I don't want to

by Ashley Tyler   Aug 25, 2006


I try with all my might
I try to do what's right
Good things always keep avoiding me
Pain in my soul
Because it seems the devil
Loves my company

God is more than a man
How I love His unchanging hand
He's the reason I'm renewed
The sin rolling in
Here I go again
But God's love I know is true

God knows that I'm unfaithful
I know it kills Him inside
To know that I am sometimes happy
Living the devils lie

God knows I don't want to do this anymore
I can't let the devil be the reason why
Every time I walk out of the church doors
I'm dying a little more inside
I don't want him to take away my life
God, I'm just so tired.....I don't want to fight

Sometimes I feel it in the air
Even then, I still don't care
About what's happening to me
Sometimes I can feel the devil kiss my cheek
Because he knows when I'm weak
However, I acknowledge it reluctantly
Will it be too late
I know I don't have long
God will not continue to allow me to do wrong
I know it quite well
If I don't stop, I'm going to hell

I don't want to do wrong anymore
I seem to keep finding a reason why
Even when I try to close the door
I seem to die a little more inside
I don't want satan to take my life
Please God, make me right

I don't want to do this................

    Your poem was amazing! I can not explain how long I felt like that, and it's kind of like an inner battle of our mind going back and forth. Like we know what we should do and that all we really want is Jesus, but at the same time, while fighting with ourselves we get depressed and we do the bad thing even though we know we truelly dont want to. . .am I close?
    cause I know how that feels and I will keep you in my prayers. I really hope everything turns out for you, comment back if you want, or e-mail me if you want or need to talk. Great job! and Godbless!
