My Father, My Abraham


“As Young as a Seed”
You loved me indeed
With just one hold
I never felt cold

My Father, My Abraham...
You made me the man that I am
If only the skies weren’t so far
I’ll reach up and buy you a star

My Father, My Abraham...
From you I came
With mother I was made
Like you told me I was a hand full
But now I’m strong enough to carry you

My Father, My Abraham...
Taking my first step
With ever running tears
You still held my hand
Even till I said my first words

My Father, My Abraham...
Never will I break your heart
Your love evolves without a fright
I cry when you hold mother and make things right

My Father, My Abraham...
When I’m left in the world alone
Still I hear your humble tone
Makes me remember the warmth of home
Never forgetting, you will always be my hero

My Father, My Abraham...
Thank you for all, I really must go
There is a boy that I call my own
Promise to raise him just as you’ve shown
Cleaning up his wounds, and bringing joy to his soul

My Father, My Abraham...
Forever our love
Till I get old
Brighter than ever
As toned as Gold...

Yours Truly,
Helga.

HAPPY FATHERS DAY :)

Single Failure, Multiple Treasures

she stumbled and fell, in the midst of her peers... They laughed and stared, as she struggled to raise her head ... They murmur and whisper Oh what a shameful picture She can’t rise up and face her fear Not even worthy enough to raise a cheer. She is a failure, can never be treasured She was as bright as gold, but never dared to be bold She is a hidden pearl, never broke out of her shell She is good for nothing... matter of fact she will never stand to be something. Tears rained down her eyes  She hated these lies Single lies without a worthy price She stood up with FIRE and yelled... LIAR. I am something, the Lord created me to be something I am a shining star, the Lord has brought me this far I have risen up; the Lord has filled my cup I fear nothing; the Lord has showered me with his blessing I am not a hidden pearl; I am his chosen girl. Her confidence created desire, desire to be like her Who is your Lord?  May we pl...

Introspection

"Honestly, I am not the Holiest; neither am I rebellious, I can say I'm in-between but is that really good enough? Sometimes I pray and sometimes I partay lol, I guess my prayers will compensate for my wasted Fridays… and later forgive me for the prospects of further days…... right? Well I'm guessing… Don't get me wrong, I'm not a bad person; I go to church on Sundays and try paying my tithes… Hum... It's 10% of your income right? Yea I think I only give like 5… Who cares! only I know what’s inside... but ay! I still gave something… That's sowing a seed… and don't think I'm smoking weed… C'mon that's too far I'm not into that stuff, It can really mess you up... (not that I know of.. I was actually told of...) Ok let’s get serious… I'm not being Hilarious...  You see, God is the reason for these spoken words, my life hasn't been something to write about... Sometimes I feel as though God doesn’t hear my prayers up there, mayb...

The Beauty Of Life...

A tiny little seed I was Still full of life With so much to give Vibrant As ever Nature is what I am Replaceable? Never!! Nobody knew my worth Couldn’t see what I had inside My outlook, so ordinary Personality, not in the dictionary Dirt was dug in my eyes Water splashed in my face Mud I ate Dogs came and polluted my hidden place How much more can I take? I cry to God every night Begging for His Merciful Light And hoping for a change In my little hole I began to rise With watery eyes As the I see the Sun Shine Looking down, I saw my shadow Confused but not shallow Woke up one morning with huge foot steps I was afraid, my face turned yellow Who are these creatures? I wondered as they came closer Big giants speaking some form of gibberish I didn’t move an inch, only the wind made me blink Closer they came and grabbed me by the neck "What the heck! I am innocent" I screamed But they couldn’t understand me when I spoke BOOM!! Stuck in a dark room I couldn’t breath I bega...
