Valentines Special (It’s Not Fair.)

It’s not fair, you made me fall in love with you.It’s not fair, I’ve done all I can do.It’s not fair, you stole my heart.It’s not fair, cupid shot a dart.It’s not fair, I’ll tell you!It’s not fair that I should fall in love with you.It’s not fair.It’s not fair! BY R.D. JESS

CHANGE OF VIEW

You have the kindest eyes I’ve ever seen.I’m used to them being so mean.But when I look at yours.I see Love that endures.When did you become so mature?Your words seem so sure.Why do you look like a man?I have to say I’m a fan.The more I’m around you,I’m overwhelmed by the change of view. -r.d.jess-

No, Not Again

No, not again! No, Not another man. The flex and flowOf all that I know.I thought I was still But the battle could kill.I don’t want you,I wish that was true.I’m moving onIs that wrong?One glimpse and I’m falling,High hopes left me balling.No, Not again!Falling in love with a man.Back and forth, my head hurts.Emotions began to burst.CanContinue reading “No, Not Again”

I REST MY SOUL

I rest my soul in a loving God.Knowing one day my pain will be gone.For every mile walked in the valley,A thousand more among the lilies.My soul does trust Him.Faithful he has always been.When suffering left me questioning.My assurance was purifying -R.D. Jess-

COME FIND ME

I drown my sorrows in a cup of tea. Late nights filled me with tears, I couldn’t see.Run to my comforter, Praying for comfort.I could not run to another human being,For they always left me seething.Is there no more compassion?Man lives for their prideful passions. Come find me, my king.Come find me, before sin captures me.Continue reading “COME FIND ME”

Twas Sweet

I remember what was sweet.I remember you and me.Our relationship could not be beat.For it twas sweet.Yet years made me weak.Fighting always to please.It became a game of knowing everything.Perfection became a need.Childlike faith became obsolete. I remember it twas sweet.Please return to me.Find me under the tree.Where we used to meet.God I want to believe,ThatContinue reading “Twas Sweet”

Psalm 77

Will the Lord be favorable again? Or has all of this come to an end? Has your loving kindness ceased its endeavor? Has your promises ended forever? My soul refuses to be comforted. My life feels throated. But I will remember the goodness of the Lord. For he has given me so much more. MyContinue reading “Psalm 77”

When I was scared

When I was scared you held my hand, Until I found the brighter land.When I cried at night,You held me tight.When I thought it was over,You helped me recover.When I was alone,You walked me home.And all of this to say,You heard what I prayed.What a loving God you are.To stay when things get hard.For meContinue reading “When I was scared”

THE GREATEST GIFT

What a gift I’ve been given.The little child wrapped in linen.The babe in a manger,Is no longer a stranger.But the greatest gift I’ve been given,Is for love incarnate to say I’m forgiven. R.D. Jess

HANG THE LIGHTS

Hang the lights on the tree, blinking in a steady stream.sounds of the holiday sings, a little baby dreams.Lattes topped with foam, Carlos sung all the way home.Look past all the fun traditions and all these feel good situations.Christmas is so much more, when you realize you are forgiven and adored.Joy comes when you hangContinue reading “HANG THE LIGHTS”
