Lost in the world.

by Jeff   Feb 21, 2005


Born to suffer,that is what they told me,
Tears,sweat and blood,that is what I have all known
Where and who are my parents?Perhaps I will never know
Was born in the jungle,to grow up on the street
Come rain come sun,they all belong to me.
The dark side of the world,that is what I have seen
Hunger and starvation,that is my daily life.
Sometimes I cry, and just wonder why.
Who makes this life,is it God or devil?
The preacher keeps yelling,God wants the best in me.
Down I hold my head,isn't the preacher just lying?
No food no shelter,does life worth anything?
From far I hear the voice,suicide is the solution
I refuse to hear,I still wanna live
Shall we make it?The question remains.
I love watching tv,I love being a child.
Life has lost a meaning,somebody tell me what to do
Tell me soon,soon before I go
Because I am lost in the world.

    Hello-

    God does want the best in your life-What we do not realize is, life doesn't get all better on it's own. God waits for us to make the first move-When we agree to fight this world, and decide on wanting to truly LIVE-And agree to take God's hand-Then, God will begin to play His role. He will turn you around, take you different paths-open doors, even windows-to show you the bright light of His personal Love for You. All You gotta do-is accept and begin to plan-Ask all the time for God to Guide you. God Bless....and Good Luck!

    Love,

    Libby
