LOVE IS THE LAW


 LOVE IS THE LAW


I made another wish upon a far away star 
I pray for love to find it's way to my heart
the time love comes for me Dark Angel will
had already taken me for his bride 
I probably made enough mistakes to last a life time
But I just sweep it all under the mattress 
does it really matter if it is for the better
I just act as if it never happened
I probably have a couple of dances left in me 
I ain't no ghost yet written down in history 
but I feel the ghost of pain is near me 
watching me like he has voodoo on me 
he is the Phantom of my nights
without the lights to lead my way 
I know you still haven't forget me oh love of the free
but the night cry's saying deep within the darken wind
voices saying they miss me to never leave 
though they never met me so why are they crying for me
that is a dark mystery
Enough I cried out into the night 
saying let go of my soul
I don't want to turn cold 
I stood so bold out into the strong storm 
Its crazy but very true 
you have me so confused to what I'm going to do
you walk around me like you have put a spell on me 
I'm meeting people for the first time of a unkind 
hard to deal with when I look into their yes I see 
something that keeps me unease 
They love me after they judgment in embarrassing
watching me jump up and down 
rolling around on the ground 
holding me down making sounds 
Don't you ever confuse timid with arrogant
Voodoo child, misunderstood
If God let me have true Love then I know my heart is good
but why do I have to go through so much 
to prove how much my faith is in Love
why do I have to go through the fire of lies 
it you know my heart is good
Tell me love is the only law 
then take me away from it all 
give me back my heart 
give me back my wings
and let me sing 
let me fly on high 
and wash the sins away

To all my readers you may see that their are grammar errors in my old writings, but these writing are from the80's, 90's ,2000's. I truly didn't think anyone was readying my work . so I just started writing out what I felt and made my pains a story and poems . I had re post these poems and stories all over the internet and I keep them also in file so no one can ever say my work is theirs . I have kept my work as they are just for others to see where it was I started my writing at . The pains are so real not even a game ,The life I had lived I would never wish upon no one . I like to say to all who are taking the steps for change in their life congratulations to the new open doors God bless you . You may have seen my photos on the internet and my writings on Poetry.com and poem hunter etc. you may have seen the hate that others have given to me about my work and my beauty of who I am . But as you can see I will never let the haters Stop me from doing what I love . So I say the same to all of you write your own words and let your heart speak to all your readers . I hope you can understand why I haven't made changes in my work at less not the old ones . My old work are left as they are for me to always remember where it all came from . God bless to all who reads . Lilly Emery / Judy Emery
