I warn you, this gets depressing, but so were the psalms hehe........
Staring into a black hole
with only my faith for company.
Holding on tight to the knowledge
of One who promises me something better.
Beyond the four walls of this dull existence.
Time to hang in there.
I leave the light on, so I’m no longer alone.
Voices on my screen, keep me sane.
I feel pain though, and it’s very real.
This black and white existence
painted with the colour of an eternal optimism…
I see Your face; Your blueprint, all around me.
You set my heart alight with tales of an endless love.
You reached out to me, in my darkness;
my despair gnaws away at the very heart.
Plagued with jealousy, I turn inward,
as thoughts play on my mind.
This restless spirit, always wandering,
never settling.
A mind that comes alive with thoughts of grandeur,
and quickly dies.
Turn my heart to thoughts of Heaven,
arrest me in my wickedness.
This empty shell of a man, who knows
what it means to love…
Autocratic wanderings
as I long for a power to to things my way.
Endless darkness awaits us when we
turn aside, along the pilgrim way.
Help me to stay.
Is this love a lie,
that causes me to reach so high,
yet takes the ball away,
so I cannot play?
I watch the other boys and girls
laughing in the sunshine.
A substitute with no chance of scoring.
I fell in love with the summer sun,
yet winter killed it before it had begun.
I stare into the water, longing for the other side,
as broken dreams lie waste on the bottom
along with my Titanic pride.
Eats me alive.
I want to die.
This dull pain prods my heart until I cry myself
to sleep.
Keep me until I reach the other side of dreams.
Don’t let me drown,
this town sucks the very life from me.
This dead end.
