My First Date

12a.m, Jan 1^st 2013

I’ll remember this date always,

Cos it was the day I had my first date with Him

The date of the crossover to my Passover.

When all was silent, His voice was resplendent

“Be still, and know I’m God’

And so I heeded to the one, my heart I'd seeded

into his care, casting my worries in his lair.

The combination which unlock access into his safe…ty

“I love you” it translates in words

I’m with you, though you will doubt

and you’ll be tempted to go another route

Just stay strong, the world will tell you wrong

“Curse him” he has abandoned you

with no manna after the dew.

I’m the giver of all things new

all I require is your allegiance to bring about your renaissance

And so I surrendered like a captive but receptive of my captor’s advances

Looping his strength with mine, cos Him alone is thine

And so I waited… 

Days dragged on and the time crept along slow

mocking my resolve to evolve.

But I serve the author of time itself

Him whom is infinite in majesty himself

Who spoke of my travail and is confident I’ll prevail

So why should I fear that leaving all behind will bring nothing but tear

And so I waited…

more than the watchman waits

Ready to eat of the meal from the table he’ll set before all

to see that my cup runneth over with his goodness never small

and when it was time… time felt shame

for the name calling and blame game

cos now, I’m the most sought after

my mouth full with rejoicing and  laughter

His words are being fulfilled right here on this earth

the promises he made on that first night…dousing my fear with tender care

reminding me he is Lord, my shepherd

of this I testify…that

I’m a testimony of his unselfish alimony

To all his children

Cos he wrapped me so tight, I suffocated from his hug

He’s my hommie, I’m his thug
