Talking With God

Talking With God

A Poem by Sloane Holt

It wasn't easy -- at all.

I know -- but I never let you fall.

I stumbled and tripped.

The road twisted and dipped.

But God that's no excuse!

Weakness is designed for my use.

Were you there the whole time?

Yes. After all, you are mine.

I don't remember feeling you...

But I remember healing you.

Lord you should have left me.

-- and then where would you be?

I guess right where I started 

-- beat down and broken-hearted.

I guess I see your point, but still...

No need to explain, I know exactly how you feel.

Right. Ok. Just one more thing...

Yes? Go on. You were wondering...?

Why smile on me? I'm here by your side but...

The others seem like their down on their luck?

Listen, my child, they did 'enough' all the while.

But you, despite the pain, went the extra mile.

I liked the creative nature of this write... the back and forth between the lines... the conversation with the almighty here... I will give you credit... most would not write it down... I have a lot of questions and answers also... and writing them down gives more understanding and reason... I liked how the word "you" is overtly emphasized in the line...

About
I love God, music, writing, and all sorts of art. I'm kind of a morbid thinker and some of my posts might reflect that, just a heads up. I know I'm a white girl, but I still love to rap, odd but true.. more..
