The Message Is You Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Slapped back to my senses.
Confused to pieces once!
It wasn't easy...
Knowing then what to do!

Stung from much heartache.
That wouldn't leave me.
Broken...
Until I found out...
The message is You!

Don't know how this started.
But I knew it had to end!
Shakened on the ground I was.
Without defense,
Family or friends.

But then...
Released from set traps!
Cut from addictions that treated.
I wasn't pleased!
What choice should I choose?
On my knees I knew...
The message is you.

Slapped back to my senses.
Confused to pieces once!
It wasn't easy...
Knowing then what to do!

On my knees...
That's when I knew!
So clear to hear...
The message,
Is You!
