“Saved”

I ran I leaped over current events
I ran I leaped supported by a staggering fence
I ran I leaped I ran once more
I ran I leaped the signs I ignored

I ran I leaped and staggered this time
I ran I leaped and the victory was mine

I ran I leaped I felt untouchable
I ran I leaped and I stomped my big toe
I ran I leaped and still made it over
I ran I leaped and became arrogant as a mutha

I ran I leaped they watched my ego grow
I ran I leaped and still wanted more
I ran I leaped with a smile and a win
I ran I leaped protected by sin

I ran I leaped and down I fell
I ran I leaped but could not bare the pain
I ran I leaped and lost to the game

I woke up from my dream
Drenched in sweat on my knees I prayed
In silence I wept

Returning to bed
A soft voice spoke to me and said
Your sin are forgiven and now you can rest
Remember you are my child and you’re no less then blessed.
