Triumph in Pain

Bled out on the floor before you. Life has taken it all away from me. Lacerations scar my body, my soul. Whipped and beaten, Barely keeping my head from the floor. Cold winter blasts Chills down to the bones Curled up like a child I cry out to you. Emotional Scars Crack through my chestContinue reading “Triumph in Pain”

Dark Lonely Afraid

Why so lonely my child? All the bad feelings parade around. Where can salvation from this be found? Or do I find a home in this frightful grave? I just can’t seem to find the way. I go from here to there still hurt and battered and afraid. There seems no salvation from this awfulContinue reading “Dark Lonely Afraid”

Long Lost in Lonely Darkness

Long Lost in Lonely Darkness I now see the Light So long have I been waiting To take hold of you Discovering what’s greater than gold. Such sorrow, so much pain! It’s all now been released to You. Everything I have, everything I am I now give to you No longer do I hold. GriefContinue reading “Long Lost in Lonely Darkness”

You and I

In the idea of night I search for You. Is there hope in my plight? Do I breathe life’s deepest need? What sorrow has been undone? Rivers calm Heart runs wild Mind never stops Love run wild I’ve lost control Where do I begin? Poisoned blood pumps through my veins Mind wrought with invading floods.Continue reading “You and I”

Glimpse of Light in the Dark of Night

Can I hold on tight? Fear pursuing, Dead of Night, Lies prey on my mind. Can I trust something so distant? Will I fall into the lies of fear? Or will I hold onto the hope of truth? My God, be my faith before light. Why Oh why in the darkness do I hide? ThereContinue reading “Glimpse of Light in the Dark of Night”

How to know the difference between? Which water will bring life and which will bring sickness? ReligionContinue reading “Fighting to Believe”

UNASHAMED

Abba, They haunt me Voices, They haunt me. Speaking to me in endless night. They remind me that I am nothing They threaten to leave me abandoned They tell me I will be alone They leave me with no voice. They…You You remind me of my worth You tell me I am never alone YouContinue reading “UNASHAMED”

Poetry: Stepping Out on the Water

Haunting Fear Creeps at the door Seeps through every crevice Deep down dark below. Weighing down Like a blanket of darkness Covering every glimmer Blocking light and glow. Why must you persist? Why must you keep knocking? Darkness, be gone! I’m done with your haunting. Circumstances keep coming Your Love never fails Faith in Hell?Continue reading “Poetry: Stepping Out on the Water”

Fear and Courage

All healthy men fear. If we did not fear, we’d conclude that something was mentally wrong with us, and yet the same can be said when fear takes a gripping hold over our life. So fear is a balance between maintaining healthy fear while not falling into the grip of unhealthy fear. I believe forContinue reading “Fear and Courage”
