Our faithful loving God
Keeps an eye on you
Always watching over e
Everything you do
He knows it all, see's it all
And even hears your faintest cry
And he's present in the midnight hour
As you watch the time go bye
They say it's always darkest
Just before the dawn
And even in those dreadful hours
God can give a song
He is loving he is faithful
He will ever keep his word
He's closer than a brother
And much sharper than a sword
His patience never weaken
He never slumbers, never sleeps
And when you go to sleep at night
He your soul will keep
So if your reading this
My friend you should be grateful
That you right now can give him time
To prove to you He's Faithful
He is the rose of Sharon
The brightest morning star
No one else compares to him
No matter near or far
His fragrance is so sweet
He's like the morning dew
And he can be the sweetest rose
And bloom in your heart too
Oh come, taste and see
That that the Lord is good
He'll lighten all your heavy load
Just like he said he would
Let the rose of Sharon
Come live in you today
And let his Holy Spirit
Fill you every day
There lives a woman who
Seems mystical, even mythical
--It is true--
Because she is biblical;
Rarer than a precious jewel.

She is virtuous
She is loyal
She is courteous...

She is royal.

She shines brilliantly, like a star cluster trapped inside a room.
She glistens like jubilant sun rays dancing atop the ocean.
The wind of her voice sets inspiration in motion,
Like a sonic boom.

She is powerful.

She is virtuous,
Who is worthy? Just
Wonder & coil
In a corner & toil
As you ponder this.
And honor this
Acknowledgment,

Because she is royal.

Don't dare compare her to the likes of
Nefertiti or Isis.
They are not so estimable,
You couldn't buy her even with a million zeros before the decimal,
Because...

She is priceless.

So the King adorned her,
Because the King adores her.

She is beautiful, so they say,
But such a meager word could not suffice,
Because her true charm emanates like waves
In the ardent expression of her practice of life.
And from her mind and her soul.
Her precious heart--more precious than gold--
Looks like a kaleidoscope of rare gems,
Darting dazzling colors; the spectrum in whole.

Diamonds die in comparison,
Hand her a diadem...

She is special
She is jovial
She is gentle

She is royal.

She is not haughty,
Nor does she flaunt like worldly wenches do.
She tells girls who've been told they're peasants they can be a princess too.
She is not naughty,
Nor does she taunt like wanton vixens do...

Because she is godly.

Yes, indeed there lives a woman who
Seems mystical, even mythical
--But it is true--

She is virtuous,

She is royal...

She is you.
Written for a woman I adore. Not my wife or girlfriend or anything like that. Just someone I knew.
I dreamt of you for the very last time
And let my mind accept you once more
A distant shadow, you stood
A grey and cloud-like silhouette
I knew at once that it was you.
A sliver of my heart felt
Heavy with melancholy
But towards you, I’d want not to go
Nor did my eyes wish once to dial
As light breathed through your smog-like stance
And whispered warm and gentle tones
That danced a hymn around my skin
And resting safely on my bones
What warmth awakens life within!
Bouncing light in all directions
To the darkest cockles of my soul
And Its thermal embers melted
A weighted piece that had clung so desperate
Dripped unto the patient upward palm
Downward
      Release,
            Relief,
                Trickled
                     The
                     Very
                      Last
                      Memory
                      Of
                      You.
Oh God, You are all I want especially when I feel blue
Change my life and make me new
Turn my darkness into light
I am nothing yet You love me the way more than I like.

I will give You praise and worship You
I will do that all my life just for You
Hold my hand don’t let me go
I just want to be with You wherever I go.

You are the only God, most powerful above all
You are the King and Lord of all
You are Just, Loving and Holy
You are the One who can complete me.

Oh, You are all I need,
And will always be my need.

I used to keep my heart on my sleeve
so naive and easily deceived
any lie told to me, I would believe
my mind fought what my heart perceived

trying to find all of the right signs
I hid my heart and tried my mind
then within those dark confines
I've come to find that my heart was blind
