Poetry- It’s You!

I’m talking to you!
The uneducated..the unsure..
The over educated, the most confidant.
I’m talking to you!
The hurt, the abused..
the angered, the one filled with sorrow.
The one who cries, and
the one that laughs out loud.
I’m talking to you!
The one with so little money,
the one with to much money.
The one with no hope..
the one who’s weeping alone.
You, it’s you I am talking to.
The one drinking one more drink..
the one with the needle..or pills..
The one with a stranger in your bed.
I’m talking to you!
The one who blames everyone else for their misfortune.
The one who has overworked to prove their wrong.
The one who lies in bed all day, suicidal thoughts slowly winning.
The one who seeks blood, the one who freely gives their bodies!
It’s you!
The one who is hard, and needs no one..
The one who clings to everyone.
The one who never smiles…
The one who has fought for a country, and forever changed.
I’m talking to you..
The one with children with many fathers.
The one who chose abortion, adoption..
the one whose child is no longer here.
To the one who can’t forgive..
others or themselves.
The one who does not know..
The one who is aged,
the one that is new..
yes, I’m talking to you.
For the one who is imprisoned,
the ones who have reached the bottom,
and to those that reach the top..
It is you!
For whosoever believes in Jesus, shall not perish, but have everlasting life!
It is you!
Because God so loved the world…it…is…you!

I'm someone who has always had a deep passion for literature and writing. From a young age, I've been captivated by the power of words and the way they can transport us to different worlds, open our minds to new ideas, and connect us with people and experiences that are distant from our own. Whether it's immersing myself in a classic novel, jotting down my thoughts in a journal, or crafting my own creative stories, writing and literature have always been an essential part of my life. I'm excited to continue exploring this rich and rewarding field, and to share my thoughts and insights with others who share my love for all things literary.
