A Proclamation

January 17, 2014

I cannot believe it, but yet I knew this would happen
This time of my life was like a map unwritten
The directions are there, just smeared in the years
You are the author of my story, narrator and all
I’m simply the one who has to follow what you wrote
Dancing day and day on life’s plank, taking risk for your name
Sacrificing some, but not enough
Evangelizing here, but can do more anywhere
I’m here to proclaim how amazing is thy name
God, the creator of this life I’m in, saved me from sin
He made me and He can take me away
But for now I’m here to stay
Stay and be what he created me to do
To walk the shoes that fight right for me
Now, what about you?

I found that poetry is the one and only way to fully get out what's stuck in my mind/ heart. A dear friend of mine encouraged me to write poetry and ever since then, I've written these poems. In less then a year, my poems have become well liked amongst friends and family. The first 15 I posted are the first 15 I did in a year's time. I write for me, and for other people who want to read them. If you don't like what I write, then don't be hateful. Only be critical.
