Page Forty

Just another confession I'm still here despite my sinful 
nature, count that one as a blessing life is a still lesson 
and my teacher is still silent while I'm being tested and 
for the record every woman I encounter will always come 
second because I'm still trying to perfect the relationship 
with thou art in Heaven, so it seems nothing with me is 
ever what it seems even I agree that obviously I think I'm 
too much to please or is that just me, because of my past 
being deceived maybe I do have abandonment issues at 
the first signs of problems that appear to be big I rather 
leave but let's freeze frame, the past ten years I been 
chasing, the one who took me and yet still I forsake him 
so I'm pacing the lust of my flesh continue to put me on 
the fence so I'm no different from the world at times our 
sins are just different, so the question is do I stay single in 
Christ the path that I'm on doesn't guarantee I'll make it 
home every night, the cost is high and to die is gain 
forget living in comfort make disciples of all nations sick, 
blind, lost, & lame
