Cloudy emotions stir up,
Unnecessary devotion,
Cataclysmic reprocussions,
Muster up much discussion,
The anguish and pain,
Do not seem to abstain,
The nostalgic underlying rage,
That seems to poke through the words on this page,
A fuzzy mind,
Filled with remnants and traces of manipulation,
But the events were purely a matter of interpretation,
The psyche is bound to subdue,
Fallacies instead of what is really true,
The potency of tears,
Cannot seem to clear,
The agony that is seems so far,
But is yet so near...

Bloodwashed and sanctified,
Dead to sin and now alive,
Living as a child of the most high,
Believing that when I perish,
I will end up in the sweet by & by,
Filled with the Holy Ghost,
Trying to do right with passionate might,
Overlooked by almost everyone,
But not in HIS sight,
Enriching my mind with scriptures,
Looking at the world, that is now a different picture,
Being taken out of the comfort zone,
Lonely and alone in flesh,
Knowing that perseverance and strength will be birthed out of this test…
-KJ
