Poems

I was weak, you were strong You are the God who carried me along Though feeble and weak Tears falling down my cheek You said as I crossed the ridge Ahead was a bridge I needed to cross You are my boss - who had hung on a cross You died for me at Calvary Freed me from the Bondage of Slavery I crossed the bridge New life awaits One day I will enter those heavenly gates.

We all try to do our best But we all end up in The Chapel of Rest Some young, some old Some their stories never to be told Some young and teary Some old and weary Some with a song unsung Babies, Youth, Elderly The world is a stage Some acts are long Some hardly get their toe on What are we here for ? Knocking on heaven's door Waiting to die Relatives cry Mourn, especially those newborn After the chapel of rest God knows us best. Kizzy York aka K.Oakes  2014 Copyright

The train is coming And all must get on Some will be old Some will be young It's coming for all of us The day we don't know Ready or not ? It will swallow you whole What is this train ? Where does it go ? Depends on your life Destination unknown You will know when you get there Darkness or light Destination known No turning back Only two directions Which way will you go ? Be assured, the train is coming Death, it will swallow you whole If you live right It will take you where it's light The contrast will be stark If it takes you to the dark One day That train is coming No matter who you are Death will swallow you whole 2 Tunnels 2 Destinations Which way will you go ? One day you will get off the train When Death swallows you whole Kizzy York aka K.Oakes 2015 Copyright

My normal is not your normal I know that now After five years of crying, trying to help But I just get pushed away You shout! I go to bed I pout Try to drown your voice and singing out It's teenager's - you are getting like your dad As it's with them you want to hang out I go to bed I dream of a better life Without you Normal- whatever that is All I know now five years on My normal is not your normal My normal likes peace No strife Therefore I will stop being your wife Lessons learned - this normal hates smoke Hates booze and dope Enjoy your amphetamine trip No hope for you As for me and my house I am getting off the ride Just want to run and hide Find my kinda normal All I know is my normal is not your normal Kizzy York aka K.Oakes 2014 Copyright

Don't know what to do Missing you Killing time - wasting time Trying to move on without you This is where it's at It was not just a lover's spat It was more than that We can't go back It's all the crap Why that ? The night you seemed to want me out of your life Even though I am supposed to be your wife Christmas, New year looming You wanted to be near her Cuddle up with her In her new fur Goodbye for now In time - like your dad You will realize I was not that bad Just reacting against the harsh life Of your abuse and being your wife.

Lost, abandoned No control over these feelings Keeps me reeling Have to get out Just walk about Panic hits my chest Can't seem to find Gods best No control over my life I was meant to be your wife Lacking direction No way out this mess Even though I am missing you less I just want you to confess God can't be mocked Forever your life will be locked Let him fully empty your heart Then you will not depart Chorus between each verse God break his heart for what breaks yours Show him how much you want to restore Kizzy York aka K.Oakes 2014 Copyright

I still wear my wedding rings For better, for worse So I don't live under the curse I still wear my wedding rings For richer, for poorer Think Gods way is cooler I still wear my wedding rings In sickness and in health To bring in Gods true wealth I still wear my wedding rings Till Death do us part You will always have my heart I still wear my wedding rings I believe on good things I believe in Gods law I believe he will restore I still wear my wedding rings One day you will walk back in the door Door of my heart Then we will never part That is why I still wear my wedding rings Kizzy York aka K.Oakes 2014 Copyright
