Forgetting.


How quickly I must die I must let go of my life. I see all down eternity I must let go of me. What do I have to hold onto here? Is there somehing more I could hold dear? I must let go of me. At first it was easy. The choice ws easy Oh so clear. Then, I got complacent. I forgot what sacrifice was. I let my life flow through my fingers But mopped it up again With dirt stained rags. I forgot why I did it. I was faced with a choice. Me or You. I chose You. I'll never regret it. But God I'm scared, That I will forget it. I am not a big girl I cannot save myself. I cannot walk independent I cannot do this myself! I need You. Not just to remind me, But to constantly be with me. Not just to define me But to live within me. Oh God please don't leave me.

I want to write good poetry, lyrical powerful poetry about God. So whatever I write that is lyrical, powerful and moving--Does NOT come from me, but from Him. I take no credit other than that my fingers typed it.
