Just Wanna Be Like Him

-

Just wanna be like Him.
He knows how to speak the Truth.
He knows how to be the Truth.
He is the Light to my journey.
He is the Way my journey takes.
He is the Life I breathe
And keeps me on the move.

Not so perfect as He.
Nowhere near as He.
It is plain to see.
My imperfections are all over me.
Like a lepercy
In the way I move.
In the words I use.
In the way my eyes see the world.

My conscious intentionality,
---The focus of my existence---
Wavers on and off of Him.
From day to day.
From moment to moment.
Everytime its off, I sin.
Everytime, I just can't win!

Still I just wanna be like Him.
Something about the way he moves my heart.
My soul takes a leap.
Knowing I'm one of His rational sheep.
He'll not leave me stranded and open
Even if I was the only one in the face
  of wolves, snakes and dragons.

O Master, have mercy on me and save me from myself.
For I just wanna be like You!

I love the way you move. All swank and cool. I'm a dank fool canvas. I'd like to be you. Let's see who, I can be. I love the way you speak. All soft and sexy. Everything 'bout you is neat. I'm just an entity incomplete. I'd like to be you. Let's see who, I can be. Adoptee chameleon Born to be Apparently, a utilitarian personality. Adoptee chameleon. Born to be Nothing much to see, apparently. Nobody said it would be like thees. All my own history. All blood relatives. I'm a severed twig of my family trees. They said the tree caught fire. From which they saved me. What bald liars! They took me on. An adoptee chameleon. Gill or Jillian? No one could tell. All adoptees seem to be a chameleon. How I love your body.

His Love for Her

Don't leave me here!  Don't you leave me here this way!  What will all my friends say? Who was it that carried me on the bier? Well, will you pray for me? Or can't you wait to see another man, if only you can?  Life with you was never,  the kind I wanted.  You called me "friend" That was after you put an end to our coupling. That was after you had my ring  cut off your finger. I can hear you singing after that. You had your own definition for being a swinger. A woman, free and unattached. Since then we've never been intimate. No matter the many times I had to wait. You would love me  Only by cleaning and laundrying for me. Still you'd never give me a bath. We had a life together you never let last. Don't leave me here!  Don't you leave me here this way!  What will all my friends say?     "She buried him, with his love for her.      She's not so demur."  _________ copyright ©️ 2023 SDKilmer, LLC All Rights Reserved www SDKi
