My Potential

Patience…ladies and gentleman I am now lacking patience Without patience I am impatient see? With this hole in my virtues I now have a vacancy. Maybe I don’t or maybe I do? Maybe I do and I just don’t know. Great…not only am I missing a virtue But I am also slow. What…now… What did I miss? Someone tell me Because being ignorant is not bliss!!! I used to think My poetry was like a kiss That could give chiiills That was when I was overflowing with lyrics That were ready too spiiill Spill off my tongue And into the minds of listeners My words gave hope To internally free prisoners What I need to do now is Dig down inside myself And pull out my pen or pencil I am a perplexed poet Who doesn’t realize his potential But that’s so essential To the point of success That’s what I want to reach But I don’t realize that I have skills No one can teach I’ve been blinded by the enemy What I fail to realize Is that Jesus Christ is my remedy, Philippians 4:13 states I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me Despite my transgressions And my Lord has revealed to me All of my imperfections I have an untrained gift That’s what makes me special That’s what makes me…me I once was blind But now I see But I must over come all obstacles Both physical and mental And overcome the barrier of Me not realizing my potential.
