Analysis of Selfminded

William brooks 1959 (Salem)



Please forgive us Lord when we think in our mind that we know it all. We must realize we're running out of time and must answer God's call. How stubborn we are thinking we know best trying to lead our life. For it only causes a lot of stress without God nothing is precise. I'll do it on my own that is what we say I really think that I can. False state of mind even forgetting to pray yes destruction of man. There's no way out by doing it alone that is a true fact. Without the savior we'd be on our own so stop putting on an act.

About this poem

Sometimes we often forget who is running the show and want to make decisions on our own. That is when the grief comes into play.
