sometimes I wish
we could just close our eyes
without waiting for sleep
but, some ask,
where would we find the magic
of that moment
when falling asleep in
someone's arms?

dear, we are the magic.

You're beautiful!
Your skin is so beautiful!

Those bullies are wrong, they've lied to you
Your skin is silky and smooth
It is dark as night
Where stars shine bright
Your skin is what makes you...you!

Its deep cocoa hue
its glow

You ARE beautiful
You should know

People may bully you and tear you down
But they can never take away
What stands as truth

You are beautiful
Every part of you
The words are basic, but that have much meaning for me.
As a kid I was always complimented on my skin by adults, but I grew up being made fun of for my skin color all the time by my peers, and know young teens who are constantly bullied for it. We all have beauty...and learning to love it makes life so much better!

One
One.
One year later and l have learnt that a light  house will survive everything and will never hold a grudge against the waves.
So let me lead you home.
Let me direct your path. Allow me to be your safety despite the destruction you have become my love.
Let me be something.

angels beautiful angels
I never knew but you are real
angel without wings

heart is warm
kind thoughts all the time
no finger is lifted
this comes natural

I am favored
indeed Gods love I see
I see it in you
you are sent, not from heaven but earth
to shower me with light

when dark seems to cover
your light appears
when I have forgotten his ways
seeing you I know he lives

in me he exists
I smile
peace follows you
peace I have when you are here
indeed you are an angel
you come with light

you light my path is yet to be
smooth is all I see
you are sent
yes for me
you are an angel

I do not understand his ways
I cannot predict his moves
I do not think I even approve his ways
I do not think it is his ways

The phone call brings more questions
Call that got me looking back to my thinking
Can this be the universe shifting things for me

When the struggle continues
And there is no peace
The call rings and on the other end it is the voice

I do not want to hear this voice
I do not want to see this being
But here we are
The universe possibilities made it possible

You are favoured
why is that I do not know
Even my heart worships you
I want to deny it that privilege
but it dishonour me
My own heart beats for someone else
My heart beats but for me

I feel betrayed
My heart is smiling
My thoughts are at peace
My emotions are calm

How can this happen
The universe made possible but for me
Oh! Why is she the chosen one
My struggles means nothing
Nothing that I agree to sacrifices
To sacrifice what I thought will bring me happiness

So I am back in your books
Seeing me in your books makes you happy
Your happiness is a struggle to me
While you are happy I am dying inside

No one understands
No one sees this
No one hears my cry

I have made the sacrifice
Sacrifices for my own happiness
I do not know how long my heart will last
But as long as it last you are happy

I want to wake up
I want this to be a dream
The dream that will never creeps in sleep no more
I will never know
As I do not know now

I do not want to be too comfortable
what I feel inside is the calmness that comes with it
I refuse to let it absorbs me
this never commits
it scares me how my heart melts
I want to turn the tables
I want to run away but it caught me
my heart agrees when I do not agree
my heart fails me yet again

Day passes, night comes
peace creeps in the dreams
life in the dreams
Night yes night
Why you

Sorrow exits not
all in the mist …
yes mist of dreams
My sleep live life  
Beauty of life

Heart mind soul
All plays same beat
Life
All dreams

Heaven is
but yet day steals
And you gone
But live yes in distance

Only time then we find us
And awaken day and night

I sleep, dreams take me to you
Pure heart you are waiting to be reached
I feel, it feels good
I smile, yours warms me inside out

No words, no touches
Distance between me and her
But the desire is raving inside
Skin longs for unknown yet the heart knows

Awake the world in me is different
The day we meet
I will be awoken
Heaven from my feet up

Dear you...
time is near
hold on...... I am holding on
When souls meet then
heaven will open

happiness sleeping and awake
