Notes About The Poem

Written on December 7, 2024

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Only the Lonely



the lonely write their stories
in hearts who know the joy
of their light, spoken at night
across the moonlit silhouettes
where peace and love have met
coloring the dreams in peace
it seems…

the lonely ache, a lasting fate
while shadows mourn and relicts
fade from the heart, breathing
hope and light, restoring the glow
beyond the stars who remember
what became of November…

the lonely kiss each limping gaze
always alive, so God can amaze
with His blessings, forever I’ll praise
the One who abides – a spirit’s grace,
the wonder of knowing, my soul
it is saved – by the One who listens…

to the lonely who remember
all the words that fell
from the lips of December
all the world has been healed
by the love who was sent here
to color the world in gentle
love that will forever glitter
on the stars, in the hearts….

Wherever love seeks to sigh
with the words – sent to the lonely,
those who know the joyous 
that comes from loving beyond the hopes,
love much surer than the mind can know
love that came to us …

from the Savior who was sent, with love
promising forever from heaven above…

only the lonely can truly remember
the melting words, the poetry
signed by December, signed in the blood
poured out so we can see beyond the doubts
to the very center of a love that is living
in the hearts who believe, 
the souls who agree…

God’s Son is our greatest need
God’s Son breaths hope through the dreams
God’s Son is the reason I believe…
even the lonely can know the meaning of peace
even the lonely can know the wind’s breath
even the lonely can feel what it is to be stilled
by the Father of love, the God from above,
the One who sent our Savior to break sin’s power over us,
the One who brought the answers –
the answer is still written by love….

the lonely have always known, this love 
comes from the pen of God,
the author of grace,
the One who gave us His Son,
the wonder of the greatest love…

the lonely know sorrow, pain and doubt
but, because of Jesus – they still shout…
God is alive – He will never die
And because He’s alive, our hearts will survive,
Our story is the kind written over time,
The story of a light, setting fires of insight
Beneath those who believe He’s alive
And His love will always survive
His love assures me of a life that is bright,
A life that is worthwhile, a life that reminds
I’m saved by the One who thought I was to die for!
