Life & Death Haikus: There's A Difference (Original Poem)

verbal-d (71) in poetry • 7 years ago

I'm not religious
The world thinks yes... But in Christ
I am spiritual...

I arose from the depths of humble beginnings, merely as dust, with life of spirit breathed into my vessel, and I make it clear, my faith, so that I do my part in sharing the gospel, even at the cost of being hated by the world. So be it, if they believe me to be brainwashed, but they are not responsible for my salvation, they are not my brother's keeper, and only I can make this choice.

Thank you for reading & viewing this post in its entirety, I hope you enjoyed it for what it's worth.

Hey brooo ken, lol it is @adsactlyrecords. Yeah I am the vice president, but you must speak with @rondonson, as he is the President and he decides first and foremost on which artists we sign. Feel free to comment him or hit him up on Discord

You're welcome, it's all good. I try to do research before inquiring, especially if I don't know the name. We're all human though, it happens

You're seeping with so much spirituality, it only takes you three line and 17 syllables to show it to the world. It's one thing to be concise, but it's another to be so passionate that you don't need to be elaborate to convey. Nice job, brother!
