If I have to,I will walk through blazing hot coal with my bare feet,To feel the peace God offers me,With open arms,Because,There is nothing else that makes me feel the amount of love,He has for His creations,But,Him.No matter the applause,Nor,The sea of women who gawk at my talent,Nor,Each lumpsum of money giving me a chance...

Love In Our Naked Eye – Day 63, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Being aroused is a feeling I don't want to feel any longer,Unless I'm with the love of my life,Whoever that may be.Happily married.Underneath a canopy of warmth,Devotion and endearment built by our need to look each other in our naked eyes and say,I love you.Sexual inclinations,To me,Mean nothing if you're not with the lover of...

Mirrored Caricatures – Day 62, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
A caricature my beloveds' memory of myself it became.But,Jokes on them since I laugh at myself,Anyway.I tend to believe if you can't giggle at yourself,A part of you is dead inside,In need of revival… Nobody's perfect.As cliché as it is,Nobody's certain!Of themselves completely.We,Stumble at times.We,Crumble and cry.Sometimes,We just need a big ole' humble pie!Our faces...

Caught By His Grace – Day 60, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Ruminant as a nomad without a home,Unless I'm allowed within an inch of God's presence.No other place warms my heart frozen from the lowest depths of an abyss I'm still trapped in.Nothing.And,I mean nothing!Can provide heat hot enough to singe the palm of a Devil constantly attacking me.Regardless of how many others I've come across,They...

Silent Spaces – Day 59, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
So silent.The only thing audible are the lights that stay on,Out of my control.Nothing can be heard beyond the entryway.Soundproof.Just what a poet desires… The bittersweet sounds of nothingness combined with each cry from my inner-child is,Something to behold.A joyous occasion experienced once in a blue moon,For a soul searching for,Space… Space from a world...

The Only One That Will Catch You – Day 58, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Who am I to give my soul,To whom it doesn't belong to?If you're not who created it,Never can you savor it,No matter how much you want to… I owe and give it all to Jesus.When I needed someone to hold on to,Through the storm,Only He was there to keep me steady through the season,That could've...

Bulldozer – Day 56, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
A bulldozer is what I intend to be.Obstacles are a part of life,And,It's our job to run them over.Some never clock in,But,I'm locked in and see past the lack of acceptance.Whether or not others forgive me,I forgive myself for what I did in my rocky past,Moving on from the horrid man I was becoming.There's no...

Breathe Again – Day 55, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Blank pages,For me,Are oceans of solitude and solace I can drown inside of,With a smile I can't find elsewhere.The susurations of loose-leaves falling on my deaf ears,Vibrate the kind of love I look for in the palms of another.Palms I wish I was holding on to while surrounded by so many doctors smothering my faith,For...
