Just Her Truth
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
She speaks the truth?
From her perspective.

And to some, it concerns the old days.
But listen to her perspective for in their lies some truth.

Many women, could clean cook, and more.
No microwaving and call it a day.

Her food woke the house up from sleep.
So just maybe those days are long gone.
But many older ladies can testify they have or had a happy home.

But in all this day and to some those good old days.
Only the attitude has changed.
Many modern ladies forget that some women worked back then and still ruled the house.

So, maybe they weren't executives.
Maybe,m they worked in lesser roles of authority.
But pay attention to those that celebrate many years of love.

And, they can admit?
Not everything was perfect.
But what marriage is?
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
I can remember that everything I wanted to do the moment I came to know you.
Everything, everything I swore to do for us and more for you.

You must know(be aware)
That my dreams of yesterday still centered upon you.

You are that shield that still protects me.
Still support and motivates me to succeed.
Just when I want to give it all up?

I just think of you.
And all my ideas come rushing to the top of my mind.

So you must know
That all my dreams of yesterday are centered on you.

You're just not about to let me fail.
You just keep on pulling me through.

Pushing my dreams.
Just motivating me to succeed, with all my dreams
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Don't rush God?
Since He has been so patient with our habits.
Our mistakes, our wickedness.
All started in the book of Genesis.

Don't rush God?
But accept that he loves us through the stupidity we create.
Even He regretted his mistakes in making us.
But let us strives to be a better person.

Lamentations three and twenty-five lay it out so plainly.
Read it and see, just why the love of God is a wonderful thing?
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Life lesson is about knowledge and understanding.
And our minds operate differently to easy than to common sense.
If you asked anyone?
As a child, if offered a hundred pennies or one whole dollar?
Most likely the dollar wins out.

Then when guided by a parent to the truth?
You realize which is the better one to choose.
And that would be those hundred pennies offered to you.

Because if you lose the dollar?
You are completely broke.
But if you lose one penny?
Most likely that would be quicker to get.

Then it does depends on us operating around common sense?
So which one would you choose?
Well, if you truly had to.

Trade You In
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Others like a new model.
A new lover with up-to-date skills.
Trade-off the old model in a snap of the fingers.

Oh, not I.
I know your ways.
I know your moods.
Yes, even your emotional skills move.
And even your style of loving tricks.

So trade you in.
I must say never.
Had not the patience to adjust to a newer model.
Aug 2021 · 328
Submit and Commit
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
I will submit unto you.
All because I truly love and adore you.

I will commit unto you.
All because I truly enjoy you.

Who?
Wouldn't do one of the two?

By submitting I am not your servant.
By committing I am saying I am here for you.

A Confused Poem
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
I understand me.
Me understand I but still get deceived.

We understand us.
Us understand you.
Still we ALL are confused.

Well hell, this is just a poem.
Which written to confuse those like us
Aug 2021 · 103
Be Truthful
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
We lie
We debate
We disagree
But being truthful hold key to many things..
We see
We read
We disagree
Some of these allegations aren't being truthful

A man with money is like a magnet.
A man without it barely gets any attention.
Just be truthful.

Then days turn to months.
Then years into decades and than trouble comes along the way.
Be truthful, some ladies know the trades of the player's game.

Wife or no wife.
Certain ladies just don't care.
This is nothing new.
Just be truthful with the truth.

Another Mistake
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
I yearn
I burn
I ache
Which was my mistake

I dream
I fantasize
Even hypnotized
Again, another mistake

Because it's still a dream and end to nothing to materialize
Aug 2021 · 123
Give, Receive, Enjoy
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Give it.
Receive it.
Enjoy it.
And hare of it.

It is called love.
Aug 2021 · 101
Many Regrets
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Many regrets, we have them?
Least, we should.
Not all things we have done have been totally good.

Many regrets, lie deep within us.
We just refuse to address them concerning a hurt one.
Aug 2021 · 108
The Kindness You Show
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Remember this, the kindness you show?
Will come back your way?
Kindness can make a mean or evil person change their way.

And it's because of the kindness you show.
Kindness, like love, has the power of growth.

Think, of that enemy, you couldn't stand?
Think of your family and friends shocked they know your best friend.

Kindness, marinates, within us.
That just reaching out with it eventually keeps affecting us.

It's easy to be mean.
But at the end of the day, it didn't change a thing but the smile upon a person's face.

We have been told to **** them with kindness and you defeat their purpose.
Aug 2021 · 132
Help Someone
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Help, someone in need.
Someone hurting, someone needing assistance.
Don't put on pretense before the people?
Pretense wouldn't even fool, Jesus?

You never know, when you might be that same one?
Then upset, when they won't help someone?

It's true.
You can't trust everyone.
Aug 2021 · 127
Remember Days of Old
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Transform, from the world, we are told.
Then, you look around and wonder, if it is just words being spoken.
Because churches are becoming adapted to things of the world.

Remember, days of old?
When your minister request you turn to a certain chapter of the bible?
And you flip through the book to that section.

Now, folks only bringing their cell phones.
Which are simply a bigger distraction from the preached message.

We, now seeing ministers preaching from their tablets.

Remember, days of old?
When your minister gave his/her sermons, they have contributed notes?

Then, as I said, these was days of old and the minister was truly trying to touch souls.
Aug 2021 · 119
Whew!
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Whew!
Many of us, are witnesses?
Without breath, we can't live.

But, as, we sit and observe, many folks are lost without their phone.
It consumes them, it controls them.
That, without service they are depressed.

Whew!
And this they should never be.

Watch, them at work giving less than without it, they contributing more.
Watch, those just killing time that could be productive.

And, we are more concerned about those, without one.
They personally have seen the trouble phones have done.

Whew!
To those that never gonna purchase one.
You're not missing much.
Aug 2021 · 82
A Different Perspective.
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Everything is not racist?
We simply have a different perspective.
Each side has a point.
We can't say with all honesty they don't.

Not, all races have been treated fairly on the playing field.

And when they succeed against all odds?
Then one side thinks it is because of various rules in place
Afraid to admit, you were far ahead of the field of players.

And now you must honestly complete.
But they do have a perspective to speak.
Even if a few think their opinions are weak.
Aug 2021 · 170
Above and Beyond
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
To be anything, you must make yourself someone.
Someone noticeable and recognition and success will come.

To be seen as important.
You must stand out.
It's not all about clout.
Because many come back to failure seeking attention.

To be a star, you must be willing to share.
A selfish person never gets anywhere.
It might seem like it.

So to be anything, you must stand out.
Then compliments will elevate you higher.
Think of the Good Samaritan story and you see his worth.

He went above and beyond.
Some of us have a similar heart.
But similar chose by our own will to stay in the shadows.
Aug 2021 · 83
Money, Women and Truth
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
What broke guys get the girl?
It's those with money.
Of the two genders, who love to question what you bringing to the table?

Speaking on, how self-sufficient they are?
Love to them is hidden before the shining star.
Where?
They have seen exactly what you have?
And then they want to get together.

Although some will cry loudly that's not them.
Men are the first to be aware of no romance without finance.
When it comes to a woman?

Only, if men start using the same approach?
Then, we are blinded by beauty from a sweet cutie.
Then, on the other hand, he could be like the ugly duckling.

Even, without a job.
A man still will want her.
Aug 2021 · 103
Never Will
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
It won't fade like smoke vanishing in the air.
Or like clouds covering for the sun.
Never will it.
Never will I ever hide my love for you.

Who cares?
If others offer their opinion of us?
They are the first requesting us to defend them.

Never will I stop giving.
Never will I stop receiving all you have to offer.
Yes, you're that phenomenal woman.
Aug 2021 · 138
Whispers and Rumors
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Whispers and rumors create so much trouble.
Some folks just live for drama.
Those he said, she said similar to those anonymous sources.

Love to give information to others.
So, we seek stupidity on social media.
Where threats are issued to hurt others?

Life, folks just too important.
Aug 2021 · 176
S.I.N
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Sin, we hear about in church.
Especially concerning the two in the beginning.
And we all must admit some form of it within us.

But, we could break it down in simple for, that sin means--someone in need of help.
It could've been a preacher?
Carrying a heavy burden guiding us but one failure and in stantly we become judgmental.

It could a teacher with struggles many of not aware of in life.

Well, it could be any of us that sin addresses.
Especially, if address Someone In Need?

Eyes, Ears, and Mouth
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Some things aren't meant for the eyes to see.
But curiosity makes you look.
Least, sneak a peek.
You know it.


Somethings, the ears just shouldn't hear.
But for some reason, those speaking aren't heard talking.
And you were attracted to the subject.
You know it.

Some things, the mouth just shouldn't say.
But out of anger, you said it anyway.
And your version of the truth leaves many feeling blue.
You know it.

If you're looking for blame?
Just look within the mirror because it's within you to do these things.

And in the meantime, have the nerve to say?
In the name of Jesus.

It's tough being a human being.

Your love
Your love
Just can't escape me.
You're everything that a good man needs.

A little bad mixed with some good.
A little mischievous too.

Your love
Your love
Has been earned by me
I challenged many competitors along the way.

Many of times, I questioned myself.
Was it worth the journey that I went through
But here you stand beside me.

So what else left for me to say?

For, your love, your love
Was meant for me
You're everything that this man needs
Aug 2021 · 78
Something In
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Something, in our past.
We all shame of without admitting what it is?

Something, in our memories, we keep hid.
Regretting the things that we did.

Something, we could have done to help someone.
But only regretting now cause of the trouble that been done.

Something, in our hearts, we all share.
And that's love, we try to hide concerning certain ones.
Aug 2021 · 83
Why
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Why
Why?
Do parents, friends complain more about family members' treatment?
Then the violence those family thugs place upon others.

Go to court, suddenly concern and excuses for the criminal's welfare.

Just maybe, it should be addressed before getting to that point.

What?
You attended church and left the minister out of the process.
Sure, in today's time many of them walk around blind.
But pressure applied at the right time might be an intervention many need.

All types of mindset criminals find God in prison.
They have nothing but time to recall or remember some scriptures line.

Many remember dads back in the day told you upfront.
If you commit any crime except self-defense?
He wasn't coming to jail/prison to see you.

So why show concern?
When they didn't follow laws and protocol?
Aug 2021 · 79
Youth of Stupidity
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Youth, of dumbness.
We constantly witnessing it.
Young thugs truly thinking they are men.
Young women, just as bad.
Until they standing before a judge.

Youth, of stupidity.
We constantly becoming aware of this.
To many gangs members, today are too dumb to realize their group history.

It never ventured totally into hatred of another like the dumb sisters and brothers.

And in the mix of all this mess is the blaming of the parents.
Which to a limited point has some truth to it.
Because some parents are just slightly older than the bad kids of injustice.

And this is where the youth of stupidity started?
Young parents still trying to go out and party.

Daily, watch the news and see this written truth.
And then you must admit everything written here is a vital truth of proof.

Then, these young clowns, within the jail.
Trying to defend themselves against those way tougher than them.
Aug 2021 · 83
Our Greatest Blessing
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Our greatest blessing?
Love.
Our greatest blessing?
Life.

One without the other just leaves us wounded.
Because in all honesty, they both are important.

It's like debating which came first.
When the answer is before our eyes?
And it depends on knowing the answer to this question.

Our greatest blessing?
Love and life, for God, knew various things we required.

And then there is us.
God's greatest creation.
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
It's a mystery why I love you?
But could be because you love me.

It's a mystery why I adore you?
But it might be because of your hugs.

It's a mystery why you're so special?
On, this I will leave you guessing.

But all the clues you need are within your mind.
Just think of them and then apply them.
Aug 2021 · 73
I Wonder What God Doing
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
In a universe totally under his control.
I wonder what God is doing?

Obviously, he is monitoring us.
Obviously, he constantly correcting us.
And for sure pushing us to share his love for us.

Then if push comes to shove?
He probably just relaxing and laughing at us.

Those that say, there is no God.
But the first sign of lightning they praying for all of us.

Or when he roars thunder across the earth.
The more fear in people soon comes forth.

We are aware that one tried to hide in Genesis.
Like parents laughing when their kids try to hide from them?

Obviously, God even laughing too at them.

Then, in truth, we are aware God constantly motivating us to do better.
Aug 2021 · 69
Just Asking
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
We preached they were the first married couple.
Mainly, by being the first human being.
But sometimes, in a humorous way you wonder, if Eve asked Adam?
Where is the ring?

Just asking.

We don't read anyone saying I do.
We just know human wise they are the first two.
Aug 2021 · 121
Love With A Purpose
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Love, with a purpose?
It is always blessed.
It's worth more than your jewelry in a treasure chest.

You can't pawn it.
You can't loan it.
All you can honestly do is own it.

Love, with a purpose.
Is always searched for.
Eventually, you are blessed to make it yours.

You can't run from it.
You can't hide from it.
All you can do is try to deny it.
But eventually, it will be seen.

Love, with a purpose.
Is only hidden in a few?
Because, if you look within a lover's eyes?
It more than lightly be seen.
Aug 2021 · 294
The Depth of My Love
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Oh, there is no limitation.
There's no restriction in place.
Because the depth of my love can never be traced.

My kind is original.
My kind is search for by many.
One thing is truly guaranteed it will never be empty.

It is compared to and more.
Rest assured, it can never ever be destroyed.
Because the depth of my love is all yours.
Aug 2021 · 90
Unemployed (Why)
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Job, everywhere?
So why?
When driving?
Are we seeing those holding up signs?
None, ever saying they would work for pay.

For sure, an alcoholic needs his thirst daily it appears.
But if they apply themselves just imagine things they are able to do afford.

Then, what youth?
Should be out robbing?
Job signs, requesting help.

Sometimes, you must give up the leisure of hanging with friends.
A broke pocket gets you nowhere?

Even, if you a racist?
Realize, bills see no color.
It's like love so unselfishly.

So if you unemployed?
The question remains why?
Aug 2021 · 116
Society Ills
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Society ills.
Thugs, like being members of prison.
Crooks in business like being members of jail.

Even, the fame or famous eventually land there.

Society ills.
And it's not totally about the father not being in the home.
Many good men with mothers raising them have done very well.

Even fathers that raised great daughters alone.

Society's ills, come from the weakness of those to challenge themselves.

Even, when offering an opportunity to do well?
We see bright minds eventually fail.
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
We, ALL have some form of mental illness affecting us.
Especially, this present generation that makes it a summary of new events.

But, if addressing that subject against days of old.
Then this present generation isn't strong or bold.

Nothing dealing, with health, should be taken lightly.

But remember the Civil Rights fighters and the hell they went through.
Remember, those Asian Americans were placed in American vase concentration camps.
Remember, every single battlefield soldiers(war warrior) of any war.

And then reflect on the failures and the success to overcome.
No, not forget any of their mess and conflict.

Remember, the Indians long before this term of Native American became the thing.
News, don't report it?
Many have nothing negative about that old name.
Then, the news doesn't report all things correctly.

To them, it's a rating game.

So yes, mental illness is a serious issue we all must face.
Just don't jump on it because of the Olympic games.
While some love to blame the pressure of the people to win.

Notice, they not crying about the wealth and riches that come their way.
Aug 2021 · 87
Power of the Tongue
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
We have all been told if you can't say anything good about anyone?
Don't say anything at all.
Then comes those ministers, with their view before those seated in the pews.

Instantly, this style of life is offensive to the world.
And goes against the scriptures.

And instantly like quiet mouses members of the church agree.
Well, while seated in the church because in certain sectors of the company, they comprehend the power of the tongue can hurt various ones.

But, offer criticism of the minister they fly into scriptures that it states not to put your tongue upon them.
And lately like in the past they are the wicked ones.

Just hiding behind the power of the tongue.

If happy?
Let no other destroy your joy.
It's your life.
It's your world.
Why do others feel the need to attack it?

When others control if they adapted to sadness?
Aug 2021 · 221
Recognize , My Love
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
It's relevant.
This truth is very important.
Recognize, my love for you.
It forever will affect you.

That is the purpose of shared love.

So recognize my love accepting you as my number one.

It's in everything I do for us.
To recognize its importance that other refuses to see.
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
I gave you breath from the dust or through the nostrils.
Recognize my power for I alone is powerful.

I gave you light and darkness that are represented by day and night.
I created love and you created sin?
Now decide which you truly want to call a friend.

All the things you enjoy could change at a moment's notice.
You are blessed more than those before you man, many, many decades ago.

Without air, your existence will go nowhere.
Recognize my power.
Without the sun radiating heat and other elements involved.


Everything, dealing with this world is required.
Just recognize my power to end it all.

And that strength I do have.
Aug 2021 · 165
Salute To the Single Father
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Accolades, you might not get.
Or remind others that you're a single dad.
We are most likely to hear that coming from ladies being single mothers.

Many men, just accept and try their best to step up.
And there are many kids of single fathers well aware of the job well done.

Sure, like many women they might have had help from sisters, aunts, and of course mom.

But for a role, many men don't brag about it.
In the eyes of that son or daughter, they can state with honesty and truth.

A job well done.
Of course, a few mistakes might have been made.
But in all honesty, some men deserve to be praised.
Aug 2021 · 99
But You Do
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
We hear it spoken.
It's a part of the acting within us.
I don't see the color of a person's skin.

But you do.
The moment another race or heritage brings harm to you.
Then out comes the truth.

We, don't need friends and kind to expose you.
You took care of that yourself.
The moment you in rage spoke on that matter.

And like many of any race wants to apologize after.
Aug 2021 · 605
No One's Better Than You
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
No one's better than you.
No one loves me as you do.

No one is stronger than you.
Or see the good that's within me.

Yes, I'm blessed by your love.
And I trust highly in your lord.

No one's better than you.
No one loves me as you do.

No one.
No one.

When darkness surrounds me?
I see the light shining through it all.
Because no one is stronger than you are.
I have nothing but praise for you in my heart.

And I am blessed by your love.
And highly trust in your love.

Cause no one better than you, lord.
Aug 2021 · 82
Black Queen
jeffrey conyers Aug 2021
Be my princess.
Be different than the rest.
Too many like the title Black Queen just to be considered vital.

As the princess of my heart.
You more important hour after hour, minute after minute.

Get, not upset with the man refusing to be called King.
Unless he is your only heart controller.
Your first and only lover.

If?
He is like number four.
You just stating the word to make yourself feel good.
In his mind, he is aware of what number he has been assigned.

Men toss Black Queen as they adapted it to their tongue to say.
Especially for charming the women that come their way.
Jul 2021 · 87
What? Do You See?
jeffrey conyers Jul 2021
Ladies, what?
Do you see in a man without a job?
To a hard-working man that a question in need of an answer.

Then, ladies what do you see in a **** that loves to rob?
Prison eventually gonna be their home.
Then you complaining, how he has done you wrong?

The voice you make carries a lot of weight.
Similar avoidance on a bad planned date.

Let not looks dictate your heart.
And fall not to being a prey of a man that claims to follow God's heart.
Some of them are worst than the man with no job.
Jul 2021 · 97
Come Forth
jeffrey conyers Jul 2021
This is a poem.
But with more of a serious tone.
A president long ago spoke truth and honesty.
What Is there to fear but fear itself?

Come forth or come forward?
If you being abused?
Let not that abuser keeps on abusing you.
Fear, within them more than in you.

If you been *****?
Come forth.
Help exists to assist you and capture the ******.
Come forward, exposure has no limitation.

If you're a runaway and trying to make it home?
Well, if that environment was better than your present circumstances?
Reach out, come forth.
In life mistakes, we all have made.

If you're been or have been molested?
You are in power to have those living arrested.
They hiding in the shadows of their wicked sin just for things they have done.

If the minister is not being a good shepherd?
Jesus, words are your best helper.
Sure, a few blinded fools will try to defend them.
Then they are the ones thinking they are perfect but hiding a few clues.

If your heart is a heavy burden?
Come forth, yes come forward many are here for you.
Jul 2021 · 95
Right From Wrong
jeffrey conyers Jul 2021
Twisted mind state phases, snitches get stitches.
Then seek revenge outlaw style.
But remember, when we were taught right from wrong?

Sometimes, you would think those days are gone.
Until a truth emerges.
That there are still some honorable souls around.

Not those silent ones to ****.
To ******.
To whatever?

Some firm in telling.
Jul 2021 · 75
Take Away
jeffrey conyers Jul 2021
Take away the water.
We complain.
Similar to when it rain?

Take away the sun.
We will fuss.
Argue and even cuss.
Well, not all of us.

Take away the air.
We just can't breathe.
The power of God is a vital thing

Take away the phone.
And many would have to talk once more.

Presently, texting is a thrill to many
Jul 2021 · 79
Guilt Trips
jeffrey conyers Jul 2021
Oh, scriptures, will be used.
To get you to give.
Words, like you, are not blessed because of this or that.
Or would a man rob God?

But some churches operate on guilt trips.

Sometimes, you see it the moment you invites a guest minister.
This, the master of the guilt trip.

Some starts high might be a hundred offers.
Or fifty offering.
Slowly reaching the range of the true people.

The souls that truly make up the church.

Oh, they use lights, or whatever required to cop guilt?

But none admit most ministers lead with tax-free money.
Jul 2021 · 615
But(Where Is The Love)
jeffrey conyers Jul 2021
So, you live in luxury.
But where is the love?

You talk about your cars and jewelry.
