A Place Of Rest

A Psalm of Chrislove 
The Son of Grace 
When heart fainted after him
I need for myself a place of rest 

A place where my heart is stayed

In my moment of trials and disappointments 

In my moment of loss and hopelessness

I need for myself a place of rest 

A place where I can call home

A place where my weaknesses 

Will be exchanged for strengths

A place where my weary soul 

Shall find peace and rest.
My heart is stayed on you, Lord!

In you rest my helpless heart

Preserve my soul from hell

Fill my heart with your wisdom 

Endow me with special gifts

Strengthen my faith

Enlarge my heart in love 

Revive my prayer life

Cleanse my life from every form of pride

Let me prosper and flourish in your ways.
Help me function in your abilities 

Let my life honour and glorify you always

Fill my mouth with your testimonies 

My lips with songs of thanksgiving 

My soul with praise and worship

And my feet with dancing

And my household with hymns of rejoicing 

Let the gentiles behold your splendor 

Upon me and come to magnify your name 

Let others publicize your goodness in my life.

I can give you credits for my success

But I owned all the masters to my failures.

I used to be a seed of Adam

But now I sow seeds on the soils of Adam

I guess you know the second Adam

And that’s no coincidence

Someone feels like I’m trying to rhyme

I’m sorry beloved!

My flow got no rhythms

Because you’re off beat.

Poets Never Die

Oh how sad it is 

To see you leave

Gone with the wind 

You followed the road 

All runners go

Ashes to ashes

Your body return to dust

But

It’s only sad to say it’s sad

Yes, they bury your body

And yes, people gather to say

‘May your soul rest in peace’

But they did not bury you

For your soul is in your work

Your work is with and within us

Though death do us part

Your words

And life live forever

Cause

Poets never die

So 

Long live the Legend

Long live #ToniMorrison

Love is an Umbrella

‪Love is an umbrella ‬

‪It covers you‬

‪Both in the rainy days ‬

‪And during sunshine ‬

‪Though umbrella can be red‬

‪Love covering is pure‬

‪And though some umbrellas‬

‪Cannot withstand storms‬

‪Love is inherently storm-resistant‬

‪So when knocked down‬

‪Never destroyed‬

But rather, strengthens the foundation

‪Cause ‘we are built for this!’‬

A Prisoner of Love

Ticking clock, hastening age, dashing dreams

Malnourished, thirsty and starving

Love deficient, hopeless faith, fleeting life

A dying heart needing CPR, no paramedics.

.

Never been taught what love’s like, never imagined I could love

Thought love is only in Hollywood

But if love is Hollywood, we are forever doomed to be selfish

Love was long dead, forgotten, and now abstract.

.

Meeting you made me a doctor of Love

A dying patient becoming a doctor?

Your love makes my heart functional

Your love changes everything.

.

I lost everything just to gain patience

A covering for the rainy days

Raincoat not just an umbrella that covers part

My light in my dark hours.

.

Every ticking clock ignites the flame of unfeignedly boundless love

The thought of you polishes the rough edges of my limbic system

Your love is the experience of lifetime

Eternity in perspective.

.

A love from the heart not books

A love that last not like last

A love on giving, but first the heart

A love that speaks very loud to the deaf even without words.

.

I am now a prisoner of love

A prisoner with no one to bail

Chained to your lotus blossoming tender-kindness

Guarded by your dove-charmed breastplate, I’m forever secured and yours!
