Hypocrisy

CATEGORY

life

Views: 395

It’s not to be considered synonymous
When the masses focus on what could be erogenous
It’s completely fallacious and despicable
The many people who preach truth are the most hypocritical

They seemingly swear, to tell the truth and yet lie to you and me.
That’s not the kind of person I want to be depicted to be.
I don’t kid myself nor do I try to express
Me being better than those whom I’m trying to linguistically “impress”
I don’t need to impress anyone but the lord whom I serve
And to do so would quite easily make my path go curve

Admittedly, my path has mostly been extremely narrow and straight
But many times I have walked way from that path to enter a wider gate.
And though emotionally I felt horrible and began to self hate
God was wise to allow me to stray, to more firmly pray rather than debate

Now look at me here & now I wonder how I still persist
If you all knew what was happening beneath and what has been difficult to resist
You would laugh and smile to see the road I’ve trampled and trod
But somehow in the midst of the spiritual mist I’ve continued to believe in God.

Although extremely difficult and hard to have continued to have resisted the hatred & lust
I believe we have choices to allow our circumstances to build or destroy us
Our character is sharpened and built by the experiences we are confronted with.
And in the midst of the tidal wave of pain, we can find out what is our true gift.

Either blessed with the ability and emotional agility to uplift
Or use verbal and psychological flexibility to mentally help others shift
Shift and rotate around the correct objects of focus
And all the while being able to decipher the world’s destructive locusts

Based on my own personal disgraces and many hearts either broken or taken
I have learned by fire to have my soul uplifted and shaken
Because the truth of the matter is that hypocrisy lies in us all
Because the voice within us which is the voice of sin
Is always speaking loud to try to make us stumble and fall.

There is hypocrisy and inconsistency in which I feel I currently have the latter.
Hypocrisy is to willingly sway and stray and have my own heart and others shatter.

So here I am sharing through words the very nature most of us endure.
I am first to proclaim that I never was nor shall I ever be pure.
At least here on this present earth, I shall only strive for perfection.
But until then, God will give me strength and HE will be my sovereign protection.
