My prayers to god dont get answered in time
but I guess thats his will
See inside my heart theres a cavity that miracles, good times and my mothers smiles were supposed to fill
Laced fingers, a bowed head
and the knee prints worn into the rug next to my bed
seem to serve no purpose
no more subconscious messages lord...right now I just need you to surface
my prayers feel worthless......
I feel I could gather 3 people right now!! and say a prayer in your name
we could all ask for simple shit and it would all be in vain, cuz nothing would change
God, is a just God.. fair in every way?.. just saying it kinda makes me confused
see how can you explain to a parent that its only fair that their child was raped, killed, abandoned or abused
Love..love is the breath of God (I love the thought of that)
and sometimes I slowly die of asphyxiation
so Jesus Christ...when you get a chance will you come down and do some CPR on my situation
As believers, we can make miracles out of anything, whenever the feeling hits ya
like you could say its a miracle that your leg is connected to your hip or that your fingers have a tip or that you found shoes that fit ya
BUT PEOPLE WITHOUT FAITH GET THAT....Shit I want some stronger stuff DONT YOU!!!
Like, I wanna wake up to all bills paid for the month and be able to use my check on something else
or be able to say "In Jesus name" & cure my headaches or quote a verse from the bible & cure Grandpa's health........................
God, You! Made! Me!
so You know, You-Gave-Me! this questioning soul
you knew I would think the story about Jonah in the whale and the talking talking donkey were outta control Un-BeLiEvE-aBlE
but i try to have faith... and I know Im being tested
but it would be easier if I could just get 1 question answered like,.. are the blessed the ones that simply.... believe... ignoring rhyme and reason?
and If so, then Father take away all my thoughts and subliminal conversations and say "go forth and see what I see son"
sometimes I think thoughts that maybe my mouth shouldn't say
and I usually call my mom when I start feeling that-away
and she in her loving sarcastic way just tells me to pray
i cant remember what lead to it but I remember telling her that I'd never seen the devil one day
and she giggled and said "well baby, paths never cross when your going the same way"
well we laughed a bit and I got some verses to read and hung up feeling fine
and now I think maybe its true what the ol'folks say
Maybe God dont come when you call... but he's always on time

Thanks Jackie !!!!
I didn't think anyone would read my stuff, since Im the new guy and extremely unknown.

I do open mic so I am very cautious about having my stuff read by others. Thanks for vote of confidence.

thank you, to all of you. I really never thought that anyone would really get what I write without me saying it. I really lack confidence in my writting skill so I usually never let people see it.
~you guys have really lifted a burden for me.
