William Darnell Sr Poet Free verse

A King Was He

I need some help, I'm requesting,
That I understood, I believe
I was in this hitch of unworthiness
Because life had thrown me a switch.

The dope was nasty and pitiless
Trying to escape this world of hostility.
After what had happened that day
My most sinful fear was yet to come by play.

I wasn't being supportive when, 
I thought I was living in hell
I ask our God for some direction
Because of the brick I had thrown away.

Please show me the lesson, my Lord,
That I am supposed to learn
If he hadn't answered when He did.
I should have burned.

Though I felt a hand on me,
I knew my goal was to be intense
It was all about to be rhapsodized
With this, he was of nobility.
