The one who was Caged!

Caged one

Eni-agbala

What is this I hear from your mouth?
A tale of how Eru-iku wants you back?
He's sorry he ever let you go?
He really wants to be with you again?

Eni-agbala!
What is that I see in your eyes?Longing?
Regrets about leaving Eru-iku?
Wait! Uncertainty?
You don't know if you want him back too?

Eni-agbala!
Have you so quickly forgotten?
Really, how can you?
Ah, but I would remind you Eni-agbala

Eru-iku played games, and you were his pawn
He did with you as he so wished
Ah ah, how can you say you want to go back?

Remember, Eni-agbala
How you cried yourself to sleep so many nights
He'd made you do things you didn't want to do
And you felt rotten inside

That particular night, you screamed out for help
You were tired of the pain you felt
And the shame that came after
Have you forgotten?

You were a total nobody
When Ore-แปfแบน found you
He heard your screams that night
And he ran to save you
He had always been lurking around, stalking you
You were the one who didn't pay him attention
He healed you of all the hurts Eru-iku caused you

In so little time, a lot had changed about you
You were glowing
Ore-แปfแบน made you his queen
And you were loving it

What happened in-between, Eni-agbala
Ore-แปfแบน is so worried about you
He says he can feel you pulling back
That you don't let him hold you as he used to
When he wants to hug you, that you hold back
He can feel a strain between you and it's hurting Him

Eni-agbala, but you know you're everything to Ore-แปfแบน
You know he'd give anything to be with you
Why do you hurt him so?
He's the best thing that happened to you, and you know it

Eni-agbala....
Eru-iku does not mean anything he's saying
He just has a way with words
Isn't that how he always got you to do his bidding, even then?
But they were all empty words

He misses the power he had over you
To kick you here and there as he wanted
But you escaped from that
Do you want to go back?

Eni-agbala, come back!
I can see Eru-iku from here!
He's holding that cage he had you in again!
He's going to use it, if you should reach him.

Eni-agbala!
The eyes I see from here are not loving!
They are filled with determination!
Eru-iku will not let you go, this time!
He's prepared to consume you!

Run to the arms of your lover
and there take refuge!
Ore-แปfแบน's arms are wide open




Can you give me a conclusion, Fam?

Yoruba words

Eni-agbala - The one who was saved

Eru-iku - Fear/Death

Ore-แปfแบน - Grace

I once wrote a letter to my ex (Eru-iku), but I lost it. Letter was full of words that would make him know, I don't miss him, but I lost it๐Ÿคท๐Ÿฝ‍♀️

I'd make sure I write another

Would you write one too? To your lover (Ore-แปfแบน)

Please, been long I saw your comments. Down below ๐Ÿ˜, I want to see them o.

Leviticus is making me say, "Thank God!"

By -

God is so clean, if he was a man, he would be tagged to have OCD. Anyone who has read the book of Leviticus will understand just how much God hates dirt. The more I read through the book, the more grateful it makes me. What humans will consider 'no big deal' these days, was such a big deal in those days. Even things that are not necessarily your fault, like bodily discharge, made a man unclean and thereby unfit for God's presence, in those days. And then He'd have to do some sacrificing, to cleanse him and make him worthy, still only for a while. Until he's unclean again. I want us to realise that, the life most of us live now, is the kind of life that deserved to be burned or stoned in the old testament.  Thank God, there's the New Testament and thank God for Grace. We would never have deserved God's presence, but Grace has made us deserving of more, even LIFE. Let our lives show that we appreciate His Grace. By Grace are we saved, and we stay clinched to G...

One Prayer Away? - (Songspired ep.1)

 "Can you tell me something else?" ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿคฆ Sometimes life overwhelms you so much, you can't even find words to express it. You don't even want to, you're simply tired. On top of that, the church is offering you the same thing. But, "You can talk to God" doesn't sound like an advice that works. "God cares about you" does not ring true in your ears anymore. Because, how about the times you've called and it didn't seem like He heard? You've prayed and nothing happened? You've praised and things remained the same? But what if I tell you again That God still cares? That God's still there? Will it matter? Because you've heard it before And now all you want to really do is ignore But please don't Praise still works Prayer still works God is not far And sincerely, what are these problems, what are even generational curses before the effectual fervent prayer of the righteous? I know you may be tempted to Check out other op...

Don't Rush

Abraham, Sarah and Hagar - A pot mix of mess My Dad said something in one of the meetings we held recently, he said when one time he was contemplating taking a particular step, after he had prayed concerning a matter and he made no headway, he felt that taking this step was going to be his only way out. God asked him; " Do you think I can't do this thing for you? " he answered in his heart. "God, I know you can do it, it's just that your own takes time" It sounded funny, because most of us could relate with it. And partly it's the truth:  It can be very hard to wait on God because His timing is really very different from ours. But the reason is: He is working with His plan, not ours.  And we must train ourselves to work at his own pace, if not we'd get frustrated at how long he's taking and it may make us try to rush past him, and then we will end up making the mother of all messes. That's how I can describe the mess Abraham made by sleeping ...
