At Four

At four I hear you speak in your dreams
of great and beautiful Angels
soaring above and beyond
And if I didn’t believe
I would say that is not true
At four I hear you speaking
in your dream of spirit sitting
beside you
And if I didn’t believe
I would say that is not true
At four I see your eyes turn from
dark brown to the golden sun and I saw
my Creation and if I didn’t believe
I’d say that is not true
At four I hear you speaking to void
and my heart melt feeling your pain
And If I didn’t believe you
I would say that is not true
At four I hear you speaking in your
dream of great and beautiful holy
Angels soaring & beyond
And when I rise, I felt silence
I knew this was love
And if I didn’t believe there is
greatness I would say that is not true
At four I hear soft whisper of his grace,
his peace and I realize it was just only
me and you, with my eyes open in a dream
at Four.

About the author

empressjournee

I am a graduate of Medgar Evers College (M.E.C.); mother of three, grandmother and great grand. I love to read great books and listen to podcasts that uplift my consciousness; sharing historical view of the different shades of color, the various culture, the way we all are connected, the musical genius throughout the world and the works that are done to help us tap into ourselves and know that we are worthy. I also love to write poetry and sing. There was a moment that now phase in another aspiration of my life, I felt singing was a forum—a path to take, that helps to voice, express my thoughts, in time where I was struggling, battling something I did not understand and what I was going through; feeling unsupportive. Although, there was some support, especially from my love ones, the challenges I faced was mostly internal.
I am so grateful for the grace I have been given to be able to write my poetic thoughts, that is my freedom. I was a part of a journey that taught me lessons and motivate me that preparation is a must to face a world that may not be ready for a new rising star. Thank you for taking the time to read my poetry. I especially wanted to give honor to my mother who is no longer in the physical, as well as my natural father for the knowledge of health before he departed from this planet. Also, I would like to thank you my supporter for being on this journey with me even at times when the journey seems unclear. May we appreciate the blessings that has been given to us, as we continue to soar, as we reach a place of true jubilee.
