Time of prohibition
When people had to seek permission
Whether to take a walk
Depending on the colour of your skin
Many were forbidden to talk
Stories of a different spin
Customary to try to protect your kin
Selling the liquid fire
To warm their bellies
Prohibition lasted 13 years
Instilling many fears

Scaling the walls
Of this high building
Overcoming fears
That have destroyed confidence
Madness edges in and seething
Energy comes & at times stalls
Display of conscience
Unearths the balance
Disturbs deep feelings
Clawing & bleeding on the ascension
Gnawing of the skin
Grated on the rock
Freedom of restrictions
Constant beliefs
Taking stock
Of others constrictions
Held me bound for too long
It's in natures hands
That I belong
~Divine

Inconspicuously standing in the background
Hidden in the shadows
Observing without making a sound
In a protective stance anointed hallows
Misunderstood for so long
A barrage of hate was speared at his heart
Common people judged that he did not belong
He exercised his mind and body
His demeanour proud
Always stood for what was good & sound
Never a part of the crowd
Integrity & honesty as he stood his ground
A true warrior of the realm
Protecting the rightful Queen
For life or death
He vowed his protection would remain unseen

Foraging into the land of mistakes
Evidence proved how we jump to conclusions
Particularly when there is so much stake
Blustering in the constant confusion
Words are just words
As we know actions speak louder
Being able to distinguish between
Truth and lies
~Divine

Sometimes it's just too hard to breathe
Feeling the pressure of daily life
Pulling that knife out of its sheath
Capturing your reflection off of the steel
Needing to cut out all the wicked heavy strife
Heaviness pulls you down
Forcing you to feel numb, but to feel
Who will care for the falling
Listen to the quiet screams
Baby steps of change stalling
Each of those broken dreams
~Divine

Subturfuge compelling all my achievements
Guiding people through their bereavement
Only to discover Years from now
Their embarrassment uncovering their Fake vow
Broken steps to watch them falter
Spinning in cycles keeps them off kilter
Shameful disguises parts of you despises
Superficial have been all your masks
Grateful to supplied all the tasks
Freedom has been released
Gone faster than your deceased
Regard the poof of smoke
As your last token
~Divine

Forgive
For peace of mind
Move forward in time
Forgive
Not forget can be a fallacy
Strength to resolve
Let it all dissolve
In the vast wasteland
Forgive
Them and mostly you
Disintegrate all they communicate
To keep you tied to them my dear
Best not to keep them near
Forgive
As you forge ahead
Getting rid of the dead
Weight
Abundance is for all
Taking command
Heeding your call
Forgive you
Mostly I
Who thought you were a friend
Truthfully
A fiend too the end
Forgive me
For believing
All your fabricated truths
Well spoken lies
Forgiveness
Forgiveness
Forgiveness
Repeating thrice
Scatters any spells
**** through
That heart
That was really
Ice

Cold blood runs through your veins
Vascillating, a professional whiffler
One day you're hot, the next you're not
A man of passion
Androgynously in stockinged fashion
Tearing away at all vestiges
Of any sign of integrity
God provides obstacles
Thankful Serenity
Our entire claim of friendship
Decimated
With one push
Of a button
Good bye
~Divine

Danger
Red lights alerting
Buzzards loud
Beeping screeching
All elements are screaming
To be circumspect
Attentive in emergency
Quick is the sense of urgency
To save
Even one life
Grateful to all who serve & protect
May God Bless you always
~Divine

When someone deigns to hurt
The ones I love
The first instinct is to take revenge
Realizing the subliminal need
To suppress & delete
It goes against the greater deed
Of activating forgiveness
To elevate the importance of love
Spreading love destroying hate
Eliminate the need to avenge
Of late
Great gift from GOD
Quickly
Swiftly
Forgive
Move forward to the furtive LOVE
~Divine

Listening
To your whispers
Calling my name
Watching
Lithe powerful body
Walking towards me
It feels the same
Noticing
Your blue eyes sparkling
Mischievous is the devilish glint
You love this cat & mouse game
Touching
Your clean shaven face
As your lips claim mine
Each kiss never quite the same
Smelling
Your unique manly scent
Pheromones appealing
Stealth like panther
Passions ascent is stealing
Lived to tell
Our different stories
Through time and space
Eons to several life spans
This one just began
~Divine

The ache in my heart immense
Tears can't stop spilling
Streams cascading down my face
Into my lap
Raw feeling of my throat
Screams escaping it making it hurt
Whole body is wracking with pain
Having such a difficult time
Convincing my brain
That you're on the other side
Tonight I'm lost
Which way to go
Is obscured by the heavy snow
Tired of the battle
Keeping a smile etched
To make others feel better
They rely on me
The go getter
Tonight I just want to curl
Into a tight bunch
Fatigue has set in
Down to the last crunch
Getting under the covers
Just to sleep in
~Divine

Fireplace the wood is crackling
Flames are dancing creating smoke
Wrapping the blankets settling
Comfortably in the armchair
Enjoying the warmth with ease
Releasing worries with care
Tired of others constant meddling
Soothing are the flames
Looking at bright flare
Images startle me as I stare
~Divine

I'm listening
The tone and the words do not unite
It's discombobulated
As you're forcing
It's formulated
Well thought out
Every obstacle
Thrilled it came about
I've been Compartmentalized
Grateful for the decisive moment
Bonked on the head
Finally realized
Lies
Lies
Lies

The snow is floating down from the sky
Each unique flake seems billowy
A fresh blanket has covered the streets
Shovelling in the city becomes a meet and greet
Bundled up in layers upon layers
Thick socks in waterproof boots
Don't care what say the naysayers
Snow helps annuals right down to the roots
We've been lucky so far this year
Many are installing snow tires out of fear
One of the mildest winters in the last decade
I smile for when it snows
It's great to see people coming to each other's aid
Blanket of snow
Equals a blanket of kindness
~Divine
