The Unrest

Welcome to the
Unrest,
to true
selfless motherhood,
to Love for another that's
REAL.
Welcome to the
Unrest,
where your heart
walks around
outside your body,
and your preoccupation
does not begin with
'me', 'myself' or 'I'.
Welcome to the
Unrest,
to abandoning your
excuses,
to sacrificing everything,
to giving it
ALL.
Welcome to the
Unrest,
where the rewards are
greater than you
ever imagined,
and the chance you have
to touch the world,
is the chance
YOU TAKE.

Call Me Love

Call me
Love,
for that's all I
am,
all I
know,
all I
see.

Call me
Love,
change my
name,
because I
can't escape it,
nothing can
break it.

Call me
Love,
for that's all
that matters,
all anyone
wants,
all I have
to give.

Call me
Love.

Untitled Nightmare

It's dark and
haunting,
ripping through
the peace.
The shells of colors
stand as ghosts:
whithered
and dead,
having bled to death
in the saturation
of destruction.

Open up.
Light floods the
scene of
smoking wreckage and
shatter pieces of
what
was.

Ready or Not

There is so much
LIFE
in beginnings,
so much
POTENTIAL;
if it can be
IMAGINED,
then it can
BE.

I sit and stare
at this new beginning,
and a
MILLION THOUGHTS
flood my mind.
Thoughts of you,
thoughts of me,
thoughts of God,
thoughts of color,
thoughts of friendships,
thoughts of adventure,
thoughts of risks,
thoughts of growth,
thoughts of challenges.

Dear Next Ten Months Of My Life:
ready or not,
HERE
I
COME.

Please Will You Hurry Up

Have I mentioned to you
lately
how completely and utterly
DISTRACTING
you are?!
You have infiltrated
my thoughts
and I can't seem
to remove your
name and face
from the very front
of my mind.
You have got me thinking
all sorts
of things,
and have disrupted my
get-through-the-day attitude;
every thought of you
is punctuated with a
smile.

Dear My Life:
please will you
HURRY UP.

Whispers of Love

Breathe, Darling;
don't take your eyes off Me.
My love is
enough.
Choose trust,
Sweet One,
choose rest;
everything is
already
taken care of.
Smile, My Beauty;
I delight in you.
Nothing makes Me happier
than calling you
My own.
Hold still,
My Love;
I will wrap
My arms around you,
give you strength
give you hope
give you reasons
NOT to give up.
Obey Me,
Precious Child;
I want and know
what's best.
Let it go,
and be infinitely blessed.
You're Mine.

Don't Be Angry, My Dear

I am only motivated
by love,
My Dear;
it is only because
I CARE.
Nothing you
do or say
will alter that,
will take it away,
will change my mind.
My love for you is
unconditional,
you see.
So,
My Dear,
don't be angry
with me
for simply wanting for you
what's best;
it only makes me
want it
MORE.

Such A Time As This

In sheer faith,
I fell on my face,
praying for you
all night long.
I wept
and begged
and poured out my heart
through the watches
of the night.

I have risen
to my feet again,
head held high,
FEARLESS.
I am ready to do
whatever
deliverance demands;
I have come to my position
for such a time as this.

My Love

You have a lot
to lose,
My Love.
Please don't take
the risk.
I would absolutely
hate to see
your life after it
self-destructs.

You have a lot
to lose,
My Love.
You may think
I'm farther away
but I'm not
- I remain at your side -
it's you who's
turning away;
and both of us that
changed - every single day.

You have a lot
to lose,
My Love.
But if you choose
not to fight this,
and succumb to
your own destruction,
then I've lost you already
- which is too bad because
you will
ALWAYS
have my heart.

Opposites

I guess I just
forgot
that we are
opposites.

That wasn't the answer
I wanted -
but it was very
YOU.
Sometimes our balance
is very comforting;
sometimes,
not so much.
But I don't
CLASH
like you do
[of course not -
I am your opposite],
I simply
BREAK
against whoever I have
collided with,
and change to
meet their needs.

But when it's
ME
with the need,
I can't really
compromise.
