funny how loud your conscience is after you've...
Why is self-control so hard to master?
Momentary lapses lead to pits
Can’t help but feel I need to grow faster
Same vice, endless lists
Punching holes in my integrity
Dipping my character in darkness
To put up a shield is my duty
But I’ve made foolish repetitions a business

How often do you find yourself wishing you were someone else. Not even a celebrity or a friend, but a different version of you. Do you ever wish “I wish I was a less shy version of me” or a more serious version or a more chill version? Well here is the deal, you have to stop it. Now if it’s “I…

Moses' wife
Zipporah
Sparrow of the desert
Daughter of rest and riches
Diadem of the priest’s tent
Sun kissed and anointed
Oasis for the prophet
Few words are spoken of you
Wise woman of Midian
You loved a murderous foreigner,
Your lover’s life forever
Is indebted to you

True?
I submit to you that if a man hasn’t discovered something that he will die for, he isn’t fit to live. - MLK jr

Precious Pavements
Exodus 24:10 And there was under His feet as it were a paved work of sapphire stone, and it was like the very heavens in its clarity
What we consider precious and of high value, God uses as pavement.

Listen
When I say… “I am a Christian” I don’t speak of this with pride. I’m confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

Eve's apple?
People often ask me, “Since God is all knowing why did He make a forbidden tree”
But you know, if God removes temptation, then what choice do we have???
We just become programmes dont we? if we have no choice but to do good, then that’s no choice at all…

The Only Answer
doggerel-haiku:
just because i don’t respond doesn’t mean you’ve won it’s hard to see the answer when you can’t see past your education there are times you need to stop look and listen before you speak there are times you need to put yourself in someone else’s shoes there are times you need to remember that just because you know an answer it doesn’t mean it’s the only one.

Blind
If we lived in a world
Were vision was a mystery
Would our words
Be in utter misery?
From falsettos to octaves
In shouts and whispers
Words will form our enclaves
Yet sting like vipers
A world were beauty is discovered
by touch, sound, smell and taste
but sight is not featured
there would be no haste
The famed mountain rose
Would be of no greater esteem
Than a valley’s poppy, woe for prose
But...

Ambition Over Adversity

this is beautiful (not mine)
gnarly-carly:
When you find a man
Who transforms
Every part of you
Into poetry,
Who makes each one of your hairs
Into a poem,
When you find a man,
Capable,
As I am
Of bathing and adorning you
With poetry,
I will beg you
To follow him without hesitation,
It is not important
That you belong to me or him
But that you belong to poetry.

imperfect saint
I struggle with my imperfection
Turmoil in my soul
Is a restless commotion
My vices make me pay that toll
Sinner by default, saint by redemption
Yet iniquities lay in this vault
My joy is not for auction
So I accept the cracks
Without them there is no illumination
I do not raise a white flag
For I must relinquish these transgressions
But my humanity, you can’t subtract
So here I am with my...

i was just looking at poems in tumblr
its amazing how much effect people have on our lives. Relationships are the nourishment of our existence, i think it’s paolo coelho that said build strong impenetrable walls and you will never be hurt but you will always be lonely
but bring the walls down and you will get hurt but you’ll have those who care.
Something along those lines…

Mt Sinai
Everest and Kilomanjoro bow before you
Amongst planetary hills
you are the greatest
for holding the weight of the creator
as He emerged from His throne
for enduring the quakes as those
around you skipped like rams
the clouds in fright thundered applause
as the stage was cast and you played your part
sparks from the heel of the Almighty
graced your roots
yet with courage you stood

NO. I don’t know if my actions are drastic But i’m gonna stick with it.

more thoughts before coffee
alldashyt:
Controlling your thoughts
is as simple as telling
the sun it should set.
———————————-
love will turn the fools
into wise men, the same as
wise men into fool.
———————————-
Our friends and neighbors
all have separate burdens
that we can help hold
————————————-
I challenge you to
to win a staring contest
with death or the sun

Your presence makes it difficult to enun
Enu
Enun
Enunciate,
Lost for words
Yet humming a chorus
I try to take my gaze off you
I’m stuck
As a tide to an ocean
What is this potion?
Overflowing detail
The glaze of your neck
The raise of your cheeks
The praises that I seek
To describe how
A flash of your molars
And the occasional canines
Can have me so
Lost for words
Yet humming a chorus
Of which I...

The Journey
Like a motorway needs traffic lights
So I too, need you
My thoughts are in traffic at this junction
As a seemingly endless highway
That leads to your heart
Lies ahead
How fast can I possibly travel those miles?
I sit in my vehicle of anticipation
Staring at your red light
Never have I so much appreciated
the colour of grass
The colour of leaves
It’s only natural that I want to see green
But I...

People fear the DEVIL, more than they love GOD..

God says obey and listen to my commandments, i admit i dont obey all the time but i love God. i will never deny God, i have never denied Him, yet i don’t think i have that same reverence the israelites of the old testament did. but thats not the type of...
