I remember running around trees with friends and family, happy
Before evil tried to trap me, all colors of skin spitting on me saying I should die
Started looking down ashamed of the sky, couldn’t explain it
And in my tears these days my childhood haunts without mercy
Verses and verses still feel dirty covered in curses
Heavenly Father reading my Psalms, nodding his head
Acknowledging how the enemy still wants Edmond to end up forsaken, dead
And I’ll write until my spirit is taken
And I’ll write crying out to God, patiently waiting
Even as this all appears to be nothing, a waste of time
God, I know you understand my heart and sacrifices bringing forth every line as I expose my weaknesses before you and all
An arm out for any fellow human climbing out of personal pits
Suicide wants fornication or even worse a marriage bringing death by incorrect logic Satanic carriage
She’ll smile as I suffer, laugh if I crash my car on purpose
Breakdance if I cry out for peace only to see demons surface
And I miss those trees, Lord God let me see as you see
I’m assaulted within and without
Poems for healing entering hearts and then readers see past fog and decay
And I pray for all, everywhere, under different flags, different communities
Be blessed with peace of mind, find unity
Before our trees are cut down, an unbootable computer only capable of shutting down.
