Untitled
I'm scared of tomorrowSo i can't live today
The things that are happening
Just can't be explained
From the friends that i had
Who have kids of their own
To the people i knew
Who since have passed on
It takes a split second
To go back in time
My memories bring me back
To when i was a child
Things I'm confronting
Are bigger than i
I can't come to grip with
It so i sit and cry
Crying does little if anything at all
So i crawl back to my dream world
Of safety and warmth
I abruptly awake only to find
I can't live in the past
There's only the here and the now
Yet i console myself with a poem
I read i say it each night before
I go to bed
"I cried cause i had no shoes till
I met a man with no feet"
In other words i can live with
My ailments whatever they be
Out there somewhere lives
Someone worse off than me
A fear overcomes me but i know
I'll be fine before i turn out
The lights i put my trust in GOD
