Call Me No More Part 1

I lost my life; I’ve become a lowlife. I lost a dear friend; I fell in a depressing trend. I’ve said it so many times, now we can’t tell if it’s a lie. I would change my ways, but we still wouldn’t have better days. Oh, nevermind. Oh my, I’ve lost my mind. God knows I tried and defied. God knows I cried and lied. Call me a sinner, I’ll never be a winner. Call me a saint, I’ll never be bloodstained. Tell me it’s over; I know I lost my clover. I’ll still love you the same; I know I’m a shame. Call me your favorite, but I’m your worst fear. Call me the worst, but I’m always here. Tell me it’s over; I know I lost my clover. I don’t want you to hurt; you’re my one and only friend. It’s all that I can say, I mean it till the very end. So I’ll be on my way because I know I can’t stay. I finally put it all together, we’re better off without each other. But nothing really lasts forever. And you weren’t really my brother. I had to make a choice that was not mine, I was just following my instincts. I had to say goodbye for the last time. And then our love went extinct. I kept my whole heart in a suitcase, I couldn’t deal with all the pain. Never really stayed in one place because I could feel the hurt in my veins. Maybe that’s the way it should be; just me and no one else. You know I live my life like a gypsy, so Imma get up and be myself.

So glad u r part of PoetrySoup. I have always written, & must paint to make some art. You have been led to the light by your instincts; sad some relationships must be history. Let us quietly, silently pray for each other ... God KNOWS . And yes, His love is yet to be written about. When u r ready .... rise, RISE!

I wrote a comment for this piece Destiny, but it went to another cute poem by Chatty Kathy! What do I do ? (Powerful write here, Destiny, and sad too, I asked, "Could you see yourself as an intended good work by the Creator"? He does think I am "beautiful" though I do not always agree. He's such a good Father. amen and shalom, A Deo
