Relatively old poem I wrote back in 13; however, its been one of those nights and I figured Id share it. I know Im not the only one to have wrestled with the blankets until dawn to prove my resolve. Darkest before the dawn - Nathan Frankenberger I tell ya I used to love that girl, But she said it was not enough. I wish I could tell that girl, How she has made my nights so rough. I tell ya I used to adore that girl, But I guess it was of no use. I’m haunted of so many memories of that girl, That now I just sit back and muse. I used to dance with that girl, Twirl her around in my living room. Now I sit and think of that girl, Some times so much I can see her shadow loom. I tell ya I should thank that girl, For she taught me how to persevere. I’m so thankful every night I make it through, By the grace of God when the dawn draws near. I tell ya I should probably tell the girl, The differences I’m starting to see. The recognizable facets of this life, And maybe we’re just not meant to be. I’ve come to know that it is it what it is and it ain’t what it wasn’t I’ve tired of the nonsense and am starting to rise above it. I’ve got too many goals to choose that I should lose a single one over anyone. With big dreams in my hands I’m making plans to get them all to fruition, I’m not the type to sit and hype on something I can’t make real and only keep on wishin’. I’ve been too blessed to sit and rest and wait on things to happen in life, And for the woman that appreciates me, she can have the role of a housewife. If she wants to work part time, that’s just fine, but I’m going to make it where she doesn’t have to. It’s by the grace of God, that I have blessings to trod, down a path He wants me to be blazing. Im not going to sit in a room, being too cooped up to move, but instead get out in life and show people why I praise Him. And just like how this poem has evolved, I’m going to make it my resolve, to grow into the man, God wants for me to be. So maybe if I ever see that girl, I can tell that girl, “thanks for leaving me.”
