When I thought I was down and out,
I hoped for a different route.
I tried to stop the satanic voices in my head,
That were telling me I was better off dead.
I was ready to give up everything that I had,
The thoughts in my head were driving me mad.
I used to pray day and night to God for a child of my own,
Now that I gave her life, I'm gonna take my own.
I used to pray that God sends me the man that I deserved...
And that deserved me,
And He gave me that, so how could this be...
That I now want to end the life that I prayed so hard for?
I almost lost the job that I worked so hard to get,
And to not worry them, I told them I was just sick.
But now I see why I didn't follow through.
I have so much to live for!
With Satan, this child of God, is always at war.
But I had to remember who I am and whose I am,
No longer will I allow Satan to bring me down!
For him to make me want to take
the life that I've prayed for, for so long.
I remember where my strength comes from,
And I'm reminded that the best is yet to come.

Selena is an emotional, deep writer, and poet by heart. Often times she comes up with uniquely, crafted, thought-provoking pieces that often times seem surreal to even fathom, but keep in mind that sometimes her literatures are not intended to be taken literally. I believe her pieces are meant to expose the raw truth about the many conflictions we, as humans, have to deal with on a daily basis. Not only in a physical nature, but a spiritual one at best. If we be honest and transparent with ourselves, we can relate to this very fact. A spiritual battle wages on behind the canopy of this carnal world, and one of the prized possessions the enemy wants to get a hold on is, your mind. Selena's goal in sharing her literature is to bless others and to let you know, you are never alone in this thing called life.
