Crowds To Loneliness
My Spirit is dejected, but I have found a better comfort in the truth. Cast out from the hearts of those I gave myself over to, in expectation that I'd be accepted, what was birthed in my mind as friendship was truly a crowd of enemies. They welcomed me with sneers and malicious winking, and as I was naive, believing their expressions were trustworthy, I sat among the ones who hated my life. What was love to me back then proved to be nothing more than fiends preying upon a lost child, sitting among dogs who hadn't any true honor about themselves. I am gladdened more by my sorrow than by their company, for it reminds me of the honesty I seek. It is my own, but it is worthy, more so than their deceit has ever been, and never shall their lies be acceptable to me again. I am alone.

In Pursuit Of Redemption
It was the case for such a long time, that I desired to be like the men who I admired. But I’ve come to the realization that it serves me no good to do as other men have done, and I must live as an individual who follows what is important to me, walking a personal path, no matter what I may need to endure, in order to make myself happy. I must do away with all the past behaviors that made me unworthy. It is not a proper way of living to learn from my mistakes, realizing consequences, which result from the repetitious behaviors found in someone who is a slave to unclean, or unhealthy, habits. I desire respect above all, and if I value respect, then all important things will come to me. I grew to expect a strictness about respectful conduct above all; a respect in completeness, fitting for a perfect being.

Thoughts Of Contempt
Thoughts Of Contempt Get not wrong what I am. There is nothing special about me. I am but a poor man in a poor situation. And I have always been poor. Living a sad life as a sadder subject of disappointment and rejection. I don’t know if I will never get to anywhere worthwhile no matter how hard I fight. I feel like my life is an uphill battle as I try crawling out of a pit of quick sand. And every time I reach the edge of the pit to crawl out of it, God is there to kick me back into it, while the devil drags me down with his tail. Everyone else is pointing, laughing, and mocking me as they set obstacles for me. I never win.
