Dear God,
I just wanted to say thank You
For giving me this day
And also to say thank You
For showing me the way
Of the straight and the narrow
So in life when I divert from the right track
I’m subconsciously able
To end up right back
Where I should be
I constantly think about the person
That I could be
Or even the person
That I would be
Had it not been for Your grace
I know I’m not living life the way I should
I know I put on fronts like everything is all good
If I could turn the hands of time and change some things then I would
But the lessons I’ve learned in life up to this point would not be understood
So thank You…
For taking and bolding
Making and molding
Never breaking but bending and folding
And constantly holding
My life in your hands
See everything I’m not
Has made me who I am in the present
I apologize for all the times
My heart was filled with resent
I know I forgot the -ment
But I meant it
And I’d like to start fresh
Like my life has been minted
So also, thank You…
For my trials and tribulations
Yes-that’s very difficult to say
But when taking life in stride
You must hurdle the obstacles in the way
And the great thing about these obstacles
They come from the front and not behind you
Therefore, these are situations
You can’t turn a blind eye to
Some you can’t conquer on your own
You sometimes receive the help of others
Even at times when
You wish you were all alone
Yeah, we may stumble
And we may fall
But it strengthens our faith and it’s reassuring
To know you’re with us through it all
So again, I say thank You…
For placing certain people in my life
Like my friends, loved ones, and family
I know I’m hard headed sometimes
And they probably can’t stand me
If I’ve never said it before
Now’s a better than never
Tomorrow’s not promised
So I’ll say this just in case if ever…
I love each one of you in your own special way
And no-don’t call me out about being gay
But if you know me, for me
Then you understand what I’m trying to say
And I’m sorry if sometimes
I come off as ungrateful
Especially on those days
When I can seem so hateful
My problem is
I tend to wear my emotions on my face
Like an enormous zit
That Proactiv couldn’t even erase
So I thank you all…
For those who stood by my side
Laughed til we cried
Tears of sorrow dried
Present when I needed to go for a ride
I feel guilty for praying sometimes
Because I know I’ve been on a drought
But God never lets me down
Miraculously, my seed still sprouts
I may complain, gripe, and groan
Laugh, weep, and moan
And yet I pray
That I wouldn’t have it any other way-
So, I just wanted to say…
Thank You.
