Infiltrated

( ENIGMATIC MAHOGANY )

Discarded

Thrown away

Hurt

Damaged Goods

Words describing my heart for so very long

After all that I had experienced love was not a part of the equation

Just me and my babies no additions wanted

Heart walls built as high as the heaven's sky

That was until the day you knocked upon my door

And God placed the blessing of no other upon me

All I had to do was say yes

I couldn't deny

I could not turn away

From this thing so real

As I continued to try to close myself out

And say this could not be happening for me

You continued

God continued to allow oxygen to be breathed into this thing so real

My heart became infiltrated

The pain

The sorrow

The disappointments

Were all encountered

So that I would know for sure what you were

A man of heart, valor, an Ephesians 5 man

See,

we speak the same language of love

Its words of affirmation that keep us flowing

When you speak

My whole face lights up

Any ill feeling withers away

With you

I breathe

I inhale

I exhale

A calmness comes upon me

I know this thing here caught us by surprise

With each of our tales of pain

Someone else,

Emotions revealed,

Feelings beyond our control

Unexplainable to man

Destined by God

You question where do they make me?

He made me from your rib

I often times question How Did You Get Here

But see I know the answer

God delivered you to me

Special delivery

Don't worry

For I know you shall be handled with care

Hurting you is like hurting myself

With you

You elaborate upon my worth

We complement each other so well

I am your ying

You are my yang

We are equally yolked

Let me be your purple rain

As we celebrate the month of love

I gift to you my heart

I gift to you words of affirmation

Words like I appreciate you

I gift to you quality time

Although our timing has been short

With each passing day I intend to spend with you

I gift to you acts of service

I can't wait to make your dinner

I gift to you physical touch

Praying while holding hands

Thanking the master for this wonderful gift

I gift to you every language of love

Could it be that you are my soul mate?

My unconditional love

You came and made my life new

Took so long to find you

It's in the air

Come and take me there

I waited all day contemplating

Going crazy

Fear is gone now that you got me

We are so in tune

Let's write a musical

Every now and then someone comes along that you don't expect to love

Who can turn your world around

I'm no longer the woman that I used to be

Look at what you did to me

All the stress and pain that I used to feel has gone away

I pray this thing will last the test of time until my dying day

See I am no longer intimidated

For my heart you have infiltrated

( OXIGEN )

In a short time I was forced to reconsider what I know I said

Never again love don't live here just a vacancy

Why waste time when I know I make myself happier than they do I'll be alone instead

Especially when decisions I've made were done impatiently

Heart stepped on so much you can still see traces of the last footprints

Places I used to go with them are forgotten back I haven't looked since

Good friends telling me I'll find love again for me it seemed impossible

Until I felt insight from Gods eyes watching me while they were watching you

Conversation awaking emotions that died and had a burial

I know cause I was there saw my heart in the obituary

Now my heart acquiring feelings for a woman that I barely knew

Jumping leaps and bounds over the woman I had my kid with and Picked to marry

Enigmatic expressions cause they were hard to figure out

How someone could infiltrate walls harder than brinx protection

Told my heart it wasn't getting out & it chose a different route

Connection had me inspired like a gospel choirs a & b selection

Blown away by all your hard work and dedication

When my head pounds from the stress a word from you is medication

So on this day cupids arrow did more than just Pierce the skin

It made sure that what was buried for so long would never disappear again
