The Person I Use To Be-Want To Be Contest

I was quite sweet before the trauma of rape Afterwards I was no chocolate cake I was shamefully terrible in temper Took my issues with men out on them Having them fall in love with me Was like a game of cards with odds I didn’t even want to be married Only to have indigo itch scratched I did become quite a fan Of having multiple boyfriends Each like a tire on a car I used to get around my broken heart And of course I kept a spare man Eventually I grew tired of the lame game Of musical chairs using male frames I began to mature and become patient Motherhood came made me stop face My pain and I stopped hurting myself And perhaps other men as well I took a vow of chastity Sincerely was for the lord and me And somehow he kept me covered despite my sins I really did make amends within myself And now I’m fearful of hurting men I never tried to but was selfish then Now I am like a new healed heart I love the power of our God Who picks you up turns you around And places feet on solid ground I’m not perfect and as I age I feel happy that I am saved. I repent of my sins. Amen.
