Poem
My Apology At times we run out of words Sorry may never be enough in - Acknowledging our faults Our shortcomings covers us with fear So we hide in caves-covered in wounds of failure Today I have strength to say sorry Hoping to obtain mercy Hoping to be forgiven for all our and my shortcomings We are Folks with faults Life is faultless but folks who live that life are not flawless Dig deeper into my soul and spirit-you still find iniquities I can speak right but spit self-righteousness Even the truth I am telling you- Is just a lie that is engraved beneath my skin My actions are often just a reaction to my dysfunctional The battle of mind between apprehending and application Hoping to obtain mercy Hoping to be forgiven for all our and my shortcomings At times the bed I sleep on was just created for me But they say as you prepare a bed-so shall you lay on it I was taught a perpetual lie as the truth-born in error Raised from dysfunction environment-trying to be functional – In my words and actions – often come short I have been drinking from my ancestral calabash before conception So I perpetually walk in error-because I always look back I speak with sincerity hoping to rise into perfection My ability and disability are at war Hoping to obtain mercy Hoping to be forgiven for all our and my shortcomings
