Hold On

Don't let this moment break ur future steps
Hold on, don't break for others pleasure
Can't u see that each bad moment opens new experiences
Ma man don't set your  eyes on one particular trophy 
Put your heart on a life target, as u hope for the best
Don't let the rope get hold of your neck; suicidal thoughts
U'll put ur mother on an eternal life sentence of guilt,pain and depression
Would have death given you the peace of mind you need?

These moments are part of the memories you make on the streets
Life is sometimes unfair, but what choice do you have?
God has a reason He put you on this cold world
He could have chosen to leave you where you were
Don't fall onto the temptation. Do your routine prayers
God forgive me for I haven't prayed in days
Though I feel Your presence each moment I walk on top of the ground and below Heavens 
I give thanks for always holding ma hand on these moments

Part of ma shadows, a second poem about my life in misery
Dark moments have become darker days as I walk in the face of the living
Each minute has been painful
The sense of humour has what has kept me moving
Hold on ma man. Don't let go
For God hasn't began using you though you feel exhausted
U can imagine what He has planned for you.
