Talking to a friend

As I sat down with my friend
To talk we began

One on one
Open conversation

A bond of trust
A must

Expressing her lost
Letting it out like a water fall

I understood and Responded with a nod
I will tell her what I saw

Your Choices
Are influenced by someone voices
Or by your free will

So much noise
You can not think clear

The way you feel
You just want life to disappear

When you look in the mirror
You break down into tears

Your life is broken like glass is shattered
Hopeless and in despair

These words I would like to share
Because I care

I have been there
Confused and afraid

My life I almost took away
A second chance I was given on that day

I fell a sleep that night
When I woke up I felt broken inside

I understood what I had done to myself
That’s when I started crying out for help

I was tired of the way I felt
Tired of being wrapped up in the devil’s belt

Tired of being a mess
Tired of feeling depress

For three days I rode the bus
Thinking and to God, I was speaking

In change, I was in search
Invited to go to church

I learned the meaning of the cost of love
That a man came from above

He took all my pain
He forgave

All my wrong were wiped away
I was never the same

He was whipped
He was mocked

They placed a crown of thrones on His head
Hung on a cross unit He was dead

They Pierced His side and He bled
Into hell, He descends

To take back the keys of death
No longer will the devil control our flesh

On the third day, He was resin
To give us all back life’s breath

In Him, we find our rest
In Him, we find new life

This what I told my friend
Come, believe and confess

Put your trust
In Jesus Christ
Amen
