Nothing less
than God could have gotten me this far into life
That is the
pure truth
My days were
long and made me weary
Those were
the days of my youth
Every day a
struggle
And every
night a fight
My God gave
me love,
My God gave
me life
With the battles
of self-discovery
And the time
associated with self-recovery
God reminded me of who I was
God reminded me of who I was
He showed me
how to live on pause
From
starving to bingeing to purging my food
My God
showed me instead how to be good
Telling me
healthy is better
Telling me
that I could
Cutting,
slashing, burning and scratching,
My skin took
a beating for my life
The abuse my
skin took forth
The Lord
said, was no representation of my worth
Addiction
haunting my heart, the overdose near,
My heart lacking fear,
My heart lacking fear,
My God
guided me out, only to shout:
‘The prescription
drugs will not reappear! ‘
Suicide a sure
fire way
‘I will do it
tonight’, I would always say
The Lord kept me
alive,
And he told me
that I would thrive
The feelings I
felt unmistakeable
I wanted the Lord
to take me now
Distributing
emotional abuse unto myself
My God told me to
love thine own self
Every day a
struggle
And every
night a fight
My God gave
me love,
My God gave
me life
Those were
the days of my youth
My days were
long and made me weary
That is the
pure truth
Nothing less
than God could have gotten me this far into life
