Revelations reveals Royalty,
The Word reads Loyalty,
from hell and back –  My God, He’s tough.
what I do will never be enough!
gave His life for me,
today and tomorrow the best I strive to be.

Used to live in sin,
The World and demons I let in,
skipping church to sleep,
Saturday night left me in deep,
hard to see the truth,
dodging the confessional booth.

From every other Sunday,
I’ve turned to a better way,
Nonbelievers stare,
He’s shown me His Word is meant to share,
Walking in the light,
Secure and protected at night.

God has shown me life,
Believe in the Holy Spirit, Lord,Jesus Christ,
Left behind what I knew,
Soul searching became true,
Damaged and broken – now so pure,
God’s given me eternal life for sure.

Ignite

On nights like this,
Happiness doesn’t seem key.
Old feuds add fumes to a dim fire,
Still fresh enough to burn the bitter taste in the  mouth.
To take trip back to the day, occasion, setting,
Recall every instant, conversation
And realize how irrelevant the frustration was.
To have the thought of another woman there,
Seeing her touch what belonged to someone.
Over protective, rightfully being,
Laugh about it later but then it was no joke.
And realize how naive the reaction was,
The quick jealousy and anger,
Beyond the self control,
The fire ignited, flames burned inside,
Yet the fight never begun.
Discussion over the matter,
Solution to the problem,
Love and certainty to comfort her insecurities,
Over what, but why? He questioned.
Look at her, he commanded.
What comparison? He examined.
She was speechless, to see who it was,
A face to the name, a sigh of relief.
She was his one and only,
The other one has no relevance.
But she worried, he assured her he loved her.
His actions showed love,
His words spoke loyalty,
His body sensed desire,
And then she fell at ease.
Knowing what she had wasn’t leaving,
Snatched or disposed of,
Their love is real,
From the days prior to it’s beginning,
To the many months they’ve shared.
Their love is real,
And between them nothing stands,
LOVE they say,
Not a routine but something the heart needs.
AFFECTION they show,
Because they’ve never had what they have,
LOYAL they remain,
For unlike the other their isn’t one for each other.
