Look around you, what do you see? How can you describe the situation of the world today? How are you living your life? What would you do if the world ends now? Do you have a safe square? I found mine and I'll like to share it with you.

MY SAFE SQUARE

Between the devil and the deep blue sea,
Even hope I didn't see.
Any escape from the world's turmoil?
Or do I continue to toil.

Life has become a living hell,
Its twist like that of a snare.
I'm gripped by fear,
Where's my safe square?

Do I run to an insane society,
Where everyone is drown in hypocritical piety?
I dear not
Unless I wanna go nuts.

What of a church?
More like a compromising couch.
Puts up with anything-everything, for what?
Money & fame, neglecting the rot.

My parents,
Wonderful caretakers have they been.
Took good care of the child patent,
Groomed me into a wonderful being,
What more can they do?

Then brought to mind,
The person I had kept behind.
Beautiful beyond description,
The Center of my attraction.

Acknowledging His presence in my life,
I knew I had found a Hive.
A shield from the ills of this world,
By faith according to His word.

I need less be told,
I had found my safe square.
Christ my stronghold,
For Him I'd be a mare.

I love Him so much,
I'm sure He knows I do.
He is my Church.
What He says I'll do.
