Spirit Crushed (Jun 2012)
Author: choochaJan 13
The heart beats a lonely ballad
The sould howls a passionate cry
The head throbs with anger
The response is a woeful sigh
The wants and desires are dwindling
The confidence has been defeated
The young girl who had so much potential
The positive attitude so depleted
The hopes and dreams were scoffed at
The hunger slowly abating
The resulting outcome is a sad one
The woman, crushed, is sick of waiting.

I Ask Of You (Jun 2012)
Author: choochaJan 13
Pluck me out when I feel like I’m drowning in a vat of burning oil
Pick me up when I’ve fallen on barbed wire spikes
Wake me when I dream of puppies being tortured
Retrieve me when I’m lost in obtrusive thoughts
Guard me when others spit poison darts at me
Stroke my hair when peaceful sleep alludes me
Catch me when I fall off the face of the earth
Explain to me when my jumbled mind confuses me
Preach to me when I’m losing my spirituality
Tell me all will be ok, when everything’s going wrong
Inspire me when all around me I see failure and wretchedness
Uplift me when I feel can’t sink any lower
Be understanding when I’ve made bad decisions
Forgive me when I’m being selfish
Be my guide when I’ve picked the wrong path
Cheer me on when I’m disenchanted
Mentor me when I need your wisdom
This is what I ask of you
Thankyou
