I would post this in the poetry section but for now I don't want to use my username...Anyway, it's the content that matters, yeah?
The Stranger
He's a stranger to himself
His emotions are drained
Stacked away on the shelf
Where they lay contained
His spirit is lifeless
It died long ago
His life is a mess
He has nothing to show
What happened to you
That you became this way?
What did you go through
Why did you fray?
Can't you at least try
To reverse your fate?
Don't try to deny
That all you have left is hate.
Don't you even know
That you have a second chance?
Let your spirit flow
Let it spring into a dance.
There is a God out there
Whom you can turn to
If you just come clean and bare
And allow Him to heal you.
He's the only one left
Who can make you feel again
Even though you are bereft
He can help you laugh again.
I can't relate to you
You can't relate to me
It's over and through
So just let it be.
I'm not on your level anymore
Because I'm beginning to heal
I'm fixing up what I tore
And this time it's real.
So please don't drag me down
You don't understand
Your presence alone causes me to frown
Can't you understand?
I'm trying to let go of the past
And keep moving forward
I want to recover fast
And never fall backward.
But I also want you to be feel the comfort
Of being God's child
You no longer have to hurt
Because that feeling will become mild.
All you have to do is give your life to Him
Because that void can be filled by none other
Stop being so stubborn and grim
And realize that you have a Heavenly Father.
