Love Found A Home

Love Found A Home

A poem by MK Douglas                      Copyright © 2011

Love has found a home.  A place where it can thrive and grow.
It moves around and roams.  Hate stares and stands outside the window
Hoping that Love will get evicted and be forced to move out of town
and then sinfully joke with the wicked and rejoice to the groove and sound
of a home where there is no Love.  This is the ultimate goal of selfish sin.
We're shown to care and share from Above.  His wisdom in our souls will help us win
against the selfishness of pleasing me and only me, which is tearing our world apart
We should all help this with not ceasing being on our knees
bearing one another in our hearts

A Sad Day At The Park.

A Sad Day At The Park

A poem by MK Douglas                      Copyright © 2011

What a pretty day it was as I relaxed on a city park bench
Thinking if it was any way to get a snap of a swifty dark finch
Then out of the blue a car pulls up and a crying lady gets out
The car spins around and zooms off to where no whining baby is aloud
I noticed the lady in pumps had hate in her eyes as she glanced at the bmw
The look made me jump as I waited to decide to say "Sorry to see him trouble you."
She sat down near me and cried so hard.  I knew it was about her pregnancy
Her fat round belly wasn't hiding no part. Eyes glued on it poking out next to me.
I tried to comfort her with the words and wisdom of a completely total stranger
Christ's love for her will heal the hurts and gives them the victory over anger
I then began to walk away and look above at Whom I forever believed
Not ever knowing if the talk that day about His love was ever received.

Traveling Down The Road Of Life

Traveling Down The Road Of Life

A poem by MK Douglas                           Copyright © 2011

Iv'e been traveling down a road to find life's true meaning
And when I'm having it found I hope that I'm not through dreaming
about that great and glorious day when it finally comes together
And how I stayed on the course and waited for my time to see some pleasure
But before that day will happen there's more tests to overcome
Just more bad days and no laughing.  I won't dare forget to hold my tongue.
As the days, months, and years go by I pray that I don't live in vain
I have to pay my dues this once in tears that won't forgive my sin's pain
At my life's end, I will get to heaven.  I will live like a holy person.
If I reject Christ then it will be nine eleven.  Everything will totally worsen.
When I arrive at the gates of glory I will cry with exceeding joy
because the devil I hate tried to end my story and wanted to see me destroyed
So in this life I will stay on the road which is the straight and narrow one
As fast as the nights and the days will go my faith is in the hands of God's Son.

The Focus Of My Mind

The Focus Of My Mind

A poem by MK Douglas                      Copyright © 2011

I try to keep my mind focused on the good things ahead
I find it deep that God chose me to think that way instead
of constantly freaking out on the fears from the past
that keep haunting me and seeking how to get tears running fast
They sometimes come from out of nowhere and attack my lowly mind
And then Love finds someone who cares to help me put the past behind
As this person tells me to discipline the bad thoughts in my head
I was glad the curse on me fell as I listened to what he said
Can I move forward not fearing to go into rewind?
Love will use the sword of God clearing what's going through my mind.

Bound By A Prison Of Hate

Bound By A Prison Of Hate              

A poem by MK Douglas                     Copyright © 2011

I've been to a place where nobody would care to go
A prison of the mind with tall walls like Jericho

You would never know why I'm there by such a plain appearance
Not letting love inside is the reason why all the hate would gain clearance

It had me hating everyone under the sun and no way was I getting parole
My cold heart was decaying and greying while all the delaying
had fun with my regretting poor soul

My prison cell was pure hell as far as I can tell
I had to find a fast way to break free
Gangs of hate would creep behind and take hold of my wounded mind
I had to make it their last day to rape me

I finally ran out from it all and this is how
those stupid walls of hate came falling down
The love of God healed my heart and tore those walls of hate apart
You'd say it's a miracle if you saw me now

The State Of My Heart

The State Of My Heart

A Poem by MK Douglas                Copyright © 2011

As the state of my heart sits in an incubation period
I really hate why I didn't start to take this revelation serious
A deep wound vexed my soul as I was sent to emergency
It will be very soon when this cold dent stops hurting me
I allowed the words of a hater to penetrate within me
And how absurd it was later when I meditated sinfully
As I imagined bad things on those who did me wrong
The devil happened to be laughing at me all along
So I said to myself "Should I stay this way?"  God forbid.
Conviction I felt.  I better pray today.  I've got to forgive.

The Long Gone Sad Love Song

The Long Gone Sad Love Song

A poem by MK Douglas               Copyright © 2011

I'm glad to tell you about how my life has changed
After the hell I went through in spite of the pain
My heart fully recovered from the hurt and the tears
No longer part of a bully lover quoting dirt that we hear
Oh how great it feels to have a squeaky clean beginning
Instead of a hated meal that leaves me mean and sinning
My trust is restored and my love is revived
Because justice soars real high above in my life
The sad song is long gone which I gladly gave to the Lord
Who slew the bad and the wrong with the blade of His mighty sword.
