Real Love

They told me they loved me since early in my youth But through lies and deceptions I found their love far from the truth So i was left to my own devices, I had to find my own way I suffered losses and torment from vicious games people played Then at 27 years old I decided to take an unpopular stand And decided to swallow a bunch of pills I held for hours in my hands I awoke in intensive care with monitors measuring each shallow breath And there by my bedside waited the Angel of death. Then a light filled my cold dark room and it also filled my soul And a voice whispered from it, " Ive come to make your life whole." God granted me mercy and kindness As his spirit entered me. Im no longer troubled by this world for inside im set free. I dont claim to be perfect for im still riddled with flaws. I realize its not by my strenght but from all that he does. So if my story touches your heart how God set me free, He will do it for you too if he did it for someone like me.
