In God's Hands


I saw the headlights

They were quick

One step

There's two dirrections I can go

Behind me, I'm whole

Forward, I'll lay in pieces

 

I wish my farewells in my head

Before I take a step

The headlights whizz past

Two paces away

 

And they're gone

Yet here I remain,

Whole.

 

I chose my life to be in God's hands

Not my own.

I'm just a high school student, looking for a place to write poetry. I often post things I used as assignments on here, but there's some things I write just for this place, as well. I'm hoping to better my skills with writing, even though I'm planning to go into nursing.
