Hola Mi Amor!

This woman you’re looking at with that perfectly imperfect body

Those long flowing thickalicious golden locks-

She, she’d been living her life traveling around sleuthing for love

Not recognizing she should be proofing for love

Instead of resistant she was insistent on filling that love void

Was it because Daddy left and was far away?

Was it the disconnection, the confusion of race?

Or maybe it’s the time and attention they gave?

Now don’t take it the wrong way

This one is a lifer

She’s a loyal lover to a fault

Staying through the storms and the rain

Never ready to bring it to a halt

Fighting through the hurt and the pain

Forgiving time and time again

Pero, te amo mucho mi amor

Sealed with a kiss- his sins absolved

It took a life or death decision again to leave this love alone

An ultimatium given, his answer fueled with deceit

It’s time to close this chapter for a love that can’t be beat

Tired of going in circles, stuck inside of a maze

She can’t ignore the time they took or the choices that she made

But there’s one that loves agape

He heals, He revives, He restores

No more broken promises

The one she can adore

It is a rooted love

Healing her wounded love

Reviving what should be loved- her

Restoring where broken roots were

Now that she has been rooted in the love that can’t compare

She learned to love the right one- who always has been there

An inward transformation

A solace in her core

A light that shines from in her – vibrant, bright and free

So now she’s ready for love, that’s one thing I know for sure

The love that will last a lifetime will soon be knocking at her door.

¹⁶ I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. ¹⁷ Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. ¹⁸ And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. ¹⁹ May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.
