Bless me with a flow deeper than dark waters
Bless me to obtain joy that will last longer
Let me be mightier than the sword so that I may continue to stand. To be a better mother…friend…daughter…A wise woman.
No longer will I invision myself as a pennyless broken hearted fallen woman
That continuously go down into a never ending bottomless pit….Feeling for something that might catch my fall.Trying to remain calm even though I cant see shit.
Being well aware of my broken record that repeatedly skips. I sometimes give my own self fucked up mind trips of how I am less than. Healing from the nightmare I face time and time again.
For it’s dark…
Forcing to protect myself from being a doubting Thomas. Finding ways to morph myself into the slogan of….”to keep on keeping on”. Steering clear of anxiety or panic. I’m in search of a life filled with promise….Of paradise after the gloom and doom.
That’s how I feel sometimes at certain parts of my day
It always happens when I dont have an answer to my problems. Expecially if a conclusion has failed to come soon.
Thus…I continue to pray…At the glow of the full goddess moon.
Bless me with a flow deeper than dark waters
Bless me with a power to change my day
Bless me to obtain joy that will last longer
May I be strong enough to stand….
To elevate even when my foundation seems to crumble away.
Courage…be my angel to guide me along.
Keep me from hiding my head under the covers and lay in the bed all day.
I know that if I take one step, the creator will take a mile down mustard seed faith road. Save me from my darkend alley way.
I say these words with power that rings true to my soul throughout the day. To be a better mother…friend….daughter. A wise woman….Ashe!
