Afterthoughts: Higher Vibrations

To float amongst the stars

Upon nightfall’s beautiful appearance

Is a feeling like no other.

Night’s shade can mask the day’s troubles

And transform darkness to light.

With head held high And prominent strut,

There’s a beating heart in sync with night’s rhythm.

Every note has the heart and mind in awe.

Every beat speaks of greatness and resiliency.

Sweet melodies written across the sky telling stories left untold.

Night’s shade has awakened the senses

Allowing the body to rise amongst higher vibrations.

Golden

Golden.

A monumental time

For a monumental age.

No celebratory bang.

Not one for playing charades.

Just wrapped in love

Amongst the days delight.

Gratitude ever flowing

As my inner light shines bright.

No need to utter words

Because my actions speak loud.

The reflection I see daily

Is one that I am proud.

50 years of life

With twists and turns

And lessons learned.

Ready for what the Universe unfolds before me now.

Golden.

Numb

Numb from the hurt and pain.

Numb from the target on my head.

Wondering what enemies want to gain?

Shameful to think, “What if I’m next?”

Racism is to blame

For me wondering, if soon,  people will say my name?

But onward I MUST and WILL go.

Could It Be

On Freedom: “No price is too high to pay for the priviledge of owning yourself.” – Nietzsche

Could it be that I know heaven?
Embraced in your strong hold,
Thoughts of a world unknown
Of a feeling never felt.

Making me think.
You teach me.
Words spoken from your tongue of gold.
You amaze me.
Making me smile.
Into your eyes, I gaze.
You make my heart feel safe
Whenever you’re around me.

Could it be that you’re my heaven?
A place that I’ve longed for.
A place where I can tear down my walls,
And open my arms and embrace it all.
