| What’s it all about
Knowing, yet not knowing Day by day Living as a Fool Hope is the risk I take Faith is a ship for Fools And sailing onward I go Daring to dream Roulette with my heart My very life Torn by the struggle Raging deep within Truth versus doubt Who holds the upper hand? The stakes are high Or are they? For what is lost Other than pride To surrender pride Is no loss At all And there remains the reward Spoil to the victor If a victor there be If I win I win all If I lose It is but pride And pride is for fools |

Cruel Hands
Posted by Sue Jacintho On July 20, 2014
(Quintessentially pathetic and hilarious)
| Cruel hands hewed an axe through my sternum
Cruel hands clutched either side and wrenched it apart Cruel hands wrapped icy fingers about my heart Cruel hands squeezed until my soul oozed out Cruel hands dashed the tattered remains to the ground And as the shattered pieces of my being lay scattered He with the cruel hands laughed Are all hands as cruel as his? |

he knows
Posted by Sue Jacintho On July 11, 2014
I know that he knows
Just as I know
The veil was lifted from my eyes
And suddenly I saw
That which had merely
Tickled my mind
From time to time
A passing thought
A whim
Oh sweet revelation
Yet a Mystery
For how could it be
That we would find it here
When years have passed
And yet how could we
Not have known!
The dream I’ve always dreamed
The prayer I’ve always prayed
God alone appoints the time
When our hearts
Shall be prepared
I see him through opened eyes
But for a moment
In fear I closed my eyes
To discard the fanciful thought
If notion it be
Yet it tickled
It knocked at my heart’s door
So open my eyes I did
And gently watching him
I saw that he knew it too
I saw that he closed his own eyes
In fear as well
Taken by surprise
To wonder
How could we not have seen before?
And looking on I found
That fear had crept back in
Until peace dispelled it
And cast it far away
For this I know
And know it well
That nothing interferes
With God’s will
I shall trust in Him
For He will appoint the time
And make straight our paths
And bring our lives
Together
Binding our hearts
In the Glory of Love
Forever
My heart leaps for joy
I can hardly contain
And so I wonder
What now?
For I know that we were made
To become one together
Yet cannot yet see
How it shall come to pass
But I can wait
For this I know
That God appoints the time
And makes straight the path
Which brings our selves
Together
With Him in Love
Forever
And I know that he knows
Just as I know

Suffocation
Posted by Sue Jacintho On July 11, 2014
Anger Therapy…
Suffocation
I stepped out of my own life
And met you in yours
I put my life on hold
To join you in yours
To love for a moment
To love for a day
To live for a moment
In a beautiful way
But you barely slowed down
You just took it in stride
You barely slowed down
Now the moment has died
I poured it out on you
The love that’s in my heart
But you’re too damned afraid
To open your own heart
You just don’t understand
That nothing was at stake
You could have made that moment
A sweet memory to take
You say your world is crazy
You think it’s some excuse
My world is just as crazy
And I don’t need a damned excuse
Why do you see me
As a black hole
Suffocation!
Desolation!
As though I
Would take your soul
Consume you
Devour you
And leave you
A withered corpse
Twitching
On the ground
Why do you see me
As a black hole
Suffocation!
Desolation!
You think I
Would take your soul
Consume you
Devour you
And leave you
Your withered corpse
Decaying
In the ground
As always I’m the fool
Cast my pearls before swine
Dare to love a blind-ass fool
Who can’t see love divine
Got to pick up the pieces
Got to wonder why
You see me as a black hole
A place for you to die
God knows it’s not the first time
I wish it were the last
I have to go on loving
And lock this in my past
Your thoughts dishonor me
We’ve got one life to live
You think I want it all
Or more than you can give
What you just don’t get
Is when you give it all
You don’t lose any thing
Not one thing at all
I said that all I wanted
Was a moment lived with love
I asked for just a moment
You dishonor me, my love
Why do you see me
As a black hole
Suffocation!
Desolation!
As though I
Would take your soul
Consume you
Devour you
And leave you
A withered corpse
Twitching
On the ground
Why do you see me
As a black hole
Suffocation!
Desolation!
You think I
Would take your soul
Consume you
Devour you
And leave you
Your withered corpse
Decaying
In the ground
I stepped out of my life
And met with you in yours
I put my life on hold
To join with you in yours
To share love for a moment
To share love for a day
To live life for a moment
In a light and beautiful way
But you barely slowed down for me
You took it all in stride
No, you barely slowed down for me
And now the moment’s died
Why do you see me
As a black hole
Suffocation!
Desolation!
As though I
Would take your soul
Consume you
Devour you
And leave you
A withered corpse
Twitching
On the ground
Why do you see me
As a black hole
Suffocation!
Desolation!
You think I
Would take your soul
Consume you
Devour you
And leave you
Your withered corpse
Decaying
In the ground
