Answer My Call (Full Story)

by manuel-hutchinson-iii

what a kind word he said. made a bullet rupture my liver. my skull cracked in two. It all started with I love you, And I love you too. If you would of told me this was wrong, I would of told you this is right. I looked into his eyes that night He told me he would never let me go. By his side I felt safe, They say love is blind, I say never judge a man, You will never know what you may find. Ravens, Doves, and a Cross. Watch the truth unfold. From that day on, He captured my soul. Now there I lay with my eyes closed Watching myself, dead. In disgust Not because I wasn't moving, but because I wasn't moving on up. To the sky. Now I finally understood, I was deeply in love with the devil in disguise.. And to think it took 7 read texts, 3 missed calls for him to find me. teardrops fell to my face as he placed his hands on my neck. They didn't tell me love is this powerful. " I want to be with you forever " Words I will always dread. He wanted to be black and blue, just like me so he put the gun to his head. Even though I was born innocent The gunsmoke filled my spirit. Blinded me, is what came from the sky Whispered a soft lullaby... God if you gave me one more chance, To turn back time, I would take everything back that night. When I looked into his eyes. Please hear my cry. I never knew these words had so much power, I pray that you equip me with strength, I know I ain't your best child My hands are too close to the fire. I'm still learning how to keep faith So please shield my heart with your armor. Forgive me for I have sinned, I didn't listen to the clear signs All I want is one more chance to do it right.... And here I breathe, A brand new life. ©MH
