Take Time

Take time to fall in love with yourself

that aint cliche

Take time to love every freckle and love handle on your body.

Take to time to praise Him

and then take some more time to praise YOU.

You have earned the right to smear red puckered lips all over your soul.

Take time to answer those questions you've always had and take time to rub your hands all over your BODY.

Take time to look back at all your mistakes

And then take time to rebuke every thing and every thought that would want you to feel guilty about those mistakes.

Take time to sit for five minutes with your eyes closed and dream,

Take time to cease that dream and make it your life.

Take time to love him and take time to resist any urge you may have to stop communication.

Take time to see yourself LOVED and BLESSED and LAVISHED by the man God has sent you.

Take time to scream and let the world know that you are here.

Take some more time to let them know that you don't care if they know.

Take time to laugh and cry

to pray and doubt

to assume faith and then grow.

Take time to fall in love with everything your mom and dad told you not to become.

Take time to love God whole heartedly and completely.

Take 

time 

to 

Take

Time.

Scholars

Love is not math.

Love is science.

Love is one big science experiment with no hypothesis...

And I'm not gonna entertain the consequences that may come along if we mix chemicals together.

Because I want all of you inside of me.

You might be thinkin' sexually. 

But baby im thinkin spiritually.

that's when I feel like we're meant to be.

and Im not even about all this rhymin' sh*t.

Love is not science.

Love is math.

Because YOU plus ME equals this ecstasy that I cant explain..

And I dont want to.

I just wanna sit back and feel the love that you exude..

Even when your miles away.

Love is not one

Love is two

The two of us educating each other on math and science and science and math

Because surely we are scholars on the subject.

Touch me once again

Lord, touch me once again 

so that when you do we can become intimate again

Because if you do I will be exposed to your glory moreover

And Im hoping that it will overflow so that when it does, it will spill into others lives

so that they may be blessed by your righteousness

And it has all been so simple this whole time

but yet I did not know for what to appeal

Yet, it is by your glory that I am able to be completely healed and delivered and frrreeee

And I think your touching me right now, everyday

Its just that at times I am too stubborn to unharden this hardened heart of mine

Is it as simple as to just ask for your touch?

Yes I want to receive but I want to be in relationship with you more than what comes along 

Then I can know how to treat others and love others and....touch others

Like you

When you

touch me

Stranger

I am a stranger to the home I helped to build
I have the bruises on my heart to prove it.
I am not welcomed here and yet I prayed day after day for us to make it through
You tell me to go
But I long to stay with you
And love you
And have you love me
Is it possible to be happy?
Or is that one of those emotions that only one in a billion people feel and never live to share it?
I belong here.
This is my home...
You can lock me out
But I still have the key because I built itI
still have the pain and the sweat and the tears to prove it.
And yet at the end of this day....
I still long to love you
And have you love me
