Seems Like My Sooner Than Later Was Your Last Time
My needs are simplistic
He said they weren’t realistic
And because he dismissed it
I went ballistic
Seems like…
The more I sought
The more he fought
To dodge my emotions like a sport
I wanted to spend quality time
He’d rather hang with the fellas and get fried
Cheeks salty from the tears I cried
No longer could I trust him
He done told too many lies
Seems like…
The more I sought
The more he fought
To dodge my emotions like a sport
Sooner than later…
I found out
What I would
Was that I shouldn’t
And what he should
Was that he couldn’t
Last time…
He came around
He was the one down
His smiles soon reverted to a frown
Now who looks like a clown?
Last time…
I‘d be kicked in the rear
No longer will I shed a tear
Long gone are those blind episodes
I got a new flash
Now the pictures clear.
Seems Like my Sooner than Later was your Last Time…

TOO HASTY
I met a fine man
He was clean as a slate
But his spirit was somewhat full
So I said, "What's on your plate?"
He said, "I was served the wrong meal.
Didn't check to see what was the deal
Should not have bitten this thing
Now pain is all I feel."
He said, "It looked appetizing
This entrée was pleasing to the eye
I just couldn't pass it by
"So of course, I had to investigate
Yes, I gave it a taste
However, to my surprise it was bland
It was a big waste"
I told him, "You gotta take your time; don't fall for infatuations spell"
He asked me, "How could you tell? I said, "Because unseasoned meals seldom proveth well.

Sometimes
Sometimes it hurts too much to live
That we just wanna expire
When the pain that we forbear
Makes the air we inhale too smog to breathe.
So the worlds faulty ICU (Intensive Care Unit) is what we cleave.
Sometimes the sting is just too much to bear
That we’d rather live our lives in fear
When words and actions cut us so deep
That we’d rather hide our emotions and to ourselves we keep
Sometimes the road frequently traveled can make us too contented.
That the road less traveled is often times resented.
When the box is the safest place to reside
That we’d rather exist in it and hide
Than to live outside.
Sometimes decision making can be too problematic
That avoiding them becomes systematic
And our God-given abilities we mistrust
Only to allow others to dictate to us what we must
Sometimes letting go of the old to embrace something new
Is too much suspense
That we’d rather just straddle the fence
Sometimes embracing our identity
Requires too much self examinations
That we’d simply rather….

BEEN THERE, DONE THAT - AINT GOING BACK
Thirteen years I have known you
And I often questioned why we were not a couple
I’ve seen your good, the bad and the ugly
Witnessed your many affairs of trouble
Was there to speak life when your spirits were crumbled
I was young and impressionable
Things I did or didn’t do, just like you, were of course questionable
But through it all, I still held you dear
Too far away from you I could never steer
I am a woman now
Ripe and bursting with glee
If only you knew the interior alterations made
To bring out the magnificence in me
I was all up on your tip
But you wouldn’t give me a sip
It has been a long time coming
And I still require work
But I have matured
The manifestations are continually birthed
Now I see that you desire me
You must have gotten a taste of my reality
But sorry babes; the past is my history
And I am no longer thirsty.

WHO IS THIS LOVE
My love if only you knew how good it feels to have finally met you.
Agape love is what I send you.
Understanding and total support will always be here, as well as
Respect, honor, submissiveness and complete care
I promise to be faithful an always true
Communicating at all times, you’ll never have to read in between the lines
Except for this one time
Love has found me and is here to stay. Nothing will change the way I feel about you. There’s nothing anyone can do or say. If loving you is wrong then that’s a price I’m willing to pay. I’ve loved many and always will but being in love is something rare for me, something brand new.
Somewhere deep within my soul I’ve allowed you to reside to willfully abide in a place no other love has ever been before. Many have knocked but for you I have opened the door. I’ve allowed you to be my lover, confider, protector and most of all, my friend. I’ve never been in love, though the mere thought of it leaves me more and more anxious to be.
If being in love is what I am feeling now then I must say it’s the best feeling I’ve ever had. This love always put a smile on my face, even when I am upset or sad. This unconditional love I’ve receive is evidence of how much love has for me.
Despite how selfish or inconsiderate I may be. Love always manages to forgive me. This must be real love, because I’m usually the one giving and never receiving reciprocity.
How wonderful it is to finally be loved back genuinely. I will forever be appreciative of this love sent to me. So my darling love, I vow to edify you, encourage you, and honor you, until I leave this earth. With or without you being physically near. I know my love will always be here.

JOINT SISTERS
Sister Sister My sister my ace
It blesses my heart to see the smiles on your face
Meticulously made and filled with such splendor
Such a marvelous creature; so glad to meet yah!
So many of us and all are different
Embrace your individuality for it’s the personifies you
However, remember the common ground; we are all sisters
Made by God to love each other and so much more
When we JOIN, it’s hard for anyone to ignore
The unity in our walk, the harmony when we talk.
The grace in our stride, the strength that we provide
Is just a portion of what we possess
Anything we build up through Christ is destined for success
We wouldn’t have it any other way
Because we’re eloquent examples of God’s best
When JOINT SISTERS collaborate
We induce Godly love and admonish hate
Oh, Yes! We are tied by more than just our gender state.
We must connect and work towards fulfilling our predestinated fate.
Look to neither left nor the right
Just reach out to a sister and help win this spiritual fight
Minister to her, encourage her, and help her reach new heights
Embrace the wings behind your back
Let them take flight
I see the halo over your head
Continue to let it shine brightly!

This Is What I Want From You
She said, “What do you want from me?
He said, “I want your honesty, your time and your loving communication.
When I ask of your opinion, it doesn’t mean I want you to be hypercritical or told what I should do. It means, I want the truth and value your input and seek encouragement from you.
When I ask of your time, it doesn’t mean I want to wrestle you for loving. I simply want to enjoy your presence.
When I said, “I want a self-sufficient woman that is secure and confident; it doesn’t mean I want a woman who feels she does not need me. I request this because I too need to be able to trust you.
When I said, I desire your sensitivity and compassion, it doesn’t mean I want your desperation I don’t expect you to allow my wrongs to be right. It means, enlighten me but still love me despite.
When I said, I need some space; it doesn't mean I love you less or that my love is fading. It means I need time with self and no one else.
When I take the time to tell you what’s on my mind. LISTEN! You can only do that when you are SILENT!
When I walk away in the midst of an argument, I don’t need you to provoke me, and No! I am not leaving you; I am getting some air because I refuse to be violent.
When I tell you how to do something, it’s doesn’t mean I am seeking to regulate rather I am trying to educate.
When I mess up and buy gifts, it is because I am trying to find a way to reconcile. I may not be as versed as you but my gifts are genuine and I give these to show that my love for you is true.
From the day I took your hand, I wanted one woman to understand.
This is what I want from you!”

JUST BECAUSE
Just because you have a will
Doesn’t mean it is the right way
Just because you speak your mind
Doesn’t mean all will listen to what you have to say
Just because you have a way with your words
Doesn’t mean your words will have their way with me
Just because you’re appealing to the naked eye
Doesn’t mean that I can’t resist thee
Just because I said, “I was no quitter.”
Doesn’t mean I’ll stay around and suffer neglect
Just because you don’t agree with my convictions
Doesn’t mean that I don’t deserve respect.
Just because your jewelry glitters
Doesn’t mean that you are gold
Just because you’re a straight shooter
Doesn’t mean that you are bold
Just because you have plenty bread
Doesn’t mean you can’t be humble and meek
Just because you claim what’s between you’re inner legs is glee
Doesn’t mean you have to be everybody’s freak
Just because you’re not behind bars
Doesn’t mean that you’re free
Just because we share our views
Doesn’t mean that it is great news
Just because we seem profound
Doesn’t mean that what we share is sound
In fact, just because we can; doesn’t mean Amen!

VICTORIOUS
Ok, so I am getting ready for work. I am too tired to even get up but I did. Somethings came to my spirit today and I ignored them. Like this morning, I heard, take that 50 cents off the dresser, you will need it. I left my cell in the house and didn't wanna go back and get it so I told my daughter to keep it, I get in my car and all of a sudden I just felt like praying so I did, that led to me singing and praising God for all his goodness. This was for a whole 20 min straight, then I turned the radio on and bam my tire blew. I was like OMG!
So guess what??? I didn't have my cell phone to call anyone to assist me. I didn't have any change so I had to pull over and walk a mile to the nearest store which turned out to be Giant Food. I asked for change and was told they couldn't open the cash draw and that I had to purchase something to get change. WOW! $1.29 just to get pack of chewing gum. I called my VP and she came and got me. I had an excellent spare tire in the trunk but no jack.
Moral of the story: Don't ignore the pulls on your heart or your first intuitions, they are normally correct. Had I heeded all that came to my spirit, I probably would not have gone through this long ordeal. Nevertheless, I am well and so is my spirit and I still passed this test. You see I did heed the pull on my heart to pray and that prayer and praise came before the tire incident and brought on peace so I was not emotionally or mentally overwhelmed. I just laughed and said the DEVIL IS A LIAR. The battle has already been fought and I was VICTORIOUS! AHAHAHA My God is a GOOD GOD!
Learn to trust that voice inside you, your inner man tells you exactly what to do and what to say, if you only listen.
