End the stigma







It's been far too long since I have shared some poetry, so here you go. 

Sweet Irony- a Confession

Forgive me Father, for I have sinned.

I have loved a man more desperately than I have loved God. 
I have looked to a man more reverently than I have the sky. 
There in the sulk of his bottom lip, 
I find myself talking about a heaven which only exists when he is looking at me. 
Father, he has not been forged between the dip of my teeth, 
I am not of his rib, or his left side: I am his entire stomach, I am his spine. 


I have been searching for prayer Father, but I have found that I can only say his name and I am left speechless...

Dear God, let me have him

Dear God, let him rest with me 

Dear God, let the sky turn red from how we burn. 


The roses in our back garden have withered Father, because I have not seen the sun for five days. 
I have been worshipping at the cradle of his hips.
He has cleansed me with those hands, and those eyes.
I do not know how to turn unless it is towards him, 
I do not know where to go except in his direction.

Father forgive that which made our false religion,
Let our souls fly back to where we found a touch of you.
Take me home, rest and renew the time torn souls 

Peace of mind lost in the noise 
Hearts made into toys
Everything and nothing leading away to empty homes.

God forgive me, hold on to my hand, 
Turn our faces towards our new religion
Don't let let the tears flow.
You took my heart so grant us peace, 
Grant us freedom 
And bring us to a life everlasting
With You.

Starstruck

A throwback to some old Lady Gaga which I'm sure we could all relate to at some point xD

I hope you're all having a blessed week. 

Love,
