poems, by Terrell Yarbrough

“things I been going through”
“war”
my body gets older as my heart gets colder, but that’s the price I pay to live the life of a soldier,
the life of a soldier where things never last, were the ones you love the most become a thing of your past.
and your past
God’s love for me
look I hope god don’t see my life in a flash,
I hope he slows it down a bit and see I was young acting fast.
I hope he sees I’ve done good things as well as bad,
and as many tears I’ve made other’s shed I’ve also had.
I hope he sees I was forced to grow up quick,
and I apologize that my actions weren’t always legit.
I was raised right with good morals and taught to be a man,
but god I hope you still love me homie I’m doing the best I can lord I don’t know what happened to me.
and I’m sorry for the pain I’ve cause on earth,
sometimes I often question why you didn’t just take me at birth.
lord by a small chance I hope you see…
this is your lost child crying from the penitentiary,
I hope you hear me

  1. He hears you. He has been with you through every moment of your life, he is closer than your own heartbeat.

  2. Shut your punkass up. Enjoy jail for life, stupid. “I’m a soldier” yeah only against unarmed white college kids sleeping in their house. You’re a bitch terrell it’s a shame our tax money keeps a waste of air like you alive

  3. I was one of Brian’s best friends and have forgiven you. The reason Brian’s mom begged for you not to have the death penalty is because she wanted to give you every opportunity to find and make amends with our Lord before you die . I hope you have made peace with him. This life is temporary. We look forwars to seeing Brian one day in heaven and I hope you will get to join us.
