GOD

I love you. For this reason alone I will bear my cross with no complaints

I owe you my life and for every single blessing I give thanks

In the midst of every trial you bury a divine principle

Therefore, in each struggle I search for elements that will make me more invincible

Whenever life's pressures burst my last bottle of hope

You supply me with an abundance of confidence and the love that I need to cope

At times I fear death, then I realize that death is the only pathway to heaven and eternal life

I find comfort in the fact that my sins are forgiven because of Jesus Christ

Your power sustains me whenever storms threaten my stability

Your divine intervention has converted chaotic moments into tranquility

I admire your ability to orchestrate an infinite number of events simultaneously

I respect your decision to disregard my prayers to live life painlessly

Your heavenly grace shields me from the wrath of antagonists

Therefore in any confrontation I personify the confidence of a protagonist

Because of your loyalty to me, my attitude is nonchalant with regards to friends

I'd rather sit in solitude and talk to you, instead of maintaining friendships that are destined to end

You are my best friend and the master of my life

You epitomize everything that is pure, perfect, and right

I submit myself completely to you and to your divine plan

Thank you for the unconditional love and deliverance from the darkness of a disheartening trance

LIFE AND DEATH

To live and to learn is inevitable

To walk through life unchanged makes you far from credible

Life's pressures and pains modify our characters more often than it rains

Therefore, we are often drained from the emotional abuse of the failure to maintain

The failure to maintain stability, tranquility, or even humility

Slowly murders us, then we die without dignity

POETIC

INFIDELITY

Infidelity is equivalent to the trust in one's heart divided by the passion of one's flesh

It's powerful enough to force a daughter to put her own father to rest

People selfishly submit to temptation while carelessly betraying their only true love

When reality is revealed they exhibit no remorse, yet expect forgiveness from their victim and the judge up above

If more people cherished their life partner's the spread of HIV would drastically decline

But many people can't see their blessings because lust makes them blind

They walk around in darkness searching for any warm touch

These deceptive touches disguised as lovers at best are no more than sick fucks

As much as I would like to believe that my father is not a whore

He proved that he is by committing adultery behind closed doors

It's disturbing how the most faithful churchgoers can violate their vows but tell me that I'm living in sin

Then they have the audacity to pray for my deliverance from being a lesbian

How hypocritical is that ?

About the same as a potbellied man leaving his wife because she got fat

The endless lies and severed ties can unquestionably result in a double homicide

Followed by a suicide all because one person failed to be bona fide

Instead that person chose to relinquish a lifetime of love

And triggered the onset of withdrawal effects like those caused by any morphine drug

After the victim comes to grips with the betrayal

He or she will attempt to rationalize it but will fail

Because infidelity is a senseless, unjust, and irrational act

And no matter how hard the adulterer tries to regain trust, the victim will never give it back
