The Day is coming where there's no chances
The Day is coming when all my sins and failures crawl back to me
All the things I’ve suppressed mentally, physically will seep into the cracks of the foundation I’ve tried so hard to build
The Day is coming when my rejection of the truth will judge me… hurt me
Lord I’ve tried
I know I didn’t try hard enough
I lied to you to myself to everybody
I’ve build a temple for world
Where people can come in as they please
Breaking and wrecking everything I've tried so hard to build
Lord I’m done
For the day is coming where sorry won’t work
Where going on my knees and asking for forgiveness won’t do
Chance after chance opportunity after opportunity you’ve given me
And I've wasted
And each I've thrown back with shake of my head a drawl of 'no way' on my lips
All you’ve done is show me love and I return it back with rejection
I’ve lied cheated, hurt, embarrassed killed
Maybe not literally but killing is killing
Lord I’m scared that there is no salvation for me
That I’m just meant to twist and turn in the hot furnace, Lord
Facing and serving my time for all the decisions I’ve made against you
Isn’t that what I deserve?
Lord the Day is coming and I fear i won’t be ready
I fear the spirits and demons that lurk in every corner of my life
I fear the day when I will see Your face and you won't recognise me
Because all I’ve done has masked the beauty You created
I wish I knew
I wish I knew
but The Day is coming and I’m done for

I’m irritated
The look in your eye just feeds the growing demon inside
Every time you open your mouth meaningless words just put out
But those words act like fuel in a fire
Im irritated
The burn in my chest gets hotter and hotter and hotter
It's burning me now too
I don’t have an outlet, I need an outlet
Oh wait you’re right here
Let me scream out all the words you said to me
Let me lose this burn and ache in my chest and exchange it for peace
The price...your feelings
I'm irritated

EXAMS
What a simple,simple word
But in every child’s heart it brings fear
Doubt
Hurt
And a scathed esteem
EXAMS
What would we do without them?
Prosper
Succeed
Evolve
Nobody knows because no one has been given the right to deny it
To face the teacher, the educator, the life bearer and simply say No
To simply chose life, peace,happiness and sweet, blissful ignorance
EXAMS
Just like change,they’re inevitable.

Disappointment floods my veins
Anger brewing underneath the hurt, betrayal and double standards

Double Standards

Something that everyone can do, be
Irritation feeds on me because of you
Yes, I blame you
How far will people go for money
How far are you willing to bend your morals
Their being is:
To worship their ‘god’

They say one thing and do another
Further pushing in the knife they plunged, so deep

Double standards

Double life
Double you
Double the lies
Double the hate

At least when there 2 of you
My anger might just last longer
I know I forgive,  I always do
But, there comes at time where when I look at you
All is see is every single wrong deed you did to me
The way you plunged the knife deeper and when I finally healed
You did it again and again and again
My life a series of scars bred from hate, betrayal and hurt
And it all has to do with your:

Double Standards

I see myself being who I am
And still reaching for what I can be

I see myself  ready
Ready for obstacles,challenges and mountains that will be moved by faith.

I see myself...
Believe in yourself, even when others don’t. Sometimes we have to imagine ourselves where we want to be even if we aren’t there just yet.

Lord, I choose to trust in you
I choose to trust in your timing
Love
Sacrifice
Lord I choose to let go of today
And all its worries
I chose to believe in you
I’ll push past the pain,sadness,worry and anger
And focus on you
Lord I choose to stomp on the devil
Show him I’m not afraid, I remain unchanged
Lord, I choose to believe in you
So here I am Lord
Trusting in you
Show me you way, your light, your path
Let me be like the woman from your Word
Unwavering in her faith
And brave in danger
Lord I choose to breathe
To let go
Lord, your servant is here
She’s suffering,afraid, hurt.
But in you she will trust
A poem I hope will inspire you, that will remind you that God loves you all the time and that  he is readily waiting for us to ask him for help.

Fog
I know what I must do
I know I have to do it
I know I can’t delay
But what else can I do

I try and find the answers
Force the motivation
“It’s not there!”

Putting pen to paper
Still coming out empty

Stepping back
Observing the situation like I’ve been told
I still see no answers, no solution

Fog
It’s thick
It not only exists in nature
But in our minds

It hinders
“It’s a form of evil.” I’m told

Evil. Evil I rebuke thee!
