A sample from Book 9
Traces in Forgive
she felt its trace
sweet word's lace
soft-spoken based
deep inside-
yes...she felt its trace
sneaking up inside
like a burning desire
give it
let it live
as her sixth sense
stood the fence
no, no, no
it's all a show
face after face
encountering
same's constant date
lies, deception, betray
nothing real
stands behind
words in say
she bows her head
thinking of words said
why this careless play
why not just go away
then tears cry
not for self–
as in her bed
she lies
–but for souls
behind her tries
–their coming day
served on a self-made
imagined silver-lined tray
karma
its coming arena
choices in free-will
consequences-
already sealed
in her bowed stance
she dances her dance
–for them
solemn in pray
nothing more to say
for truth
all they had to do–
say it
-her total
I forgive you
washing it
all away
now...just in self
to give
forgive
without them ever knowing
–her never willing
in showing
her forever hiding
her deepness
in always loving
as they live
in the continue of dying
as she moves
forward in free
even if she meets
the Lord first
in her bowed stance
knowing truth
they'll still be in fool
drooling in thirst
seeking free
without ever
having the joy of it
in see
(March 20, 2016)—I think my next piece will be about the damn lie. What is so damn hard about just saying the truth? It breaks my heart to trust, then hear the lie. For what? What purpose does it serve? Why shatter someone’s trust and belief in you because you couldn’t face your own truth? That makes no sense to me. None.
Call me gullible. I don’t care. A lie is a lie. Maybe, that is why God made it one of the Ten Commandments! The lie destroys for absolutely no reason at all! I’d rather tell the truth. It’s easier. So what, someone will get mad at me. They’ll eventually get over it, then it’ll be done with. I won’t have to come up with something else because the truth is just that—the truth. It doesn’t change.
Why lie? That’s just a coward’s way. You can be the best lover, the best kisser, the richest guy…I catch the lie and you’re dirt in my eyes. Dirt. You’d have to do a hell of a lot to change that around. I guess…an act of God. I know that sounds like judgment. It’s not really. It’s just how my heart works. Damn, it’s hard for God to forgive a lie. Yes, He eventually does once you do your penitence and ask Him.
So…giving someone trust takes a lot from me after what I’ve been through. To encounter the lie…well…no need to expand. Don’t lie. It’s that simple. You know I’m going to say it like it is. There you go!
