No Matter: Original Poem by Coletha Albert

No matter what others do to you

It matters what you do

No matter what others say about you

It matters what you do

Can others control you?

By what they say and do?

How they abuse you?

How they neglect you?

How they love you?

How they protect you?

How they support you?

How they defend you?

How they lobby for you?

How they admonish you?

No matter what others do

To you

For you

Around you

Or behind your back

You can’t control that

They get the benefit or curse for that

What matters is what you do

Despite what others do

You decide to trust a fool

That’s up to you

You decide to be jealous and untrue

That’s up to you

You choose to be manipulated

That’s up to you

You choose to blame others for what you could NEVER do

That’s up to you

You choose to understand you

That’s up to you

You choose honor over disgrace

You choose to good choices over mistake

You choose life, goodness, and grace

You choose integrity and faith

You choose safety to be great

You put aside delusions and shame

You rebuke possession and death

You rebuke mental illness and everything else

That keeps you from your destiny

That those who pray for you can see

We are here sure as you breath

In your health we live and breath

Even though our faces you never see

We are here, always believe

It’s up to you to choose your destiny

If you choose self pity

If you choose self hate

If you choose abuse

If you choose to manipulate

It won’t stop GOD from being great

If you choose atheism and hate

It won’t stop GOD from being great

If you choose booze and drugs as your fate

It won’t stop GOD from being great

The world will keep turning

Time will move on

GOD is still great

No matter…

Remember everything is NOT about you…
Vanity is the ultimate opioid.,,,
Life is a quagmire without faith and love for the Almighty God
