The Gangster's Debt Poem by Mindy Brown

Your Life may Not be always bright
but your soul is like a light
you carry in the arms
and prepare to fight

all in want for a greater good
maybe one day u will find it
and maybe some day u will notice that u had it all along
THAT u NEVER had ANY need to search for it
that u had found it BUT it was so small
u just let it slip thru your fingers like the water on a rainy day

But before you make a mistake and ruin your life
Think about your loved ones and try to forget the bad ones
Clasp your lucky charm and Pray to the skies for God to watch over you
And know that you are important.
Your life is as important as the next sunrise.
It is as important as god dying
For you are meant to be something great
And to some degree I think you agree

So when your heart is frozen with sadness
and your hands on fire with hate
Think about what you will miss out on
If you kill the devils men.
For I believe you are better than them.

Look deep and look hard and you may agree with me
For I may not know you fully
But I know one thing and that is that you are sick of life
And you want to die or give up..(idk fro sure)

I know I was once there too.
But imagine your mothers eyes when you do that act
Imagine what you will miss out on.
Imagine a life of which you will NEVER set foot outside
Those tortured wires of hate.

You think it is worth it
And I wonder why
I do not know why you think like you do
But I know your probably blue
And that your hands are waiting to kill,
BUT tell me, is it worth it all?

So I am going to leave you with some words of wisdom
And hope you change your mind for the greater good
But if you do not I will just say this:
carry your arms and pray for forgiveness
And hate someone until the skies turn black and you got a view of bars.
BUT u should know something b4 u stray 2 far
u NEVER needed anyone’s forgiveness to survive BUT your own.
And that vengeance never is satisfying for the people who need it the most.......
