Hesitant Hello

Invited but not welcomed

Hugged but not embraced

These are the situations

That daily I come face

•

to face with those who pretend

To support and be my friend

When all of the while

Greeting me with fake smiles

•

After miles and miles

Of traveling with these folks

It is only now that I realize

It was I that was their jokes

•

Punched in my gut

As well as in my heart

I should have been guarded

When I met them from start

•

To finish they prove evil

With betrayals and such

I must not be so trusting

I must not put so much

•

Weight on the flesh

For man’s heart is full of deceit

I must trust Holy Spirit

When these stranger I do meet

•

Thank you for reading and following
