It is I oh dear Lord that turned away <br />Your goodness is perfect and enough <br />No wonder Hell stands in my very way <br /> <br />You chose and made each and every day <br />That I may enjoy this life that seems rough <br />It is I oh dear Lord that turned away <br /> <br />In my quest for freedom’s elusive ray <br />I dug my very tomb in grounds tough <br />No wonder Hell stands in my very way <br /> <br />I chose to be good only when I would pray <br />Sinking into moths-infested and rotting tuff <br />It is I oh dear Lord that turned away <br /> <br />Shame has become my mate of play <br />Fiddling with my life like a Cartesian graph <br />No wonder Hell stands in my very way <br /> <br />Now I will come back to never run astray <br />Evil won’t crash me like cigar stuff <br />It is I oh Lord that turned away <br />No wonder Hell stands in my very way<br /><br />David Munene wa Kimberly<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/evil-oh-lord-villanelle/
