iTraded, Love!

  • iTraded Love my heart, so my soul could know the true breadth of its sublime.
  • iTraded Love my time, so my heart could devote to love my undivided attention.
  • iTraded Love my hands, so love will have the means to always take me by the heart; keep my soul now and forevermore… breathless.
  • iTraded Love my eyes, so Love could always peer keenly into the depth of my soul, take my breath to its deep places.
  • iTraded Love my thoughts, so all of my heartfelt contemplations would only be thoughts of love.
  • iTraded Love my soul, why would I ever need a soul, if love wasn’t the very reason my heart’s essence had a purpose?
  • iTraded Love my voice, so love could whisper into my soul; forever tell my heart I’m its joy.
  • iTraded Love my breath, but why not? I will just lose it again and again, the very moment it tugs my heartstrings.

Truth be told, I am who I am today because Love asked of my heart, let me be your Everything, and without hesitation; iTraded, all I am!

Love, You’re the Reason!

Love, you’re the reason, the reason within my why,  

The reason I hope, reason within my dreams,  

Reason to my rhyme, why every day I smile,  

Knowing my faith will never be hopeless.  

Love, you’re the very reason why my heart spills,  

Reason why the breadth within my soul fills.  

You’re the air within my lungs, the gasp within my heart,  

You’re the reason, my soul never waits to exhale,  

You’re my every breath.  

You are the reason, my soul knows the essence  

Of your sublime peace. Your beauty is spectacular,  

The reason my breath gets taken, stolen moments  

Leaving my soul breathless.  

Love, do they even get it? You author the depth  

To my poetic verse, the very reason to my endless muse.  

You’re the reason, my heart knows joy begets happiness,  

And I have absolutely no regret, giving you full reign  

Of my heart and soul.

Resilience: Heart of a Champion

Life can sometimes come at you hard and fierce, making your heart think it’s in the fight of its life. So many of us have learned the art of a fighter, bob and weave. Pretend our soul floats like a graceful butterfly, all while trying to avoid its sting. Only to have life knock you down, taunt you with its subtle whisper; throw in the towel, I’m the greatest. But show life it’s profoundly underestimating your resilience, you know how to hold your own… heart, and rise up with fire in your soul. Sure, life may not allow you to catch your breath, some days; breathing seems optional. When out of nowhere, with a sucker punch, life knocks you to your knees. Your heart absolutely stunned, shook; life could mistake being on your knees as a sign of weakness. That’s where you find your most resolute strength, within the arms of your savior; who says, I’m in your corner, life isn’t going to defeat you, today. Get back in the fight, and tell life, is that all you’ve got? You’ve come at me with your best, put my heart to the test, but I’m still standing. Knowing how to take a punch, and still keep moving forward; the heart of a champion. Jab, jab, stick and move, bob and weave; show life, your heart and soul is in it to win it. Even if a low blow rocks your core, don’t abandon your values. Do a gut check, and vigorously contend for your peace of mind. Sometimes, all you need is a change in your heart’s perspective to know. Your soul isn’t in it to attain a meaningless title, your heart’s quest is acquiring an undisputed character. Life exists to be a worthy opponent, but it can’t defeat a heart who has learned its simple truth; life’s past triumphs don’t determine future victories, hope reinvigorates faith to overcome. Life best fought, with a surrendered heart!

You Are, My Forevermore! 

You introduce the sunlight to the moonlight. You are a bright light, a twinkling starlight, shimmering within the twilight. You are my gravity, the weightlessness within my heart. You are the wind swaying my soul, you are my wings; making my confidence soar, like a lion my worth roar. You are the ocean, making my silent river deep. You are the depth, fathoming my deepest breadth. You are my every breath, my heart, my soul. You are the interpreter of my silence, advocate for my soul; you are the voice within me. At my best you see, at my worst you know; into me you deeply see, I need you. Intimacy alone doesn’t move you, my heart’s posture what proves you are. My well, of what my story tells, the words I write. You are the rhyme, every day; my reason, my breathless horizon. My forevermore, Love, You Are!

Awakened Love: Journey Through the Depth of a Soul

My love a deep river, my soul its fathomless ocean; my heart on a lifelong journey, traversing the beauty of its depth. For years, the breadth of my heart was content nevertheless, drowned out by the calm within my own stillness. My soul satisfied, living breathlessly within an introverted sea. Then, unbeknownst to my heart and soul, the current within my soul’s perspective shifted; my silent river was provoked, stirred deeply. Within the essence of my being, my heart encountered an endearing swell; my soul utterly swept away, by the weight of love’s proverbial dam. My soul having its moment to breathe, the water gently receded, but love already had its sway; within my heart an irreversible change. Suddenly, floodgates opened, everything inside my heart love’s continuous spill. Tell me, what’s a silent river to do, when love profoundly bares your soul, your heart left forever exposed; letting every ounce of its content seep. And now, my silence so revealing, every day my heart being revealed; love has made me its muse. Now I know, my words never struggled to become, my heart needed its moment to be; until the ocean within my soul, became irrevocably awakened. The river within my innermost flowing free, silent no more!
