Lovesong Poetry

Yes, I often like to use symbolism when I write. I have another poem too that I wrote around same time as this one, I love the way they both became. The other one is originally written in Norwegian; in Nynorsk. Nynorsk is more seen as an written language of Norwegian, a very poetic language. I grew up with that language in school as a child, but sadly it is starting with fading away and out from the school system these days. They say it might become an instinct language. I have translated(my husband has helped me most with doing the translation part, since I am not yet so good in Dutch)the poem into Dutch only, not yet into English, though if you are interested to reading it I could translate it into English as well. I have done that with some other poems in translating them from either Spanish to English, or Norwegian to English.

Like you; Most of my poems are also written through my difficult times in life. Though I have also some poems that I have managed writing when I was feeling joyful or in a very strong praising mood towards God. Just depends. Thank you for your good words too.

Ohh and Turandot is set in China not Japan sorry for the mix up, its a Persian title though.

I'm sorry about the language fading away I hope you can preserve it. Its hard to learn my own language (Lakota) myself.. for some reason its not hard for Germans to speak it, they can learn it quickly because of the similarities to their language.

Yeah I'm very interested in reading it can you put the original and the translation too that would be awesome.

Yeah I probably should write some in joy, its a strength.

Yeah, I saw a bit from it into wikipedia. Thanks for telling me about it. I will keep it in mind.

Wow, Dude; Awesome written poem. This is a joyful poem praise to God.

Then I will do that, sometime soon.


Where does that language Lakota comes from, btw?

Its a Native American language the first Americans, well it is the midwestern part, The Lakota people were pretty strong to keep it from being wiped out completely. Its hard to learn because of assimilation, but Gods giving me strength to learn everything the devil stole from me, as of this year I'm sure i'll get the hang of learning it.

That sounds pretty cool.

So you are partly indian or fullblooded indian then? Wishing you all the best with learning, you can do it! I am sure you can! And since it is a part of your personality, I understand the importance it has for you too.

well 15/16 but its counted full blooded its kind of getting rare these days too though, Thankyou,

Thats really good, thanks for sharing. Its sounds like a Triumphant Anthem.

princess - by Lowanla (me)

young princess
do not give in to alluring words
no matter how much they do for you,
guard thy heart
it is a precious jewel

and temptation may look
good now but later
you realized that they used you
as a fool

so guard thy precious heart
treat it greater then your life
for one day
God will send you someone
worthy of it

even if not guard thy heart anyway
for the Lords sake
and he will crown you with
many riches the world cannot
give

for you belong to him who loved
you more than any man ever will.

Yes guard thy heart
and you shall be fulfilled.

For the abused princess - by Lowanla (me)

sitting on the floor
hair tangled and ripped
on her knees praying
all her dignity stripped

is this love?
O beautiful princess
Yes I am talking to you
who allows you to think
what he does
is okay and your just due

How the your Lord King cries
watching you slowly die
and everyday he opens
a way for you
that oneday you shall
escape

Love is not jealous
Love does not envy
Love does not boast
Love is not prideful
Love is not fear
Love does not own you
you are not an object

Love is freedom
Love lets go
Love trusts God
Love lays down ones
life just for you

You are worth more than this
you are worth life,
you are beautiful
so with all your strength
save yourself

for God wants you to live
in freedom

For he is the one that
truly loves you.

Movin on very hard to let go - by Lowanla (me)

its hard to heal a broken heart
especially when the time of being
in love is cut so short
especially when God tells
you to let go

bursting into tears in the middle
of no where
its hard ...yes Love is hard.

especially when darkness
seeks to destroy you,
for you've torn down a gate
in hell

yes I've opened their eyes
and now they seek my life.

But thats okay,
love required I lay my life
down for this anyway.
I am not afraid.
For I know where I shall
spend eternity.

but my dear
where shall you be?
times running out
choose life
its not a love game anymore...

so with this a new chapter
I begin
so regardless the turmoil
and what seems unfair
my future grows brighter
for that great day
I shall be at a place
called there.

(Okay I know some of mine seem abit depressive sorry, here is my attempt at a happy poem hehe XD)

Interstate 77 - By Lowanla (me)

driving on interstate 77
Smile on your almost there
dance your way through the valley
cast off all your cares

laughter bubbles inside
for you see eternal glory
the light from the sunshine
reveals the true love story

In fact; I don't see any of those poems above the last one as depressive, since they do have a sign of given hope in it. It might be a bit sad sounding the poem, but when one writes about hope and love in God, it changes over from being negative to becoming positive. Or that's how I see it.


They are all very nice and heartfelt poems. I first liked a lot the "Princess" one, although all of them are very nice in their own given ways. Your last poem there do have a lot of joy over it, very funny reading that one, I can clearly feel "the joy" over it.

I Wish We'd All Been Ready (Christian Music Video) - YouTube

(NOTE - These are not my lyrics)

*Lyrics by Larry Norman*


I Wish We'd All Been Ready - by Larry Norman

Life was filled with guns and war,
And everyone got trampled on the floor,
I wish we'd all been ready
Children died, the days grew cold,
A piece of bread could buy a bag of gold,
I wish we'd all been ready,
There's no time to change your mind,
The Son has come and you've been left behind.
A man and wife asleep in bed,
She hears a noise and turns her head, he's gone,
I wish we'd all be ready,
Two men walking up a hill,
One disappears and one's left standing still,
I wish we'd all been ready,
There's no time to change your mind,
The Son has come and you've been left behind.
Life was filled with guns and war,
And everyone got trampled on the floor,
I wish we'd all been ready,
Children died, the days grew cold,
A piece of bread could buy a bag of gold,
I wish we'd all been ready,
There's no time to change your mind,
How could you have been so blind,
The Father spoke, the demons dined,
The Son has come and you've been left behind.

*lyrics by Larry Norman*

(I keep hearing this song over and over in my head so I have to put them down on here)

Powerful song lyrick.


-God Bless All-

Yeah I kept hearing that song all day in my head, so I turned it on at youtube and I listend to it, then began to cry, maybe I'm just emotional at the moment. But yeah I love Larry Normans Lyrics.

"Psalm 51:10-12" - From the Bible NIV Version

Create in me a pure heart, O God.
and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
Do not cast me from your presence.
or take your Holy Spirit from me.
Restore to me the joy of your salvation.
and grant me a willing spirit to sustain me.

My Grievances - By Lowanla (me)

I know its my fault,
my heart is torn and rot,
for my sin stabbed your wrist,
you begin to bleed from your fist

I follow you my Lord,
but my strength is poor,
what should I do?
for I sin I stand as a fool

Have mercy on me for I am truly nothing,
Nothing compared to you my King.
Forgive ALL my evil transgressions
my ash filled tears filled with confessions

Restore my spirit as a new creation
I'd rather not live unholy in the nation,
I cannot go back to face what I find evil
I'd rather live the life of a short lived believer.
-end-
