RISE

The Well.

The lowest part of my life.

It's so dark down here.
Cold.
Lonely.

I look up at the well mouth and see, just a trace of light.
Love is so far away from me.

Life is now a cold joke.

I am actually becoming comfortible here.
I've grown accustom to the dark.
Being thrown away and forgotten is my new normal.

Well, at least God loves my neighbors.

I hope I die well.

I look around me, and my room is a wreck.
I have garbage as tall as my night stand.
I haven't seen the floor in a year.
Accept for my little dirty path to the door.
The carpet hates me.
I only shower for defensive reasons.
I should go back to hanging up my clothes.
Well,... maybe I should clean them first.
Is that a pizza box from last month?
How come I didn't smell it?

I'm disgusting,
and the mirror said amen to that.
The mirror is a bitch.

Fuck you mirror.
Fuck you pizza box.
Fuck you,...Well.

Rise

I grabbed the pizza box,
and ran it to the over filled garbage can.
I set on top. It fell off.
I got more pissed at the Well, and ran the garbage
out of the house and dump it out, [Without a
garbage bag,] into the dumpster.
The neighbors are gonna love me for that.
But I didn't care.
All I knew is that the Well didn't like it.

I smiled as I walked back into the house,
with the neighbors gawking at the site of
seeing me, [Some for the first time,] 
strutting in my tattered sleepware.

I close the door laughing,
and without out thinking I reloaded my
garbage can, gleefully.
Throwing out yet another foot of darknest from
The Well.

Rise.

I must have thrown half of my house away
that day. Even some of my good clothes.
I didn't care, The Well was my bitch now,
at least I was winning at something.

I looked up, and Love got a little bit closer.

Through out the week, I would focus on a
small part of my house at a time.
Everyday I saw more floor.
Every day the mouth of The Well got brighter.
Every day God, got a little more prouder.
So did I.

...RISE.

THRILLED

Do you hate GOD?

Do you not Trust GOD?

Do you not believe that you were chosen by GOD?

Do you have GOD?

Hate.
Jealousy.
Pretentiousness.
Anger.
...Depression.

Anyone who suffer from these Spiritual Illnesses,
have lost their Connection.

They have lost their Drive.
They have lost their Faith.
Think about it, everyone you know who's
personality embodies these traits,
are going down. Not up.

Hopfulness.
Happiness.
Encouragement.
Loving.
...Positvity.

These are the traits of those who believe,
those who are winning,
those who are going up.
Not down.

In short, When you believe that GOD has your back,
you are Thrilled to meet the new day.
You are Thrilled to be alone.
You are Thrilled to reinvent yourself,
and start again.
You are Thrilled to do GOD's work.

BECAUSE YOU KNOW YOU'RE
GOING TO WIN!

If you ever find yourself in the absents of GOD,
remember that it's just your frame of mind.
GOD will never leave you,
but if you don't ask for help,

...you may not get it.

Get in a quiet place, and count your blessings.
Pray several times, daily.
GOD makes People share more when you Smile.

Remember,
Negativity is proof that you don't Believe.
Jealousy is proof that you don't Believe.
Depression, is proof that you don't Believe.

Everybody's spirit needs to be refilled.
Believe that GOD got your back,
and you will stay...THRILLED.
