God has blessed me to be here! Thank you Lord for all that you have done for me and all that your doing for me and for all that you are going to do for me! Thank you Lord in Jesus name I pray, Amen. I've been blessed with a different perspective in how I see and interpret things. I'm curious and inquisitive with a strong desire for wisdom and knowledge. I love a good book but a good conversation soothes my soul. I've had to overcome many obstacles to exist in a world I've never known.

We laugh and have fun
We enjoy her...

Don’t wake up black in America
If you do you in trouble
From A to Z
From head to feet
Your ancestors drop their heads in shame
Don’t wake up black in America
For everything wrong you’re to blame
They still hate us and it’s twenty,...

What is faith he asked

He called on my birthday
We talked for a while
It was good to hear his voice
It made me smile
In the conversation
He asked what is faith
He seemed to be confused
He’s a soldier that’s received bad news
It’s hope I replied in the...

Didn’t think I’d see today

The minutes seemed like hours
The hours seemed like days
Last night was so horrible I didn’t think I’d see today
My guilt my sin toss me
I’m a ship in the ocean
I congregated with a witch and drank her potion
Is it poison
My insides erupt ...
