lifeA Poem by Jasmine SmithYears and
years of pain kept inside Masked by a
mask of lies A heart torn
into pieces, a broken soul Eyes were
blind as the tragedies would unfold An innocent
little girl forced to do ungodly acts Her telling
was never a fact With “shhh”
as the plan she kept it to herself So she would
write all the while going left Not knowing
he would disturb the rest of her life Each time he
touched her he blurred her sight A mother
that lived a life for drugs Not knowing
that her child needed her love She possessed
a father like the wind that blows She knew he
existed but didn’t see, it all left her low Lower than
the ground that she stood upon Hoping she’d
wake up to a better dawn She became
an adult way too soon From coloring
pictures to quietly watching pornography in her room Her mind
became a landfill that became fuller each day Building
higher and higher, for it knew no other way Spent her
life searching for that one thing to fill the hole in her heart With each
step forward the more she would break apart Never did
she have a good relationship with a male It seemed
like it would always fail So convinced
herself she could find it in girls Not knowing
it would crush her world She found
herself lying in bed with a girl and asking why What is
wrong with me, should I even be alive Started to
play with soldiers and forget the baby dolls Pressing
decline every time God would call Then one day
she found self-injury Maybe it
could answer her questions about homosexuality Get rid of
her guilt of being addicted to girl on girl porn It told her
she was never meant to be born The pain
replaced what she really felt Never
knowing that she needed help She would
cut in her legs to hide from the world So they
wouldn’t know she was really a broken girl It all
became too much for her to handle on her own Wanted to
call for help but no strength to pick up the phone She could
see herself living but she felt so dead Thinking the
grave should be her home instead No reason to
live she wanted to die It would end
all of the pain she hid inside Not scared
of hell, she was ready to give up Her life was
a mistake not love With the
barrel pressed against her temple The end just
looked so simple No fear was
in her head, the only way to get the voices to stop She was here
to hear the gun go pop A little
voice, a meaning to life saved her life Made clear
what was in her sight Just before
giving up she heard the Lord say “I love you.
I never left you, I’m never going to leave you”, her life changed that day She realized
that her life was for a reason and not a mistake For the God
who made her does not make mistakes She is a
beautiful diamond in the making And only to
God was her heart for the taking He is the
only one that can fill the hole in your heart Put back
together what has broken apart You have a
purpose, you are loved More than
you would ever know from the God above No matter
what the world says you were not born gay It doesn’t
matter what they say, but it comes down to what God has to say and he did not
create you that way He will the
father that you never had Protect you
from the storm and wipe away the tears when you are sad He is the
only person or thing that can take away your pain The only one
that will be your umbrella in the rain He was there
in the beginning and will be there in the end He not only
forgives you but will forgets your sin So do not
give up on yourself Stay strong,
you are not weak when you ask for help God is right
there and will never leave All you have
to do is believe © 2013 Jasmine Smith |
