A Letter to My President

From a Friend

Debra Paulsen
Barack Obama

My trust is in you,

To do the things

no one else could do.

Straighten out the mess

left behind by the rest,

I know it won't be easy

But now I got the best.

These things you see

have been taken from me,

every where that I look

sea to shining sea.

Trust, unity

and Brotherly Love,

At times I even feared

I lost the Lord's Love

from Above.

Barack Obama

My Trust is in you

To do the things

no one else could do.

Please Heal my Hurts,

Wipe away my tears,

ease the doubts about me,

That have festered

for years.

President Barack Obama I beg

Right the wrongs and ease my pain,

I don't care anymore

who was to blame.

Barack Obama

My Trust is in you

To do the things

no one else could do.

I've been used and abused,

Let down time and again

a couple times I even thought

It might be the end

This time around though

I'm in a really tough scrape,

Do you know who I am?

I'm The United States.

Barack Obama

My Trust is in you

To do the things

no one else could do.

    P.S.
    He talked a good talk, but has stumbled and fallen on his face walking the walk.

    I actually trust no one, and wrote this last year. Hope is always a good thing, sometimes all that we are left with, and I wrote this "hoping"... Thought he might be different, but just more of the same I must agree now. SOSDD :)Too bad though would have been nice to have had some real changes, God knows we have needed it for so long:( No Help for the heartbeat of America from these quarters in MHO.

    You don't seriously think he is better than the ones we have had before him--Do you?
