SOULFULNESS


SOULFULNESS

My mind hides

what my heart CRIES! 

The simplest moment in life

when i begin to realize...

 

My Soul feels

what my body intended

I made it unexpected...

 

What you less expected

Is what you already nuture..

Barbarism hides my CALMNESS 

BRUSQUE hides my love

 

Soulfulness is my key to LONGEVITY

I LOVE MY LIFE and the unexpected 

CHOICES I MAKE

I create my love

I create my future 

I create the things I choose to say

 

Life is not a game

BE CAUTIOUS and if OPPURTUNITY

does not knock

build another DOOR

 

Soulfulness is the key

in your heart

now use your key and unlock

THE WORLD
