Intimate Compositions

Who will hear them?

May 21st, 2018

He has been through so much pain. In darkness and loneliness he sits and keeps his hurt inside. He is a child and he deserves love and protection, but he has been victimized and unloved.

She sits with a bruised body and a face of sorrow. Time and time again she is abused by the hands of the man who claims to love her. She suffers in lonely silence.

In a room he lies on his bed, unable to move; unable to function. Mental illness wreaks havoc on his mind and he has lost all hope. He had lost his family due to his illness and is now living in hell and torment.

She was a joyous and happy woman. A wonderful mother and beautiful wife. She now is seen in dark places, and her face of beauty has now turned into a face of weariness and hard life. She has fallen victim to the scourge of addiction and the dark streets feed on her soul. She has nothing left but the faint memory of her children. She cries inside but she cannot break the power of addiction that now rules over her.

Who will cry for these souls?

Who will cry for the weary?

Who will cry for the oppressed?

Who will cry for the abused?

Who will cry for the tormented?

Who will cry for the sick and ill?

Who will cry for the addicted?

Who will cry for those with no voice?

Who will cry for the afflicted?

Who will cry for the precious children?

Who will cry for the unloved?

I will cry for them because no one will hear their plea. I will cry for them because they are deserved of love. I will cry for them because I hear their cries. I will cry for them because they have no more tears to give. I will cry for them because they cannot cry for themselves. I will weep for them because I love them.

My Precious Lady, I had given up on myself but you believed in me. You saw something in me that I could not see in myself. It was your love that rescued me; it was your beautiful and mysterious eyes that looked past my faults and saw my soul. It was not only your eyes that saw me, but it was the love in you that saw the essence of my heart and the depths of my soul. I will forever love you . . .
My Love

May 20th, 2018

My love, we have come together as one. We have solidified our bond of love. Today, let us forget the world and express ourselves in deep intimacy. Let us renew our vows of love to each other and spend the day in service to one another. You are mine and I am yours. You are the woman of my dreams and I will forever be thankful for you. The heavens know my feelings for you, my lady. We will keep our secrets of love between us; you have the key to my heart as I have the key to yours. My eyes have no longing to gaze upon any other but you, and only you. Your joyous laughter invigorates my spirit. I love you with a love that is unexplainable in words. Our spirits intertwine in divine devotion. There is no life without you. We hold each other tightly in warmth and say a silent prayer in each others arms. Tears of joy flow from our eyes as we recount our days and nights together in love and harmony. My love, you are the light of my life. We face the world together. You have comforted me on long days and stormy nights. I lay my head on your lap as you sing me a beautiful song of comfort. You temper me with your soft caress and calm the restless spirit within me. You speak to me even in silence and you love me. I am immersed in your love and kindness. Your virtue is a blessing to me. I love you. You are my morning prayer. You are my life.
Lavender Dreams

May 20th, 2018

In lavender dreams I see you, and I am lost in your love. Your sweet scent intoxicating me in my subconscious, calling me to lavender fields in the warmth of the sunshine. My love, in those beautiful fields you walk barefoot, a product of nature and divine creation. Your smile is beautiful and indescribable, causing my being to feel a sudden warmth and deep feeling. Your long hair glistening in the sun is a sight to behold, it is a glory and gift given by the creator. I had fallen in love with you instantly upon beholding your countenance. Adorned in all white, you looked as delicate as a flower; as gorgeous and sweet as a pink rose bush in full bloom.

Darling let us walk slowly in your fields and converse about the heavens. Let me prove my love for you and toil in your fields day and night. At night please stare out of your window and cast your gaze on me, for your eyes are heavenly and loving. Three seasons ago I would have never thought that I would have needed you; needed your love. You had been visiting me for some time and I played the fool; I had taken you for granted and you had stopped visiting me. What a fool I was. Day and night I slept like I hadn’t slept in years, calling for you, begging for you to once again visit me in my dreams and comfort me. I cursed myself for being a stupid and foolish man, to take for granted such a wondrous being of love and beauty. Where are you? Where are you O, woman of the lavender fields? Come back to me for I was a fool and I now fall on my face and will wither away without your love.

You came back to me and rescued my failing heart and weakened spirit. You rejuvenated my will, and gave me purpose once again. Be me wife lovely woman; let me make my solemn vow to you right here and now to always love you. I cannot go on without your smile and warmth. I refuse to be a fool ever again. Let us walk the lavender fields together and enjoy the fragrance in the evening. Let us have picnics with the finest samples of cheeses and the rarest of wines. Allow me to prepare a fine meal for you and then bathe you with the sweet scent of bath oils. Such a natural beauty; such a wonderful woman of love and laughter. I had heard of other men contending for your love, and trying to steal your heart. Who are they to understand the complexities and the true nature of you? Who are they to sneak into your fields unannounced and harvest the sweet fragrance of your lavender flowers?

Darling they were too late, for I had already stolen your heart on a warm evening in spring. I had already vowed my vow and poured out my heart to you. I cried in your presence and released my emotion like a caged bird is released into flight once more. It was then that you held and comforted me. You held my hand and guided me back into your fields once again for a midsummer walk. I looked at you in glowing light and I could not hold back my feelings and my love for you. I held and kissed you as we stared into each others eyes and whispered our vows to each other once again. I love you woman of the lavender fields. We will hold each other and dance once again in my dreams.
Divine Lady

May 19th, 2018

Welcome to my warmth. I promise to love and protect you always. I promise to be a rock in deep dark seas; a place of escape and healing. I will love you to the end of time. Our legacy of love will live on and fill the pages of history with the stories of our courtship and love. I love you with such feeling that tears could not fathom. I adore you. You had come to me like a dream in the dawning of the day; the sun rising in the heavens above me, signaling the beginning of our love. The moonlight illuminating you with such passion and depth, that my soul cried out inside me. Your face a wondrous pleasure in beautiful splendor.

My god, your beauty electrified me as I gazed upon you in trance like state. My love, your beauty is unparalleled and comparable to nothing in this world. Where can I find the words to say to you? Your inner light is bright and you pull me in with your words of love and encouragement. Oh, how wonderful to have a woman so endearing; so kind; so giving of herself! Your warmth and tenderness touch me at depths not found in the deepest of oceans. You embrace me and kiss me in the darkness of night. It is a comfort that is indescribable; a sweet song, soothing with every verse and stanza.

Darling, please sing to me again; sing me a lovely song in soprano, and after whisper in my ears a passionate love story of two people who came together, and found love in each others arms. I have been longing for you my wife; the days are so long when you are not near me. Without you, I am but a man on a long and lonely road, lost in a desert in search of water to quench my thirst and revive me once again. I will hold you in my arms for a lifetime my love. I will sing to you the lyrics of our love; a dream fulfilled as fate would have it.

Oh, what wonderful things we have found in each other! A love and bond that could never be broken or torn asunder! My only proclamation is to love you forever my divine lady. For I have vowed a vow and declared to the earth and the galaxies great deep and personal feelings for you. I have whispered it to the moon and the stars, and I have sung it to the streams and valleys. I love her; I love her. Divine Lady, I’ll love you always.
My Plea

May 18th, 2018

Lord, hide me under your wings and wrap me in your love, for I am afraid and I drown in my despair. Shelter me from the storms and the rough seas, and be my guide. I am destitute without you; I am a man in turmoil. Do not hide your face from me. Betrayal waits in dark corners ready to inject its venom. My own thoughts consume me to the point of madness. In my hour of torment I seek you daily, but I am not certain you are hearing my cries. Remember me Father and do not let me drown in these deep and dark waters, for I am tired and my hope wanes in my waiting.

The wicked ones seek to destroy me; fear and anxiety have railed against me and they seek to take my life. Heavenly Father, you are my only light in the darkness. There is no rest or comfort without you. I have tried it my way and have failed time and time again; I now leave it all in your hands and I submit my will. Send your angels in my time of agony and shelter me. Erase the scourge of illness from me and increase my joy. Restore me to the days of my youth and encourage my will. My torment seemingly never ends and I strive to find rest in you. Let me rest in the clouds and cause my face to feel the warmth of the sun.; release me from the bondage of doubt and the chains of suffering. Wash away my pain and wipe away my many tears of sorrow; I still believe in you and I will hold onto my faith.

Who can I turn to? Who will understand my plight? Even from family I have felt the venomous sting of betrayal; they had conspired against me, but now they suffer. I was but a child when they plotted against me, now their ill gotten gains have turned sour in their mouths and have poisoned their bloodstream. The sepsis of deceit and greed have consumed them, and have infected their very souls. Heavenly Father, you delivered me out of many situations. I thank you. Perilous times are all around me: the world waxes more and more wicked by the day, but I continue to put my trust in you. My earthly father has shown himself to be a coward. I have no father but you O, Lord.

Hide me in your secret place and show me mercy, for I am not worthy of you. I am not worthy of your son’s sacrifice. I am a man who stumbles in the darkness trying to come into your light. I still hold my torch, but my oil runs low and my lamp is dimly lit. I still trust in you and I thank you Father. Please do not forget me. This is my plea.
Weary Hearts

May 18th, 2018

Weary hearts continue on their long journey of sorrow. Some have experienced happiness before and some have never had happiness or a moment’s peace. They are weary; they are so weary. They seek love and acceptance. They seek peace and solace. Their road has been one of pain and hurt. Tears and disappointment have been their existence. They float through life hiding their deep pain and hurt. They have been lied to, abused, taken for granted, hurt, used, and have been unloved. If only they could find a place of warmth and love; if only they could find tranquility and joy. They hide behind forced smiles and happy faces. They hide behind their careers and seemingly happy families.

Some hide behind nothing, for they have nothing to hide behind; they live in poverty and blight. How long can these weary hearts go on without failing? The tears roll down in streams when they can no longer bear it. Their wailing reverberates throughout galaxies; throughout space and time. Some sit in dark and quiet rooms, and are drowned in their suffering. Who will care for these hearts who have walked the long road of suffering? Who will love the unloved and abused? Who will shield them from the cold and darkness of the world? Oh those precious children whose hearts are filled with pain each day, and the little ones who cannot speak for themselves. Who will fight for them? The abused kept in the dark who are repeatedly hurt and hurt again. Who will hear their plea?

O, weary hearts I will cry for you. I will think of your plight and pain in my every waking hour. I will dream of your redemption and your freedom from the chains of sorrow. I will pray to the heavenly Father and plead your cause. For you are deserving of love. You are deserving of peace and safety. You are a light in a dark world, and your light will vanquish the darkness. You will find love, and your long and weary journey will come to an end. Weary hearts do not despair, for your time of joy and solace is nearly here. Let my words reach you in love and uplift your spirit.

Love and light to you.
Woman

May 17th, 2018

The essence of her beauty is captured in my eyes. Made by the hands of the creator, she was sculpted in flawless perfection; every part of her put together with love and divine purpose. Her face is a delicate beauty, as radiant as the morning sun, captivating the hearts of men. Measures of beryl and gold could not stand next to her; the most flawless of diamonds could not compare.

Her eyes are like a mystery; a beautiful secret yet to be uncovered. Her lips are akin to perfectly ripened fruit picked in its season, glistening in the morning dew. She is a wonder and the epitome of perfection. Her hair is long and it is her glory; a covering given to her by the heavenly Father. It falls delicately against her back and is as soft as mulberry silk. Her nature is of sensitivity and gentleness.

The sweet scent and soft texture of rose petals could not accurately describe her delicacy. As a rare sculpture she is to be handled with care and love. Her innocence is a precious gift to be protected, and not freely given away or violated. She is blessed to conceive and through her womb springs new life. She is a treasure among treasures. From her crown, to her feet she will be forever concealed, and wrapped in mystery. She is the most beautiful work of art in the heavens and the earth.

Her name is Woman.

Dedicated to You

May 14th, 2018

I dedicate this to all of you who have lost your mothers.

Today has been a day of reflection and solitude for me. I have been asking the heavenly Father, what I have asked since my childhood. That oft familiar and poignant question: Lord, why did you take my mother? Why did you let her die? In my adulthood, I seemingly still not have come to absolute terms that my beautiful mother is no longer living. I have asked myself for quite some time if my questions are somehow overly simplistic or childlike in nature. Who knows? I know some may say, there is no one answer, or it was her time, or who could really know the reasons God allows certain things to happen? I guess all or most of these answers would be acceptable, but something in me still grapples with idea of her not being here.

Is it an unrealistic premise to finally find some sort of satisfactory answer to her death? I don’t know. Then again, I would refuse any answer at all to be a finite and everlasting conclusion. At this point I think I will just let it lie. I have been on this hamster wheel long enough, and I have been well overdue to get off and just appreciate her for who she was, and who she is in my heart. Oft as a child, I would ask God why he didn’t take me with her. I was told by family and by the friends of my mother, that I was in the car when it happened. I still can’t remember anything from that fateful day and I probably never will. There is so much more I can write but I will leave it here.

So with that being said, I would like to thank all the wonderful mothers out there in the world. I would also like to dedicate this piece to all the sad and lonely boys and girls who have lost their Moms. I grieve with you. I grieve for you. Please remember there are many of us who share in your pain, and I understand your sorrow. Seek your answers and cry as long as you want to, for you have no cause to be ashamed. I for one can say that I care about you and I love you. You may see your friends with their mom’s and dad’s, and be sad. You may see members of your family with their parents, but remember you are special, and Mom watches over you, and she loves you. Always remember her in your heart and she will live on in your memory.

Blessings to you.
