Drenched in Thy Love



~ Drenched in Thy Love ~





















My body born heavy
Feeling forsaken
Thrown to the beasts of darkness
Gnawing, devouring all hope
Nightmarish imaginings
Strangling my voice, silencing
Truth

Questions devour this heart
Oh God! Is this life?
Save me! Lift me up!
Fill me to the brim with
The beauty of your Light!

Silencing the lies
Giving trumpets to truth
I fall away from dreams
Landing upon that small space

I Am Home

Impregnating my soul as I breathe out
Inhaling your Love, your Cause, Your Grace
My Spirit floats away into my heart
Heaven was always within
Anticipating the return!

I am drenched in thy love
I am riddled with desire
I am obsessed with memory
Eternity lures like thick sweet honey
Alas, I am One with You

My Burdened Heart





Beneath cold skies of night
My heart beats
Grasping to survive
Trying to not drown
In tears

Quietly I slip into velvet
Blackness
Cold air
Caresses my thoughts
I’m suffocating

Loss of hope
Forgotten dreams
Faith disappears
In the morrow
I’m crushed
Again

My burdened heart
Barely beats
My burdened heart
Beats toward
Nothingness

Nothing becomes safer
Than something
Absent moments
Collide with fears
I’ve no strength

Cold skies of night
Dressed in velvet darkness
Have stolen
My hope
My grace

My faith
