MY VALENTINE

Made in God’s Reflection, wonderfully and fearfully imaged
Your love reflects Him, which places no limits

Vacuous expressions, because I’m amazed at the essence of
Alluring this Angel that’s placed in my presence
Love? Understatement!
Engaged in amazement of your fragrant spirit that
No edible arrangement or teddy bear sprayed with cologne could even come near it
The musical composition is carefully placed and unbroken
If God was fine tuning this love to our music, His opus brings unfathomed hope
Not just for one morning, one day, one night but
Everyday is Valentine’s Day with you in one life

GOD I'm WEAK....

God I’m WEAK…I thought that I was strong
And then I realized I couldn’t do this on my own
Lord I feel so alone….where has everybody gone?
Where are My “friends till the end “ in the end….everybody’s gone
Lord give me direction…..I know I’ve slipped in mess whenI should’ve listened to you…. now I just sit here in depression

God I’m WEAK...
All I need is you ….but your face not your hands
I need another “one more chance”, reveal to me your plans
Now I can’t sleep….b/c all I do is keep…on thinking about the week
when I shoulda been reading your Word
but I was sleeping around being a freak

God I'm WEAK...
But Lord it’s you I seek, I’m trying to reach higher
I’ve been labeled as a whore, player, hypocrite…liar
That I should give it up this Christian walk..just retire
like there’s no chance…..no way that I can please the Messiah

God I’m WEAK….
Lord I know that people will judge me on my past and….
It’s even harder when I can’t even look past it
Although it’s Past tense…I see it in my future
I try to change, but I still do the things that I’m used to

God I’m STRONG…
Because my Past doesn’t define me
It doesn’t end here….so here is where they won’t find me
I’m tired of landing on my back…it’s time I land on my feet
I’m not turning back ….it’s time for a new season…so bye heat
I know I reap what I sow…What’s happened in the past is done
So I gotta move forward and keep my eyes on the prize…. The SON

It'll All Be Worth It

If I had to tell you how much I love you

I wouldnt know where to start

If I had to show you how much I love you

I would just give you my heart

This long distance we have

brings us closer together

because when it comes down to it

It'll be I do...you do.....we do....Forever

Conversations over the phone and Skype

doesn't doesnt really do it justice

because each second leaces me breathless

and sometimes it just feels like just....us

and I'm so glad that he blessed us

My job is to love you like Christ loved the Church

to love you even when it hurts

we both know the relationship wont be perfect

but I promise you Ithat it'll all be worth it

Teach Me How to LOVE

I asked God to teach me to love his people

To rejoice with Truth and NEVER delight in evil

To always trust, to hope

knowing that He will always protect me.

With his unconditional love...unlike others

He would never neglect me

To be patient...kind...and to help me persevere

To be the last to speak and be the first to hear.

To be content with what I have and NEVER boast

because if it wasnt for Him...my blessings would be toast

To keep no records of wrong

when thats how they do me

To not be easily angered by strangers

or to behave rudely

To never envy when someone has what Im desiring

To never seek self ...and if so....retire me

Love never fails

with everything I stated above...

but I also gain NOTHING

if I have not LOVE

The Christian Struggle

Its hard being transparent

and its also hard to call HIM

but how can someone help you

if they dont even know you've fallen?

So now we're staying quiet

like a dog covered with a muzzle

and we wonder why something's missing

like the PEACE without the puzzle

So aint no talkin to our friends

about our problems and our struggles

Because if they knew our weaknesses

then they may no longer love us

We have a problem with our friends

but we always say "We're cool"

So we tell them that we're praying for them

well....atleast we say we do.....

We're not focused on our FAM in CHRIST

and you know thats a no-no

One Body....Many Members

So why we claim we runnin solo??

That's why we're so low

we don't love each other no mo'

We supposed to be on the same team but we not

"no HOMO"

I aint talkin' sexual

let's talk about sex ya know?

the late night texts...leading to late night sex

leads to....well....

Im movin on to the next ya....

My family actin' crazy

so its hard to stay encouraged

I mean I love my fam ......

but they're not as blessed as yours!

I know I shouldn't compare

I'm not hating on your blessings

but I can't sleep at night because I wonder

when will he ever bless me?!

Its easy to say we trust God

and not trust HIM to know whats best

we all want a testimony

but don't want to study for the test

We say "Let go and Let God"....let him do the rest

SO ITS ABOUT THAT TIME THAT WE WALK WHAT WE PROFESS

UNcomMAN

"UNcomMAN" or (Uncommon MAN)....What is UNcommon? Uncommon is how a man should treat a woman...but dont.....Women are always complaining about men being "dogs" or "no good...you know whats...etc" but there are men who are out there worth being with...NOW I KNOW..not ALL men are perfect..that's just not going to happen, but there's no excuse for a woman to be treated WRONG....Sooooo...hope u enjoy..


UNcomMAN

The one that says you're beautiful
instead you're full of booty
Cause your body is a temple
and worth much more than rubies

The one who constantly thinks about you
so he's consistently callin
He's not jealous or insecure
but in love with you he's fallin

He tries to spend time with you
every chance he get
Not the one who's calling late at night
talkin bout can he hit

Says you have a pretty smile
even though you already know you got it
Knows your whole name and personality
before he tries to get to know your body

Sends you random texts
just to let you know he loves you
Puts you in another place
every time he rubs you

See his love for you
is UNconditional
He might not wanna hear what you have to say
but he'll still listen though

The one who randomly picks you up
and takes you for a ride
But he won't tell you where you going
it's supposed to be a surprise
Because he remembers that one place
you talked about that night
but you still dont know what's happening
cause you probably forgot right?!

The one that stayed on your mind
that's why you couldn't sleep
Because you would always fantasize
about the time he rubbed your.....feet
Even after you kept saying
"No...they're ugly to me"
But he grabbed them dogs anyway
and said "They look pretty cute to me"

Everytime you say "Am I talking too much
he say "Naw baby I love to listen"
But deep down this dude wishin
"Will she ever be quiet"...but he knows you like attention

He's the dude who let's you win the argument
even when you wrong
You get that funny feeling
everytime he plays "your song"

So if an UNcomMAN man
is not what you're used to seeing
Then you might wanna take notes
on what you've just been reading.

OVERrated (SEX)

I wrote this poem, because I wanted to open people's eyes. My eyes were opened. This is coming from someone who LOVED sex. Sex was a god to me, and I know I'm not the only one who struggled with it. SEX is something that's VERY HARD to overcome, because it's the MOST SATISFYING. Sex is NOT a game, because your soul is on the line. God didn't give us sex to go around and satisfy ourselves. SEX was made to produce, be fruitful and multiply (with your husband/wife). GOD wants you to enjoy sex.....but NOT outside of his will and his blessings. I realize TEMPTATION IS A BEAST...but MY GOD is MORE POWERFUL THAN ANY OBSTACLE. I felt myself being empty even after I got what I wanted, and i realize it was because I was giving a piece of me to other girls. So when I felt empty....I felt like I needed something to fulfill my desires...so I always came back to SEX because I knew it made me feel good, but at the end EVERYONE gets hurt. WE dont have to settle for less than God's perfect will.......so...let this be a testimony...please don't take these words lightly..I don't have a problem with being open....I pray that God gets the glory out of this poem. That is all that matters....be blessed. 1 Corinthians 6:18

OVERrated (SEX)

First off, let me start off with an open statement

Let's not be naive anymore, sex before marriage is OVERrated

Your flesh takes OVER ya spirit, but he already came OVER your house

and now after u gave OVER your goods, he already wants out

but rewind.....the SEX is OVER so what's next?!

the dude who was all OVER you says that "friendship" is best?

the same dude that was in your bed cOVER 5 minutes ago

I bet he looks at you differently now, he pegged you as a h.....

and you know that aint true, but your mind is OVERclouded,

so now you question your worth in this world...yeah you OVER doubting


and now you contemplating OVER AND OVER again you dont know what went wrong

You gave a piece of your soul to him....consider it dead and gone

your mind is OVERloaded from all the guilt and pain

You wish you could do it OVER again, but this time it would change

please realize

You too beautiful to be going through all the stress and strain


You thought he was the one, thought he was your lOVER

but now he's OVER you....and he's on to another

you don't really need this , your life is torn in pieces

it's not too late beautiful, give your life OVER to Jesus

he would never hurt you, he would never take your soul

he'll take your emptiness away, he'll make you whole; OVERflow

YOU have the power to OVERcome, be cOVERed in his blood

you need a makeOVER so get cOVERed in his love

God will OVERride your sin, cause flesh was OVER you

so go ahead and repent for your sexual ways....it is long OVERdue
