Wear It Well!

Your heart on your sleeve, the shirt off your back; is it just for show, or a true display of love? Every breath that makes us live, every day that we get to see; breathe deeply, tomorrow is not promised. The treasures of life, are not the treasures we accumulate; not the treasures we seek, the moments we treasure. Letting your heart be clothed in righteousness, not a cliche; but a choice, wear it well!

Helping a tripped up mind, to pick up the brokenness; with an outstretched heart. Giving a weary soul, a heart to rest their burdens. Helping someone carry their heavy heart, with an uplifting spirit; truly worth more than its weight in gold. Offering someone who has fallen, a word of hope; to help them get through in the race. It’s not about how you start, but where you finish!

When a heart feels like it’s twisting in the wind, and its life that seems to be blowing the mind. Let your love be an anchor, let a uneasy heart; hold on to the strength of your love. We all have the ability to care, but the question is; do you dare, to always be there? For absolutely no rhyme or reason, other than you truly care? Life is short, I know I will; let‘s all live it well. Put on true compassion, show off what you truly have inside. When it comes to real love; Wear It Well!

I Believe!

I believe in dreams, I believe in miracles; I believe in love. I believe in finding, I believe in wanting, I believe in needing; I believe having, means needing you. I believe in ups, I believe in downs; I believe the ups outweigh the downs. I believe that things will go sideways, I believe in staying always; I believe in staying beside you. I believe in the first moment, I believe in that first day; my heart fell in love; forever with you!

I don’t need to believe in fairy tales, I don’t believe you get very far with wishful thinking. I believe in hard work and dedication, to help get a heart where it needs to be. I believe in an encounter, I believe in a presence; I believe in a touch. I believe in the impossible, I believe in the inevitable; Que Sera Sera. I believe still to this day, it was meant to be. I believed it wouldn’t be perfect, but I believed it would be always; I believed it would be forever. I believe in our love, you and me forever; I Believe!

Listen To My Heart!

Listen to my heart, how does it truly sound? Does it sound pleasing, or does this question sound; like it’s intended to please my own heart? Would it please You, if I said it still beats for You profusely; or would You just think, that it’s a heart still beating out of control?

Listen to my heart, do you believe; it’s trying to be in step with your heart? 123, 123, I have mastered the steps. But if I occasionally stumbled, would you think my love; is still a bit blind? Yes, I’ve messed up a time or two; closer to more times than I can count. Listen to my heart, at times I may have lost the rhythm; but never the beat. Your love is within every beat, within the very love that moves my heart!

Listen to my heart, the heart might only be the fifth largest organ in the body; but my heart is my voice. My heart has a voice, but it’s Your love; that gives it the strength, to stand the test of life. I have the power to choose, the choice has always been one and forever the same; letting Your love be the voice within. My heart has been loud, but the question is; has it been clear?

Listen to my heart, I will forever take hold of Your love; for You definitely have a forever hold of my soul. My heart gets to love You, without a single doubt; the best thing my heart will ever get to do. So when it seems the focus is not your heart, whenever it seems my words have left so much unsaid. Sometimes I’m just absolutely lost for words, so I try to let my heart be the one; to express the words within. Whenever you need to hear the love, whenever you need to feel the passion; listen to my heart!

Song Inspired; Lady!

Lady, has my heart been your knight in shining armor? Did I ever make you wonder, if my heart would always fight for your honor? Does my heart truly shine, or just an armor; your love is still trying to penetrate? It’s taken years for you to truly trust, my love. I promise to take a lifetime, to prove that you can forever trust my heart. Sweet woman, let me be perfectly clear; your love has helped to make me. Helped to shape me, into the man I am today; your love has helped to make me whole. I’m grateful; I truly am, Lady!

My love, there’s so many ways, so many ways that your love has touched my heart. If I haven’t said it enough; “I Love You; forever, I do.” If you ever need to be held, my arms are always open. Your love will forever be held, within my heart; the endless embrace. If you were to ever leave me, I would truly be the fool; the foolish heart to ever let go. You’re a blessing, a true blessing from above; you’re the love promised. The day when the Father whispered into my heart, that He had for me a love; straight from His heart. Every morning when I rise, I don’t miss an opportunity; to kiss upon love. Whisper into your heart, just to let you know; you’re still my special Lady!

My heart would truly experience loss, so much loss without your love. Lady, just so you know; I would rather get lost in your eyes, found in your heart. In my eyes, I see no other love. In my heart and soul, You and God. There could never be anyone else, my heart is already full. Your love is my love, my love is your love; God’s love, our love. This three strand cord, the love that cannot be broken. I need your love beside me, close to my heart. Where it was meant to be, where I will forever need it to be. The love of a strong woman, the love I need in my life; you, sweet Lady!

The song Lady, was written by Lionel Richie. It was first released, and sang by Lionel in 1998; but made famous when Kenny Rogers released his version in 2001 (my favorite rendition).

With Valentine’s Day approaching, and this being song Inspired Friday. Today’s post is dedicated to my special lady, this marks our 32nd valentines together. I also hope all the wonderful ladies reading, gleaned something for your own hearts? I don’t usually post every day, but I am considering; adding a small Tuesday and Thursday post for next week only. I hope everyone enjoyed today’s post, have a wonderful weekend!

Restrain!

A flood was coming, my heart seemed ready; but ready meant expecting, that the water was restrained. I couldn’t stop it, a tidal wave of emotions; was about to crash against my heart, so I shut the door. But where could my heart truly hide, my soul wasn’t yet ready; to be swept away. A tsunami like emotion, wanted to flood my soul. My heart, tried to satisfy the overwhelming feelings; with just a peep through the window of my soul. But the bottled up emotions, the dam; unrestrained!

There was a resistance, my heart wouldn’t let go of my soul. My heart thought it was all under control, trying to keep my soul in check; but it could not restrain, being overwhelmed. My heart couldn’t hold back, could no longer suppress; the struggle, could not contain. The water burst through the weakened barrier; with it, came the rain. My soul was drenched, my heart poured out. My heartstrings, tethered to a love; the rain, a display of my affection. So much love filled my soul, but it was exactly what my heart needed; to help ease the rain, until the water receded!

Through all the struggles, this one thing my soul has always known. My heart, Your love; forever meant to be. The more of Your love that floods, the more of You my heart is still left wanting. My heart is captivated, so much in love; my soul will never get enough of Your love. Overwhelmed by just the thought; heart and soul. So the rest of my days, will be spent in pursuit; I’m after Your heart. The rains came, my heart swept away; my soul flooded, with an overwhelming love. A heart now left forever submerged, but no longer, Restrained!

The Spotlight!

Light, camera, action. Shine Your love, put my heart in the spotlight. I’m not scared of the spotlight, I’m not scared of Your light. Turn on the lights, I will step in front of the camera; let me put Your love on display. It’s truly time for action, it’s time for my heart; to put Your love in the spotlight. The strength of Your love, shines on me when I’m at my weakest. Shimmers within my heart, Your love lights up my soul. My heart truly must be, Your spotlight!

My only desire; to be a true representation, of Your love. A beautiful portrayal, a true mosaic; a wonderful characterization of Your heart. Your love makes my heart shine, do You see it brighter than all the stars in the sky? If not, I will endeavor to be more up front with my heart. Try to make every moment personal, forever center my love; right in the middle of Your heart. Just so the light within, will be truly the brightest light; a spotlight to demonstrate Your love!

I will no longer hide my heart, Your love forever needs to be in the spotlight. May this heart of mine, truly showcase the greatness. Your love is meant to be in the spotlight; up front and center. So therefore move my heart, until it’s my ego that’s forever moved; out of the way. Others will see my heart, I try to make sure they see; Your love is on display. The spotlight; belongs to You, and You alone!

Can We Meet Again?

I don’t want to go back to the place where it all began, it‘s not the place that’s worth remembering; but a moment I will never forget. I was young, very much in love. But still had so much to learn, about being forever in love; in the true sense of the word.

My love was strong, but now stronger than ever. I will meet You where You are, right where You’ve always been. Not to reminisce about yesterday, won’t say maybe tomorrow; today is all I have, can we meet again!

Can we rendezvous, in our secret place; my heart, all I have to bring. O.C.D will not control the narrative, but I still hope; to truly leave nothing unsaid, can we meet? I will do my best to listen, I just want to hear Your heart; what does Your love have to say? I will wait right here, be still and know; even if it means forever, let forever be the place. Your heart is worth the wait, Your love is all I need. Being close to Your heart, the only desire; can You meet me again!

I need You to meet me here, all I want; all You are, will You meet me here? I will walk through the valley, fight pass all the shadows. I’m no longer a slave to fear; fear of the unknown, is not knowing Your heart. Your love is what I run to, my heart needs to go through the valley; to show the test of true faith. Your love has never failed to meet me, right in the middle of the valley; I realized without a shadow of a doubt. I can’t remember a moment, can’t even recall a second; that You’ve ever forsaken to meet. So I promise, to never forsake Your love; can we meet, again!

The place where my soul was forever moved, the place where our love is strengthened; the place where the passion, truly comes alive. Here I am, please come. I promise my love will be devoted, and my heart; forever Yours! Every day these dry bones are awakened, but every day; there’s still a thirst, Your love is what makes them not become brittle. You never disappoint, whenever I have a need; Your love never fails to meet, You’re always on time. Can we meet again, You know the place; it’s within my heart!

The Whether!

Before I call, before I ever shed a single tear; my heart already knows, Your love is the answer. The shelter, the hiding place. Some days the thunder roars, the days collide. It’s a true challenge, trying to outrun the storms; trying to withstand the tidal wave, crashing against my heart. With every step forward, the wind beats against my faith; but the anchor holds. But it’s the rain, that sometimes won’t stop falling; from my eyes. But there’s a ray, a light; hope. The sun will shine again, after every downpour; after the rain!

The whether WILL subside, raise your hope; hold on to your faith, that the anchor will forever hold. Forever trust, that your heart is still covered; under the canopy. Some days the world can be bitterly cold. The coldness has always been there, but the bitterness; can leave a lasting chill, within your bones. Whether you believe, or whether you have doubts; that the warmth will some day return? The Son will surely return, let your light shine; warm the world with your light. Keep your hope raised, never let go of your faith; forever trust. Get swept up within a love, fierce like a hurricane. It will relentlessly seek you out, forever chase after your heart. Don’t get it twisted, the overwhelming gentleness; what your heart won’t be able to escape!

When you come face to face, let the love set your soul free; let it take your heart higher; where a heart learns how to soar. Even though the whether of doubts still lingers, through it all; it will never let you fall, to pieces. Whether or not you believe, Inquire about the love; investigate the gentle stories about the hurricane. Your heart will truly be free, to forever embrace the truth. Say goodbye to the thunder, to the storms; to the wind that beats. To the crashing tidal waves, to the rain that won’t stop falling; let peace be the stillness. Be no longer undecided with your heart, choose to forever remember. When it comes to the Weather, don’t let it become the element; manifesting within your heart!

Silent River!

Silent, the quietness underneath, the deepness within; the silent river. The calmness beneath, the stillness within; the depth being measured. Be seen and not heard, the art of not making a sound; my heart was skilled within the art. Strength but yet silent, movement, but yet not heard. Strong, silent; but yet the type that runs deep, a silent river!

Many rivers, many years; many moons ago; since my heart encountered an ocean. Love, love was the sight, but at first; the feeling was what gave sight, to a love with unfathomable depth. So the river within set course, the destination; deeper. A heart once introverted, now expressive. A river once silent, now flow within an ocean; a heart on a journey to find. The boldness, the confident; found within the true depth. Ocean, Your heavenly presence; moves this once silent river!

The height, the depth, the length, the breadth of this ocean; deeper than my soul can see, but calling me deeper. A silent river, was never meant to be my destiny. The hush was the rush, the silence turned into a presence; a love moving within every breath of my heart. Rushing into the depth of the innermost, taking my soul deeper. Gasping to give every breath, wanting to forever be overwhelmed; from a love that now floods my soul. The love that forever broke the silence, within a once silent river!

The perfect storm, when a silent river; collided with a gentle ocean. A heart led by the still waters; a river runs through the silence. It’s the purpose, that gives a silent river resilience; true power, to affect change. Within the heart of the river, with nothing now left unsaid. Speechless, what has now become; the love deep within. A love that flows, a river that now takes moments of silence; to say a silent prayer, within the waves of glory. What is love, if a heart cannot describe; what it truly means? I am strong, I am silent, I am the river; with a purpose. To be submerged, deep within an ocean!

Do They Get It?

If You were to ever hide, my heart would move heaven and earth; to seek is to find. Wherever Your love goes, my heart will forever follow; relentlessly chase after Your love. Sometimes I’m absolutely beside myself, to know how ridiculously Your love wants to be a part of my heart. Do they even get it, they probably don’t yet get; what my heart’s been trying say? Maybe it’s beyond a normal comprehension, maybe no one else should truly ever get it; what this love truly means to me. I stopped a long time ago, chasing after things; I just want to chase after Your heart!

Writing about this love, has become the passion; that flows deep within. My heart can speak about this love, my soul can express the depth. But every day I realize, this love is not just my air; but my every breath. From the moment I rise, to the very moment I lay me down to sleep; I need this love to breathe. My affections is for You, Your love is not a figment of my dreams; but a presence, within the depth of my soul. I want to know You, not only in text, not just as a feeling; that passes through my heart like the wind. But feel Your love as it hovers, throughout the innermost parts of my soul; can anyone ever get that?

We’ve been through so much, this life, this journey, this heart; this love, didn’t get like this overnight. This love to some might seem crazy, it’s been an adventure; discovering the true depth of Your heart. My whole life, I‘ve never had a need for alcohol or drugs. Your love is my rush, the thrill that would sustain my heart; for a thousand lifetimes, do they get it? Your love is now, and will forever be; the only desire, my heart will ever need. A love that has captured, truly inspires. Even the ripples, overwhelms my heart and soul; within Your ocean of love, do they get it? Simply put, You wanted a relationship; but my heart, wanted a love affair!

My heart is captivated, but my soul says; beyond captivating. A heart forever captured, a soul free; but wrapped up, tied up, tangled up. It’s not about freeing the mind, but the freedom within my soul; that truly makes my heart free, to be unapologetic about the love within. I hope, that hearts who are on the similar journey, can truly get it? To have a heart that’s not just chasing, but eagerly pursuing. As for me and my heart, I’m going to spend the rest of my days; tiredly chasing after Your heart. Your love was the whisper; that broke through the silence, within my heart. A soul that now writes a love story, about this poetic love!
