Poem
I woke up this morning with my life in so much despair I couldn't find my joy and my peace wasn't anywhere So many things happening and going on in this world It keeps me on my knees praying to my father above Hatred on the rise, strange thing happening everywhere You see things in life that you never seen before Things that was long hid coming from behind closed doors It makes me afraid because I don’t know what I’ll face next I don’t know what’s coming my way or what to even expect I don’t know what tomorrow may suddenly bring Will it be sunshine or could it be a great change I consider it a blessing just to see another day Happiness fills my soul when sunshine comes my way I wonder many times about the dreams in my head Are they trying to tell me something, or am I misled What is the answer to what’s going on in this world? What happen to the joy, what happen to the love I try to be uplifted in spirit wherever I may go Will I ever find strength; Lord I just want to know Maybe there is a reason why life is so tough Why the hill is hard to climb and the mountains so rough This is a pressing way just in life to survive It’s a struggle to lay down at night and the next day to rise I know where I come from but not where I am going Life is always a lesson that’s too hard to learn I can’t live the future by holding onto my past I can’t shed tears without expecting to laugh I don’t know if the life I live is only a test Even I fail sometimes when I try to do my best Since I don’t know much about these things And the future is further than my eyes can see Taking one day at a time will always be enough for me.
