Growing up, I had lots of friends
Joy in laughing, communicating and playing games
Happy times
But as time went on, friends moved away like a drifting tide
It was as if they were trying to hide
They began to not call
I was no longer hearing from all
Family began to treat me like a loss sheep
At least I had my self-respect in my soul to keep
Coldness began center around me
It was the feeling that so called friends and family were giving
I don’t pity myself
I am not like everybody else
My life has freshness and newness
Every day, I never know what to expect
But that is good thing
Prosperity always breathes within my soul
You might think I am ordinary
If you are uncertain, try using the dictionary
Reject can have negative effects
It’s nothing I did
If so, God forbid
My life is surrounded by goodness to which I associate
Bringing love and encouragement
I laugh through the pain
It doesn’t make me lame
I don’t complain
My heart is solid as a rock
I am treated cold by many
Friendship, if any
I have been deleted
Yet not defeated
Commitment is my document
I can’t look back, but move forward
I can’t pause, I must be onward
Life is short, and no time to sit and worry
Life is its own devoted story
It’s the reason I continue to achieve no matter what
My mind in thinking
My ability in composing
My voice in communicating
Pillar of Strength
Extends on all lengths
No stopping me now
Mission with a promise
Being honest
The Lord has taught me well
In case you haven’t noticed, the world can tell
Mind control, the people understand
No matter with friends or woes
I will live my whole life out
No explanations
Life control, I totally took whole
Complete
Figure out
