Black Poetry : A SISTERS CRY FOR HER BROTHERS

[Ms_MochaB]

IN YOUR WEAKEST MOMENT YOUR LIFE FLASHED BEFORE YOUR EYES
YOU CAN NO LONGER MAKE YOUR OWN RULES OR CHOICES,
EVERYTHING YOU DO IS BASED ON ANOTHER MANS TIME.

NOW YOU THINK, WHAT IF I HAD LISTENED, WOULD I BE HERE NOW
BUT TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION, I WOULDN'T KNOW HOW

YOU HAD SOME MUCH GOING FOR YOU,
BUT YOU GAVE IT UP FOR A HIGH
NOW ALL THE CHOICES THAT YOU MADE
IS ABOUT TO GET YOU SOME TIME.

I'M HURTING AND I KNOW THAT I CAN'T HELP YOU
MY BROTHER'S I DID ALL I COULD
I TRIED TO PROTECT YOU FOM THOSE I KNEW WOULD CAUSE HARM
AND ALL THEM FOLKS YOU KNEW FROM THE 'HOOD.

NOW YOU'RE NOT HERE AND WE'RE LEFT TO FACE LIFE ALONE
YOUR CHILDREN ARE HURTING AND CRYING EACH TIME YOU CALL ON THE PHONE.

THIS IS NOT THE DESTINY GOD HAS PLANNED FOR YOUR LIFE,
THIS IS ONLY A PIT STOP ON YOUR WAY ...
KEEP ON TRUSTING IN THE LORD,NOT ONLY TODAY BUT ALWAYS

GOD KNOWS BEST AND YOU'RE GETTING SOME HELP,
THE KIND OF HELP I COULDN'T PROVIDE.
AND WHEN GOD GETS THROUGH COMPLETING YOU
YOU WILL BE NEW ON BOTH THE IN AND THE OUTSIDE.

SO HOLD ON MY BROTHER'S DON'T GIVE UP YOUR FAITH
GOD WILL STEP IN AND MAKE ALL PAIN DISSIPATE
DON'T WORRY IF I CAN'T SEE YOU, YOU'RE ALWAYS IN MY PRAYER
BUT MOST OF ALL GOD IS ALWAYS THERE.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
TO THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE FAMILY MEMBERS WITH DRUG ADDICTIONS, DO WHAT YOU CAN TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT WITH THEM. GET THEM SOME HELP. WE WAITED TOO LATE FOR MY BROTHERS AND NOW THEY ARE SERVING TIME ... I AM HURTING DEEP WITHIN MY HEART, BUT GOD KNOWS WHAT'S BEST AND JUST LIKE HE HAS BECOME MY COMFORTER .... HE CAN BECOME YOURS TOO. LET US TAKE MOMENT TO PRAY FOR THOSE THAT ARE BOUND BY DRUG ADDICTION, ALCOHOLISM, SEX ADDICTION, AND ANY OTHER ADDICTION THAT CAUSES HARM TO THE TEMPLE OF GOD ... LET US PRAY NOW *MOMENT OF PRAYER* ... THANK YOU

Ms_MochaB i'm feeling you Sis
while thinking you are putting a lot on your shoulders
having to carry so much pain and much too much blame
even if you had gotten to them sooner
it was always their decision
and it always will be Sis
keep giving them your love
in that you never faltered

We acn give all we can, but sometimes we have to place it in the lord's hands. So sad that too many have to go thru this. Deeply written.
