[hometext] => A girl i know died in a car accident not too long ago, i hadn't seen her for a couple years....i was thinkin about the last time i talked to her, and i wrote this.
[bodytext] => Lord, my life hasn’t been the best And I know I’m not first in line for heaven I’ve had an empty heart for so long I haven’t spoken to you since I was seven. I’ve never really prayed before And I doubt I’m doing it right But last time I saw her, she fought for you And I don’t want all this to end on a fight I’m not angry at you for taking her And I really don’t know why I don’t know why I don’t hate you For taking away her life Instead I have noticed, Lord How happy she was all those years How her heart was so warm, she loved so many How she could brave this world without fear. She always tried to save me, Lord And I’m really still not sure about this But I’m willing to put out the effort To grant my friend’s last wish. I don’t think I’ll read the entire bible. And I’m not sure I’ll even go to church All I know is that, I know you’re there And somehow you saved her from sadness and the hurt. I’m still a little scared of leaving The dark chamber I’ve been trapped in for so long And I still don’t know if I can be who she thought I could I’m not really honest, brave, or strong. But I feel I’m going to breakdown, Lord And so I’m knocking at your door I’m hoping you’ll forgive me For not putting my faith in you before. I’ve been confused for so long now Thinking I’m tougher than the world. But I’m cracking under so many burdens And I think she’s saved me, that girl. So I wanted you to know, Lord I’m going to try my best. Maybe someday I’ll feel, as she did And slowly come out of the darkness.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
