Poem
Today I pen this poem for all of you Know in your hearts every word is true There was once a time that I was insane Everyone I loved, I caused them pain Grandparents to my children’s hearts I honestly tore them all totally apart Uncles, Aunts, Sisters and Brothers She hadn’t drown probably my mother The best of friends and all of my mates No one was exempt from sharing my hate My hate was a river that forever poured My soul was thing that I forever ignored So why is that not the Michael Jordan of today One day I ask of the Lord, “Please guide my way” The road wasn’t easy true change never is My life was no longer mine I considered it his And what he ask, what he wanted me to do Is use myself as an example of how to be true Being true to myself I quickly learned was the key I couldn’t anything for you till I was honest with me And no matter what I do it could never be enough When it comes to amends I have a lifetime of stuff But none of that matters it no longer matters at all I now bow to the Lord but to the world I stand tall I no longer hold to excuses or offer up alibis I have learned how to let go of all of the lies My truth is my shield as I write for the Lord My heart writes lyrics as my soul plays the chords I don’t even really know what this poem is about Sometimes I’m blown away by what comes pouring out I guess it’s just another way to rise above the sin For it’s the words I write that teaches me to win What am I trying to win, I do hope it shows A little more love in my heart and light in my soul What this poem is about I have come to realize No matter how much it hurts the truth beats the lies
