I would be okay if i didnt have such opposition lol

I'm a Christian but i have an old SELF
She died along with my ego...

I've had quite enough of myself
No need for any badgering
Ive had quite enough of life as it was
No need for information gathering
Why is it when you actually do better
They pick apart your past
Not taking into account of course
Their many flaws and if not that
At least of judging without remorse
My screw ups and hangups

Unless your a true friend
From my life you can turn
Away with no concern
From me.
Been through
It.
But its a new season
Just like a seed sown
You cant see the roots that have grown
Nor the beautiful break-through of them
Slowly protruding out of
the soft yet durable seed skin.

    I disagree with the 'lol' comment

    poetry is an expressive art, there are no real rules,
    Being able to captivate and take the reader on a journey helps
    You have done both with this
    nice write.

    Throughout life most people change and metamorphosis. Results of experiences and lessons learnt. It is rare that someone remains unchanged from who they were even ten years ago. Who you are today is built on the foundations of yesterdays and that can be for the better or worse.

    Unfortunately when you join a church or any community you can come across people who like to seek out the worst about someone so that they have something to talk about and sneer. Generally I have observed it is usually people who are unhappy with their lot or who feel inadequate deep down in some way or even just because they have nothing else in their lives to keep them occupied other than to gossip or spread discontent. This is a great piece that highlights clearly the biblical message "let he without sin cast the first stone".

    Best wishes Milly x
