Kadir
Ive fallen into a desert of the earth
Im not enough for me
Im not the solution for me
Im not the friend of me
My incapacity is eternal
My enemies numerous
My poverty limitless
Just because You exist, I shant be afraid of nothingness
Just because youre Capable, I shant be ashamed of my incapacity
Just because youre Merciful, I shant be bothered by my poverty
Aid my helplessness with your Might
Rescue my poverty with your Mercy
-Translated from A Book by Senai Demirci

I have a poem for you:
Roses are red.
Violets are black.
Why is your chest,
as flat as your back?

yeah instead of "I shant" try "I'll not" followed by "neither will I" as the next to the last example. Then the last can be a re-phrasing of the initial much as the same way music is altered for a bit of variety.
some of the self diminishing states are corrected by Christ right from the get-go such as not being your own friend, now that one doesn't fit for we are created in the image of God and God is our friend and IF we love God we love all of God's children which naturally includes ourselves. but then it appears to be a description of the lowest point and then rising out of that to co-union with god which is nice. Too bad it is apparently not the actual God from appearances that is my conclusion.

Great poem...the poem is all about God's love,grace and mercy to a desperate person.His only hope is God becuase he knows that that God's grace is sufficient and His love is unfailing.i think there is a similarity in Psalm 23.The Lord is my Shepherd.
Keep up the good work!God gives you knowledge and wisdom so use it for His glory.

Sounds like it was stolen from a book in the Bible. Ecclesiastics, or of course maybe Psalms.

It sounds like the writer of that poem finds joy in submiting to god or some other powerful figure that dominates. It soundsl like he/she finds comfort in the existance of god, and thus things like poverty, pain, and sadness are of no consiquence. I think that he/she is trying to rationalize the pain of his/her life by the existance of a god. It is as if "god" or any other dominating force could do no harm to him/her because he/she finds them to be the giver of joy. I think that he/she is depressed and wants god to save him/her.

With some added bongo-drums, I'd have to say it sounds like it was written by a depressed beatnik.

Very depressing... Write about the optimism you feel in your soul to lift others up above the common and ordinary...
