From Upcoming Poetry Book- "Conversations With God"

"Conversations With God"

Forgive me God,

I've lived life as a sinner,

Kept my hands clean,

Yet they consider me

To be guilty by affiliation,

I speak to them,

Try to give them hope,

An opportunity to

Dream for more,

Obtain their goals,

This pain in my

Heart won't diminish,

The sadness doesn't

Seem to fade away,

I pray,

I repent every day,

Rejoice when I'm

Around my loved ones,

They don't understand

What angers me,

The pain of my past

Won't drown the

Blessings that are

Sure to come,

I feel your love,

Your strength

Protecting me as

I'm moving in & out

Of these filthy streets,

Keep paving a way for

Me & I will walk on proudly,

This is me,

A work in progress,

I'm a saint,

I'm a sinner,

I'm not perfect but

I know...

I'm worth it!
