Lovesong Poetry

LoVe
by: Lowanla (me)

In order to prove my faith
I'm glad these things
written
cannot be changed
I stare death in the face
under my feet it
lies in disgrace

Gonna tear the veil
on this third day
that once separated man
from God

with this sacrifice of me
you will know
The Lord is Good
and his Mercy endures forever.

He has not forgotten man
so he can know him once again
that God answers cries
of "please help me"

or

"I Need Hope"

Jesus knows your name

LoVe.


He started a good work in you
and he will finish it till he returns
to take us home.

He Will Never Let You Go.

God said it..

I believe it..

That settles it.

Psalm 118
​

being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus - Philippians 1:6

He knows your name...

Light

This will be your life song...

I will not die but live, and will proclaim what the LORD has done. - Psalm 118:17

What can seperate you from God's love?

For I am convinced that neither
death nor life,
neither angels nor demons,
neither
the present nor the future,
nor any powers,
neither height nor depth,
nor anything else in all creation,
will be able to separate us
from the love of God
that is in Christ Jesus
our Lord.

- Romans 8:38-39

I am convinced.

You Aren't Alone
by: Lowanla (me) for my beloved

I don't want you to think you are standing alone
in all of this.

...I'm only sorry I can't be more brave or more courageous
but I am trying to do my best to show you
there is no shame. Its just the fears
we have to get past and I know it takes time.
I always see guys pulling the one they love to hug
them

and then all of a sudden I see that for you and me,
you pull me close to you and I can't help but smile.
I see a lot of things in my heart. I'm so happy
right now even dreaming about it.
I love you.

Don't worry I won't do anything drastic, or
anything.
I just wanted you to know, you are not
alone. That's why I put the pictures up,
so you know I get more brave each day.
Its hard for me too, but I pray for strength
and I have been praying for strength for you too.

I love you.

​

Jesus Christ once said ...

I have come that you might have life and life more abundantly.


I seen that super storm that's suppose to hit the East coast..
I just feel led to pray and rebuke this storm in the name of Jesus Christ
that that those of you will witness the mercy of God, that he is faithful
and that his love endures forever.

He doesn't want people to die...he wants you to live your lives, and your dreams and be filled with Hope.

So if you want to you can agree to pray this prayer with me, Jesus said...
"If two or more are gathered in my name there I am also."
I believe that there is no distance in prayer.

Father God,
we come to you in Jesus name,

In the name of Jesus Christ, we rebuke this storm and command it to be broken and dissipate into
nothing.
We command those flooding waters to dry up now in the name of Jesus Christ,
and we charge your angels to to cover each person's home. In Jesus mighty name we pray.

Thankyou Jesus for the beautiful sunny days ahead we receive them.

Amen

Not A Joke
by: Lowanla (me)

It doesn't matter what anyone says,
or if they mock or make fun of me,

it does matter to me what you think of me, my beloved.
because I trust you, I believe you when
you tell me you love me.

I just needed to be sure that what we
have is not just for show, or a joke,
and you proved to me that it wasn't
a joke or a show,
by humbling yourself and
letting something go for me...and you didn't
even have to do that..

I don't want you to ruin your dreams for me,
you really don't have to,
I just needed to see if you were true,
but when you gave that up for me,
It made me so happy.

It's a big deal to me still. It shows me that
you really do believe in love.

I believe you, I am somewhat overwhelmed
by this act.
you love me.
I believe you.
I am so in love
with you.

I know you are doing your best
I can only ask for your best. I know you are not
perfect. You don't have to be.
You just have to love me, that's all I really want,
is you.

I love you, you always make me happy. <3

Requited Love
by: Lowanla (me) for my beloved

Falling in love I've died who am I?
no one but someone to someone who is dead to themselves,
there is no longer two people but one walking the world alone
with two hearts beating keeping this new body alive.

Can I over love somebody with my words?
what about my actions or even the endless thoughts I think of them day to day?
Yet the thoughts of my beloved are endless thoughts
of love.
I wonder how he is doing? If he is happy, how must
I make this person happy? What could I give
to keep them going. I've become desperate with passion
to see them get through the day.

I've become fascinated by such a creature
who has delighted my soul with desire
and stirs within my heart a song beat unheard
its our song, beautiful song.

He returns my love with heart shaped clouds that fog my mind,
my senses a blazed in chaos by his very touch.
I'm lost in your arms and firmly held securely
I fall asleep and wake up and you are still there
the best feeling in the world, worth waiting for.

from two love sick beings
a beautiful, restless back and forth
slow dance

from a ballad called

Requited Love.
​

"and don't just follow your heart...because your heart can be deceived
but you gotta lead your heart." - Michael Simmons from the Movie Fireproof

Beloved,
in this journey of waiting for you, I pray for you, I have often wondered if I was
right in doing this, but it has been God who has always given me the loving words to say to you.
He has always given me signs and words of wisdom and knowledge from people who have no
idea about us. That is how I know its God. That is how I know this is divinely appointed,
That is how I know it is worth it. That is how I know God has heard your heart.

Many have tried to tell me I was wrong in believing in my dreams. You are my dream.
God has told me to keep believing so I do, he gives me strength to believe.

So In Faith I Lead My Heart, to Wait For You.

When we are together its going to blessed by God, beyond what we could ever have hoped to imagine,
you'll see.

I just want to let you know that. I wait for you, love.

I love you,

*note* I know a lot of people put this movie down, but it has a lot of good points about
what makes a marriage work, I like this movie, Fireproof. <3

Love Sleep
by: Lowanla

If only I could sleep forever
would I not wake up to face the day
oh but the day calls me forth
life is hungry, wants to move about,
Just want to keep sleeping

Its day time,

One day I won't have to keep
sleeping to be near my love
if only I could live with my love
forever.

life is calling from dream to reality,
my love makes me want to keep living.

Its day time,

and I will no longer be dreaming
but with my love.

and we will no longer be sleeping
but we will finally be living.

Storm
by: Lowanla

Sword in hand
cutting throw she slices through
the wicked destroyer
death to the storm
it is as nothing.

Peace be still.

​

Sigh...I hate storms, this is depressing,
I wonder if those people on the East coast are okay..
I prayed for them. ​

Need You
by: Lowanla (me)

O man
where are you?
Why do you hide your face from me
love stirs in your heart yet you are distant
you were once close so passionately
and now you are hidden in the trees

I've come to expect your constant company
My arms are open wide to you
Do you not realize the love
I feel so strongly for you?
How I burn, I ache, I long, I need,
I desire, I groan, I sigh, alone.

I feel your need for my comfort
How I need your comfort
what could I do to make you happy?
What must I do to put your heart at ease?

So run to me
my arms open waiting
so that we can once again be reconciled
In Love completely satisfied
how can I not need you?
I feel you, I love you
be with me

​

Anything
by: Lowanla (me) for my beloved

Anything you ask for I will say yes
what would make you happy?
Anything that makes you smile
what is my life my love but your prize,
I only dream of making you happy
anything, anything, anything

​

I am not sure who said this but:

"Thoughts are like birds swarming around your head, sometimes they land
in your hair, some birds are good, some birds are bad. That doesn't mean you
have to allow them to build a nest, and lay eggs on your head." - quote unknown


(This is a quote I've been dwelling on for quite some time, I realize we are allowed to control what we think
with our thoughts. Because we were created with a brain to think for ourselves. If we want to be afraid, angry, or at peace. We dwell on the thoughts of anger, unforgiveness, or thoughts of when we were the most happy. )

We can either choose to keep a thought or throw it away. I am someone who has problems with thoughts that are tormenting (I have this hinting suspicion I suffer from ADHD) How I've learned to deal with these thoughts is literally have to tell myself I refuse to think that thought ( had to tell that to myself more than 5 times and its a struggle), and I'd battle with that thought till it went away. I'd replace it with a lovely thought. It works for me.

​

Slain
by: Lowanla (me)

Falling upon a dagger aptly named LoVe
it pierces straight and true into my chest
right through my once beating heart.
I have been slain and now bleed out
the blood that once flowed Pride,
Fear, religion, and myself.
It pours out to the streets into the gutters
never to be seen again.

O heart fail me not
be straight and true
let me find a way
to see my love.

O heart give me courage,
and wisdom to be good to you.

O love, O love, O love
my love

Let me love you the way you
want to be loved.

Live Like That
Lyrics by: Sidewalk Prophets

Sometimes I think
What will people say of me
When I'm only just a memory
When I'm home where my soul belongs

Was I love?
When no one else would show up
Was I Jesus to the least of us?
Was my worship more than just a song?

I want to live like that
And give it all I have
So that everything I say and do
Points to You

If love is who I am
Then this is where I'll stand
Recklessly abandoned
Never holding back

I want to live like that
I want to live like that

Am I proof
That You are who you say You are
That grace can really change a heart
Do I live like Your love is true

People pass
And even if they don't know my name
Is there evidence that I've been changed
When they see me, do they see You?

I want to live like that
And give it all I have
So that everything I say and do
Points to You

If love is who I am
Then this is where I'll stand
Recklessly abandoned
Never holding back

I want to live like that
I want to live like that

I want to show the world the love You gave for me
I'm longing for the world to know the glory of the King

I want to live like that
And give it all I have
So that everything I say and do
Points to You

If love is who I am
Then this is where I'll stand
Recklessly abandoned
Never holding back

I want to live like that
I want to live like that
