Poetry: Who I am

by Elizabeth for XquisitLife

Created on: January 20, 2009

I've come to a fork in the road

Will I see who I am

or will I still carry the same load

of the sin and shame and the misery

Will I refuse to face the truth

or will I let you pour over me

open my eyes

give me new sight to see

who I truly am inside-

see the real me

Who I am

is broken and bruised, wounded, not whole

and there's no excuses I can give or hold

for if I won't see who I am

and give myself completely to you

I'll never be more than what I am right now

no matter what I do

Time is up and the clock keeps ticking

no more time to figure out

when will I begin improving

figure out what I'm all about?

This road I am on has led me

to a place I never should have gone

now its time to take a look and see

if what's inside of me can continue on

My path must be chosen yes, that is clear

God please show me the right way

all these things deep within me make it so hard to hear

the words that you say-

so I'll cling to the one you gave me

for you gave him your love to help guide me and see

There's no other choice from here on out

I've got to find out what I'm all about

and then I can finally whisper those words

that will tell me who I am!
