Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Keeping faith takes getting closer,
To oneself to accept.
Although so many who say they have faith,
Have yet to allow this 'awakening' to happen.
...

The bogusness of your focus shows,
It's not legit.
The bogusness of your focus shows,
It's counterfeit.
...

Hold on tightly to the reins,
Of your life.
With this done both day and night.
As if sugar cane you had,
...

Demons can never accept lessons to learn,
From those they have picked to see demeaned.
Demons love to belittle them with schemes,
With it voiced heard to others...
...

Knowing what self-editing means,
Takes life to live and experiencing...
Actively listening.
And with it done to pay attention,
...

If the purpose of truth,
Was to have it accessed...
To have it shown as known,
At all times.
...

Let's begin,
From 'scratch' again.
To salvage and get back that attraction,
Before we began an adding onto 'zero'...
...

More time,
Together we could find...
To enjoy each other again.
Instead of talking 'bout neighbors,
...

What's more disgusting to witness,
But left to ignore or perhaps not acknowledged?
Disrespect and a lack of discipline?
Someone claiming to be a 'Christian',
...

Knowing what it means,
To recognize a blessing...
Is one who has exposed,
A stepping in faith...
...
