Description: I am lost. My values are lost in my eyes. It's as if I don't know where to go when before I knew exactly just where I was. And even if everyone else can't find me, I know that my God, my savior will...for the rest of my life.
I walked out of that room.
The thunderous echo of silence
Revealed my unsatisfied need
Of this lust I try to feed
As each time my conscience
Reminds me who it is
That I am supposed to please
I ran on that road.
Racing to get to the top
While everyone else
Is going the other way.
I tried to tell them
But I didn’t know what to say
So they could go to the Realm.
I watched that preaching.
Why my heart was convicted
With everything that was said
Till today I still don’t know
Why I just can’t let it all go.
Release this desire to fit in
For me to disconnect from sin
God, please direct my soul.
Steer me to your will
Because to you I want to give my all.
Today I want to be your child
And march by your side
For the rest of my life.
it seems like there is a struggle going on inside of you,temptation seems to have got the better hand but your concience remminds you that it is not the right path to follow.sometimes it is easier to do wrong than right,but if you have the faith in you then i am sure that it will get the upper hand eventually.
thanks for the read.
tschüß
very to the point and carefully written astride the serpent path. Yes, there are habits that like as to a drug drag us to the pits where our conscience screams,"Let go ! Let go! " we look to scripture and are consoled when the Lord says,"A just man sins seven times a day. I say to you forgive not seven times but seventy times seven." In the language of his day, seven represented a perfect number, yet he is saying that perfection is not enough when it comes to forgiving. We should reach beyond perfection when it comes to forgiving. thus, we have in the Lord a friend beyond perfection who in His love never tires of forgiving. I can hear Jesus when I go to confession as the priest says," In the name of Jesus, I absorb you of your sins. Go, and make amends."
Mother Angelica says," We should not say that our sins are greater than God's mercy."
I tremendously enjoyed the feel of exasperation as a soul reaches out to make amends as portrayed in this write of yours.
Your writing keeps getting better and better.
I'm really glad that you're opting to write about stuff that are less cliché these days.
That's what keeps readers interested.
As for the actual poem itself, the message is very strong. Now that I've read it three times now, It's even clearer that this wasn't what I first thought of it as.
I think the title fits very well too, and helps warn readers that this isn't all about Lust, etc. It's very clear to see that you want to get away from the world and be left alone to be with the Word.
Interesting. Kind of lost its flow and rhythm there towards the end. The message was all so soothing though. The presentation of the message got lost in the last part of it though. Delightful to read nonetheless...unless...unless...well, unless there were words that flowed as if they were liquid.
