Paul Bagz Poet Rhyme

A Prayer, a Poem, or Whatever This Turned Into

Tears are the prayers that can't be spoken
Love of God is love the can't be broken
Dreams are wishes for God to see
Thoughts are ways God talks to me
The devil can talk through thoughts too
Baptism makes those thoughts anew
Confession clears those thoughts of grime 
But you must clean them more than one time

The devil isn't all horns and fire
He shows up as whatever you desire
He floods your brain with pride and power
He won't stop until there is none to devour
He'll be a dream, whatever you need
He'll give you everything, fill you with greed
He will take when you are at your lowest
He'll catch you when you are at your slowest
There is only one thing you need the most
It is the father, the son, and the holy ghost
Only those three can stop you from sin
They always conquer, they always win

Now I sit here, thinking about these verses
Is it a prayer to God, or the devil's curses
Is it a plea for help, or a cry to God
Is it a real feeling, or just a facade
I want to say a prayer thst can't be spoken
I want to, but there's a streak that can't be broken
I can't let a tear slip even for my own good
Even if I'm trapped on some piece of driftwood
Even if a bomb would blow me to bits
Oh homework oh homework you're giving me fits

Nature's first green is gold
But this green is getting old
The leaf subsides to leaf 
So Eden sank to grief
I can't  have my way
Nothing Gold Can Stay

And as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame
There is not a chance he could 
Stop and take the blame

O Captain, My Captain
I wish you were here
The ship is anchored safe and sound
We miss you very dear
The end is near
Trumpets I hear
The angels all exalting

Once upon this midnight dreary, I'm feeling lost, weak and weary
I feel sick in my stomach waiting for more
My time has come, I hear the knocking at my door
But there's just some bird there saying, "nevermore"
