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

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
Come join me at the Local Authors Showcase on April 27th at the Racine Public Library!
Love always, Ayesha

There you are shinning
Like free sunlight twinkling
I was invited to read poetry by Gwendolyn Brooks for a Black History event at Racine Public Library. I hope you enjoy.
Love, Esha
What is poetry to me?
It is love
And everything in-between
Whether it is two heart forever intertwined
Or a neck colliding with a bee sting
It equates to so much
But at the same time it feels like nothing
It unravels me like a rope
With dangling cords
It's flies high like eagles
It midday soars
It lives in a kiss
Till breath falls short
And it breaths no more
No matter the cause
It exists to be adored
Poetry is something worth fighting for
Because it is and has always been my love
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

Outside
don't want to be outside in the winter time
The roof is solid
The heated water is on
The walls know many secrets
But tell no tales
The frost is ice cold
The chill is beautiful
As it changes the warm air to fog
Still I stoke the fire by throwing logs

The feeling dissipates
But I still remember the warmth
I still crave the moment
Looking for the next opportunity
Safe from harm
To be well thought of
And loved in return
Yearning and turning in desolate places
Aching to see and experience friendly faces
Hopefully a day will arrive
And I will be held in an embrace
That makes my lonely years fade away
The feeling dissipates
But I still remember the warmth
I still crave the moment
Choosing isolation
And silent discretion over having a hand to hold
But as of late...
People seek to inspire
For financial gain
With no desire to help people that have lost everything
The truth spreads like wildfire
Like a sore that wasn't treated
Or a friendship
Gone bad
People search the closest inspiration
They can grab
Rarely questioning the sender
And poor intent
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
Self help, motivational speech and guru's
Linked up with the who's who
Fail to address the problem
And churches devoid of pay per view miracles
For something that will feed the soul

It starts off small
A flame
That the cold, wind and rain
Can't extinguish
Questions follow:
Can I be redeemed?
Does Christ love me?
Is faith enough?
Maintained by hope
Nourished by the pages of a Bible
That are ever turning
But to believe
Your growth is tied up in learning
And yearning for the grace of God
He will pick you up
The Holy Ghost will comfort you
And Jesus will clean your wounds
You are not abandoned
And most importantly you are not forgotten
You are the sheep that the Shepard refused to leave behind
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
It starts off small
A flame
That the cold, wind and rain
Can't extinguish
Then it grows

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

Peace, ease, laughter and hope
The beautiful of the moment
And the time to cope
Surrounded and wrapped in dreams
That knows no bounds
Prayers sent to heaven
From quivering lips, dripping in hope
And answered with love
For once to know my tears, struggles and triumph
Are well thought of
I was fashioned and designed for a special reason
While I thought Jesus didn't care about my pain...
He was just waiting for me
To enter the right season
Love always, Esha
