POEM: Lord, I’m Trying…

POEM:
Lord, I’m reaching… I’m here for you to save.
Please! I’m trying to find a brighter day.
Oh, God, I’m failing to make it my own way.
Father, I’m pleading the blood over my case…
I’m standing on the edge and looking out
Wondering if I fall, who’ll save me from the ground?
Well, here I am… dutiful, obedient, and staring down
Into a world that never wanted me around.
Life can be …

POEM: Goodnight, little cousin… rest in peace!

As short as life is, its lessons are long
We learn good from bad, and right from wrong
We take some things for granted; others, we prize
We say hello and sometimes too quickly, goodbye
We go through the motions, grind out the beat
We dance to life’s rhythm; we taste bitters and sweets
Life takes us on highs… and crashes to lows
But through all the trials, we’re eager for …

How do you go from hatred to acceptance?
From ‘I can’t’ to ‘I can do this’?
How can you love without forgiveness?
And let go with no resentment?
How can emotions be relinquished?
Harbored grudges be not remembered?
Can you repair a heart that’s tender?
Or walk away from one you’ve befriended?
Life can be so crazy how endings
Tend to be pathway for beginnings
That you never pictured those things bringing
one day you find …

What happened…
…to values…and morals…and kindness?
…to our priorities and ambitions?
…to our goals…our hopes…our dreams?
…to doing what’s right just because it’s the right thing to do?
…to standing up for what you believe, and being respected for doing so?
…to placing more importance on family than on self?
…to generosity…to loyalty…to dignity?
…to fidelity…to encouragement…to rationality?
…to the peace that passes understanding?
…to the love that knows no boundary?
…to sanctity…and positivity…and happiness?
…to faith…and …

Why do ignorant people
always tend to think they are the wisest??
Always tend to believe their opinions are the most valuable;
hold the most weight.
People are out of their minds these days!
Don’t try to push your idiocy on me…
the longer I listen, the stupider I become.
Get out of here PLEASE
All your education
and you still can’t touch me intellectually.
All your experience
and you still can’t rise above my mentality.
