Light Of the Universe

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

This bio will be short. I am a graduate of Medgar Evers College. Mother of three and grandmother. I love to read and write poetry.

To those who have been a great support in reading my website and those who just came across this poetry this will be the ending of my poetic journey for now. I hope there will be a new chapter in my life that will be a success and inspired people to be far better in their thoughts, words and deeds. I am working on myself and it’s been hard.... yet I am getting there. When I began my poetry, I felt so deeply inspired. Now when I write I just write (feeling burned out of all that has occurred and is occurring) and I am feeling as if my poetry isn’t moving in the manner that I feel it should because I have not place myself in a position to be active reading my poetry at live venues for my own personal reason. I wanted to thank those who took the time to read my poetry especially my love ones. Thank you for being on the journey with me. Peace and blessings.
