Confused about my actions

by Chelsey   Aug 11, 2006


Here I am; a teenage girl
Wanting so badly to change the world
Here I am; a lonely heart
Waiting for a true romance to start

I made a promise to God last night
That for 12 months, day and night
I wouldn’t get into a relationship
I wouldn’t let a kiss approach my lips

For a whole year I say here I am
I am not running, I will not scram
Use me Oh God, for this year I am yours
I’ve put aside the boys, I’ve closed those doors

Why is it I am confused, about the decision I made?
It’s an action that not many teens display
But here I have been waiting for a love so strong
And I made a decision that lasts for so long

I throw my hands up and still surrender to you
I know that you’ll use me and help me to pull through
I’m proud of my decision but need to be reminded
That if I guy comes along I shall not let myself be blinded

I made a promise that I truly want to keep
I don’t want to show that I’m fake or I’m cheap
Allow me to be a good leader, a Godly demonstration
Allow me to be strong oh God and not give into temptation

*I made a decision through church and signed up for a "not to get into a relationship for this whole year"...so August-August and just be Gods for this whole year and try and do things for him..like mission trips and things in our community...of course right after I made the decision I got asked on a date and I'm not sure if I regret my decision or not :-\...I just don't want to be like all the other teens which is why I made the decision I did*

    Wow what a powerful promise and poem to match. I think its very admirable the decision you have made Chelsey, if love is real then it will still be that once you have finished doing what you need to do within yourself and with your God. I really do respect your faith and love the way you are so devoted and proud of it and encompass it into all areas of your life...its a blessing in itself and I am very proud my bubba titta xoxo
