Poem
I didn't do nothing I didn't do enough I was after fact; I was feeling inadequate; I felt like I didn't have a chance to help you out; I was deficient, faulty felt incompetent ; I didn't do anything I didn't do enough I was lacking incomplete ; Sketch and unequal spoke; I had listen to the wrong voice; Them "thoughts" rob me of my God given propose; Those feelings those thoughts; Speaking against my heart; The negativity, embraced me ; Inconsiderable I felt lousy; And yellow like a lemon; Borderline miserable; I bear weak I was barring scanty depleted short, I felt defeat; But I was caring, yet I felt sterile; In an instant I felt too little and unproductive; unworthy, not helpful walls me what's the use Why? Did I feel this way; Because I only had two ways; One was to encourage you- Be there for you- Embrace you- Be sure for you- Pray for you- Just be! But yet I felt in lack and incapable and unqualified unproductive; Found wanting I was spares and thought I was failing you; Because in the moment didn't know what todo or say to you; It hurts to see you hurt (hurting I don't like that on you; Where's my Father when I need Him A heart of mine is hurting and I'm bleeding When all these feelings of not; I paused and rested and said to myself (out loud) Whiles in my heart beats the sound.... I am not inadequate I did my part (I am here) if not but only three things I did I care I listen and I was there, I AM HERE ~a thought came to my mind I'm "enough" cuz GOD DON'T MAKE NOTHING INADEQUATE HE SPEAKS LIFE AND LOVE IN THAT IS MORE THAN ENOUGH~ 12/27/22 WRITTEN WORDS BY JAMES EDWARD LEE SR © 2022
