Thoughts of a Troubled mind pt.1

 

Am I being punished or prepared?

I’m not sure so please excuses my fear;

I’m just a little scared.

It’s hard trying to keep moving ahead

When constantly I have visions of myself dead

At these moments all I can do is bow my head

Then thank You for all the blessing You’ve allotted me.

 

For instance when those brothers,

from north Philly plotted on me

And Your angel came down and comforted me ,

And told me that it wasn’t my time to see Thee.

 

And when I feel like people don’t understand me

Then I wind up hating me

Then you reveal all the glorious things around me

I think the verse goes “I was blind but now I see.”

 

So at the end of the day I feel like I am being prepared

For the many struggles ahead

But I know You’ll be there

Just out of sight so I can’t see

And what is destined to be shall be

Until I reach that goal

My sprit and soul is focused on You to make me whole.

Great piece. It is as real as real can be. Dont ever change you Mr. Scott because the world would miss words the tell all without regret. A powerful poet.

Very well said! You view God similarly to the way I do as well. Felt, but not seen. I love the spirituality combined with real life, "North Philly cats plotting" mixture!

Very well crafted and honest. Great pen!

This was an emotional read for me. It sounds like words from my dear brother lately.
This is very real/raw! Thanks for sharing 'TRUTH' with us.
