10/14/2007 (...later)

Just finished The Purpose Driven Life day 2 and a poem came to me. I decided to write it down before I forget it. It can always be edited and revised later.

Wasted years, Tasted years
Broken by despair
Time crawls by, Don't know why
No one seems to care

Friends have left, friends forget
Replaced by Inmates
Family gone, They move on
Left to my dark fate

Wait! There's more, in my core
A spark of light and love
Whispered Hope, Helping cope
God's grace shines above

Hmm... I think it needs one more stanza to round it off and balance the dark first two. So far have kept the beat 6-5-6-5. It will come to me eventually.
