Do not cry as I lay here dead
Do not sigh as my body lies in its bed,
There is no need for your bereft
I am no longer here, as my soul has left.
...
I finally ended my soulful search
I found myself a church,
From my face I assuredly removed my smirch
Today, at the Church.
...
I am blessed
To all I have confessed,
I have air to breathe
And I have eyes to see,
...
It's okay to cry when you get hurt
But, then wash your face, your honor don't desert,
Pick yourself up off the floor when you are done
You don't belong there, your life has begun.
...
Sophia do not weep
As you preciously sleep,
Daddy's not far away;
For you to pray.
...
Instead of asking and looking on my search
I instead am going back to church,
It is where all my answers will be found
Indeed it is where I am soulfully bound.
...
I was from drugs and temptation
And also from anger and frustration,
I was from dares and also a weakness
And also from pressure and a meekness.
...
Last night was our very first date
And I must say that it was great,
She wasn't a tease, and I was at ease
Not once did I hesitate.
...
I thank you Lord for the food we're about to eat
I thank you Lord for the drinks and the bread and the meat,
Thank you Lord for all that you have given me
I especially thank you Lord for my friends and family.
...
When everyone stared,
I truly cared.
When everyone else pondered,
I never not once wondered.
