A Letter of Hope

I recieved a letter from my sister, a letter of hope and healing.


When The Devil Wakes Me

Now I lay me down to sleep and pray to the Lord as the devil creeps
from the depths of hell to my despair and wraps his fingers in my hair
while whispering promises into my ear to do his bidding and have no fear.
I pretend to sleep and not to hear and block it out and make it clear, that I have faith in
none but God. The devil paused and thought it odd, for so long did I do his will, to plot and plunder, to rob and steal. He laughed so hard it shook the ground, then promised he come back around, to try again another day, and until then I'll bow and pray, "so help me Lord", I'll put in work and cast away what evil lurks. That I may smile again at those three faces, my nephews and niece who wait for me; Colby, Chase, and Josie. God keep me safe, so I can be free and those babies can see a brand new me.
