Why I Write

Why I write: 
Happy Holidays - has any family member or friend rec  a Kindle reader for Christmas - or have a smart phone - for that matter have a computer that can download a Kindle application? 

I am attempting to introduce to our young community and adults alike - Novels with persons of color within them (Within the Fantasy genre)

Will you help me spread  news of this novel - Not only is it a good read for young adults, but it breaks the color barrier of a once closed off genre 'fantasy' and the lack of people of color written within them. 

My desire is to change how we as readers who seek entertainment with novels like The Hobbit and Lord or Rings, The Narnia Chronicles, Harry Potter, and other novels of fantasy that have only elves, orcs, and dwarves -  If you read Fantasy this is all there is in terms of 'other races' 
There is more, but this is how for so very long the 'acceptance' has remained within a world that has no limits.  It not how I wish to view our world and what can be 'written' into them.. no barriers = no boundries 

The Prelude to my novel REMvision is here.  Its free and available on Amazon.  Guardians of REM - please share with our young community and adults alike.  Bless.

When I write N Prose... the Lord knows.. 

Days Like This..
When I open my eyes - I can’t see..
When I open my mouth – I can’t breathe ….
When I listen to my heart – it doesn't beat …
When I feed my soul – it hungers still ….
When I touch your photograph – I feel loss. ..
Lord.. There are some things you do… I disagree..
is it blasphemy?
how do I remain faithful when eye to eye I can’t see..
when...will I find my alignment to your will ..
Iost..
I know what you would advise ..
To believe .. to pray…
So, Lord ..
I come to you today
I just ..come to you -
Asking for a reprieve ..
The life you’re taken makes me grieve…
Lord …
I am on my knees
I raise my eyes up …
there are no words …
I choke up
Lord ..
I rip my chest wide…
look inside..
knock down the door where anger…guilt.. aloneness.. reside..
I cower behind the mask…
I hide
I don’t want to feel anything…
but I realize it is the reason..
I pray to you…
For your mercy… for your kindness … for forgiveness ..for your understanding.. for your healing.. for your strength.. for allowing me work out my confusion
Through words that you relay within my heart..
I claim this gift you have bestowed …
Able to perceive the ruse… the lies..
That the Devil tells.. when he whispers..
“you can’t fix any of this”
It’s not surprising – his voice is shallow…
His words attempt to conquer me..
Yet, I am going somewhere that he can’t follow…
While life in this body.. keeps
– yearning.. turning .. charging on…
twisting my insides… its all so demanding..
I want to ask…
“what is it like.. safe within your arms..”
Adrienne ..knows..
I need to believe I will end up there.
I look up to the skies.. and see only clouds..
Where is the sun …where are the stars..
why can’t I see you there.. up high –
why do I deny? am I the only one?
Thoughts too deep … when I think.
“why Lord… why”
I can’t fathom your wisdom… I can’t decipher the reasons
I cry..
And some nights … when I can’t sleep..
chaos within runs.. deep
You still find your way in…
And your words seep… into a soul burning to receive.
“Lean not onto your own understanding..”
I get it.. “But in all things - acknowledge him..”
even if it does not add up..
And I can’t do the math…
I believe…
Lord… you’ll walk me through…
You said it..
it is written. . but it is more than a
script.. more than words upon a scroll..
these are words written in blood stains
given in love.. entrusted.. engrained ..
I will stop making this all about me..
“And you shall direct my path.”
I Believe...
I Believe.
