Love Put On Hold.

Love Put On Hold

A poem by MK Douglas              Copyright © 2011

I once was told about a love that's grown cold
Someone abused and used is how this story unfolds
This person takes his pain and keeps it bundled inside
All the mistakes and shame he gives a place to hide.
Rooted and grounded in hurt and agony
I knew it and founded his story so sad to me.
I thought to myself how can they be so mean to this guy
Then I began to listen to his words and take heed to his cry
A man in tears and sorrow with fears about tomorrow
Knows that holding back love is a tough pill to swallow.
He asked someone "Why me?" and played the role of a victim
When all along the devil tried to take his soul and trick him
Into placing blame on God for everything that goes wrong
Instead of facing the same lies he's been hearing so long
I'm happy to report that this story has a good ending
When I got word that he chose Jesus as His new beginning.
