The Pit

A poem from 2017

Brother hatred
Brother jealousy

Brother conspirators
To kill me and throw me in a pit

Brother responsibility
To throw me alive into the pit
To come back later and rescue me

Stripped
Thrown
But I will trust in You

Brother greed
Brother opportunist
To spare my life
To sell me into slavery

Chained
Dazed
But I will trust in You

Brothers cruel
Brothers callous
To tear my coat
To dip it in animal blood
To report my death to my devoted father
To inflict misery on his dear soul

But I will trust in You
My story hasn't ended
Chapters will be written
Ups and downs
Dreams and nightmares
Promises and promises
Glory and glory
