Analysis of Never Alone...
A Poet I am,
without a serious plan.
Just walking through life,
straight through its strife.
I always wondered why,
why start below the sky.
Put in a world filled people,
told how to live under a steeple.
Their desires I did live,
till they had nothing more to give.
Then I thought of taking my own life,
because I had grown sick & tired of the strife.
Then I told the Lord Im coming home,
He said stay a while longer & Ill never leave you alone...
