A Woman's Worth - Riaan 'JePro' Davids

A woman's worth isn't measured by her attributes
Nor by what one can gain from her
She's beautiful in her own right
Gorgeous in her own sight
And to those who can truly see her for her
For the majority of mankind
Physical appearance is a blindfold
Not allowing one to see the beauty within
A woman's worth isn't measured by others' opinions of her
Nor can it be determined by them
I must admit I had a hand in defiling the image of women
By accepting the objectification of the beauty of God's creation
Women should be treated like very expansive diamonds
Gold that cannot be sold
A treasure that are kept save from the wicked
Who once they lay their hands on this treasure
Will with no doubt treat it with no respect
And will try to profit from it
I might just be one voice
But I will state my case none the less
A woman's presence should be rejoiced
A woman's worth cannot be measured
And we shouldn't tempt to measure it
Coz out of that act we will only be producing a mess
So we should be treating woman with utmost respect
Like a new born nurtured and protected
I'm not making a statement or claiming that women are perfect
But love, respect and honor doesn't ask one to be blameless
So to all the women out there
I can't promise to treat you as you ought to be 24/7
But i'm surely going to make an effort
Putting my selfish needs aside
Coz the pleasures of this world can't compare to heaven
And who wouldn't want to experience the wonders
Of how a woman's smile can light up a room
And the knowledge of a woman's joy can brighten one's day
So I will seek to love as God loves his church
There's no greater example than Him
To each and every women
Just know that there's a God who loves you unconditionally
And a man's love cannot come close
And for romantic love that you seek in men
Seek it in men that seeks to please God
And wants to love like God does
Coz a love that's based on choice cannot be altered
In closing
Don't let anyone undermine your worth
You are surely a blessing of endless measure

Kate - Riaan 'JePro' Davids

Lord what about Kate
Would she like to go on a date
Or would she want me to be just a mate
We together can it be fate
If I've messed up please give me a clean slate
We a romantic dinner with love on the plate
What would I get if i got rate
Please help me my heart is in a state
And my mind just don't want to make a mistake
Let me be the reason she wants to celebrate
When she tell her friends and family that I'm more than just a roommate
What I feel can't be debate
Call up the love doc to help you translate
So that you won't be afraid to also walk through that gate
The state of relationship with your soulmate
And if I could I would continuously reiterate
This topic I will never overrate
Hope you also get there before it's too late
And if you've been there then you can relate
About this love bubble that will never deflate
And when you come in a couple of years for an update
You'll find out I never compromised and compensate
Because my love for her I don't want to desecrate
Wanting the life we build to be immaculate
In holy matrimony our love was consecrate
And lifes interrelate
The goal to procreate
Beautiful offspring we will create
This is my dream and not prate
And wanting my last words to be filled with love and not hate

I'm made just for you - Riaan 'JePro' Davids

This my version of Gavin Degraw's song called Not Over You

********************

Dreams, a place i will have to leave now
coz our love's too beautiful, for you to not
be in my real world, coz that would be too cold
Hope, hoping that tomorrow
we both would be more than just ok
and you would ask me to stay, coz i know, together we are good
and you will realize

CHORUS:
If you ask me how I'm doin I would say I'm doin just fine
coz you choose me, i'm yours and you are mine
and we will go out and sit down at a table set for two
and finally they are forced to face the truth
No matter what they say, I'm made just for you
Made just for you

Damn, damn girl you are so fine
And I love that you are innocent
You gave your heart what a love story to tell
Our story so magnificent
I'm a man in love doesn't matter what life throw me
I will stick around and won't play games
i'm better than the old me
And I will always be close too you

CHORUS:
If you ask me how I'm doin I would say I'm doin just fine
coz you choose me, i'm yours and you are mine
and we will go out and sit down at a table set for two
and finally they are forced to face the truth
No matter what they say, I'm made just for you

BRIDGE:
And everyday our love are renew
You know there isn't a thing I wouldn't do
I wont turn back from this right track
Because you got me convinced
So then

CHORUS:
If you ask me how I'm doin I would say I'm doin just fine
coz you choose me, i'm yours and you are mine
and we will go out and sit down at a table set for two
and finally they are forced to face the truth
No matter what they say, I'm made just for you
Made just for you
Made just for you
Made just for you

A Poet's Wish (his voice - his letter) - Riaan 'JePro' Davids

To whom this is intended...

Words that are meant to be uttered verbally, are being communicated via the print medium...

Some might say this is Romantic, while others will see differently, thinking this is (I might agree) utterly cowardliness... But I would like to think this is assurance... Assuring that what my mind processed after hearing my heart's case, are fully and completely expressed - the best way I know how.

This might take the form of a letter, but in essence this is me telling you what's on my mind. Why not tell you this in person? Well, I know myself and through experience I didn't wanted to set myself up for a disappointment... If I would have done this in your presence I would have only said half of what I intend to and in this way I won't be thrown off by your Beautiful mind interrupting me (I admit, with valid questions or points you would want to rise)... 

All I can ask is that you won't judge me and make your opinion about me, by the way I choose to convey that which I'm about to say (in written form). In the end it's not how I say it, but what I'm saying that's important.
The Meaning of the words does not differ from one medium to the other. The description of the words remains the same when you consult a dictionary.

So forget about your surroundings

What I'm about to do is astounding

Expressing myself with some rhyming

And within this poem you shall find me

My thoughts upon this sheet

Words that will knock you off your feet

Each and every line unique

Making your heart skip a beat

Don't get me wrong

I'm not demanding

I see a woman nothing less than strong

Her heart she might be defending

What this is, is a poem within a letter

But honestly, doest this really matter

One thing I do realise

My Dreams are vulnerable

If it gets scattered it won't be a surprise

Still I will walk away honourable

I'll give you the key to unlock the door 

As you walk in you'll see it's you I adore

It will be written on the walls and floor

If there was still space I would write more

The ceiling is kept clean

Representing the Purity within me

If I could only make you see

And in the process make you believe

What might and could be

When both of us open heartedly receive

Will you join me on this beautiful journey?

A road mapped out with our lives

We can explore the endless possibilities

But we must do this willingly

Through my eyes you will have to go

The key point to reach my soul

Looking into your eyes just to show

Bringing us closer together is my goal

What I'm trying to say to you

And what I'm dreaming to do

Are two things coming together as one 

Hopefully you won't have an urge to run

Seeing that there is room for fun

"Ek smaak jou met n Passion

Dis soema Goed jy study Fashion..."

This is a quote

From a poem that I wrote

That's the way I feel...

Just wanting to keep it real

You're Unbelievable...

Incredible...

And more...

Way more...

But what am I telling you this for

You already know this unquestionable truth

You make me stand in Awe

And I like you a lot that's for sure!

I wish the way you feel about me is the same

This poem I'm writing is not for fame

And if I'm trying to enthuse you

Am I really to blame?

And I refuse to be ashamed

This process is yet to be named

Confessions of a Poet - Riaan 'JePro' Davids

Overwhelmed with a feeling I can't control
An emotion that's unstoppable
A desire consumed with fire
A passion that will out stand any fashion
My heart asking us to start

To a girl that's Beautiful
Her Soul Incredible
Her Body Unbelievable
Her Spirit full of Life
And Heart designed with Love

Tercia is her name
Eyes of an Angel destroying the devil's flame
Riaan da poet will never be the same
Cause I encountered this Beauty and my knees got lame
In one moment my Life got changed
And now my priorities had to be re-arranged

This poem might end
But not what I Feel
My words I won't defend
Coz my Heart know what is real

r 4 d - Riaan 'JePro' Davids

Definitely one of a kind
Extremely Gorgeous
Lovely flower
One Beautiful lady
Radiant angel
Enjoyable presence
Enormous heart
Sexy in every way

as I open this book
to write down what I feel
I realise that I don't know what I'm doing,
I tried to fight it
but I couldn't deny it
I must've left the door to my heart open
because butterflies that spell your name were found,
I'm not clueless when it comes to the topic love
but I’ve never experienced the beauty of it
I'm not saying that I'm in love
but I'm not saying that I can't be,
all I know in this moment
when I see you I loose myself in a world unknown to me,
I can try to be poetic
and at the same time sound pathetic,
I should be open and honest
but would you be truthful or just modest,
for once I would like to be lucky
and hear someone as beautiful as you call me honey,
I might be going too far with this
but for you I'll take the risk,
on a scale from one to ten
what's the chances that we'll be more than friends,
what would be more powerful
my looks or this pen
would you take this book's worth by it's cover
or that which is written within,
you are Beauty
how I long to be the Beast
because at the end of the story
he receive the kiss
and with it his life found new meaning,
I can blow out a candle and make a wish
or just approach you without scheming
and hope for the best
as you decide what's next,
right now your standing over my heart
it's your choice to hold or crush it,
I'm taking a gamble
hoping for a royal flush
and in your presence I just blush
but I believe telling you is a must
and hope that there'll be a us,
I know there's no need to rush
but for someone as gorgeous as you
there's no guarantee of availability
and I don't want my opportunity to slip away,
requesting that in this moment
you'll see me for me
as I'll see you as someone true,
I had a lot to say
I hope you don't mind by the means I relay,
when you come to this part
let me know
because there's something I would like to ask
and one response I set my heart on,
I could end with your secret admirer
but then what's the use of this confession.

Fruits of Loving You - Riaan 'JePro' Davids

- let me know that I have a heart and are capable of pure emotions
- makes me examine myself and work on my faults to be come a
- better man
- makes me know keeping my treasure safe is worth it and
- being romantic isn't a waste and
- feeling down can be conquered by thinking of you, but mostly
- finding a connection that lasts forever

My Daily Declaration - Riaan 'JePro' Davids

I am a child of GOD. I am His servant. I am called with a Purpose. I have a Destiny. I am a Warrior for Christ. I am the Head and not the tail. I am a heir to His Kingdom through Jesus Christ.

I am a man in Christ. I will be faithful to my wife[the one GOD has set apart for me, and in return she will remain faithful towards and to me]. I will Honor her with my actions and word. I will Love her from now until GOD permits me.

I am a father in Christ. I will look after those He entrusted me with. Bringing them up in the Will of GOD. Whether they will be born of me[one day when I'm married] or given in my care.

I'm in this world, but not of this world.

I was what I was, I am what I am, but I'm going to be what GOD wants me to be.

This I declare in Jesus Name. Amen.

Not to be or to be... - Riaan 'JePro' Davids

A girl I never considered to be...
A Beauty is she
No winter nor summer, or the other seasons
Will make this Flower loose it's Blossom or reason...

An Angel without Wings
But still, Joy she brings
Stimulating Love and Peace
Puting my Heart at ease

What should I do to give her a clue
Just to say "I Love U"
But what would shey say?
To go away or to stay?

Not to be or to be... Sweetheart
Let Us not be distance apart

The Poet Emerge

I speak from the heart, that's where it all starts, I relay with my mouth, that's where my thoughts get heard, I also speak through actions, coz at times it's louder than words...

I Love writing(songs/poems/etc). Writing what comes to me, whether I've experienced it or not, for some reason I feel that exact emotion I write about...

**********

My first recall of writing:

It all began when I was in standard 4, when I was so in love and was singing. I wrote down the words and couldn't sing it again the same way I sang it the first time around, and decided to convert it into a poem and continued writing it. Ever since then, I expressed myself through Pen and Paper.  Writing poems, and about 3 or fours ago, started writing lyrics. Through the years I had a few pseudonyms, but now known as JePro.

Here's my first poem that started out as a song...

No Words Can Describe You - Riaan 'JePro' Davids

No Mountain so High

Ocean so Wide

Stormy day and

A Hot Sunny day

Going to keep me away from you

You are so Beautiful

You are so Lovely

I can say these words a thousand Times

But it won't get near how I'm describing You

You are more Beautiful, Lovely then

Words can say

Daisies and Roses won't come close

But my Heart know the Feeling

Feelings just for You

_____

I Love You

I need You

And want to hold You

Make You feel Secure beside me

You are so Incredible

Master work of all paintings

And I'm dreaming of Us

United Together Forever

Me and You Together Forever

TWO ROSES, JUST FOR YOU - Riaan 'JePro' Davids

All the roses in the world combine couldn't compare to your beauty

Red, not blue, yellow and pink too

Emerging from the ground

Delighting themselves in God their creator

Richly Blessed

Overflowing with Love

Such a Beautiful sight to see

Especially when all this describe you

An angelic voice

Noticed across the world

Designed for perfection

All I want to say is, be Blessed on this special day

Praying that God, according to His Will

In your everyday life, will give you your heart's desires

New adventures enriching your life; and a

Kiss of Love from heaven above

Red and pink roses

Only for a lady that's one of a kind

Special in the eyes of God...

Enjoy your Birthday.
