2 a.m. a new poem...

 

Though not far, or maybe right here

The same feeling, always seems to appear

Whether I’m lost, or maybe I’m found

I know the highs and lows will eventually come around

 

Looking for stability, God gives me hope

Finding a purpose and reason, a reason to cope

A reason to cope with the pain that I feel inside

A reason to deal with the emptiness I subside

 

A reason to reach higher, higher than I can comprehend

Hoping to bridge a path, a path that is hard to mend

Hoping to abridge a path, one that I have left a stray

Here I am again, on my knees I pray

 

Appears to be a cycle Lord, one I don’t understand

Why do you keep protecting me? I definitely should be banned

Banned from your love, banned from your sacrifice

As much as I know what is right, I continue to entice

 

I entice those around me, leading them into sinful ways

Ready to be renewed, renewed to purify my future days

Though I have struggled, my road has been rough

It is time to focus on you, I have had enough
