Life's Lessons

      

By Patrice Watley Williams/Poetic Lyricist

Patrice Watley Williams/Poetic Lyricist   Life Lingers   Medical miracles   Unexplainable to our eyes   But our heart feels every moment   Miraculous changes when our lives   Are in a tailspin of destruction   The shock and disbelief   The risk of doubting Him   I’m sure must have its consequences   Though when your faith returns   From the stumbles of life’s transgressions   Repentance is a must   The anatomy of how to move forward   The stream is clear   No tough skin to hide behind   The disappearing acts have come to an end   Out of your hands and in God’s control   Second chance to be the real you   Lining yourself with character   Celebrating the new   Previously broken from standing still   Stopped paying attention to the sky   From having your head down in the ground   No clouds in your future just rain to wash them all away   Stand with me, I’m headed somewhere…   Started some time ago my pace was just a little slow   Life lingers need I say more…   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~   Holla Till You Get It!!!   You say your life is in shambles   And you can’t stand it   You say you’re tired   I clearly see you standing   In your own path of pity while you pout   I hear the words my faith is strong   But I see you in major doubt   Lying and deceiving yourself   And those who depend on you   And to think no one has a clue   It’s time to take charge of your life   And stop hiding behind your life’s strife   And displeasing yourself   You advise others to Holla till they get it   When you don’t even scream a high note   What life are you leading?   What example are you setting?   By settling for less   In this life of confusion and stress   You chose your life as a mother   A follower can never lead if he   Has never followed   As our children follow our lead   They eventually lead there own followers   In the same manner in which they were lead.   You’ve stated it’s not your responsibility   To do certain things   But as a mother if you don’t what does their future bring   The same as yours or with any luck they will manage   In this world   With no head start or morals to stand by   It saddens me and makes me cry   When you deny them an opportunity to say goodbye   To our world of excuses and mishaps of our own blame   The shame is you didn’t Holla till you got it   But instead you chose to stumble and fold   Never humbling to His almighty control.   Stop sitting down waiting for something to happen   Get down on your knees and as you rise to the occasion   You have to fight for what’s rightfully your decision   To protect, provide and get your life on track to bringing your salvation back.     Poetically,   Patrice Watley Williams, Founder: wearitgirlwigs.org amazon.com/author/patricewatleywilliams Outreach Committee Chair/ http://www.iwillsurviveinc.org   ***to purchase my books click any link below:   http://www.amazon.com/My-Pen-Speaks-Poetic-Vibes/dp/160911325X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1313849129&sr=8-1   http://www.booksamillion.com/p/My-Pen-Speaks/Patrice-Watley-Williams/9781609113254?id=5058590506127   Thank you for allowing me the freedom to be expressive as my Caterpillars blossom into Butterflies!!!
