Desiring Nobility

The clock is ticking
counting the minutes
taking me later into the early morning
my mind full of thoughts
of feeling my life not fully lived
desiring much more than I ever have
to know true spiritual discipline
to know the dance that seems to be locked in my limbs
to know my truth
to see my peace
to love myself unconditionally
to be the woman that God created me to be
the woman my soul aspires to
I am sleepless in my desires to be more noble

Thru Wid Lyin'

ask me questions
cuz i won't talk you no lies.
i'm leavin' lyin' behind me
like a old coat tha jus don't fit.
tired i am of waitin' for the lies to breath like truth.
i'm gon dance like the wind on top a water.
i gotta ask Him-
got tah ask Him
to keep me in His Eye.
i know it ain't right tah ask
but i gotta to be free.
free ain't bout runnin' tha streets
free ain't bout speakin' wid no heart
free is gettin' God's truth
through God's Word.
if you got a beef with that
than take it up wid Him
cuz i don't wanta hear it.
like i said
ask me questions
an i talk you no lies.

Stream of Conciousness

there is no place
to house me
this fluid
soul
that pulsates
in my body
around
my body
there is a shore
an anchoring place
will i get there
to rest
do i get rest
no
find the wind
search the night sky
follow the star
be at peace
be at peace
God wants what He wants
i am to follow
pray on knees
beg for perception
cry tears of repentance
fight the desire
to believe i am less
so i can listen
to God's Will
there is no place
to house this
fluid soul.
