This Lust Is Like Being Hooked On Drugs

I disappointed God by living a life where I should have died Many times often times I wanted to commit suicide Because of the shame that wouldn't subside Meeting people I didn't know My affections I couldn't let go  I could only imagine that it's like being on drugs I Only really wanted was for somebody to show me love Hooked on it like heroine Loving that thing God hates and so does most of the world Loving boys when it should have been girls Sometimes Most of the world does what i did as well But what do you do when your lust and your emotions Are boiling over burning like coal Or like a pot on the stove  And when people throw verbal blows  But don't you know that God will put a block on you Cause He will keep them away and keep them at bay I could have been destroyed and I should have been Cause God will give you over to your sin  Cause you don't know where I've been Both emotionally and sexually  My disruption was apart of my destiny The way to your destiny is pain Like child birth but dont sin against God keep God first Lest you be worse yea I know it hurts Don't let beauty of men and women devour you Or overpower you  love the inner you as well as the outer you

Well your first to lines, are true feelings to some. I found myself with them emotions at times. Oi,, well the poem is a bit confusing,, but, well enjoyed. I think we all behave in ways that are shameful. But, to have God in our hearts at all times, is hard not to feel bad when we know we are addicted to him and life's ways and temptations.. Liked this write a lot,, have a nice Saturday,, always miss.p.d.

It's heartbreaking to know there are many people who feel their lives are pointless because they are not loved, Anton. I have felt this way sometimes, but as you say if we "keep God first" we know that he wants us to surmount these challenges, not succumb to them. A sad poem, but the reader can feel the strength of your faith. Hope it carries you through the dark times. Thanks for visiting my work and welcome to Poetry Soup! Blessings and peace, Carolyn
