I hope you truly don’t mind if I pour out my love upon Your heart? You surely must know that Your love is like gas on my fire? Your love is the spark, that forever lights my heart. So ignite my soul, until the fire of Your love burns deep within. Fuel my heart with Your love, until it burns out of control; let it burn forever, within my soul.
To most people, this poem might seem a bit self serving; this is absolutely just that. I need Your love, to be what completely fills my heart. So don’t ever stop, my heart could never ever get enough of Your love. What else can my heart say; Your love is the high octane fuel, that powers my soul. Sure, it might seem as if I’m pouring it on extra thick? But it’s a thin line between love and hate. So I would love, if You could fill me up with every bit of Your love. I would hate, for You to ever stop; just let it overflow!
Fill me up fill me up. Your love is like water, for my ever thirsty soul. Strike a match, let the fire within my heart consume my very soul. Let the fire of Your love seep out of my very pores; until it can be felt, by anyone that comes within ten thousand feet from my heart. I don’t even care, it they too catch on fire. Let Your love within my soul, be what sets their hearts ablaze; let love not be just a flickering flame!
Let my soul burn until my heart is ashes; six feet down, and Your love becomes the only recognizable part of my soul. My heart is the house, but Your love is the fire that burns within. The edges of my heart can feel the flames. Fan the flames, let Your love burn; until it’s felt, within the very depth of my soul!
Life, can sometimes come at you hard; that you think you’re in a fight, a fight for your life. I learned at an early age, how to bob and weave pretty good. Float like a butterfly, no; I wasn’t the greatest, but I knew how to hold my own… heart. Life just wouldn’t allow me to catch my breath, so I just held it all in; breathing seemed to be optional. But life still decided to hit me with a sucker punch; it knocked me to One knee. I was absolutely stunned; life should have known, I wasn’t about to stay down. So I gathered up my pride, stuck it back in my heart and said; life, is that all you have… to offer?
So I got off my knee, got back in the fight; only to continue with the same bobbing and weaving routine. I wasn’t a sucker. Yeah, I said it… to myself. I knew how to take a punch, sometimes; it was like I was fighting my own heart. My bout with life got intense, this went on for fifteen… years. Sure, I got in my share of jabs; just to show life that my heart was in it to win it. But in the fifteenth… year, the hand of life shifted; my heart. It rocked me to my core, it made me do a serious gut check. Life was tough, a formidable opponent for sure. Life hit me with a blow; it brought me face to face with a Cross!
The encounter sent me to both my knees, so this time I prayed; for mercy. Oh Lord, my heart felt it; the shift. I could have avoided the Cross, but it was time to change my approach to life. I thought this time it would be the ten count, but it wasn’t counted as a knockdown. Just a moment to give my heart a new perspective, on life. My heart finally realized that we can’t go toe to toe with life, without the Faith to believe; that we can conquer life’s battles. Life is a contact sport, a fight; my heart was being prepared to face a Champion. Undisputed has been His title, amazing is the character. Just being in the presence; my heart knew that this is the Greatest!
Life’s objective, is not to win all the fights, but to keep us so distracted; that we don’t even realize our true potential. Life, you are truly a worthy opponent, but I’ve learned within my heart this simple truth. That it’s not about how hard life hits; but how hard you can get hit, and still keep moving forward. Faith, hope, love; strengths, within the right character to endure. Life is a fight, just don’t let the past; be what determines your future. Having the spirit that fights, that’s the start; wisdom is the crucial element. To know that life is best fought, with a surrendered heart!
Whenever the night tries to hold on to my soul. My heart awakens within the darkness, to assure my soul; the light is the anchor that holds. So I opened up my heart; the night gives way to the dawn. The anchor that grips my heart, it’s within the solid rock that steadies my soul. My heart is now locked within a gaze, anchored forever within a love; a love anchor deep within my soul. My soul is free, and my heart is forever nailed to the rock; where the anchor holds!
When the storm of life rages, peace has always been the stillness. The waves rise, but the tide has already turned. My heart finds rest within a calm, knowing the anchor holds. So I walk by faith, what I see; will only be on the surface, of what can truly be. Watered down, will never be my soul; my heart will never be shipwrecked, because I know the anchor holds!
Heavy sometimes becomes my heart, but my soul is forever attached to a hope; that the anchor will forever hold. The chains have been broken, cast aside are the irons; to a heart that knows how to be broken, gracefully. God’s love is the moor, my heart is just a vessel. Anchored to the rock will my heart truly be. Free, yes, my soul will forever be; to the rock that never ages. Firm and securely fasten for years has been my soul. My heart is built on only one foundation; that God’s love will forever be the cornerstone. The truth, my soul now holds on to; anchored, that will forever be my heart!
Lost, lost within your love; my heart wants to be lost, let my heart get lost within your love!
Closer, closer to your heart; draw me closer, let my love get closer to your heart!
Deeper, deeper into your heart; let my love move deeper, move my love deeper into your heart!
Glimpses, my heart has only noticed glimpses. Let my heart, behold the fullness; let my love gaze endlessly, into your heart!
Facet, every facet of your beauty. My heart is captivated, my soul wants to be forever consumed; by the beauty within every single facet of your love!
Show, show my heart how to get lost. Pull my heart closer, take my soul deeper. Let my love see more than just glimpses, let my heart experience every facet. Show my love how to get lost, lost forever within your heart!
Amazing, your love is truly amazing; your love never ceases to amaze. Nestled, my heart feels so amazing; nestled against your love. But my soul needs to be lost, lost forever within the deepest part of your heart. Found, my heart can forever be found lost. Going deeper, getting that much closer; to your heart!
How do I get to the heart of the matter? One song writer says to; “Get Jiggy with it,” but I know that it’s not that simple. I love a good mystery, so why can’t I see what’s right in front of me, better yet; how do I fix the pieces? When I first believed that I could, it was so clear within my heart and mind; but now I’m not too sure, if I even have it within me? This is a mess; life can make things seem scattered into so many pieces. I can clearly see what I have to do, so why can’t I seem to get it right? This is absolutely frustrating, truly puzzling; that I can’t figure this out, but I’m absolutely determined to make this work!
Nobody said that it was going to be easy, and I’m not going to allow myself to fall to pieces over this; quitting is not an option. Spirit, help; me to rely on you, guide my heart. My eyes may not always see clearly, but if a heart is truly open; all mysteries shall be revealed. My heart knew how to see the big picture. The struggle was never about seeing, but having the faith to believe; in what only a heart can truly see!
So I took a step back, to start with the end in mind; to know what my heart is truly trying to see? Even if you could get the pieces to fit perfectly, you would still have to do it over and over; if you decide to just put your heart back into a box. God’s love is the key; to know what is true perfection. Puzzling, isn’t it, that a heart thinks that because it gets close to God. The heart now becomes the key; to unlock the puzzles within a heart!
Even relationships are like a puzzle; when you think that you’ve got it all figured out. You still need to put the right pieces into place, just so your heart knows; to see real love, your heart always needs to be vertical. Yeah, it’s hard at times to see clearly, but with true dedication. Even the small pieces; helps to make all things, work together. All that’s truly needed, is just a little faith; to give you those unforgettable aha moments. To know that God’s love is the unseen hand, that moves our hearts. Giving us the ability; to put all the pieces, into the right places!
Deep within my heart is a song. A song playing softly, a song playing endlessly; the sweetest of love songs; God’s love is the song!
A song heard within the moments, a song heard whenever my heart just needs to be moved for a moment. Still becomes my heart, but moved is my soul; every time my heart gets lost within the moment!
A song that is His heart, a song that’s within my heart; a song weaved throughout my soul. My heart will forever sing a song; love will forever be the song. My heart would never be the same, if my soul couldn’t forever dance; to a song that will forever be a love song!
Some days it’s a slow waltz, other days it’s time to get down and boogie, but every day; it’s just the rhythm within my heart. My heart goes to bed singing to it, my soul spends all night dreaming lyrics that’s part of it. Sometimes a lullaby, sometimes lyrics to get me by; but always a love song!
A song that speaks to my heart, a song that forever plays within my soul. God, take my soul to the dance floor; slow dance with my heart. Let my heart fall in love with Your song again and again. Hold me within the quietness, whisper into my heart within the darkness. You have uniquely composed a song specifically for the rhythm within my heart. Forever my heart will sing; but only our love song!
Babe, may I have your hand, may I forever have your heart? I promise that I will treat your heart like a lady. I will open the door, and let your love feel at home; forever within the depth of my soul. Woman may I just take this moment; a moment to bask in your sweet April rain? In May I once again get to celebrate your love, as my precious May flower. Your April rain is forever beating against my heart, your beautiful flower has forever captured my gaze. Let my heart strike a pose, closed caption; words don’t need to be said, your love already says so much!
Honey, come go with me on a stroll, it’s not far over on memory lane; forever is still our destination. Let’s reflect, yeah; no regrets, babe this love is still my destiny. The month of May is so so very special, I call it magical; two hearts forever became one. Lady I DO… remember; yesterday. Oh, who can ever forget yesterday, because your love will forever be my tomorrow. I took you by the hand, you had me by the heart. May, and a day within; ours to forever remember. Loving me for all these years may not have been easy, just know that my love will forever be true!
Babe I absolutely consider it pure joy, to wake up every day; to feel your love within my heart. May I look deeply into your heart, your love sees so deeply into my soul. My heart is a canvas, God’s love is the brush. Paint on it, say forever, I have your love; God’s love will turn it into a masterpiece. Girl this is truly a love thang, so may I tell you once again; iSwear, to love you Forever. Dear sweetness, your love pours into my soul. May our hearts together truly thrive, not just survive. Your love will forever be my honey, let my heart forever be your hive. Stored up with all the sweet love, your soul will ever desire!
Babe, may not always feel the wind on my breath, you may not always see the rain fall from my eyes. I may forget what happened in the other months, but I will never forget what happens within the month of May; your love makes my heart bloom. We’ve been married for thirty years, but I’m looking forward to the next thousand years. Sweet Lady, Thank You for helping my heart to become a portrait of a better man. May 28, 1988 was truly an amazing day. The day I looked into your heart and said; Forever I Do!
They’re strong, and no one can ever convince them that there’re wrong; so love becomes a battlefield. They’re young, and they don’t give you any promises, even if you demand it; so love stays a battlefield. We battle every day, just to agree that we will always disagree. So the battlefield turns into a mind field; the chaos is now the war zone. They will never give in, but we shall never give up. There’s too much at stake; their hearts, and your sanity!
So the battle rages on, but for one simple reason. K.I.D.S; Kid Irritation Disorder Syndrome. There’s no cure for it, this is a lifelong dilemma. This is an infectious love, absolutely worth injecting into our hearts. But if we’re not careful; improper treatment, can devastate a home. One side effect, the struggle can drive you mad; if you let it. The cure; pray… for strength. Just remember, driving will always be a privilege; not a right. If that doesn’t work, they just might use their life savings; to buy you a one way ticket, aboard the train heading off the rails. The final destination; guilt trip central.
But what they fail to understand, is that you’ve been there done that… yourself. You have the t-shirt, saying it’s a lifetime commitment; on the love train, heading straight to the heart of what matters most. K.I.D.S is absolutely treatable; with the right amount of love and affection. So stay in the fight, endure to the very end. One day they will come to understand; love was the battlefield, but hearts become forever fortified. Heartache to heartache we stand, who can’t hear will feel; that the true battlefield, is outside the home!
The struggle is real, but this is a just cause; their hearts are absolutely worth fighting for. Don’t let it be about taking territory; who’s right, who’s wrong. Equip them for the battles ahead, equip them with the mantle of love. Soon and very soon, they too will need to know how to fight the good fight; when they have their own case of K.I.D.S. The heart of a warrior, will always hold on tight to the truth of love. True love will always fight the battles that counts. Winning the battles was never the goal, building a strong unbreakable bond; that becomes your forever victory. Search your hearts, there you will find the strength to stand. Love is a battlefield, but the fight; is absolutely worth it!
• iSwear, to love you with every breath within my beating heart.
• iSwear, to keep building my heart around your love; let my heart continue be your strong foundation.
• iSwear, to rise up each and every day, to call heart extremely blessed; to have your love as part of my soul.
• iSwear, to hold on tight, gaze endlessly into your heart; I’m not ready to let go of your heart.
• iSwear, that I will love you always, drop the “F” bomb; whenever you just need to hear it said. Woman, the “F” word my heart speak of, will always mean; Forever… iSwear!
As women, people like to label you; categorize you. When you’re young and single, they label you with words like; Hot, Sexy, Fearless. When a woman is older, married and have kids; you become far more than just a sticker price. The labels seen only through the lens of the eyes, but the heart is where the true beauty lies; into you, that’s what they need to see. A woman will never loose the label used to describe her youth, they just simply age like fine wine. Aging heightens the beauty; maturing is what defines the essence within!
As men, we absolutely need to know how to appreciate the true essence. Essence is defined as: An intrinsic nature. The indispensable quality that serve to characterize; that used to identify something, someone. It’s the most important ingredient, the crucial element. The inherent, unchanging nature; A Mother!
Sure, outer beauty is nice to have, but a woman is defined by her true beauty; the essence within. What really makes a woman truly special, is the definition that radiates from within. This label that I speak of, is that of a Mother; a label that speaks of Love, and true Strength. A Mother looks after the home, but that doesn’t define her. She nurtures her kids, with all the love within her soul. All while working to help support the family. A mother’s love; unwavering love!
When you’re young you may be able to turn a few heads, and be admired for your outer beauty. But when a woman truly knows her Worth, she doesn’t need to turn heads; she has learned how to inspire a generation, with her heart. She has truly realized that she is a SUPERWOMAN; with the ability to even stop hearts, with just her presence!
Mothers, the label; scratch that. You have a title; built on Strength, but the foundation is Courage. The strength to be, with the courage that is; flawless. Mothers, I Celebrate You this day, and every day. Don’t let any label define you, it’s a Title that best Describes You; A Woman!
A Love Story!
