Enjoy a few Love Notes - Month End How can this month end without any words from my pen? Can love reinvent itself over and over again? Life is to be lived freely like the breeze. My dreams tell stories of more than just The birds and the bees. A full moon came seven days ago, Another one will be here soon I pray. The sun hid behind the clouds of gray, I woke up to another day. Madness on my mind from the beliefs of this world. My lover told me I was still a little girl. Welcome to reality Goodbye to fake ideology And idols I no longer believe in. It feels good to be in my skin To let go of burdens and cares And live life fearless with no stairs Going up or down No elevator, no sound. Only waves that happen From the sea touching the land. I raise my hands to praise, I start a new phase, I daze. A new thought comes every second I rest my brain, I still my Mind. Picking up my pen once again Before the month comes to an end. Salms 21 I cried for 21 minutes I died for 21 minutes I screamed and dreamed for 21 minutes I awakened to 21 birds singing I listened for 21 minutes I rested for 21 minutes and cried again My heart mended My mind stopped pretending My soul took control Knowing death is a part of life I move forward without strife No regrets, no worry, no fret Freedom, and free to be Exactly what my God Created me to be Mind Mediocrity I remember back when I used to Fry my hair Dye my hair Sometimes even buy my hair Because that's what I was told I should do Now I choose to Grow my hair ’Fro my hair Some days not even care to comb my hair Because that's what I know I can do Freedom of hair is an energy It is a joy for me A laugh and even a cry for me A pleasure to see me And only me Knowing that it is Spirit I see Living in me Glowing in me Loving the world Praying for harmony Relief from the grief of modern world society How could that be Chem-free from lye And lies told to me To make me feel a part of this country America, land of the free How lovely that should be If as a child I was taught that we are Divinity And divine Think about more than hair and shine Just shine Just shine on ... and sign on to Reality, not the illusion of Technology whose goal is mind mediocrity
