What Am I?

What is a girl who trusts in God? Me, a tall rhythmic girl Curls on my head who rocks the world Tan and brown eyes A crooked smile with a flair I’m the one who’s always there That is a girl who trust in God Why is laughter the medicine of the soul? Questions for time that only time knows But with the right voice And words of irony All can see what is funny The young child within comes out But remember You don’t stop laughing ‘cause you grow old You grow old cause u stop laughing Judgment hour is all around Peers of judgment coming out In your face cause what you’re about Bang! Peers of judgment slam the gavel Grind you deeper into the ground Peers of judgment and peers of harassment Wrong eyes, clothes, hair Friends, family, house If your not like them then what you about? Marriage, kids, a husband and a dog All things I see in my future What I hold close to my heart Softly stroking my sons hair My husband’s hugs humble my ways Time passes as I watch my family grow Growing into the family I’ve always held near But always and forever religious I will be I am a girl who trust in God That is me.
