
But can't quite make it
Off the ground
Searching for that
Angelic light
To uplift and to
Help them soar
Carrying along
On the breeze of life
Butterflies marching together
Marching toward the dawn
As we migrate and move
To a new horizon
An unknown destiny
As we fly together
Sailing along on the breeze
Lets fly together
Lets let our wings
Take flight
Lets fly above
The world
And look down
Looking down
At all of the troubles
Looking down
At all of the strife
Putting it behind
And below us
As we sail together
Into the night sky
Butterfly hearts connected
As we dance together
In the night

Please
Ahmad Cox Nov 2012
I pray for peace
Please allow your love
To rain down on this earth
We live in a time
When people are becoming
More separated
Where people are hurting each other
While people are hurting this planet
People are lost and disjointed
Without any type of connection
To what reality truly means
Living in an illusion
Not understanding
Their real worth
And the ultimate reality
We are all connected
I pray that people
Will begin to see
And stop the wars
And the judgment
And the crimes
And the pain
And start understanding
No life is ever forfeit
For greed or gain
And no life
Is any less sacred
Or has any less purpose
Than any other life
We must come to accept this
Please I am asking you
Wake up
Whoever is out there
Its not too late
Even as crazy
As the world is
Its never too late to wake up
Waking up to yourself
Waking up and sensing
The spirit that is inside
But more importantly
Being able to feel and to see
The spirit inside of everything else
Responding out of love and kindness
Instead of hate and anger
Learning to love in whole
And complete ways
And learning to show mercy
And kindness to the people
That need it the most
I pray and plead
Please wake up
Its not too late
We can still turn
Things around
There is still hope
The choice
Is with all of us

Pleasing
Ahmad Cox Nov 2012
Pleasing the world
Can seem easy sometimes
It can feel easy sometimes
To give in to world
Giving in to the pleasure
And the whims of every one else
Not being yourself and fighting the norm
It can be easier to try and fit in
Try to be normal in this crazy world
But ultimately what is normal
Isn't whats best
You have to be willing
To be yourself
Bucking the mold
Learning to please yourself
And your own individuality
Rather than trying to please
The world and everyone else

After All
Ahmad Cox Nov 2012
After everything
You have been through
After all the struggles
After all the strife
After all the pain
You can look back
With absolute clarity
My life has purpose
I know who I am
After all the things
I have been through
I know I am exactly
Where I need to be
With this new focus
I can move forward
With new resolve
I know who I am
I am at peace with life
Peace with the storms
Peace with the past
Knowing it has led me
To exactly where I am now

Mirror
Ahmad Cox Nov 2012
We are a mirror
We are all mirrors
In our own ways
Reflecting gods image
And reflecting gods light
Even as crazy as the world
Has become we all share
That divine light and love
That is inside
Even if people doubt it
Or push it away or ignore it
That divine nature is waiting
Like a spring or well
It springs from a divine source
Spreading through the world
And reflecting through us
And into others
If we start to understand
This simple truth
All other strife would cease
We would stop killing
Or hating or separating
Each other because we would
Understand we are only one reflection
We all share the same spirit
And the same.source

I Give Myself
Ahmad Cox Nov 2012
I give my heart to you
I know you are there
Waiting in the dark
Even as crazy as the world is
I feel your spirit inside me
Guiding and influencing me
No matter what people might say
Or what people might think
I know your spirit is real
I know you are in my heart
Shining out and healing me along the way
Giving me the light and the love
To show to a world that is in the dark
Being a beacon of light and hope
To the people of the world
And the people around me
I thank you for allowing me to be
Your vessle for love and light
Allowing me to offer love
Through me from you
Even through everything
I have been through
I know you are real
And guiding my steps
That's why I will continue
To give myself to you
Feeling your heart
And your love shaping in me
A little more day by day

Rivers
Ahmad Cox Nov 2012
We have many rivers to cross
Many burdens to bear in this life
Many trials to overcome
We have times in our lives
When it feels like the river
Can get very deep
When it feels we are
Swimming upstream
Just when you think
You have crossed over
There is another river
Waiting for you to wade through
The water can get over our heads
Can drown us until we cant breathe
We have to be willing to cross the rivers
To wade in the waters for a little while longer
Washing up whatever life floats our way
We have to be willing to get a little wet in life
To truly get ourselves clean
Washing away the old you
With a brand new one
As you float along the rivers of life

Excited
Ahmad Cox Nov 2012
The world has gone crazy
There is turmoil every where
Divisions all around
It seems like people
Are going backwards
Falling darker into the night
Falling deeper into the void
Living with hate in their hearts
Living at the brink of nothing
Living with depression
Living with despair
Without an ounce of grace
Moving further away from the light
Every thing goes these days
Without any sense of control
Or consequences
People have lost their minds
And it seems to get worst every day
But even through all the craziness
Even through all of the chaos
Even through all of the darkness
There is a part of me that is excited
Excited to see what is to come
We live on the brink
There is a chasm before us
We are just about to jump
And we are about to cross
Even as crazy as life might seem
There is still hope, love, grace, and mercy
And there are still miracles hiding in the dark
We just have to know where to look
To see the goodness and the light
That is waiting for us to accept it
To acknowledge that its there
Once you do life takes on a different tone
It takes on a whole new beauty and purpose
You start to see just how wonderful and crazy times
We are living in and you can become excited to
Living with light and grace and hope
And learning how to spread that sense of excitement
To everyone you meet

The cave
Ahmad Cox Nov 2012
There is a cave down below
That is waiting to be discovered
There is a cave filled with peril
But there are hidden treasures inside
There is a cavern
A ravine that has a special source
That springs up once we have
Discovered it
It is the spririt that
Lies in all of our souls
The spirit that flows
If we know where to find it
Giving forth its riches
To all who are willing to seek

Meaning
Ahmad Cox Nov 2012
Everything in life has meaning
Even your life matters
Everything in the universe
Has a great design and purpose
From the smaller atom
To the biggest star
Everything matters
We have to see the bigger picture
To truly find meaning
Not only for our own lives
But for everything else inbetween

Surrender
Ahmad Cox Nov 2012
We need to surrender
Surrender to life
Surrender to our
Circumstances
Surrender completely
Living in the moment
Surrender to the love
Surrender to joy
Find it in your soul
Surrender today
We all need to release
We need to let go
Surrender the pain
surrender the doubts
Surrender those moments
That take you away from peace
Surrender to grace
Give in to the mercy
Surrender it all
At the end of the day
There is peace in your soul
Never let it go
As much as the world
And the day
And life
Can make you
Surrender to the pain
Give in to the peace
That inner calm

Are You Ready For Love?
Ahmad Cox Nov 2012
Are you ready for love
Could you really accept it
If it came to you today
Could you accept yourself
Could you love completely
Loving with your whole soul
If love were to come to you
Could you look deep inside
And find the love that is waiting there
Tucked inside your soul
Just waiting to come out
Could you feel and receive love
Could you give it back completely
Without hesitation or regret
if the answer is yes
Don't be afraid to give love
We all need to feel loved
If you are truly ready to receive
Open up your heart and let love in
Love without fear
Allow the love
To settle in your heart
Until love becomes all you know

Angelic Light
Ahmad Cox Oct 2012
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

River Rise
Ahmad Cox Oct 2012
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

Grace and Mercy
Ahmad Cox Oct 2012
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

Love Yourself
Ahmad Cox Oct 2012
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
Oct 2012 · 977
Deep Love
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

Sitting in Love
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.

Running Away
Ahmad Cox Oct 2012
Running Away
Can seem easy
Running Away
Can seem like
The best option
It can feel like
Running away
Is the only sane option
The only thing
That seems right
There are times
When we must face
Fight, and battle
Your inner demons
Fight not flight
Fighting against
Injustices
That happen
Everyday
Fight for peace
Fight for love
Fight for life
We have to be
Willing to fight
The only thing
We should never fight
Is ourselves
It can be easy
To fight ourselves
While running
From the world
It should be the opposite
We should be
Embracing ourselves
And fighting
For the people
And a world
That needs
Fighting for
Everyday
Ahmad Cox Oct 2012
We must be willing
To truly forgive ourselves
To set our souls free

We must be willing
To accept our death in life
If we want to live

We must be willing
To honor all life on earth
To truly feel love

A little bit of this
Ahmad Cox Oct 2012
A little bit of this
A little bit of that
A little bit of this
And this is where's its at
Now ladies and gentlemen
Listen to me
I show you the feeling
The feeling in the street
So clap your hands
And wave real high
Just wave those hands
Up to the sky
If you feel the rhythm
And you feel the beat
Just stomp your feet
Just stomp em on the street
Stomp for the people
That can't find their way
Some for the people
Who don't have a say
Stomp for humanity
Stomp for the love
Pray for some heaven
Lots all get a hug
A little bit of love
Can go a long way
A little bit of hate
Can get in your soul
Can cause you to act
Without really thinking
But you must remember
We are all God's children
So feel the flow
Feel the groove
Just let it happen
Just feel it in your shoes
So now its time
To end this groove
I will leave you with
A little love too
So stomp your hands
Stomp your feet
Feel the love
Down in your seat
DJ Mad is out of here
So I want people to say
A little bit of this
A little bit of that
A little bit of this
Cause this is where its at
This is me in a playful mood.

Running with Scissors
Ahmad Cox Oct 2012
I think sometimes
We have to learn
The hard way
Running with scissors
Simply because
You know
You aren't
Supposed to
Its easy to get caught
Its easy to do the things
We know we aren't supposed to
Sometimes the thrill
Of crossing the line
Knowing that
We are getting away
When we think
We have everyone fooled
Ultimately
All it takes
Is that one time
Too many
Before life
Has a way
Of smacking you
Its always fun and games
Until someone
Pokes an eye out

Soul
Ahmad Cox Sep 2012
Everybody has soul
Our souls thirst
For gods healing spirit
Our souls know
Our souls hunger
Even thirst
To be whole
We spend so much time
Trying to fill that thirst
With everything but
Gods cleansing spirit
Ultimately the more
We fill up on empty things
The more thirsty
Our souls become
We need to let go
Of the fillers of the world
And focus on the
Nourishing power
Of the spirit

Too lovely
Too beautiful
Too bright

Accepting love

Holiness
Ahmad Cox Sep 2012
Holiness is what
I long for
Holiness
Is what my heart
Cries out for
In the night
My heart
My soul
Wants to be
Whole
Completely
Connected
But the world
Has a way
Of dragging
Me back
Dragging me down
Down to the world
To the muck
And the mire
But even among
The troubles
And the trials
There is still beauty
Even in the storms
Life is holy
Every life
Carries that holy flame
That fire that flows
Every thing is holy
Every thing comes
From God
Every thing
That makes us
Every thing
Thats inside of us
Comes from God
All life is holy
In some way
Every thing breathes
The secret of God
In every second
In every action
God is there
Sharing his love
And holiness
To every one
And every thing
That recognizes him
And accepts the healing
Love
Mercy

In the dark
Who are searching
Searching to find
Themselves
In a world
That seems
So cold
Lonely
Barren
Devoid
Of life
Love
Hope
Living
In darkness
We must speak
Break the silence
For we can't stay

We have to speak
We can't just stay still
Any longer

Needs people
Who are willing
To speak

Attrition
Ahmad Cox Sep 2012
We have to win by attrition
The enemy is strong
But love is stronger
Even as we are bogged
In self doubt
We are stronger
Than we think
Even when it seems
The darkness is
Overwhelming
Even the most dim of light
Can shine through
The haze and shine
Through the night
Even as strong
As the enemy is
Even the most
Smallest light
Can drive away
The dark
Can drive away
The pain
Our light is a beacon
A beacon in the dark
For all to see
Chasing away the darkness
Chasing away the night
A beacon to all
Combining our hearts
Until the light is so
Overwhelming
That all can't help
But stop and look
And take notice

War of the heart
Ahmad Cox Sep 2012
There is a war of the heart
There is a war of the mind
Be ready my friends
The war is already here
You have to be strong
To make it in this world
We are constantly assaulted
Bombarded by the war
That goes on day by day
We must shield our hearts
So that we can still love
We must shield our minds
So they don't get taken over
By negative thoughts
And negative deeds
Acting out hatred toward others
Falling into the rat race
Getting stuck in the grind
We must protect ourselves
At all cost
If we don't
We will get lost
Lost in a world
That teaches us we are separate
We are not whole
We have to play the game
To keep ourselves alive
That tells us we have
to give up ourselves
To ultimately win

The age
Ahmad Cox Sep 2012
We live in the age of technology
Where everything is a quick fix
We get everything instantly
Whether we want it or not
We are bombarded by information
On a daily basis
We often can become overwhelmed
By the senses
And the information
That is being thrown at us
It can be hard
To dissociate from reality
Living in a digital fantasy
Moving farther and farther away
From what is real
We need to be willing
To step away from our technology
Start focusing on what is real
Right in front of our faces
Take time to really see
The actual beauty
That comes from
Connecting with the earth
In real and whole ways
Connecting with people
In real and whole ways
Once you start to see
Reality for what it is
You will start to see
Just how hollow
Those old fantasies
Used to be

Antidote

It can feel like
The world is doomed
But the cure
The antidote
Is a lot easier found
Its right in front of our eyes
We just have to be willing to see it
The antidote is love
Once you understand that
Everything else
Starts to fall into place

Seeing the forrest
Ahmad Cox Sep 2012
Sometimes we can
Miss the forrest
Trying to look
At what is right
In front of us
Instead of focusing
On what is around us
Not understanding
The true beauty
Mystery
And healing
That living
Can bring
We have to be able
To see the bigger picture
Understanding
We are more connected
Than what we think
Living in peace
With each other
And everything
Around us

We think we have control
Ahmad Cox Sep 2012
Even when we think
We have control
Life has a way
Of showing us
Just how much our plans
Our are sense of control
Really matters
In this world
We must learn
To give up control
Understand
That things happen
As they happen
Things don't always
Go as planned
We can't keep trying
To control everything
Just let life flow
Understand the flow of life
Life will become
A lot easier

The rain
Ahmad Cox Sep 2012
The rain can come
Be ready
Sometimes the rain
Can come in bursts
Drowning everything
Washing away
Everything
In it's path
But its when that rain comes
That life can really grow
Washing away everything
To let life prosper
In its wake
A mist
A rain
Can be
A good thing
We need the rain sometimes
To help make things
New again

Trees
Ahmad Cox Sep 2012
Trees are amazing
Living sentinels
They protect us
Whispering
Hidden knowledge
To those who
Are willing to listen
Giving us shade
Air to breathe
Offering life
Wherever they plant
Holding each other up
Supporting each other
And everything around them
We should all learn
To take more after trees
And revere them
For the amazing
Life giving
Sentinels of the forrest
Instead of cutting them down

The way
Ahmad Cox Sep 2012
The way is kindness
The way is truth
The way is honesty
They way is peace
The way is love
The way is light
The way is mercy
The way is grace
Loving people
No matter what
Learning to honor
The life
In every one
And everything else

Grasping at Straws
Ahmad Cox Sep 2012
I feel like
I am grasping
At straws
Not really knowing
Which way I should
Truly go
We all grasp at straws
Life can get confusing
The answer can be right
In front of our face
Yet it still eludes us
Grasping at straws
Not knowing
What is truly going on
Or understanding
Where we should go

Peace be still
Ahmad Cox Sep 2012
Allow that calm
That only you can bring
Take away the hurt
Bring me to that peace
That inner well of strength
That only you can bring
Peace be still
Turn away
The troubles of the day
Just be still
I feel
I know
You are there
Calming me
Calming my spirit
Filling me
Peace be still
Calm my heart
Calm my mind
So I can move forward
Ready to fight
Another day
