Inadequacy Poems

Inadequacy is not an excuse in the kingdom of God

There are no excuses in the Kingdom of God
It is God’s Kingdom and 
He will provide for the situation

You have a coach
So don’t approach a situation
Without the Holy Spirit!

He advises, corrects, instructs, trains, tutors, guides
directs and prepares you for your assignment 

The Kingdom of God has everything you need while
You are on earth, so ask

Good For Nothing

Being proud of yourself isn’t enough,
When your loved ones don’t think so.
Thinking you’re tough and strong,
Yet you can’t handle the pain you know.

Every time life starts getting rough,
You bury yourself deep and low.
I try to do things right each time,
But feel handcuffed by winds that blow.

It’s freezing out here, and I’ve nowhere to go,
The cold

Perfectly Okay

I wonder if it's just me
The epitome of inadequacy
So dependent and incapable
Of doing just the ordinary

What is to everyone mundane
Skills ever so easy to attain
Seem to me wholly hearculean
While to be perfectly okay, i feign 

Every fibre within me aches
As each task demands multiple takes
Driving me to a desolate corner
Where I repeat the same mistakes

Steely Love

O Lord, whose heart so eclipses my own,
it is proper for you to draw and beg
a soul to come into the light you've shown;
the seed that plants is greater than the egg.

But at my finest hour, I'm but dim -
a shadow of my Holy creator.
The love I offer can't compare to Him,
and I can't ensure

Fearful of Inadequacy

I tell myself, abandoned by my own shadows long ago. Thoughts of embrace, but not the courage. I just desire to be appreciated for who I am even with my flaws. A black feather perches in my soul.  Dreams of shouts for freedom, my empty words echo emotions built and have died for a

Inadequacy

Sit and whisper to myself
Those things that I feel
Inadequacy and not up to it
But then I know that I survived
And will go on and feel alive
Go and shout it isn’t true
For you are better than that.

Inadequacy

I am trailing,
Teetering timidly
In your footsteps
That prove too big 
For me to ever fill.

Inadequacy

Thoughts that swarm inside my head,
Because of what she's made me dread.
So now I hear that laugh and die 
And see that smile and away I hide.
Her alluring voice just makes me break
Because a little part of me it takes.
My confidence and self esteem
In her perfect hands now gleam.
Soon my strength begins to wither
And my

Inadequacy

A silence speaks up at ungreen 
age for an unknown, finding 
                            dark matter in hiddenness
of sleazy light.

A dove in the valley of tulips
stops a flight for a

Inadequacy

One soul in a pool of millions,
Dreary pool with a spiraling drain.
My spirit has fallen into conformity;
United by wasted lives--
Society draining us like dirty water.
We are pathetic, deserve no empathy.
The slippery marble drains our souls,
I am one in millions.
Unable to escape the dark unknown abyss.
Except
Someone carefully scrutinized my struggle.
Gingerly afraid to touch any of the
