Sorry I blasphemed

by muizz (Mark)

CC BY-NC
Lord how big is your ears Are they small as heaven Can they hear pure tears Each drops count seven Enough for a fish pond But if not the earth hear the less fond As their tears doth What's your proper name I've called every 967 But none answered the phone Is there still a way to heaven Mabey my lines faulty I'll borrow the blessed neighbours

Im a seventeen year old who had a passion for writing since the 4th grade I thought it was going to take me somewhere seeing that I was the only boy who couldn't play sports who was born with a soft soft voice and remains misunderstood I have spent my childhood trying to escape every comer of it yet still I have gotten nowhere I still have big dream like making children's dream come true and going to America
