Short poem: Come Home

Image by DyeAnnaBee from Pixabay

 








Here's the key 

I promise the door is always open 

My mind is disappointed 

But my heart is hoping 

I nearly gave up on searching 

Till I picked up the pieces that were broken 

All the while I pray that you come home



Please like, comment, follow and share. It makes all the difference in the world to me.


Love always, Ayesha

Song of Praise

 

Image by J F from Pixabay








We were close before 

But distance came between us 

Yes the feeling of love wouldn't leave us 

And prayer lead us closer to a warm embrace 

Before I knew you through a shallow lens 

Know I recognize your face 

You are the other half I never knew I needed 

When others fail to understand 

We are in agreement 

Jesus is our base 

And our foundation is strong 

The second around with praise as our song 



Love always, Ayesha

Running Mind

Image by Bernd from Pixabay


The bell rings 

The curtain closes 

The owl hoots 

The alarm chimes 

The time has come 

My day is done 

But there is no stop 

To a running mind 



Love always, Esha  <3

Daybreak Haiku

There you are shinning 

Like free sunlight twinkling 

Over orange daybreak

Always

We don't need to look for love 

Running in circles for a connection that's already there 

Chasing down relationship 

When Jesus always cared 

Looking to experience temporary feelings 

When you need something to last an eternity 

Cheeks previously stained by tears 

Seek soft kisses that rarely stay 

Tender for a moment 

Only to go away 

We all need a love that will last forever 

And always 


Till Next Time, Esha

Bold Heart

Image by efes from Pixabay


The feeling dissipates

But I still remember the warmth 

I still crave the moment 

Looking for the next opportunity 

To be gathered up in caring arms 


To be told that I will be kept 

Safe from harm 

To be well thought of 

And loved in return 


My heart awaits the chance of exchanging the courtesy  

Yearning and turning in desolate places 

Aching to see and experience friendly faces 

Hopefully a day will arrive 


Someone's eyes will catch me by surprise 

And I will be held in an embrace 

That makes my lonely years fade away 

That gives me emotions that are here to stay 


The feeling dissipates

But I still remember the warmth 

I still crave the moment 

Looking for the next opportunity... 

To receive a long, awe-inspiring hug 


I use to run from intimacy 

Choosing isolation 

And silent discretion over having a hand to hold  

But as of late... 

My heart has grown bold 




Love always, Esha

Empty Heart

 



People seek to inspire 

For financial gain 

With no desire to help people that have lost everything 

The truth spreads like wildfire 


But lies run sour 

Like a sore that wasn't treated 

Or a friendship 

Gone bad 


In these days of hits and misses 

People search the closest inspiration 

They can grab 

Rarely questioning the sender 

And poor intent 


We all gotta eat 

But surviving off fake cures should never pay the rent 

A couple days go by and the quick money 

Is past the point of spent 


But what about the person in need 

Self help, motivational speech and guru's 

Linked up with the who's who 

Fail to address the problem 


Turn to the Bible 

And churches devoid of pay per view miracles  

For something that will feed the soul 

Everyone is seeking something that an empty heart can hold 




Love always, Esha 

Inspirational: Small Flame

Image by Andreas Lischka from Pixabay 


It starts off small 

A flame 

That the cold, wind and rain 

Can't extinguish 

Then it grows 

Questions follow: 

Can I be redeemed? 

Does Christ love me? 

Is faith enough? 

What is love? 


It can be kindled by prayer 

Maintained by hope 

Nourished by the pages of a Bible 

That are ever turning 


You lose some battles and win some 

But to believe 

Your growth is tied up in learning 

And yearning for the grace of God 


No matter how hard you fall 

He will pick you up 

The Holy Ghost will comfort you 

And Jesus will clean your wounds 


You are not alone 

You are not abandoned 

And most importantly you are not forgotten 

You are the sheep that the Shepard refused to leave behind 


Every hair on your head counted

Every need you have supplied 

You will have a friend in Jesus for the rest of your life 

So when the world resents you 

And casts you aside... 

Just know that you are aided by the King of Kings 

And you shall live and not die 


It starts off small 

A flame 

That the cold, wind and rain 

Can't extinguish 

Then it grows 




Love always, Esha

Missing

Photo by mododeolhar


He’s missing again

NO calls

NO text

Only emptiness

Hangs in the void

He’s been MIA


Since he was a little boy

Days turned to nights

And nights turned to days

Weeks at a time combined into months

Months turned into years


Sometimes, I would look for him

In the highways and byways

Of cities to big for me to search alone

Leaving the comfort of my bed

To bring my long lost sibling back home


Even after all these years…

I’ll still look for you

Walking through mud, hiding behind staircases

Checking bus stops that never end,

Newspaper articles and old friends

And when looking is not enough…


I cling to the only safety I know

I’ll pray for your safe return

Holding a Bible with torn pages in shaking hands

Hoping for a miracle in no man’s land

Knowing in my fluttering heart that I’ll see you again




Love always, Esha

Eagle

Image by Torben Stroem from Pixabay 








Bright green grass bends with ease and grace  

Latching on to the qualms of the day 

Swaying with the embrace of the wind 

Cool desires drench happy blades with ease 


The brown, hard soil cracks underfoot 

Meanwhile, aged, off-white feathers grip the open air 

Catching the warmth of endless sunlight 

Boundaries of earth melt away here 


Let the blue sky spread out before you 

Scale the height of it 

Take in the baby blue majesty

Live in the moment 

Shape your body effortlessly to flow in it 


Feel the passive breath lifting you higher and higher 

Now is the beginning of a new tomorrow 

Live for today 

Plan for the future you are unable to see 


Be eager in flight 

Sailing and soaring to unseen destinations 

In territories that curious souls dare to know  

Faith will take you to places 

That fear never will 



Love always, Esha

Pencils

Start over, fix things that are out of place, correct the things that left you broken. Pencils have erasers for a reason. Don't be afraid to use them. Love always, Esha

Blossom

Hope is the seed planted that grew into a tree that few expected to blossom. But now it provides fruit and comfort to all those who need a safe space to unwind.

Small Victories

 
Take the time to put the work in. People may not see it. Those who do may not respect it. But in the end your blood, sweat and tears will pay off. Because hard work is its own reward and the skills you cultivate from perfecting your craft will mean more than an easy road to success. The beautiful of life is in the journey. Enjoy the small victories. 



Love always, Esha

The storm won’t last

You will prevail
