Save Us, Save Me.A Poem by Keenan Broad
We're broken, were beaten, how long will this last?
We've heard the stories "this too shall pass" We seek more comfort, we seek more care When we need you, will you be there? God I am sorry, I cannot go on How can I right now, where do I belong I'm lonely I'm tired, my life is a mess I'm a sinner a bad man this I confess I have my mistakes, but all of us do Please forgive us, we know not what we do I cannot save myself, Oh please don't leave me here. I'm on my hands and knees, Lord don't let me fear. Is this life worth living or should I give up I'm scared, I'm pleading, why do we grow up We would sit, laugh and play all day We didn't know much, but it was all okay Now it's reality and in that there is pain How is this living, nothing's the same We slave and work, what do we get A year full of war and a life of regret There's so much to live for but I'd much rather go Some seek riches I just want a home Not a house on the hill, not a lot of stuff Just a woman who cares, a woman I love I'm happy, I've found her, is this really true I'm lucky, I'm loved, it's all thanks to you God, I was pleading I was down on my knees You've given me all that I'll ever need My life was a wreck, an unworthy mess I believed in your prayer lord, I'm so very blessed © 2017 Keenan Broad |
