What if?

What if...
What if we never met?
 What if your face i never beheld?
   What if we never held hands and...
      I never in my mouth caught your breath?

If i had never felt your embrace
  If your essence i never knew the taste
   If by your presence i was never graced
    If your smile never caused a sweet ache

What if our worlds never collided
  Our paths never crossed?
Would i have a bitter taste in my mouth
Singing songs spouting words like ‘its not for me’
Would i tell sour stories of how love got me, knocked be down and left me with a broken heart?
Would i indulge people talking about love because i know better and love doesn’t exist?
Would i fall in love everyday and when the sun sets talk about how love never lasts?
Would i have regret as my bed partner every night wishing id pulled more tricks and took more risks?

What if i never knew you or i mean i never knew love?
Would i notice the colours of flowers in bloom?
Would i sing along when i don’t know the words of the song?
Would i smile or dance or cry, would i think it matters when i did?

What if this was all there was and i was all there is
Would we look at the stars and marvel at how infinite they are,
But stay smug because we know the reasons for our love are more than that
Would we talk for hours when we had nothing to say or know the few words that need to be said when there is too much to be said
Would we remember the rainbows after rainy days or to take pictures during sunny days
Would we look at each other at our absolute worst and know deep in our hearts that nowhere in the world could there be anyone better than us

Or if we met today, tomorrow or the day after that?
Would we be have the courage do whatever it takes
Would we  be brave to risk embarrassment, rejection, failure?

What if...

...so help me god...

From me to you

I wore your eyes and walked in your shoes
In love...
From me to you

I touched your hopes and felt your dreams
In love...
From me to you

I smiled your joy and cried your tears
In love...
From me to you

See you never thought i knew
You thought i could never understand what you were going through

But see i..
 Lived for the rhythm of your heart beat
  Fuelled by the fragrance of your soul
    I read the truth written in the lines on your face

And i...
 Wasn’t always there
   Nor did i always know what to say
    But if i did no expense would have been spared

Now look at my calloused hands
Worn and torn from beating down closed doors
See how empty my eyes are?
Hope and faith long spent in my journey to you

See when they open my scroll to read my history they will see nothing
They will find my story so intertwined with yours i no longer have a right to it
The silence will rise from the pages and pain a mother giving birth
She will cry out all the frustration i felt all those lonely nights
Now if you can’t keep your words don’t pass them to me
Whisper them in the dead of the night and let walls take them for safe keeping
See it’s not my hand in your life you needed to feel but to trust the soles of your feet
That if you guided them in the right direction they would take you there (to me)
Now listen to the new born cry, you moved but you never found my arms
And suddenly i was to blame; see how thorns grow from the side of a rose?
But all im doing is telling your story
In love...
From me to you

me without you is like...

a message in a bottle fallen into indifferant hands
like... a flower that never blooms
like... a puzzle with missing pieces
like... a bird that can't fly
like... a poem that dont rhyme

you is unique
me was tailor made just for you
so me without you is like
trying to separate oil and water
like... a song never heard
like... an angel without wings
like... a direction less violent wind

tamed hearts of wild men
submissiveness in independent women
the things we do for love
me without you is
like... a perfomer without an audience
like... a city without an army
like... a mother robbed of her child

me without you is a possibility i wont consider
i will search my heart and whatever you need deliver
and if for a day i had to live without you and the sun still shined
i would cry my eyes out til i was blind
for to see that day would be the end of me
how could i live without such a vital part of me?

Love is you

i love this song. Most importantly i love the way is described like... the way i think it ought to be- Love is you by Chrissete Michele

 What's your definition of it?


How does it make you feel?

Tell me what you say that truly makes it real

Kings and Queens, Philosophers have tried so hard to find

Tell me what it means to you dear, nevermind



Love is kind when the world is cold

Love stays strong when the fight gets old

Love's a shoulder to lean on

Love is you

Love's like the water when the well runs dry

Quench my thirst, keep me alive

Just need one sip baby

Love is you

Love is you, love is you,

Love is you, love is you



Is it possible, there is a kiss that's so divine

Or am I just a fool, is it all in my mind?

Is there something chemical

A scientist might say

Well love must be a drug

To make me feel this way



Cause love's my permission to be who I am

No inhibitions cause you understand

Freedom to breathe oh baby

Love is you

Love's like a kiss when the sun goes down

Holds me tight when no one's around

Love's what I want to hold on to

Love is you



Love is you, Love is you, Love is you,

Love is you, Love is you,

Love is you, Love is you,



Love is kind, it makes me stronger

I don't have to look no longer

You're the one I cling to

Love is you

When the chips are down

Love will stick around

I'm so glad I found

Love is you



As much as I've tried to clarify

Love's quite simple, he's just my guy

Perfect definition

Love is you

Love is you, love is you

Love is you... is you...
 
 
 
Love is my permission to be who i am. That is my favourite part. Nothing to do with tolerance, i dot know about acceptance. Love not only works around imperfections but with patience it will obliterate them...
 
...so help me God...

Phenomenal Woman

I am phenomenal woman
 i am confidant and at peace with myself
  for in Him there is not a spirit of confusion, timidity or fear but a spirit of love, power and self-discipline

I am phenomenal woman
 i do not let worry consume me
  for even as the birds do not worry about what they will eat tomorrow, I put my trust in Him


I am phenomenal woman
  I reap rewards because of my abilities not my charm
   For beauty is fleeting but a woman who praises the Lord she shall be praised

I am phenomenal woman
 I give respect where respect is due
  For He says if anyone is above you in age or authority it is your duty to do so

I am phenomenal woman
 I command respect
  For His promise is me as the head and not the tail

I am phenomenal….

   So help me God

Words

Sticks and stones can break a body, but words can destroy a soul..

So i have always wondered what makes us differant? and last Sunday's service answered that question
Its words
Even the bible says the tongue is very powerful, it can ignite flames that can take down a whole forest.
Take the forest as your destiny, your greater purpose...
Every word you have heard, read and said moved you closer or further away from your destiny.

I know one would say think positive, do not let what people have said or say about you define you...
But there is a time in our lives where we are all innocence... nothing but molding clay
And every word spoken over us whips us into shape
Consider the time you have called someone fool or useless
As everyone tries to find their identity if a word is spoken over them that is what they will probably become

So i want to take this blogortunity to encourage you to please mind the names you call each other
Even the bible says whatever you confess with your mouth on earth, so it shall be in heaven
Dont let your words control you or imprison your neighbour
Word!

i will post a poem entitled words later

...so help me God...
