Fallen
It's sad how I've fallen,
Fallen deep into the cracks
Buried underneath all these tempations
And it comes to show that I am now weak.
Weak of not being able to fight for myself anymore,
Weak of not staying true,
But also weak because I've let you down
Lord, I know I am a heavy sinner
And it feels like every time you call me
I always tend to never answer
You left countless voicemails on my phone
asking me to come back
And I just want to say that I am sorry
Sorry for being a Christian even though
my actions may be very sinful
I've tried to have that exact same image
But I guess it was never cut out for me
I've written these poems to explain all the
hardships that has never been crossed
I was once a lamb wandering along the fields
then suddenly, I'm lost
God, I silence my thoughts just so I could
hear your voice again
I close my eyes then open them right away
Because all I could ever hear is the laughter of the
enemy
He's constantly laughing in my face
As I sit in the corner so shameful and
unwanted
Not knowing my way of direction
Tells me that I have been defeated
But Lord I'm thankful that you've supplied me
with whatever I needed
I needed faith and love but even though my
walks may be crooked
I know your promises are from up above

I wrote this piece because I felt very alone and lost just shortly after being baptized a Christian. I kept falling into temptations and it made me realize how bad of a person I am. I wasn't so sure if getting baptized would help me become a better person but after awhile, I started to realize that it was just my surroundings influencing me. I hope that people would continue to have a straight walk with the Lord.
