I love you without protection
For you’re my protection
#Socialdistancing works well
Not for our love
We face masked against #covid19
But our #love is unmasked
And since we have the altar seal
You may kiss your groom
Oh, thank you
Friends and family for your support
Now we want #isolation
“Sweet friendships refresh the soul and awaken our hearts with joy, for good friends are like the anointing oil that yields the fragrant incense of God’s presence.”… Read more “To My Quarantined Love”
Though my night seem long
Yet will I rest in the creative work of God
The finished work on the Cross
Is the reason for my hope
For I know that soon; yes, very soon
This raging tempest will calm
And peace will be restored to mankind
Then will the sun smile on us again
But this time, even brighter and lovelier
So I say to my soul
Peace be still
For the Lord is on the throne
This is not a scripted game
And no one can dethrone Him
So again I say to my soul
Peace be still!
And rejoice in the finished work of Christ.
I may not be able to change the world
Or everyone in it
But I can change my dressings
And maybe, my address
.
I will need your voice on bedside
To bring me hope and courage
That even if I lost all
I gain you
.
And if life is brief as we were told,
Mine will be best
Summarized in you
I need you!
My mamma is a lecturer
Yet you say I have no teacher
Because you think I’m still in Junior High
Your belief is risible but I’m honoured
I don’t have the luxury for fatuous arguments
Dad says I’m the paragon of his beauty
Though you have visited the pentagon
You still don’t know how to draw a polygon
When I speak of my identity, you call it temerity
I know you’re trying to cage the lion
Maybe you didn’t check the tribe
There is a time
And a timeline
For every life event
Some create indelible memories
Some wreak life-altering catastrophes
It maybe man-made
Or beyond man’s control
In either of the events
In any of the outcomes
One thing is constant
And one thing is under man’s power:
And that is our
Choice of reaction or perception to it.
.
We may not be able to influence nature
The power to change everyone
Is not in our jurisdiction
But the determination to see
The brighter side of every experience
And the ultimate influence
Over our happiness in life
Lies in our hearts of heart
And this is more important
Than anything that might
Have happened or is happening to us.
.
I cannot downplay the effects
Of certain heartbreaking events
In our lives
I am not saying that
It will always be an easy decision
To be optimistic or find the silver-lining
It may not first option to mind
That’s why it’s the most rewarding
And so we need to be strong for us
And for our future
Because, at the end of day
We are responsible for what
Was said or done in our bodies
Not necessarily what happened to us.
My soul transcends my being
I felt an internal struggle for space
The right to possess my mind
Like I was a newly discovered element to patent
.
Tears, fears, and anguish
The battle continues,
Worse, within
The things are impossible to share
No human mind can understand
.
Now I wonder if best to be a vacuum
But am loaded with too much information
To be alone
So if you read this with no understanding
Feel no guilt
For poetry is not for all.
