THE TESTIMONY OF A CHILD/CHOOSE JESUS FIRST
It breaks my heart to see all the violence and hatred going on in the world today. The young children won't reach their16birthdays if we as a whole don't come together and try to find a way to reach and save the children. We must choose Jesus first!!! God bless!!!
Doubts of worth
The doubts of worth reach down deep inside, The knife to twist and slide, Your soul it darkness and clouds, Veiling with it's insidious shroud, Turns your mind to thoughts of longing, Dreams of perhaps one day belonging, Your cries for help are

APARTHEID
This poem is about apartheid,
Africa in one glance 1980
I worked in Zambia for 6 weeks. The only things I took back to the UK were the clothes I wore. Many people have helped but not enough. I came home knowing that the Colonial days were much better for the people. Today we see the wars that I saw in the eyes of a child's desperation. My guess is that the boy is dead. in 1980 men lived to an average age of 35.........He would be about 41 Wars rage all over Africa. I did little more than write a poem
Hide
This was a moment where I had people try to "help me" when I was down one day. But sometimes help is never exactly what it seems... These are the words that never had a chance to dance on my tongue in an attempt to paint the picture of my dismay.
Elusive Love
Lying in bed at the day's final hour, I am troubled by the solitude in which I once found comfort. The sense of security that I once felt has dissipated to reveal a desperation unlike any other. As I close my eyes, I await sweet slumber and the fre
If only...
If a petal, was a portal, going back in time... If a leaf, was undoing, a really stupid choice... If a stem, was the words, im truly deeply sorry... Then I'd give you a flower, so you could forgive me.
K me
Not my poem but it's how i feel right now.
Cut Out Pain
The pain is in me The pain will not leave me The pain is all I feel in me Cut out my heart Cut out my emotions Cut out my pain Only in darkness do i find peace Only in darkness can I escape Only if this darkness could stay Cut out

Haiku-9

I Tried So Hard
I tried so hard. I tried my best. I gave you my all, And now there's nothing left. You stole my heart, Then tore it in two. Now I'm falling apart, And don't know what to do. Divided by decisions, Burned by the fire. Confused by your wor
I Think I'll Be There Tonight
I must be on a one way street there's no people to meet I look behind me no one in sight Guess I'm headed to lonelyville I think I'll be there tonight The speed zone is slow and alone Not a stop sign do I see no off road to the left or right

Repose
Oh how its left me My jingle-jangled poetry How it’s run its tired course Words that drove me with such pulsating force Cruelly left the words I knew Left alone those words so true Scratched, etched and pat, patted away Renderings of a naked

Sorrow
It is hard to watch a friend walking the path of a fragmented mind while sitting here on this beach of sorrow gazing out onto a sea of my tears watching someone who has become more than a friend walk the path alone

Where People Are Lost And Never Found

I am waiting for you to fail
I guess it's knowing what you are doing and why that's a good thing. I still hope unrealistically that someone would pass my test and be strong enough to stay. But then I would have to let them.

Elli's Song
A wife who loses her husband is called a widow, a husband who loses his wife is called a widower, a child who loses his parents is called an orphan. There is no words for a parents who loses their child, that's how awful the loss is. A tribute for every mother who lost their child.
If I Had A Home
I've got a house but Lord if I had a home I've got a car and Lord if I had a passenger I wouldn't drive alone And every day the early morning sunrise Is waiting for me to begin Out of bed and my knees sorely bend And for an hour I listen to
