BREATHE

The Beginning 

Of a hardship

That decorated 

My 

Past

So impatient

For results 

Of my 

Prayer

Forecast..

Hard-pressed 

To find

Stability

My canoe

Missing oars

Searching 

Frantically

And desperately

For

Elohim's 

Open Doors..

Which would 

Show me to 

The 

Peace

A slice of 

Heaven 

On earth

I was 

Certain 

That to grasp it

Would require my

Rebirth

From death to

Afterlife..

A suicidal mission

I purchased my 

Ticket..

Yah denied me 

Admission 

As I approached 

The gates of 

Entry

My pulse began to

Quicken

And the

Plot

Of His 

Story

For my 

Life

Began to 

Thicken..

Shallow breaths 

Becoming 

Steady

My soul
Filled 

With 

Light

And He 

Whispered 

In my

Ear,

"Come on,

I need you to 

Fight."

So I 

Gathered 

All my 

Courage 

With fortitude 

Abound 

And forcefully 

Leapt 

From my 

Merry-go-round

Of anguish;

And of hopelessness

Afflicting 

My heart

And Elohim

Redirected 

My steps 

Back to 

Start

My peace;

Once 

Diminished..

My 

Catastrophe;

Finished 

He restored 

My 

Ambition

My hope

And my 

Fate.

My 

Love for Him 

Heightened

I'm no longer 

Frightened

My once 

Contorted path

Now narrow 

And straight.

Now 

I can see

Clearly

For I know 

He is 

Near me

And distant 

Are the

Thoughts 

Of my former 

Ex-jail..

My lungs 

Now

Expanding 

No more 

Misunderstanding..

For my Savior's 

Finally given me

My chance 

To

Exhale
