My Life

From the beginning my life
There has been an assignment against me
The enemy tried to destroy me
Steal my joy
Steal my piece
And all that was meant for me
There were days when I didn’t have
Food and I could see the look in my mother’s eyes
I’ve had to endure the abuse no child should see
I’ve been treated in ways many could not
Understand
I’ve lived in fear and soaked pillow in tears
But throughout all my struggles, my mamma
Taught me how to pray and trust God to
Keep along the way
