What's hiding in your soul?
So I thought I’d slap up a few random, unfinished poems I’ve been working on. I figured that some of you might enjoy them, and who knows, maybe some of you might have a few suggestions for which direction to go with them.
This ones a little bit hopeless so far.
The sky is gray this morning
The clouds blot out my view
And I can’t see beyond my doubts
Beyond my swirling fears
I fear that the world we’re
To our children leaving
Is no longer a place
That’s worthy to believe in
It’s filled with hate, and war, and sadness
Gone are love, and joy, and gladness
We buried them deep in soil and in earth
Lost sight of the Kingdom promising rebirth.
I like this one so far, but it still needs a beginning. (You can tell, because it starts with “but” and my grade eight teacher told me you can’t do that).
But you don’t condemn me
And you don’t accuse
You came to forgive me
To make all things new
So I will love
And I will dream
And I will hope
And I will be
The difference
And I will be
The difference
This one was feeling a bit like a worship chorus, or something.
I have come today
To open up my heart
To let myself be vulnerable
Believing that’s the start
of life in you.
Of life anew
So here I am
Standing open before you
Trusting that you’ll love me
That your grace’ll come shining through
Making my heart new
Shaping me into you.
I haven’t got any idea what this is supposed to be, but it ended up in my journal, so I thought I’d share it here.
When I go, I will bring your love
As I live, I will share your hope
When I speak, I will tell your dreams
And I will serve the King
Of all that is.
Anyways, so that’s some of the weird stuff that’s been banging around my head lately.
Blessings,
