Light of the Universe
When I am lonely and friends,
family, acquaintance are gone
Let me seek you and never
forget who I am
Light of the Universe
When I am weary and friends,
family, acquaintance are gone
Help me unite with the very
source of your love,
Let me honor you and remember
Who I Am
Light of the Universe
When I am tested in my
imperfection and feel
As if I can’t carry on,
Walk with me and remind me
That I Am your creation
Light of the Universe
when I wish not to rise
to your beautiful morning
sun and get my dance praise on
Let me remember gratitude
When I don’t really understand
Light of the Universe
When I don’t’ hear you like
others say they do
Quiet my mind from all chatters
Of distraction
Light of the Universe
When I am lonely and friends,
family, acquaintance are gone
Teach me to be still, inhale
and exhale your wind of love.
Pray in me that I become
The great woman
As you told me that I Am.
One more thing Light of
The Universe
Give me strength today so that
I can carry on when friends,
Family and acquaintance
Are gone.

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.
