Octavius Johnson Poems

Her eyes brighten my soul.
They give me direction in each new day.
The Hope that was dwindling away
Is restored when I look in Her eyes.
...

Gotta get going I'm gonna be late, What's my agenda today?
I'm thinking I gotta pay this and I gotta go there.
...

It's rainin'! It's stormin'!
What am I gonna do?
How am I gonna make it through?
...

My debt has been cancelled.
My debt has been suspended.
With a Humble sacrifice, with True Love
...

I am imprisoned
Imprisoned and chained down by lies and deviousness
Jailed by a coward's sense to please others
Locked down in my drunken escape from reality
...

You have problems and troubles.
Stop complaining about the rain!
People talk bad and lie about me.
Stop crying over the pain!
...

As you get older, you
Reminience on what, when, who
Those paths not taken, those
Things left undone or forgotten foes
...

As I am walking, I feel his eyes
Spying and admiring.
He speaks to me about my beauty,
Admiring and Complimenting.
...

Higher Confidence
“It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man”
Psalm 117: 8
...

True Love


True Love is just that
