Unleashed

Never figured it out
didn't shout it out
wasn't going to go back
to my heart in my hands
waiting for someone to
take it
twist it
shake it
mix it
and serve it back to me
learned the lesson
stopped confessin
about what I could have
should have
would have
done,
so DONE!

My heart beats
flutters
tightens
warns me
it won't be long
heard the prophecy
in God's song

In the meantime...

I write
even when I'm uptight
even when it's night
even in the dark with little light
I write--
don't claim to be right
just know how to preach my insight.

Unleashed the pain within
the past sin
the stuff evil said I wasn't supposed to say...
told to be quiet, sit and pray.
Nope Satan, not today.

Unleashed!
Unleashed!

Let truth shine
come from behind
no self-pity or guilt
no pride holding me on stilts--
saw too many knocked down
tears still on faces while they lay on the ground.
