caught in the middle

Standing here,
But my mind wants to go,
Knowing the real truth,
But choosing not to grow cause,

Im so low,
I feel so ashamed,
Cause knowing what im doing now,
Will bring shame to hes name, If i...

Go and proclaim the gospel of Christ,
Telling people one thing,
Then bringing out the knife,
But its not right,

But im scared to step to the light,
Instead i step then fall,
Now living in this deep hole,
Where no one can hear me call,

But still im praying for all the people on top,
Not worrying about me,
Just letting me body rot,
But Gods still there,
Knowing that i got the faith,
But Lord help me now,
Cause my life is stake,

And all the chances you make for me,
Im so blessed,
But i'll probably blow it all again,
By getting into some mess,

Then letting people down,
I feel like a hypocrite,
But i cant admit to it,
But yet im so confused,
One day livng for God,
The next living for the sword,

I cant afford to lose you,
Having dreams of you coming back to earth to get your people,
But leaving me here,
Because i disappeared long ago,

Not choosing to no about you,
Or your son,
Now look what ive done,
I cant feel you anymore,
So there's no point to live,
Its too late to forgive,
It's all over,
So i'll never get to meet the one and only jehovah.

Romans 1:16- "im not ashamed of the gospel of jesus Christ".

Hi jess, Firstly i wont to say thankyou for reading and leaving a comment! i think for me personaly its sad that people dont comment on poems like this, it has so much meaning and it is reality expecally for christians this is a daily struggle and is what im trying to talk about and what i deal with each day. trying to live for God but then also turning away because of the pain and anger and shame we face everyday because of our past. Im really not bothered if no one likes this kind of writing, my words mean so much to me maybe beacuse ive been through what i write and no one else can see that, but i now this poem is just between me and God. thx mel

Your never alone

Silent voice your poem has meaning and truth to it. I found it to be very good. Do we have to explain what we write to anyone? You do not feel that way I hope. I see a couple of typos in there like hes instead of his and I will come back to check the others. You write like you write and trust me you wrote a good one and it is how you see it and how you feel it. Just remember it is yours also. do not be ashamed to write of anything in your poetry.. You had some good points in it!! Let nothing or no one take you away from what you write or think friend. Good job Mona xoxoxo
