Faith

Last few years 
I had so many fears.
Tears
I knew I was dying.
To myself I was not lying.
Dying alone made me afraid
In my brain I stayed 
Life is good
Must be understood 
I had to learn faith in me
After awhile you will see
Stop thinking of all the bad
It will only make you sad
Be glad. 
I did not care if I died
But I always tried 
To understand 
Your heart is the souls band
The rhythm of your heart beat
Is a treat. 
The music of life
Did not understand till I went under the knife.
I see now.
I'm learning how
To live again 
I am stronger for where I have been 
My life is not the sin. 
The sin is the no value in myself. 
No greater wealth 
Than life beating through your vains. 
Wash away the stains
I have no fear
But I know life should be held dear
So much I can do
This is true 
Only I can do this for me 
Hate 
Bad fate
Love is the way.
I think I am here to stay
I beat the odds they gave me. 
Do you not see. 
Do not be afraid to live
This advice I give
I am now strong 
Been in pain so long
In my heart there beats a song
I got this
Life is bliss
You can too 
Do not be blue
You got this as well
I can tell 
Life is great 
Changed my fate
As can you
I tell you true. 
God above 
Fills my heart with love
Makes me see 
The beauty there be. 
Just have to look
My life was not took
Means I need to write a book
Talking of love
From God above

Hope this is not dumb. Still under the drugs Dr is giving me. Four way bypass. First day of the rest of my life. 10th. Heart attack. But I have a chance at life now . Instead of days I now have years. No more fear God is near
