I'm a Georgia Peach!!!!
Occupation
working to own my plus size empire.....
Lord, I stand before you because I just wantee to know
Why when the sun shine its doesnt shine on me
Or when I ask the moon for guidance it seems to ignore me
Or why when I think I get ahead disappointments is standing over me with a shot gun
Lord, Why Me?
Or why is it when I go to work the man next to me just stole and he's prospering
Im working hard just to get ahead to be put back in place
Or why do my babies just seem to not want to listen to me
Was I that disobedient Father that Im paying for my troubles I had given
Lord, Why Me?
Or Lord
when I try to get my Mother to understand that it just aint in me to look the way she want
She cry
Why doesnt see that the little raven that she knew is no longer that
But a full grown Bird ready to spread her wings as she please
Or Lord why doesnt my Father see that the little girl he used to is no longer there
She grew up once again to be left scared
Daddy can you let me for once be the adult I am
Lord, Why Me?
Or when I get off work I have more work to do because my neighbors seems to not respect me
Why
Because they just vandalized my car and think its cool
When in fact I come home and be to myself
Why am I being punished for not associating with the likes of them
I know Im not driving a Lexxus my poor little Toyota had all she can take
And me like a coward have to go park far from my door just so she can stop being abused by other people hands
Lord, Why me?
Is it for all the mistake I made
Is if for all the time I gave
and couldnt give
My Heavenly Father why is it so darn hard to live
My soul crying
My heartbeat is dying
And I ask that you rescue me
Save me
For hell is awaiting me
(With tears streaming down my face, face buried deep within my battered hands I say)
Lord, Why Me?


This is dedicated to my new mentor Defiantson I hope I done you proud. I tried so hard not to rhyme. It wasnt easy but I tried. Thanks love!!!!!!!!
 
Disclaimer, she did this all on her self... Wow nevar you did your thing here. A little rhyme dont hurt ever now and then. But its the feeling you get when you read it that sends the message. Lord, why me.... That is a ill concept.

Lord, why me...
I stood there time after time
wondering and pondering
why me...

Why did you forsaken me
see I sit here with my hands folded
knees bent on your carpet
the alter in front of
with the crusific above me
and I began to pray

I praid like I never did before
cause I know tomorrow
I may not be no more
its kind of funny though
how you made me this way
a man full of conviction
yet standing here with your protection

Lord, why me...

Why did I have to go through these doors
my pain, I cant take no more
so I sit here
with a gun in one had
and a knife in the other
and a knuss above
contemplayting suiced

This cancer in my body
is spreading double its size
it only take 24 hours for it to grow
and the doctor told me
I only got 2 years for left for growth

Oh lord, why me...

Why do I have to suffer
this plait you bestowed on me
see my consious thought
can't believe this
and the tears in my eyes
a filling valleys getting ready to be flooded

so I sit here wondering
day after day
hoping and praying
still with no conclusion
and then I ponder
oh lord, why me?

You did your thing Nevar I just had to add to this. Its beautiful and I know mine is kind of sad, but then those are the emotions in me that I let evoke inside of me. Not all poetry has to rhyme but its the essence of the message that is important. Give it substance and make it truthful...
