Suicide secured a place somewhere in my mind <br />Suicide stomped right out when God took a stand in my mind <br />Confussion cramped my thought process making it unuseable <br />Confussion crawled right out when God untangled my thoughts <br />Lonliness lurked in the bottom of my soul <br />Lonliness left when God grabbed hold of my soul <br />Tears tortured my eyes everyday and my pillow everynight <br />Tears trembled away when God filled my eyes with himself <br />What I used to be is a broken black crayon in a box of white <br />What I am now is the crayon with which God colors the world.<br /><br />Cheyenne Ashley<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-used-to-be-but-now-i-am/
