bereft, alone
heartbroken, unglued
why have I been driven
from all I’ve known?
confusing thoughts
unsettling me
why can’t I sort things
into sensible files?
pretending good
outweighs evil
when did I begin
deceiving myself?
priorities
cannot be ordered
when did everything
lose importance?
shattered dreams
haunting my days
what demon slipped in
and stole all hope?
Lord, all is lost
in this crazy world
when did I decide
to throw in the towel?
My child, listen
I’m sure you’ve heard
when was it you stopped
believing My Word?
I know you’re tired
and feel so alone
did I not promise
I’d always be here?
allow Me to clear
the junk from your head
why don’t you fill yourself
with My mercy and grace?
if you follow Me
good will beat out evil
does not Revelations
promise the victory is won?
now give Me your hand
lay your head on My shoulder
why not allow Me
to show what’s important?
believe Me, My child
you are never alone
why not give Me your demons
and let Me welcome you home?
