Rest Easy La Luna
Rest easy la luna, Everything is under control, When your eyes have welled up, And your tears are just about to fall, Take courage and a few deep breaths, Mirror my emotions, though the world suppresses yours, Pause, while your silence speaks for you in ways that words could never, Not every thought needs finishing,…… Continue reading Rest Easy La Luna
Overcomer.
Pushed to the curb,Dragged through the mud,Thrown under the bus,To be run over.Could it be fate?Could it be karma?Is it coincidence?Or just my luck?The heart of man.The thoughts that fuel.The memories that linger.The betrayal that stings!Hands clean,Heart pure,Mind clear,Conscience Clean.We live to tell the story,Our redemption,The overcoming,Truly becoming.

SHEPERD
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want, Wanting has never been up for discussion He is Jireh!

They who you go to for comfort, They who you…… Continue reading SHEPERD
Goin’ in Circles
