God Moment

A Poem by NelliKong

I have this God moment when I try to right my wrongs as I see them running across my lawn; but they never leave me alone even when it’s the crack of dawn. Two wrongs don’t make a right, but if I drive down this backstreet then everything will be alright. But all this anger is building upside of me, and now the gates are open for me to set it all free. I see the enemies at the gate as well trying to have their own moment, meanwhile I’m trying to figure out how they got here and what was their component; why didn’t they disown? My head raised to the sky and counting all the stars, it feels so close but yet it’s so far. Even on the last step of the ladder where I should be close enough, but instead I would fall and need a crutch. My God moment will arrive one day and all my troubles will soon fade away; I’m near the end of this maze and come out of this daze… Because from now on I will set this life a blaze and soon will come the praise.

hello nellie
that's a deep & meaningful poem.

i particularly like these words.... 'right my wrongs as I see them running across my lawn' &
....'Because from now on I will set this life a blaze and soon will come the praise.'

an interesting dichotomy of perceiving your wrongs - like actual bad people running, or your own experienced injustices running.
and your last line - your need to receive praise.
thanks for sharing your poem.
(try writing in stanzas it will have more impact & be easier to read.)
