Feelings Switch GIF - Feelings Switch On GIFs

LIGHT-SWITCH I was ignored in the light So I hid in the dark I was shamed and sly So I told myself a-lie Full of despair, now I grown out my hair Like Samson my strength in follicles My feelings recreational Neither longer truth nor dare This chapter in my life sparks Memories no longer in the dark For you see I am a sinner And now I’m coming out of the dark You see I’m saved and forgiven and now I see the light My life is like a Light-Switch, that I turn on and off My love is like a Light-Switch, that I turn on and off My eyelids are liken a Light-Switch which turns on or off Unlike my feelings for God and Our Lord I will serve Him in peace and when I’m distraught Unlike myself you see God’s not a light-switch, for He doesn’t turn on nor off 10/28/19 Written words by James Edward Lee Sr. 2019© Written for class assignment (WIPS) North Omaha Writers Group (NOW)
