THE WALK


Oh how hard it is to turn one's steps around 
I sat and I pray for this lost and pain to go away 
As I see many walking astray , 
Oh how this pain cuts me like a knife , 
Now one shall come and another one must go 
This is a place I don't belong , 
As any other I must go on the break of dawn to 
Save another soul from doing what is wrong 
I must teach and lead another in to know Jehovah's 
Ways to walk ; 
But in my heart I cry out for the lost sheep to find 
Their way back home , and for them to know they 
Are not walking alone if they just Call on his name 
And Jehovah will make way , 
You can hear the lost cry out for love but they will 
Never find , the whole night through no love will 
Dwell and they are all cried out ; 
If they can survive this long winter and let Jehovah 
God delivers what needs to be taken place in there 
Lives ; 
One day they will get the see ''Parricide '', 
The pain will go away and they will never have to see 
Another sad lonely day . 
If they walk in Jehovah's way .

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
