Peace?

Filled With Kindness...

On the darkest of nights
When I think I’m all alone
And I cry with a broken heart
He hears me

On the loneliest of days
When I think everyone has left me
And I sit in the corner of my room
He sees me

On the tiresome of weeks
When I think I could die
And I sink to despair
He wraps his hands around me

Every moment of my life
When I cry, laugh or wilt away
And can’t find a reason to live
He is near me
He pulls me out of the miry pit
He puts me on the solid rock
He gives me a reason to live

The love that is filled with kindness
Never gives up on me
And I am thankful for all the time
 God forsook my sins and cleansed me 

Draw me Near

I have read your Word, Lord
Your words resound in my ears.
Each day passes with my belief,
My belief of my righteousness.
Yet, there is heaviness in me,
As if a rock binds itself to this feeble heart.
I cover it up with much prayer and meditation,
I try Lord, to condemn this burden as mere temptation;
Satan’s way of wavering this wretched hart.
I cannot bear this pain any longer,
Lord, free me from my desperation.
Change me, make me stronger,
Help me know you truly.
Destroy the pride that hinders the closeness I desire,
The yearning to be called your friend.
Wash me Lord, Try me in the burning fire,
May I be found as I have yearned.
Mend me and mold me, my Potter,
Make me the way you desire.
Guide me and serenade me, my Shepherd,
Let me be as a trained horse that trotter.

Lost in Nothingness

Insomnia visits the lazy trees
Never letting them gently fall asleep
Awakens them with a nudge of warm breeze
Thrusts them back to slumber so deep.
Kaikias strikes and their peaceful sleep is lost
Troubles of life come rushing hastily
Will zephyr appear by their side to melt their frost?
Finding no solace unwillingly rest they eternally.

Comfort I tried to find in this world’s arms
Further I sunk into the worries brought by them
The closer I get to this world’s promised solace
The greater was the pain inflicted by those tender wings
My heart breaks, my heart aches
It longs for something, yet I know not what.
The pangs of pain beat upon my chest,
Suffocating my attempts to halt my thought.
It bangs, It shouts, It clouds my inner self
It endlessly tugs at memories long forgotten.
