Short Backslide Poems

Rain, snow, falling dew,
Washes away filthy souls...
When gone,sin reversed....

in the past found that 
the mind's eye would 
continuously backslide
between the rational
and the irrational
realms of thought
a tug-of-war
a back and forth
movement within
the land of emotional limbo...

Became because
Background bedbug
Boldface bookcase
Blackmail blacklist
Misspoke backstroke
Bellboy below
Blacksmith bluefish
Backside backslide

lapses in judgement 
lost footing 
slipped up 
fell backwards
backslide downwards
strayed away from
path that had 
been lead out 
reverted within 
became old version
of self momentarily 
happens whenever 
your around...

Lord be my guide
Help me not to waver or slide
Show me how I can stand and not cry
Let me not run nor hide
Rid me of all hate and pride
Teach me how to be a submissive bride
So that my husband may not backslide
And cause our family to divide....

I'm back;
Self love is in the air;
Fire up now I'm on track;
Boy test me if you dare 
but I found that life hack;

Shining.
inner light with no bounds;
That's what you see lifting
me into the storm clouds;
Any doubts left dying;

Inside
I have faltered before;
Uncontrollable tide
raging inside my core;
Never again backslide....

"... and what of me ...?"
"Your fate will be defined."

Don't know if I'll see those pearly gates
I've lived in sin thus sealed my fate
forgiveness came redeemed my soul
rejoiced to heaven tried not to fold
but I erred and fell and did backslide

my soul kept running. no place to hide
I kept the faith returned to the Word
stayed the  course with help from the Lord
I lived in sin, at last I'm free
I can see those pearly gates ahead of me...

My Boss never forces me what to do,
gave me free will so I can choose,
paradise permit,
or cease to exist,
He by my side I have nothing to lose,

He's always around when I backslide,
knows when I'm sinful and full of pride,
sin disrupts,
He never gives up,
Jesus by my side till the day I die.



Psalm 46:1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in times of trouble~...

I walk a lonely path,
Running from his wrath.
But I'm not really running,
He has already found me it is clear,
I pray for my sins to disappear.
for his love to be near,
When I don't hear his voice I start to weep,
Then I feel his warming touch,
To my Faith I do clutch.
His forgiveness I crave,
I'm no longer feeling so brave.
Up mountains, I've clawed....
Resting on my shoulders....The Love Of God....

Things look  grim for the career crim,
  who has hopes of becoming a kingpin
As more are dobbed in,
I  am hopeful this will help us win,
When we throw the locks in the bin,
And Kick up such a din,
That more doors are kicked in 
As covid 19 has taught us what it takes to win,
And who best to vote in.


If we wear our new habits with pride,
And don't backslide,
We will push the crim aside,
As we rush outside, 
With numbers on our side....

We wear a smile to hide,
the tears we wear inside.
Our laughter we have applied,
feeling it will be our guide.
Life is but a wild ride,
filled with how we have lied.
One's beliefs can be set aside,
when one choose to backslide.
Have lies been our guide,
watch out it will make you cross-eyed....

But, if I backslide this year
Please, do not cast Me
I know that they will
Many stay around especially for that.

But, Pray for Me
Please, Pray for Me
I know not much about this route
Am only working to be my best
Help me to do just that.

Several Many we’ve cast
That a word of prayer would have saved
And a loving arm could have restored
My tendencies get complicated, even to me
So, if I seem to slide, I’ll need your balance.

J-ust stand by the Lord, 
U-nder His endless power; 
L-et His righteousness reign
I-n your life to obey, not to
E-rr.

A-im to stand by the Lord, 
N-ever ever turn away; 
N-either backslide nor wane as you wait for the great day.

M-erry month of warm July, 
A-t the thirty-first break of day; 
G-et up and hold a prayer, 
S-aying, 'Please guide my way'.
I-nstead of sitting with the wicked, 
S-ave yourself from satan's sword; 
I-n spite of accusations, just stand by the Lord....
