This Lack of Trust

this lack of trust,
from years of hurt and abuse
i try to let it go
but it's just no use
i get so confused
everything seems like lies
and not being able to trust
is one thing i despise.

this lack of trust
keeps me up all night
wondering, thinking..
should I give up or fight?
i want to believe
all the words that you say
i want to have faith
but it's been taken away.

this lack of trust,
i know it's upsetting,
but it's a direct result
of the pain I keep getting
when i finally give in
allow myself to believe
i get stabbed and punished
and brought to my knees

this lack of trust,
oh please be patient
because im definitly a risk
that needs to be taken
please give me your time
to build up my trust
because when it happens
we'll make a beautiful us.

Remember This Lack of Conscience - 'For Maya Angelou'.

When time goes past and dithers not
One sees the blame that gathers moss
To feel akin with woe as one
I'll forgive myself and you to soldier on

Remember this lack of conscience when we meet
I was violated, raped and beaten within to provide a treat

Remember this lack of conscience when I get out
To see through with vision all I espy

Remember this lack of conscience which will know no bounds
To hideously transform love profound

Remember this lack of conscience when I am free
You will lose and you know me

Remember this lack conscience less you forget
That freedom is precious and not a threat

Remember this lack of conscience when the bars are bent
I will slip out into the depths of crass to vent

Remember this lack of conscience to come
The Devil has a new spawn and drum

Remember this lack of conscience gathering
To prove nothing but give a battering

Remember this lack of conscience wild
It has no remorse just like a child

Remember this lack of conscience like the Hawk
Which draws blood, looks on and gawks

Remember this lack of conscience with the Demon within
It's a Golem to clear the the Evil and get even

Remember this lack of conscience when you renege
The death of love can be ones grave

Remember this lack of conscience and tremor not
No fruit you bear or shall ever to care

Remember this lack of conscience that prevails
The trial is over and you have failed

Remember this lack of conscience and grow
To a woman that a man can know

Remember this lack of conscience that forgave
and now with Love sends you away


For Maya Angelou - ' Remember This Lack of Conscience'.

We Who....

we who would seek a home,
find our home with the homeless.
we who seek truth,
know the tree to be a tree!
we who seek liberty,
throw all that we own onto the fire.
we who seek love,
feed the hungry.
we who seek companionship,
simply become dialogue...
we who would seek god,
well, all of the above.
we who seek tomorrow,
give today to a stranger...
and wrap his feet up
with our dreams!

Last Letter to his Wife

I am dead because I lack desire,
I lack desire because I think I possess.
I think I possess because I do not try to give.
In trying to give, you see that you have nothing;
Seeing that you have nothing, you try to give of yourself;
Trying to give of yourself, you see that you are nothing:
Seeing that you are nothing, you desire to become;
In desiring to become, you begin to live.

A Little

I give a little
You ask a lot
I give a little
You want all I got
I give a little
You want my best
I give a little
You request the rest
I give a little
You demand of me more
I give a little
You keep me empty and poor
I give a little
You say I lack all that you need
I give you all that I have
But it still falls short of your greed.
'closing thought'
Some people will never have all they desire
For their greed shall consume them like flames of a fire

Minute Of Decay

There's not much left to love
Too tired today to hate
I feel the empty
I feel the minute of decay
I'm on my way down now, I'd like to take
You with me
I'm on my way down
I'm on my way down now, I'd like take
You with me
I'm on my way down
The minute that it's born
It begins to die
I'd love to just give in,
I've been to black and back
I've whited out my name
A lack of pain, a lack of hope
A lack of anything to say
Tehre is no cure for what is killing me
I'm on my way down
I've looked ahead and saw a
World that's dead
I guess that I am too
(Chorus)
I'm on my way down, I'd like to take
You with me

Moses stood on the red sea shore
Gotta batten down the waves with a 2 by 4

Stand on the rock where moses stood

See eloise gonna line em track

All them disciples dead and gone

See eloise gonna line em track

Spreading The Cure

My lack of patience,
Caused another's unkindness.
I am impatient.
I am not love.
My unkindness,
From another's impatience.
I am unkind.
I am not love.
I want what you have.
I am jealous.
I am not love.
I brag about what you do not have.
I am rude and boastful.
I am not love.
I must have my own way.
I am demanding.
I am not love.
I am bothered by your mistakes.
I am irritable.
I am not love.
My resentments keep record.
I am resentful.
I am not love.
Others have wronged me, as a result, I have wronged them.
I rejoice in the injustice.
I am revenge.
I am not love.
I am what I am, and not, what I am not.
I so desperately seek, what I am not.
It's not about give and take.
It is about give and give.
Taking is stealing.
Am I a thief of hearts?
It is about accepting what is shared.
Mercy and grace for those that have not.
They have the sickness.
I hold the cure.
No more ill will.
Just to love well.
That is how we spread the cure.

Lack of respect

Respect? Yes respect
Lack of respect
Lend us in hot oil
And now we are fried like vianas
Because we lack respect
Yes respect

Respect? Yes respect
Lead us to put our feet inside the packet
And look now
We have fallen so hard in the ground
Because we lack respect

We had foolish remarks
Asked personal question
And proved to the world how jealous we are
Because we lack respect
We questioned facilitator than scenario
How? Because we lack respect for our colloquies

Because we mesmerize twaddle
We are futile

Never Say Die

You look so sad - like you lost your only friend
Dont feel so bad - you can always try again
So dont hide, go seek, dont let the grass grow
Under your feet
Get out, get up, get on, get moving out
Dont surrender - dont give up the fight
You give a little bit more
If you want her back - its a full attack
You give a little bit more
And if you wanna win you dont give in you
Give a little bit more
When you think youre through what you gotta do is
Give a little bit more
She said goodbye
So tell yourself thats all
(thats all, shes gone)
But your hands aint tied
Why you make yourself so small (dont think so small)
So dont hide - go seek - dont let the grass grow
Under your feet
Get out - get up - get on - get moving out
Dont surrender - dont give up the fight
You give a little bit more
If you want her back - its a full attack
You give a little bit more
And if you wanna win you dont give in
Give a little bit more
When you think youre through what you gotta do you
Give a little bit more
Dont give up the fight - you gotta keep on
Going with all you might
Try hard dont stop - gotta keep on giving it
All you got
Never give up - never give up - never say die
Believe in, can reach the top
Gotta give it a shot dont say no gotta
Get in the flow
So dont hide go seek
Dont runaway - get back on your feet
Get out - get up - get on - get moving out
Dont surrender - dont give up the fight
You give a little bit more
If you want her back - its a full attack
You give a little bit more
And if you wanna win you dont give in
Give a little bit more
When you think youre through what you gotta do
Give a little bit more

She Who Lacks His Touch

She who lacks his touch
She with lack of trust
Only to remain in dust

She who wants no luck
What she would give for lust
She with lack of trust

Her eyes have bled with time
Her life not to remain in line
What she would give for lust
She who lacks his trust

Her image has began to change
Her reflection is not the same
Her grip tightens on the brush
She with lack of trust

This anger can not remain
Something has to change
She who lacks his trust
What she will do for lust

The knife once used for peeling
Now lay under her pillow
Her presence will now be felt
She who lacks his trust

The time has come
The final dance begun
She gets his final touch
What she has done for lust

To Seek Your Face

i will rise up early and seek your face
i will bless your name and give you praise
you have been my help in time of need
the love you give i will plant this seed

to seek your face, to hear your voice
forever grateful i am, it's my choice
with a thankful heart, i give you praise
at the foot of the cross, your special place

cleanse my heart, my all in all
hear my cry, lift me up when i fall
you are my saving grace
and with a thankful heart, i give praise

Seek

Seek and you will find
the glory of the divine,
seek and you shall see
the world and all its glory,
seek and you will feel
love’s arrow pierce your heart.
Seek and whatever you seek
will one day be yours,
but you must want it enough
to seek it out and find
the hidden dreams
that lay within your mind.

The march of love

Love marches are not alike.
Who ambles to love withal?
With widows that lack sanction.
Who doeth love trot withal?
With youths that lack fear.
Who gallops it withal?
With paramours that lack patience.
Who stay love still withal?
With the old that lack response.

Saddened By The Lack Of It

Saddened by the lack of it.
Those without a reflective consciousness.
Those who elect to blindly have their way.
Without consulting with others.
Those who care less what others say.

Saddened by the lack of it.
Those who decide,
Only their opinions are legit.
Those who can not admit,
Their own limitations.

Saddened by the lack of it.
Those who express no empathy.
Or remorse shown to exist.
Those who sit in the midst of accusations.
Baiting and creating all aspects of conflict.

Saddened by the lack of their sense of humanity.
Yes!
We all should be saddened by this foolishness.
Since nothing that lives can afford this luxury.
