Mortal Player
I'm a very decent poet and I humbly know it
But far from becoming a lauded laureate
Yet, this shit here helps me to survive & thrive
Pride & creativity are what keep me alive
I tend to nose dive at times then I reascend
A Kamakazi poet won't be how I meet my end
I bend but won't break from the stakes of life's blows
Bobbing & weaving while staying up on my toes
No one truly knows what tomorrow holds in store
Could easily be knocking on Heaven's Trilock door
Will GOD ignore my knocks like he did my pleading prayer
As I venture fields of dreams as a hardened mortal player

We got to play the hand we are dealt. Get up each morning and face everything the day brings with the knowledge that, no matter what happens, we can always control how we respond

You're right. Our actions and reactions are the only things we're in control of. Appreciate your comments.

Those two lines were brutally honest and I felt them. How many of us have questioned our faith at one point or another during our lifetime when prayers weren't answered or the answers didn't make sense at the time?
Wonderful work sir.
Wonderful work sir.
