My Story
In March of 2013, I met a guy at a local gym and we began communicating on Facebook and then I found out that he was married. I asked him about it and he said that they were separating and I explained that I was not going to give him my number until all of that was settled because I wasn’t going to be “that” woman.

Lost Souls
Battered and broken and neglected and used Betrayed and tortured and bloodied and bruised Searching and seeking but can’t find a way Pursuing and striving but to always some dismay Wishing and wanting and hoping and praying Feelings of rejection that goes without saying The outcast, the loner, the misfit, the black sheep The delinquent, the hoodlum, the weirdo, the creep The empath, the forgiver, the man who is wise The hated, the unloved, the detested, the despised We’re mortals, we’re wretches, we’re sinners, we’re lost souls We’re only human beings just trying to play our roles

We used to ride our bikes and blow bubbles and she would…

Set Free
Dope controlled my mind and had me possessed I once was burdened then He gave me rest I once was vulnerable but now I’m secure I once had a sickness but He was the cure I once was captive and Satan held the key ‘Til I asked my King and He pardoned me I once was crippled but now I can walk He’s in the business of miracles and that is real talk I once was lost but now I am found His grace is sufficient, His love profound I once was blind but now I can see Drugs had me bound but Jesus set me free
