I asked for serenity;
And, someone to help shoulder my load.
Because I’ve been my own worst enemy;
On this long bumpy road.
Abuses of life
Have left my heart filled with strife
Young man showing age past his time.
Can’t understand how I’ve wasted my prime.
Chased demons and ghosts
The devil was my host
My existence abused
For not following the simplest of rules
Life a tattered mess
Showing physical signs of excess stress
Yet there is some sunlight
It leads down a path to the right
A promise of peace of mind for me
And a chance to truly be free.
Because I asked for serenity
And, someone to help shoulder my load.
A savior died for me;
And smoothed out this old bumpy road.
