The Devil’s Following Me

The devil is following me

for some reason I don’t know why

The devil is following me

and everywhere I go he is by my side

The devil is following me

to lead me in  his  direction

The devil is following me

and he claims to be my protection

The devil is following me

to take me where he feels I belong

The devil is following me

and he says it’s to a place called home

The devil is following me

and he wants to push me away from the lord

The devil is following me

and he says when I get there I’ll get an award

The devil is following me

but where he leads I will not go

Because there is a better place

to get lead and that’s where god shows

 

Poems by: Tanginique-Age 17

Always and Forever 
Basking in the warmth of your smile
And the music of your laugh 
I feel your tenderness 
And your oh so witty style 
I don’t know why god blessed me
With such a friend as you
 But it makes my pleasure complete 
And very happy too 
The way you always know me 
And exactly what to do 
When my loneliness gets me down 
And I’m so very blue 
The way you see into my soul 
And look behind my eyes
I don’t have to hide my
Feelings
And put on a disguise 
With you I learned to trust 
And as I person I have grown 
Who could have possibly told me 
How could I have known 
That you would come in to my life 
And my beauty would start to bloom 
And like a pretty butterfly
