Unsinkable soul

Unsinkable soul

My soul looms like ominous clouds one day
But despite the misery, I’m determined to the victory 
I silently prayed for triumph in overcoming negativity
Strength and wisdom I learned, from surviving my adversity. 

It started in my heart ‘tis thing I called “Pain”
Unbearable feelings sending signals to my brain 
From my sole to the head, running through my veins 
Destruction I won’t be allowed, or else my life will be in vain.

Encountering and struggling with life’s up and down
It’s sitting on my temple like a monarch’s proud crown 
The obstacles drain my energy and make me frown 
Yet there’s always hope in my core even If I’m feeling down.

Life is queer with its twist and turns sometimes 
But without these adversities, life is boring without steps to climb
And some roads I’m trudging seem so uphill 
Succeeding and moving forward is like winning a fortune will.

Things may not be clearer most all of the time 
Feeling perplexed after everything I’ve been tried
Yet imperfections and failures are fine 
That’s a spice of life, to us which is tied. 

I’ve thanked the Lord above all 
I don’t let greed doom my soul 
Trying to be good and be humble 
Despite hardships, I’m still grateful.

No one is born in this world perfectly
Heartfully I admit my delinquency 
I accepted my shortcomings and all
That’s what I taught to my unsinkable soul.

For the kingdom of heaven, I’m praying for 
I ain’t no saint but he heard for sure
Forgiveness I offered and also asked 
As a daughter of thy Father, my faith is vast.

Faith keeps our souls safe and unsinkable; 
Many claimed to be a good one but understanding is incapable 
But who am I to judge instead I tried to be comprehensible; 
I only want a peaceful life, meek and simple.
