DEEP REFLECTIONS
Looking back on my life
Wondering on my survival
From near Death to Life
Been criticized
Names called beyond my own
Shouted stupid to my face
I say how did I make it?
Wasn’t easy
No joke about it
Complexed to say the least
Sometimes I feel I am not respected and being outcast
Some people feel I should be Dead
They say I should be in a grave forgotten
There were times I felt I wanted to commit suicide
As a Writer/Poet devoted, but is it worth it?
I have been recognized at times, but no real tall order
Then I had to stop and really think about myself
My Grandmother would often say to me, God puts us all on Earth for a reason and purpose
Being created is no mistake nor by accident
A mission that God wants us to fulfill for him being his will
Encouraging someone else who is going through
No matter what people say or think
They can’t change who I am and why God put me here
They are stuck in their own jealousy, and don’t want me to accomplish nor succeed
God is leading me to proceed
Negativity from the rebel
I must stop putting myself down when God is helping me stand
All that matters is that I am favored by God and not the haters
To all the haters, find your place in life as mine is aligned today, tomorrow and well into the future
No more pity party for me
Just fulfill and live out
The Lord I live and die.
