"What is love?"

Love is not a conscious action  or a spoken word.

Love is like the sweetest song that I ever heard.

Love is never bitter, hateful, or unkind.

Love is all the happy thoughts that's gentle on your mind.

Love is nothing ,or everything ,a blooming rose ,or the first day of spring.

Love is me, love is you, it's the sun ,or the morning dew.

Love is a thought about someone, or something nice you might have done.

Love is like a bedtime prayer.

Love is saying that you care.

Love is a gentle lalabye, or a tear drop in your eye.

Love is all these things and more.

Love can open any door.

"Scars from My Heart"

Burning tears from my heart leave me restless with in the darkness of the night.

They soak the pillow. My mind tumbles " Regain control, Regain control".

But I am unable to.

The clock ticks upon the far wall exhaustion seeps into my mind, into my soul, slip deeper , deeper into sleep the tears eventually stop. They wait for another day.

Lighting flashes, thunder rumbles within my dreams, tossing and turning nightmares that became reality cause me to cry out, no one hears, no ever heard that little boy I once was.

Pen and paper became my salvation, my sanity. Poetry, Gods gift to me. The years have been long although I am not quite old. I pray, someday I will get the answer, Lines on paper scars from my heart.

"Shattering the Looking Glass"

A mirror reflects the truth.

The self righteous stand before an image of superiority.

Their eyes manipulate their own self worth.

Indulging on a mission of insecurity.

Pressing deeply into the shoulders of others.

Authority obtained by means of intimidation.

The intimidators claim victory.

Calculating minds hunger for power.

Mindless calculators distort the truth.

Confusing intelligence with inferior greed paves a path of desperation.

Defending what is wrong by offending what is right.

Ignorance remains stabile for as long as its supported.

Intimidations climb to the top was swift.

Instability's descent is swifter.

Exposing deceptive builders who saw master carpenters before the looking glass.

Eventually shattering the a fraudulent foundation every step of the way. 

"The Ending of the Storm"

Majestic in its stance and stories to be told.

This  barn is more then lumber, this barn is more then old.

The earth beneath is solid, for miles it does span.

With in it grows a future, upon it stands a man.

His heart is filled with glory, but glory ends in pain.

He's built for walls with out a roof, is this shelter from the rain?

The worst is almost over, the clouds are passing by.

Now put the storm behind you, let sunshine fill your sky.

You're merely seeing black and white, you're only feeling blue.

Your rainbows deep inside you, trying to break through.

For every bolt of lighting, the trees draw back in fear.

Although they seem untouchable, they're not what they appear.

Fright is not our secret, it's weakness that we hide.

Weary and defenseless, it tears us up inside.

Now look across the acres, now focus on the view.

Your life is full of wonders, it's every part of you.

"Love Is"

Love is not a place or thing.

Love is the joy a smile can bring.

Love is Gods peace though your heart might cry.

Love is starlight in your eyes.

Love finds a way through joys and sorrows.

Love fills all yesterday's, today's, and tomorrow's.

Love lives in hearts, in souls and emotions.

In memories, in plans, in deep devotions.

Love can be strong, or gentle, or kind.

Love is a stabilizer that does not bind.

Love never pretends, or wears a disguise.

It's deeper then the oceans, higher then the sky.

Love is the Christ in you and me.

Love is truth that sets us free.

Love breaks all barriers of hate and distrust.

Loves gives us courage to do what we must.

Love is the balm that paves the way.

Love is your faith when you pray.

Love is all this and so much more.

Love is the key that unlocks any door.
