Spoken Word Poem.

Like the cool breeze arisen in foreign Eucalyptus trees

You gave life to my dead spirit and I finally feel like

I can breathe.

I feel you inspire, sweet hope you provide

You make my heart tumble to its knees, and my weakness

Subsides

 

YOU CLEANSE ME

.. ..

Your beauty rages like the strength of a dragon

Unto me you fell unaware of your full power

The mystery behind your existence is to most unknown

But savior non the less to one who hopelessly

Recognizes who you are and the purpose you serve

.. ..

YOU CLEANSE ME

.. ..

I have seen many faces to whom once upon a time I thought

Maybe could have been the one

Shared bits and pieces of a hidden secret never

Whispered to any other in my past

Then you shifted into my broken vision

And my eyes have not moved from you

My soul is drawn to you like a newborn to a mother’s milk

From which I hope never to be weaned.

.. ..

YOU CLEANSE ME

.. ..

“In love” is a shallow comparison to my even deeper

More passionate feelings for you.

I weaken you strengthen

I fall

You carry me

I cry

You cry with me

I feel as though I am going insane

You rescue me from myself

Fear and doubt consume me

You make a stand for me, for us, for my life

.. ..

YOU CLEANSE ME

.. ..

.. ..

You fill the empty places with pieces of you

You color the parts of me that have always been blue

You add truth to lies and courage to fear

You are my sweet surrender

You kiss forbidden places on me

U restore my relentless spirit

.. ..

YOU CLEANSE ME

.. ..

You are my tomorrow

My present here in the present day

Unconditionally you love me

You heal me

You hold me

You hide me

.. ..

YOU CLEANSE ME

.. ..

And when I raise my hand to wave my white flag

Because life has beaten me down. I look upon your desperate face

And it is there that I find my river with NO waves

My sanctuary

.. ..

You lower my flag

You open my eyes

So that I can clearly see

That when I’m covered in pain

From all of life’s dirt

Its YOU WHO CLEANSES ME!
