Goodness Of God Poem by Dorsey Baker

He didn't really
want to end his life
he just wanted to be
out of his pain
his pain
was so intense!
he had tried drugs
he had tried alcohol
he had tried meditation
he had tried
everything he could think of!
so he made up
his mind
he would try one more thing!
he would walk
into the dark room
no one would know
where he had went
and what he had
decided to do!
he would take off
his shoes
bow down his head
get down upon his knees!
close his eyes
and pray
to God!
