Corey Campbell (BlackChild) Poems

I bumped into the Garden Of Love
Because love, I have never seen.
Though I've searched far and wide,
But its covered by a screen.
...

I'm sitting here alone
waiting to hear your voice
To listen I am prone
to hear you I'll rejoice

Inside my heart you've caused a flame.
...

While sitting in the congregation I realize,
must have been when the spirit hit me.
I notice all the souls that were closed inside,
of this known place that many come to see.
