Flowing with Love

Noticed by all, studied by few
Yet everyone knows, my silent powers are true.
In my rage I can wash away a Beach's sands.
Yet in my love, I will wash away your worst sins.

My presence brings forth life, just look at the world around you.
And in my embrace, I preserve it;
Observe the flowers cut from their roots.

With all this power I still have limits,
set by the Master above.
So until I receive another command... I'll just be here, dripping, falling; flowing with love!

My relationship with Christ!

At 27... I guess you could say I've been through a lot of dark nights.
I've been through hell's fire and life's hard rains
There have been times when I wanted to give up, to give in to the fight
Throw it all away, and give in to the pain.

Suicide, depression, leaving this world.... yes this was me
Thinking of other worlds and how life on them would be
To be a spirit, boundless and free
And at any time, be anywhere in this Galaxy.

Yet, in the back of my mind, there was a voices, so gentle and calm
Telling me to hold, "Son, just be strong!"
That it wouldn't last forever,
That one days things would be better

Crying my eyes out, longing for relief
Wishing for just someone, to understand my grief.
I drowned out the voice, thinking "It could never be."

Yet it never faded, it was always there
Trying desperately, to pull me from despair...
And then one day I gave in... because I was done fighting... "Okay, voice, you win!"

I fell into a slumber, and soon fell asleep
It must have only been a few minutes, but man was it deep.
I saw my grandmother, her sweet smile warmed my heart
And for a quick second, I was able to behold a masterpiece of God's own art...
I heard her whisper, son you'll make it!
You just gotta keep going  don't youdare quit!
As she faded away there was a greater beauty to behold
My eyes begin to water, as I begin to behold it all

I saw so plainly, "oh God, how could I have been so blind;
To this beautiful and fragile time, we all call life!"
I saw the Majesty of His creation, the works of His hands,
The beautiful stars upon the sky, the harmony of the beasts upon the lands
I saw harmony in the chaos, peace in the atmosphere
I saw how that all the time He was always there.
Never in the way, no, He was just watching.
Waiting for the day, that I'd stop blocking...
Blocking him from my life, blocking out the light,
Only heeding the darkness, the plagues of the night

And so I tell you all, open up to the One,
Who not only framed the heavens, and the worlds
But has mended broken hearts, and has healed a many of hurt souls.
You may not think he's available to you,
You may think he doesn't care.
But as he was for me, I can tell you, He's near
It doesn't take you being perfect, nor being okay
It just takes a heart willing to believe, that Jesus will save the day. ☺️
He's been here from the beginning
And he'll be here until the end
So I guess we'll both be here, 😊 waiting for you to accept Him in!


You may be going through a lot, in this day and age, I know you most likely are. But let go today buddy, and know that God is never far!

Yasahiro!

Our governments are failing us
While our law enforcement slays us
Life tries to kill us
Yet our medical system won't help us

All over the land,
people cry out in despair.
Looking for a helping hand,
For someone that will truly care!

They cry out in song,
And they cry out in prayer...
For a heart that will love them
They're searching every where!!!

There are struggles each day
And many are without hope
Some turn to addiction,
While others "cut" to cope.

It's a pain I know as well
For I have my dark nights too.
So I will reach out to whomever I can
Until the sun shines again for you!

This is my decree, this is my life
To help a wounded soul
Find their way back to the light.

I will sit with them in the darkness
And encourage them to look up
Showing them that there's a way
Though the journey may seem rough

For even in the darkest nights
There's still a beauty to behold
And there's still a warm heart
To love you when it's cold.

This is my legacy, it will forever be my oath
To serve and protect...
To encourage you as your coach.
And not only I but those here with me
Yes, the ones I call family
They will be there when I'm not
To see you and your loved ones through
Because we are Yasahiro, that is what we do!

A message from TY

In this life we will gain and we will lose
We will love, and unfortunately we will be abused
We will walk with our heads held high
And some days we'll be saddened and all we can do is sigh

This is a crazy life, full of laughs and full of tears
But if you can just hold out
You'll see the beauty of it all in each passing year
I may not be there to physically hold your hand or lend you my shoulder
But just remember Dashi is always in your corner


This is me and I'm here for every one of you!
You are my family so it's my pleasure to see you through!

With love,
    ~TY

A Goodnight Poem

(Just thinking of my future love with this one)

You may have never known this,
Though I have tried to prove it from the start
I have always admired and adored
How you were able to capture my heart

How you were able to fight through the pain
And overcome the obstacles,
How you were able to dance in the rain
In the midst of hatred you were yet unstoppable

How you smiled when you were broken
And I still saw the light in your eyes
How you were able to encourage others in their storms
Yet you were hurting deep inside

I sat back and marveled, how you could be so strong...
Yet it seems like only I knew, that you've been struggling for far too long

So I would like to offer you a gift
I sincerely hope you won't refuse
I wish to offer you this
Something I know you'd never abuse

It's small yet full of love,
Constantly and steadily working;
Often it gets excited, yet it's always yearning

To be yours, once and for all,
To be yours through and through
I wish to offer my heart full of love
And for a chance to take care of you!

To be your strength when you're weak
Your comforting arms when you're tired
The gentle voice that whispers "baby it's okay
When life gets you wired...

Allow me to be your masseuse
When stress has you tensed,
And when all the world seems to be against you
I'll stand and be your defense


All of this I wish for you, asking for only one thing in return
That you would look at everything that has shaped you, and see that it was only to help you learn

How to be a great woman, a cut above the rest
Fit for a king, fit for the best :)

I love you with all my heart, and I hope you love me so
I just wanted to say that, before off to sleep I go!

The poem of my Heart!

All eyes on me,
Yet my heart only yearns for you
Every one's asking,
Dashi when will love find you?

Four years, I think it has been
Since my first thought of you.
1,460 days,
A dream has finally come true.

For it was a night like no other,
We talked blissfully under a starlit sky
And although the conversation was simple
I was scared to say good night!

I kept replying to you as it was all I could do
"Sweet dreams!"...  "Sleep tight!"
My prayers never more serious
As I asked Him to protect you that night!

I asked for a text,
to let me know you arrived home safely.
But the feelings that followed next
We're something altogether unexpected.

"I'm home buddy! About to hit the bed."
Was the text that I saw.
And my heart skipped a beat
As it was happily read.

It was almost instantaneous
I knew it would be you!
I wrote down every little detail
Everything I knew was true

You have a heart of gold,
An attitude to match it too,
A very sweet spirit,
A quiet disposition too!

And so time has passed, since those very first few days
And my heart has only grown more fond of you...
Yep, and in more than a million ways!

I would like to take this time,
"May I ask you out for a date?"
I would like to make you mine!
Before the time is too late!

I wish for a beautiful future
I work for a better tomorrow
I will love for a lifetime
For you I'll add no sorrow

For my plans are already set!
They're in a folder tucked away at home
Because I knew I wanted everything right
For the bride, the wife, I'll soon show to mom.

My heart is hoping now, that you'll surely say "Yes"
For I have waited for what seems to be a lifetime,
To get this off my chest

I love you, I do 💜
I've loved you from the start
It's been a pleasure being your friend
I mean that from my heart

So tonight with my final lines
I'll tell you my one last dream
That until the end of time
People will know you as my queen!

With all of my heart, with all of my love!
I sign off as ~Dashi 💗💙💗

The Love Letter.... Part II

To..... You, my future love!

        Hello love ☺, just wanted to see how you were doing today, (just as always 😊). And to write just a little letter since I know it's been a while... (Sorry about that).
       Ummm, so here goes, I was asked to write a poem by a friend a few days ago concerning you and for the first time in a long while ya boi got stumped for a sec lol. Before you jump on me it's not like that love... It wasn't that I couldn't think of something lovely to say to you, it was just that I really wanted it to be something from my heart... Something true, real! And after running lines and quotes through my head... Nothing really seemed right, so I chose to write you this instead... A letter, like we used to do ☺. Although this may be a little weird I ask that you would bear with me for a moment 😊 trying to get everything inside... Out lol.
     If it's okay with you, I'll begin with my fears; and answers to the questions I've been asked down through the years. I want to say thank you! For waiting... Thank you, for being... You! For being sweet, kind, soft-spoken, loving, for pressing through all the bad days, only to find Grace in the sunshine.. thank you also, for not giving up on me... For sticking by my side, even when the darkness sought to overthrow me... Thank you for being my hope, my drive to be better, my reason to continue shining, even when I thought it wasn't worth it. I hid myself and shut myself off from love all those years because I was tired of the games, the lies, and deceit. I was also concerned that this relationship would never come... Because of my work schedule and the stress that came with it... And on that note, thank you love, for being my peaceful escape... Never think for a second that I would ever leave you, because when the days became long and hectic, my thoughts of you made everything seem worth while, and it was in those few moments that I realized that I had finally found Grace.. and I had finally understood the beauty of Solomon's Song...
     I think it's funny, I'm writing and thinking of you on tonight... And I do not know your name as of yet... But the thought of you keeps me going... It keeps me looking optimistically towards the future... Because I know the day we meet, the chapter of my beautiful happily ever after will begin writing itself, sentence by sentence, paragraph by paragraph, page by page... And for that I'm happy. It will be as my mother told me, life will be sweet, because for the first time in my life... Nothing will have to be forced or demanded, our love, respect, and devotion to each will just be things that flow freely. And I will finally know what it's like to live a life that's better than my dreams. 💗💙💗


Sincerely yours,
          ~Dashi Y.
