I see you
The sparkling light in my window sill
The ambient separator of darkness
You gleam through when the dark seems strong
The upright defender
The power source

It's a war i see
and sometimes it seems like it surrounds me ever fast
I wonder why I must be encompassed by the dark
the screeching foul sound of air escaping
the odor of death ringing at every door step
the blind man trips at the unruly roots of a fickle and decaying tree

I see the men working earnestly to sharpen their swords
Your men
But they take their eyes off the light and they cannot see what they are doing
they cannot see where their swords should sit or how their helmets might stay on their heads
"Where are you?" They cry. "Why don't you deliver?" they shout
in circles they run, hitting walls as they try
and they mock the light in fear of it because they begin to know the darkness all too well

My heart begins to pound
it beats a strong drum
"Why Lord why" "why am I here?"
"amongst the men who live in fear?'
I hear you say "my child don't fear"
"you are here because I am here"

I am all alone I protest with cheeks flush red and river run eyes
I see it again the darkness surround
I wonder how long I am safe and sound
I beg you "Lord, surely here they will tear me apart
A declaration from the voice in my heart
he retorts, "But a light shines biggest and brightest in the dark"

1+1+ again tonight's dreaming has led me to hear again
Sisters insight from the Big White Light.
Mans Puppeteer with magnetic force over head;
my metal wires cut but dangling, and the wind is picking up.
I move to fast and I become attached.
I don't move at all, and I'm forced.
Fear's Fear is running circles because of lefts.
The Forks don't have signs because they're not supposed to.
when I make a right it's humbling.
I feel the belt tightening and my cheeks are returning color
I thank but want to want
I ask but wonder Y I'm asking
He knows.
But what's His Name?

Its Why a Nick name btw

I dont know of anyothers out there
Are they like me Lord?
I dont want to be Joseph in there eyes
But I Love the Colors!
A childlike heart is breaking for the 6
Little eyes that the enemy has taken.
For Now

Truly a profound and well written poem. I must say it felt like not only a prayer but an intercession, interceding cry for the hurt that you see. Finally, there is a saying, "God shines brightest when things seem darkest.''

Sister, I've sinned again, and this time it's so much harder to confess to others. I know how He can only use me when I'm at 100% surrender. I've given in to temptation. I've looked back when I should have kept my eyes in-front. I'm wrong and need to be humbled again.

Exodus 4:22 & John 5:43 will give you some help on why the council of Nicea ( which the Pope Athanasius & early church daddys not fathers ) selected the 66 books and changed the Word of God to a book and turned our Immanooel into a man's name. ( Jesus )

Sorry for the weird scope your reading, but I wanted to tell you the truth before I said anything about our Everlasting Father. I don't deserve to know Him. I don't deserve to be in His wonderful Grace! Praise our King!

Seek Ye First! Why would the enemy change the most powerful name in all creation? Romans 10:13 is a powerful verse. So no wonder the enemy did it.
