Heart needs a change of clothes


hey,
so....i be good sometimes. i mean i be good. u know feeling good. feeling like i have command over a situation. feel like i can keep it movin in a forward motion. feelin comfortable in ma skin. feelin good. u know. then somedays, i jus feel like the wind be blowing me every which-a-way and my command over the winds get blown away as well. jus uncertain, a bit lost, a bit scared. then i get these sober moments when i know the devil jus is on his A-game. i mean lying like he ain't neva lied b4 everytime. just a gunnin for me. and i realize that i need my God to be in command all the time, and i realize Her presence on the scene is dependent upon me. dependent upon ma faith and love and willingness to invite Him into my heart -my center that drives my feelings which i heavily act upon. and man, i just know that my heart needs a change of clothes, some new shoes, jus need to be made over.
take my heart and mold it to liken yours, Oh Lord

as i eat a bagel w/ a cluttered mind


each time i express
each time i refrain
losing myself as i repress
i pray we all remain

all the me's that
from time to time get silenced
i sit, sitting, sat
slumped in my chair reminiscent

conversing, politicking now
about how to get better with God
with each word about
the ways to quicken my spirit, i give a head nod

prayer prayer,
fulfilling God's pleasure
needing to be reading scripture
the manual of Emmanuel

for He is with me
and i Know it
surrounding but I can't see
and sometimes my feelings don't show it

so day to day
i pray to remember to invite You into my heart
renew, new page
get a chance at a new start

and i'm thankful
always thankful
tho hopeless and feeling doubtful
at times
i pray to never forget You

for You and only You know what's best
so You and only You
I'll let near my breast
accurately beneath my chest
secure in my valentine vest

i digress

nmmhm
i feel better already
i'm either ready or deady
do or die they say
do then die he said
do it then make your bed
so no regret

forward
onward
torward
my destiny

knowing * FEELING

life may not be hard but it feels like it. the conflicting entities of flesh and spirit. the dichotomy of what you feel and what you know. why it is innate to want what can self destruct. why? i sit. i think, to try to not think - things to not think, and thus i think. i wish knowing better can be more powerful than feeling illogically. i try to convince myself that what i know will serve me well than the contradicting feelings of my flesh. some may say this criticizing-self approach is not the way but it is what i feel.

preposition for the day: OVER



yea
its over
been over
i'm over it
tho i reminisce over and over
wondering what has come over me
i hit myself over the head
to WAKE UP
i'll have my eggs over easy

this pensive state is quite overdue
i must keep my head over water
and leap over the obstacles in ma way
led by God's light shining over me

i heard over conversation
and overheard
MOVE ON don't move over
you're no pushover
but with emotion my cup runneth over
now with logic shall i get over this
but sincere i'm over it
for now...............................................
moreover
for tomorrow

at the piercing sound of the knife

with relief

HEARTBREAK

i smile with jubilee

they neva told me how sweet it would be

is to describe joyful pain

i carry my bags tripping over myself

i hold my head up high

now realizing who the second dress is for


the more the merrier tocelebrate

filled with glasses

HIGH HIGH HIGH
TO THE SKY

with bleeding hearts
i rejoice in pain
