A Spiritual Woman
Nurture, sensual ferocious that’s me
Though I died now I live reborn
Tested and tried yet not denied
Some trails I passed many I failed
A gift was given me in spite of my trails
Newness given past now old
Isolation takes its course
Many others walking the same path
Only a few gracious souls last
My life not contained by the rules of society
Desires followed whole hearted speak of my forward smiles
Blessed by God cursed by the world
......................................................................................
Invaders of the Soul
They creep in your sleep
They dominate your dreams
They assault when you are weak
Their aspiration to possess
To keep you bound tied in your mess
They sneak in unawares
They dominate your internal affairs
They strengthen their forces digging deep
Bringing others worse than themselves emotions intertwined
Using your flesh to bid their meat
They confuse your mind
You hear them speaking inside you
You feel there’s nothing you can do?
