Give me Revelation
9-8-13
I so want to show
the way through darkness.
You were so good at it,
I pale like the moon.
Can I not handle it,
am I still too lost?
I fight the bad thoughts seeping in. You never seemed to pause.
Can I not achieve awakening, this deep shining, kindling of a spark.
I wish this ugliness would leave my mind, yet forget just as often.
You were walking amazing every day, I can’t begin to fathom this.
Can I not end this war
in my head, can you?
I fight it, daily, hourly,
moment by moment.
You promised us all
eternal love and life,
I know it’s all true.
Can I not be your voice,
will you give me revelation?
I so want to glorify you,
but I rarely measure up.
You were love incarnate,
yet I don’t deserve to kiss
the dirt beneath your feet.
Can I not still try… please…
just forgive me ahead of time!
Like you did the first time!

Where did my comment go.
I was saying: I was gonna say you did so…… by these lyrics, then I saw Third Day. Tight lines.
I remember I have seen a number of your poems that would do awesomely well as song lyrics too. So I think your lyrics are beautiful.
I didn’t plan on them being lyrics, I just couldn’t get the song out of my head! thanks Doc!!!
I guess the artist’s muse is real.
lovely format and message.
funny you should say that….I’ve written so much for God I’m running out of ways to write it…without just writing the same poem over and over again… thanks! 🙂
OH HOLLIE, I accidently deleted a comment you made, and then I couldn’t get it back….it was on one of my posts….so I saw it, and thank you….but now it’s gone!!! that’s what I get for doing this when I first wake up! 🙂
So long as you received my message regarding the beauty of your writing and blog! All is well.
