I am not innocent by: e.l.

I took a plea
I admitted my guilt
Even in the lies they built!
Can you see
was my deal just?
Should my judgement be one to discuss?
I say No!
My crimes was real
even if it wasn't the ones in the deal.
I was a bad bro.
In faith, a husband, a dad, a lover,
I failed in appreciating what we had in each other!
I cut my support
for drugs and sports.
Seeking a fame,
being a lame,
when I had a family!
For That!!!!!!!

I'm so ashamed of me...
I terrorized the lives of all
because I felt small
empty inside
and chaotically lost.
"Me! Captain filled with pride!"
I am not Innocent!
I did my crimes!
Beyond the ones from which I signed!
From which they seen
and for what they don't.
But your no different!
So let us say see.
We! (back hand slap emoji, sad face emoji)
#pimpdown (Angel emoji)
#youtoo "I see you." ( lightning strike emoji, Bible emoji)
"I know what you did that summer looking face, but wasn't caught, don't look at me face, looking guilty around the eyes mother sucker face looking..."
(Lol emoji)
three dollars and sixty cent (dollar sign)
Humble
and
Kind.
But we are not Innocent?

the emotion of love by: e.l.

Agape, a form of love I am all too familiar with. If I was to specify a time I felt agape I would go on and on through the course of my entire life. It's that feeling of agape that makes me disappointed in us as a race. I know we aren't meant to always agree and there is no spark without the positive and negative energies. It’s just my insanity of wanting life to be one sided and full of only agape.
 
The religious books speak of a day it will end and all will see the truths of our existence. The books speak of a clear divide, those full of agape and those who aren't. I believe in this day, and from it I found peace, but in it there is also discomfort. This discomfort is where I find myself numbed by mind altering substances. We don't know who is loving and who isn't and so in fear of disappointment I numb myself.

If only people felt this form of love, and sought after it, just as the books say we should. Forever striving for the service of agape itself. "He that loves not knows not God for God is Love." (1John 4:8)
 
Unconditional, understanding, selfless, and unencumbered by outside sources. Agape removes fears and doubts, bringing comfort to your spirit. Something as simple as the rain we take for granted, the rain that waters our farms, that feed us, and the animals we eat. Agape can always be seen because the sun returns after night to ensure crops grow and flowers in our gardens bloom before they wither.
 
Agape is real and it's something I always feel.

what must one do? by: e.l.

What must one do to bring peace to this life
the freedom of all insecurities, doubts and fears.
The peace from all desires but one
To fulfil the purpose given by the creator.
What must one do to be without hatred anger and misunderstanding
finding joy in the pleasure of just coexisting
I removed my craving for replication
and increase my need for education
diminishing the spread of ignorance
confirming life's divine innocence.
What must one do to see its wave.
That energy flowing before the grave
and after that we eternally stay
Then glow like the stars both night and day.
What must one do?
Pray?

nostalgia by: e.l.

I grew a garden in my mother’s back yard, within in it was a L for my last name. The L was beautified with white dwarf fawns and morning glories that bloomed at their due time, purple, white and full of life. Mini cherry red tomatoes, plump pumpkins, big yellow sunflowers, succulent strawberries, sweet corn, mint, assorted roses and peaceful bees, that pollinated our honey sickles. This skill was later used to grow marijuana, woe oh woe to some things we learn.
 
I have a memory of places of light, peace and tranquility. Like silk to touch but deeper into the oneness of the realm. A garden of peace, perfection, and no exhaustion. My home, full of gold, precious gems, exotic fruits, and advanced wisdom. I only recently opened the religious books and found that my vision was exact. The religious books depict that we were created then placed in a grand garden to cultivate it. We were then removed and placed lower to do the same thing.
 
We all tend to neglect the truth that the Earth itself is a living being a garden that only needs to be weeded. At times like these I don't think about propaganda but feel that it’s just a means of weeding the garden. Man has done their best to destroy what has been provided for us naturally. So I find it only natural that something unnatural destroys us

Don't scream for Elijah
don't panic don't cry
just reach for Allah
One God One Lord
Father of All
Above All
quoted from His word
Basic instructions
Guides
Big B
Surely I wouldn't lead you
But to connect
fathers to son
and daughter to mother
Connect together
Sulah with peace
