Let God

Let God

By May Kwek

Many times I have often been told

That in this dreary world we know

The most important thing is to use our minds

Or else life would not be kind

So blindly I have followed this rule

Whether at home or in school

Thinking about things day and night

Until they send me into a dreadful fright!

I could not find peace

I dared not trust

Cause when I did

Everything became a rush

People would shout out a billion things

You must do this and that and everything

How could I listen if they crowd my mind?

Among the noise what peace could I find?

And yet when I relied on my brain

Things became an awful shame

As it turned my thoughts against me

 And rebuked me for what I could but did not be

 So what could I do?

Trapped between the devil and the deep blue sea?

Either would spelt discontent

And on neither would I find peace

But I think I have found the secret

To give my mind a rest

And that is to not think too much

And let God do the rest

To throw aside the worries

And leave them at one side

And not wonder if I am doing

What I feel is right

I would never enjoy myself

If I am wondering if I am

And I would never make the journey

If I keep worrying about the end

So to live in the moment

However hard that might be

Is really what I feel

Would be the best option for me!
