The Life I Used To Know
3/19/2011
In the life I used to know
I was called names like….well…you know
In the life I used to know was never my own
Being whistled at by men with no respect
But still I didn’t reject
Loved the attention,
Love the fame
But thinking about it now
I hold my head in shame.
But now that I have grown
The men they flirt
So that they can get under my skirt
But the life I know now is Christ
I don’t mind repeating it twice
One again
The life I know now is Christ
The life I used to know
I was buried in pain
Wanting so desperately
To come get out of the rain
The life I used to know brought me hundreds of tears
Cost me so many years of happiness and joy
Left me an abundance of fears
couldn’t believe the pain it caused
Running behind a boy.
But the life I know now is Christ
The Life I used to know was hard
Feeling like at times I was being feathered and tarred
I also felt as if my mind was running yards
But somehow my yards
Turned into meter
Which lead me to building faith like Peter
Walking on water may be impossible for you
But you can’t tell me what my God can’t do
I can move mountains with the faith that I have
Too bad many may choose to laugh
At my dress, my hair, my looks
Or joke because I keep my head in this book.
The life I used to know I cry and fall
But now that I know that Christ covered it all.
The life I used to know was hard, painful, and trying
A total waste of time
But the life I know now keep Christ on my mind
Nothing in my future is there to weaken me
But see it as a way that God
Strengthen me that I never go back
To the life I used to know.
ABOUT ME
- Seeking God For Answers
- Lancaster, Texas, United States
- I am a single mother of four beautiful children. I have had my share of weight of the world and decided to make a page just for people who want to be able to talk about everyday situations and get things off of their chest. Many times the thing that we lack the most in life is someone to talk to and show us unconditional compassion. I am a Christian woman, so many topics that are related to helpful hints to overcome are good. I completed my BA Psychology degree in 2010 at Argosy University. I am currently enrolled in Liberty University in the Master of Arts Marriage and Family Therapist. My goal is to become a Psychologist on the Doctoral level which I hope to start by next fall. I have decided to make this site because it is nice to have someone to talk to every once in a while. So weather you need a poem to write or a shoulder to cry on I am here. I am not trying to do some experiment this is me, I really do care.
