How
Broken promises
Fragmented vows
Falsely promising security
and leaving one wondering how.
How did we have hope?
How did it come to this?
How did our expectations peak
When we've always known the world is amiss?
Keith Manzano May 2016
"While only death do us part.
I pray to the very God,
who put us together,
That you and I,
Should never part.
In this lifetime .........
Or the next."

Devil just can't get a hold of me
'Cause God's life and death has set me free
Devil just can't keep me down
'Cause not even death could keep Jesus in the ground
Devil won't take my eyes
'Cause Jesus has power over the prince of lies
Devil don't own my heart
'Cause God made me his right from the start
Devil can't bind my hands
'Cause God has my life under his commands
Devil won't hold my feet
'Cause Jesus stood strong when taking heat
Devil won't steal my soul
'Cause Jesus is he who fills the hole
Devil can't steal my strength
'Cause Jesus is my rock, refuge, and with him I'll go great lengths
Devil don't bind my chest
'Cause when I'm at my weakest, God's at his best
Devil just can't hold me back
'Cause God will protect me from attack
Devil can't control my *****
'Cause God satisfies  fully when, to his, our hearts we join

Blazing hot with the Holy Spirit
The devil runs for fear of it
To God I give my entire being
His power sends the devil fleeing
When Jesus is present on my mind
I can leave the devil far behind
In Christ's eternal perfect love
Devil says: "Aye, there's the rub"
In faith and trust I hold to hope
Feet are firm against the devil's steep *****
In God I take great joy and delight
That the devil can't hope to steal my light
Jesus is my source of peace
Devil won't win but he doesn't cease
To God I sing hymns of praise
To fend off the devil's cold embrace
To serve the Lord is a great honor
My life was saved by a blood donor
To God be power and wonder and glory
Spoiler: The devil loses at the end of the story!
Jesus is the lover of my soul
Devil just don't have any control

Saw your words last night
on the social media site
you proclaim such happiness now
yet, you refused to keep your vow
of always being there to love, to help me
that's okay--I'm learning it's better to be free.
Seems I would have this all figured out by now, but each day brings new awareness and yes, some roadblocks too, but slowly figuring out I don't need him (or anyone) to find me. I have to do that on my own...

I ask not
For your hand
In marriage
I long
For so much
More
Wont you see
These hands
As ours
In life
Forevermore

I'll be there for you
Five words to ease the blues
–the promise

I'll be there for you
Five words with faded hues
–the lie

Gone with the wind
None is what's left
Done and now,

–the vow:
Five words to set me free
Five words, this time I'll be
I'll be here for me

Trust and believe in yourself first before others.

Head over heals he fell in love with a kite,
who would have her pleasures only at flight,
she took him over a hill,
and pleasured him to his fill,
overwhelmed, they took a vow to be life time mates.
Kite is the name for the birds of the family Accipitridae
Together we drew a map to a better place
somewhere far away from this world of disgrace..
A map which would help us to find love's trace..

But on that road,i took a fall
in the hatred's hall..
now that i recall,
between us stands this wall..

I've lost the taste of a sweeter life,
i'm living on the edge of a knife..
in the search of you,i will strife..

because,all the roads you took came back to me
to lose you,i disagree..
you and me together again is everything i can foresee..

After all these things we endured..
the times we argued..
our souls stayed glued..

why leave now?
we'll be one again..this is my vow..

I'm following the maps that lead to YOU

Vow
I will take the time
to gaze upon
the burnished chest
of the resident hawk
while I am waiting
for the sun to drop
and pastel
the water blue

I will patiently
wait
for the mountains
to radiate
for my heart
to steady
for the return
of peace

I will relinquish
control over
my tiny world
scattered thoughts
flying up
brushing
their curved wings
against me

I will remember
land and sea
will forever be
remaining long after
we hurt each other
long after we turn
our backs
on love

I will take the time
to be still
moon balanced
on my open palm
illusive beacon
enlighten
the coming
night

~~¤~~

You held my hand like you never wanted me to go away
You kissed me passionately like you just want me to remember it each day
We danced gracefully with the solemnity of the bright night sky
We made a vow under the blue moon with tears in our eyes...

~~¤~~

Once upon our time...and it will never change.
