They say the rains of Katrina broke the levies,
But it was really the weight of my pain.
Years of disappointment gave way to tears that filled the ocean,
Flooding the city, until drowning was the only option I had left.
I.
Reached up to the sky
And I called out to God.
Are you there God?
It's me Kendra!
Please send in your troops immediately
Tell FEMA to get here as fast as they can
Because my life is in a state of emergency
I see the sign for first aid
And it looks like the Cross to me
It appears just out of my reach
So all hope seems lost to me
And it just might cost me
MY LIFE
I imagine You save me
Are you there God?
Its me Kendra
Disaster struck last night
In the form of an earthquake
It
Shook me to my core
And all my walls came tumbling down
Exposing the inner me
The weight of cement almost crushes me
I hear the pain of my loved ones
As they cry out in agony
Please
Come
And save us from ourselves

I had family and friends who lives were scarred and homes damaged by Hurricane Katrina. It has and will always remain dear to my heart. So much in fact that I, through my then employment volunteered to help aid the remaining New Orleans natives in their relocation efforts. I pretty much witnessed the hopeless and lonesome atmosphere experienced by many during Katrina's aftermath. Also, being unselfish and humble, I always pray that God sends Him back to save the world and make it a much better place for ALL who believe in the spirit of love.
