Nahla’s Cry
Ashley R Wright Oct 2018
free me from my mind
free me from the signs
free me from predation,
of the sons of perdition
free me from the lust that carved Solomon’s bruise
I verse away the blues
Only to choose, the tune of you
‪enslaved by insecurities‬
believing I’m healed
because I cease expectation
admitting no role, to the lost soul not only Adam & Eve
but Jezebel and Ahab
is who we are,
and what we’ve become

Sangriento Éxodo
Ashley R Wright Oct 2018
I knew help was needed
when I laid down my sword
felt like I was dying inside
enslaved by insecurities
abused with lies
I pushed myself to the side
to ride for the wrong one
thought I was meeting HER,
then I ran into you
my hairs gray but you’ve dyed my soul blue
the mad man blows me east to west
The great spirit, My abba,
in my soul, He invests
I’m ending my complaints
learning to play the hand
keeping my eyes upon the sand
