Poem
When the past tears apart the courageous, leaving… Bloodstained bodies – trembling tears, silence, Nightmares, grief and no reassurance or relief, In the distance, so much disbelief, where honor Wore its shimmering veil – stands a mirror, Haunted by the pain that trails every shame, moments… Riding on hills of disenchanted reasons, despairing, While feelings flood the darkest nights, growing, In aches, in pain, in waves of heartbreak, weeping, Deafened by the silent winds, breathing, seething, Glistening in star strewn skies, feelings that feel like a light coming on… Decidedly the best feeling I’ve known, a laugh, a smile, a song lingers on, Trembling with joy, with hope, with a knowing that this life is not wrong, It is a life built by threads of despair and darkness, brought to the light, Who silences the distant fear, the rejection – with tender affection, Heartbroken, pieces of light, glowing, boasting of praise, of peace, of prayers, Fed by the broken wings, the little dreams, the burdens left in the past to bleed, Wonderful glimpses of a forever who agrees that tomorrow is worth more, More like the beautiful in the gentlest rains, the soothing in a cloudy day, Mourning, and glowing with the most sincere faith, believing, Lessons are learned when the truth is finally told… Our hearts are more than just fates to explore, We are destiny in the making, a promise, hope, We blend freedom with answers, light with grace, Together, we know the meaning of life’s race, Familiar, our lives fall away from the distant fears, Leaving only the memories of those bottled tears, When we were lonely, disenchanted, in despair, While others felt like living, we felt like giving up, Falling down into the abyss of dreaded doubts… Soon, we grew together… a feeling, afresh, the feeling, so blessed, Miracles in the making, wonders that can’t be expressed without prayers, Moments felt more than a heart can accept, felt like the winds in the limbs, Unburdened by the air we breathe, confessing only the greatest need, We need to always believe… in the One who brought us the victory… In tones of light, falling safe into the arms of insight, the beautiful hope… Glowing through the darkness, never wearying – always comforting, He is the way, the truth, the life… the promise of a faith that sees… Beyond the pain, through the darkness and change, through everything, Into the eyes, familiar and wise… eyes of a love that never gives up, A love that comes alive because He created those deep blue skies, Love that is such a surprise – it is music, colored by rhythms of joy, Falling softly into the spirit who knows Him, adores Him, shows Him… Love that He stirred when the heart was reborn, saved by grace, Brought to life, urged to feel – beyond the self, Into the song, the reason, the light… Selflessness… Who knows that He is… the reflection of God’s love, the image of One… Who abides in those who’ve known what it means, To find the peace, the belief… Trusting the One who is God’s one and only Son, Jesus, the Savior of the world, The Savior of my soul, The One who makes me whole, The guarantee, the hope of hopes… Forever, I’ll sing with tones of victory, Mingled in my tears, never alone in fear, Because always, He is here and He hears, He is here and He brings my heart relief, He is my hope, my light, my belief… He is more than everything – He can restore anything. He is light and love – He comes from God above… To reveal the truth of a grace that saves even the worst offender. His love made me and saved me… His love gave me… The answers to my tears, the comfort for my fears, joy throughout the years! Because He lives – I live!
