College Poetry

I love to write poetry because it's easy for me to express my feelings this way. I often write them as prayers. They are very personal, and I hope by sharing them with you, that you relate and hopefully they will be of help to realize that God is always with us. He is there even when it seems everything is spiraling in a tornado of madness and you have no idea where to start. Poetry is my outlet to just calm down and refocus. Enjoy these two poems and have an awesome day!

Until next time,

WHAT DO I DO?
There are no words I can find,
Scared, worried, nervous-
Nothing just seems to  capture
My feeling opposite of bliss.

My feet can't stop shaking.
"Am I making the right decision?",
I think as I take this large step.
All I can hope is precision.

I don't want to let anyone down
Or cause disappointment around me.
The last thing I need one to say
Is, "That is not how to do it properly."

Just light it, one step at a time;
God, please show me the away.
Help me only do what is right
And from this path never stray.


A BAD DAY
Nobody's always happy.
We all have certain days
where life seems to us down,
and it seems we've lost our way.

But lately it's more often
That these feelings come inside,
And I can't help but hate myself
Because I want to run and hide.

I know I'm doing what's right,
And this is the life for me,
But it's so much harder than I imagined.
I'm a lock without a key.

Lord, give me grace and guidance
To live without the stress
Of worry, fear, and bitterness,
For me to never have to guess.

Give me confidence in all I do;
Help me not to give in.
I'll try my hardest all the time;
With your help I know I'll win.
