A Poem from the The Poet and His Thoughts Collection
Throughout The Night - Viewed 465 Times
David Devaney
Website
February 19, 2007
I sat myself upon the earth
Reflecting on the day
When suddenly appeared to me
The angel of dismay
We’d been acquainted for some time
And shared a thought or two
My history revealed to me
As both were passing through
She told me that I’d lost control
Of what and who I am
The image that I would create
Was such a wretched sham
She couldn’t stand alone for me
As others took control
A man of little consequence
No virtue to extol
My image was reflected there
Upon my clouded heart
But it I could not recognize
I must my time restart
She told me God was generous
And often he’d forgive
Allowing each another chance
To in this life now live
So I decided then and there
T’was time to make things right
And quickly did forgive myself
Then slept throughout the night
