I HAD BETTER DAY'S


I Had Lost Better Day's 

I sit here so isolate with so much on my mind; 
Oh how my heart cry's out to you Jehovah , 
Your words hold my poor heart in the right  
Way to go , 
I was so lost and a lone , didn't have nothing I 
Could call my own , I didn't even have a home , 
Some time ago I had lost my way of better days; 
why? 
what have I done? I taken my eyes off of the true 
God ; and started walking in darkness , I thought 
I could do things on my own ; 
Know I cry out ! Please don't leave me ,I need you  
Jehovah , I love you I was so wrong to think I was 
Better on my own without you to lead the way for 
Me to walk , 
This torture of this old darken world ; destroyed me 
I can't sleep, My heart keep taunting me , For doing  
So wrong , This pain that I feel goes on night and day 
kills my laughter, encourages more pain; and keep's 
Me so deep in depression  of my wrong's , 
My soul cry's out like a old sad love song of long ago  
When psalms of David cry's to come home , 
Jehovah find me ! tell me that everything is going to be 
alright , That you are by my side , 
Just know Jehovah ; That I have made a stupid mistake 
And I will keep walking in your ways of better day's . 
The beating of my heart,and the throbbing in my brain 
Was as if I was about to die to an empty place lost men  
Call home of ever lasting ; 
I had to cry of a reality check , This was not were I wanted 
To be ! My heart belong to Jehovah of everlasting love  
From heaven above ,  
I had to cry many day's and lonely night ; Hoping and praying 
You would hear my cry's , 
I had felt you don't want me , But just then I heard a voice say  
In the dark pouring rain , Saying I gave my only begotten Son 
Jesus to die for you , and for all mankind , 
So just then I could feel my heart mined ,And I new Jehovah head 
My cry and told me to live life right in his eyes, From that time on  
I moved on teaching others about Jehovah and his law's .

To all my readers you may see that their are grammar errors in my old writings, but these writing are from the 90's ,2000's. I truly didn't think anyone was readying my work . so I just started writing out what I felt and made my pains a story and poems . I had re post these poems and stories all over the internet and I keep them also in file so no one can ever say my work is theirs . I have kept my work as they are just for others to see where it was I started my writing at . The pains are so real not even a game ,The life I had lived I would never wish upon no one . I like to say to all who are taking the steps for change in their life congratulations to the new open doors God bless you . You may have seen my photos on the internet and my writings on Poetry.com and poem hunter etc. you may have seen the hate that others have given to me about my work and my beauty of who I am . But as you can see I will never let the haters Stop me from doing what I love . So I say the same to all of you write your own words and let your heart speak to all your readers . I hope you can understand why I haven't made changes in my work at less not the old ones . My old work are left as they are for me to always remember where it all came from . God bless to all who reads . Lilly Emery /Judy Emery
