Road Of Tears

by Timothy L. Brown Jr.   Dec 1, 2005


I'm dealing with struggle and I'm feeling the pain,
Which route do I go?
Lord I'm shouting your name,
I continue to look down,
Forgot how to look up,
I quit hear the birds chirp and stop feeling the butterflies,
My cautioned life crashes and takes a nose dive,
Would I hit rock bottom or did I already pass it up,
Satan pulling me down,
But there's nothing to grab,
So you can say I'm just Hell bound,

"I'm on a Road of Tears"

The colors of the rainbow,
I no longer see,
It been replaced by the image of the Devil inside of me,
My mind is like a thunderstorm and my hands is the rain,
Pouring emotions down on paper,
Brainstorming would any of this change,
My eyes see sin,
While my mouth eats the sorrows,
My throat swallows the blame,
While my chest feels the heat of the flame,

"I'm on a Road of Tears"

Preys are watching, reaching for my pride,
The Grid Ripper is seeking,
But there's nowhere to hide,
I escaped him once and juke him twice,
I got down and prayed on it every night,
But this road that I'm on,
Is full of cracks,
I can't show slack cause there's no one here who got my back,

"I'm on a Road of Tears"

My feet is throbbing,
I hear voices in my head,
I feel hands lifting me placing me in my forever lasting resting bed
I rise up out the ground,
I float up in the sky,
Up through the clouds and way pass space,
Saint Peter awaits for me along side the gate,
I try to repent but it's too late for that,
The road I'm on there's no turning back,
Judgment came,
My head hanged,
I fell back through earth with lightning pain

"The Road of Tears"

    Wow, that had some great description and a lot of emotion to it! The only thing I would say is that the lines are all over a bit, lacking a kind of pattern, so if you wanted to work on that a bit, and if not it is still a good poem.
