Breath



I'm building a church of words & every verse is a spiritual rebirth/


Each verb inspired by God creates a piece of Heaven here on earth/

This is a love song that belongs to the Spirit/

I might type the lyrics but I gave Him the wheel to steer it/

No more fear in sight as these insights take flight/

My life used to be a bowl of plight/

Each day swallowing bite after bite/

But then the blessed night fell when Gods bright Light extinguished my dark hell/

Now I love kickin back watching God weave His will in my life/

As long as I detach from pride & ego He instills magic & insight/

I see to the habit of allowing Him to establish these seeds of Light/

He cleared the weeds from sight & now I don't wanna miss even one intricacy of His might/

He has placed the taste of love on my breath/

I have to use these words to test its depths/

Remember all those years spent scared to death?/

Wondering if she’d ever even show up for the test?/

Well, she’s arrived to bless my doorstep & I feel like an old war vet who can’t rest because her image infests every crevice & depth of my soul’s nest/

Never would have guessed yesterday would be filled with coffee & chess only to find she infects my today like a surprise guest I’ve been expecting since before I knew how to forget/

We've aligned our breath/

Become partners in this timed test/

Designed to become one flesh/

Our minds are intertwined by His holy habits as we stitch this divine love which is tighter knit than the finest of fabric/

I used to think my soul's labryinth was too elaborate to penetrate but her eyes & smile collaborate to navigate every space, crevice & secret escape buried in my heart's landscape/

When I was young I liked to have fun & dabble but I never really let a female share my saddle/

Now I'm over & done trying to mingle & babble/

I've decided if life were a game of scrabble she'd be the word that won every single battle/
