I toiled with the thought of you,the presence of who
Then just in time to figure you out,you leave
You leave behind remnants of other emotions
Yet I still don't know you name.
You come and go as you please
Locking the door behind you as you leave
Who gave you the key?
I thought I could dismiss the obviousness of your presence,but you mask it with seeds
It can be angry,jealous ,lonely ,insecure and doubtful yet none of them is you
Your style is masked with a greater intent
Clothed in demise you make your way in.
I prayed you gone and had others do the same ,you left for a moment
I left a window open and in the front door you came
I called all the names I could, but you answered to none
So I walked and talked to God asking Him what should be done
You can beat a drum and get all the sounds it's suppose to make
But when you blow it,or stroke it,an unintended silence is all it creates
The wrong approach yields no response
You carried deceit,meant to haunt
So You were all along being called by other names
No wonder you returned as you wish doing the same damage as the last time you came
Unrecognizable by name only presence
I prayed and I prayed for your identity to be made known,the source of your essence
so I could knock you down in all of your shadow stature
The fall of you in 3-D.... captured
Discontent, there you go!
I know what you do,what you take away first
You stop what's started
your job is to unravel almost complete works
To hide 2 inches from the finish line
To whisper with sounds of familiarity only to destroy in a straight line
You came unnoticed because your name was hidden
Hidden by the loud sounds of what you SHOULD be, but that used to confuse me
Had I called you by your name before, I could have fought harder
But this time I understand and will beat you farther
I snatch your keys and destroyed your entry way,no longer are you welcome to make a home in my every day
Defeated is your new name because I lined you up with the name of my savior
And with His will at hand ,and knowing who I am YOU cannot stand
I watched long enough as you walked in and out.
Confused as to what you were about.
I thought it was me,but it's you.
Our relationship is crushed you are through.
I line up Love,Joy peace,patience ,goodness,kindness ,gentleness and self control on my doors and windows panes
SO that your next attempt to enter my world will be in vain
Consider this your eviction notice,you've been warned ,take you bags,takes the keys
You don't live here ANY more.
You're not welcome like nobody with an invite
You have not mail here,all things stamped and returned goodnight
You have been vanquished from the presence of me,so I'm not the inner me enemy.
Thank God I found you,my Savior surrounds you,swallows you up and straightens up
I stand firm and can fight when you try and return.
