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”
Where Truth Abides
Dead drawn Dream of light Below Confounded under heavy mist Laying, tunnel vision surrounding grove. Dream Sweep, Somehow hiding beneath; Depression or dream? Sleep or hypnotized hallucinations? I cannot tell anymore Truth confused in endless facts and tales How to know lie from love? Who am I, mere man to discern? How can I keepContinue reading “Where Truth Abides”
A Man with No Home
I wander and wonder I seek and do no find I see places and I see people But no home is found for me here. I make acquaintances I thought I made friends I thought I had a family What I thought I had never was. Place to place Person to person One job toContinue reading “A Man with No Home”
Fighting to Believe
Teach me Your ways O’ Lord Show me what it is to do Your Will Lead me in ways of righteousness Confusion haunts the wandering mind. How to discern what is true? How to discern what is false? How to know the difference between? Which water will bring life and which will bring sickness? ReligionContinue reading “Fighting to Believe”
Poetry: Where to Go, What to Do?
Here, Hard to say much more than that Hard to explain where we’re at Hard to make out up from down Yet maybe more clear than ever. Long Waiting, Patiently on the seashore Watching the wind and the waves Months and months go by no change When will the sun break Day. Nuclear winter, SkyContinue reading “Poetry: Where to Go, What to Do?”
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”
Poetry – Relapse into Panic
Knives They dive deep into my gut Rolling around like sickness Devastating blow to my body I fall to the ground Can’t get up Floods of tingling waves Too deep to Explain Stabbing, fear, hurt, sickness They are all I feel Those I trust They hurt so much Adonai, What escape do I have fromContinue reading “Poetry – Relapse into Panic”
Poetry/Psalm/Prayer: Recurring Tide
High Tide Bright Light Washes like glowing Ice Breaking through the constancy of life. Try to hide No use in lies Finding Truth Only revealed by light Winter’s snow covers Deep insulting scars Leaving man to wonder Left painfully under cover. Hope, Hope in the invisible Hope in the impossible Hope in the improbable. CanContinue reading “Poetry/Psalm/Prayer: Recurring Tide”
Poetry: The Birth of Dawn
Seek Heal Relief All so Ill Adonai We need Your fill Hashem May it be Your will. Music to my ears Beneath the wings cascading feel We’ve become so unreeled Wildfire haze, clear sky reveal. Sunrise, Mid-day Look up, children let’s play! Orange glow no more Midnight no longer in day! Dance, the dawn breaks!Continue reading “Poetry: The Birth of Dawn”
