Tears
I do what I can to pass the days
And find new ways to ease the pain,
But when it comes like a wave in the sea,
I slowly sink down on my knees
And pray a prayer to Him on high
Of love, of life, and why I cry.
An answer comes, so quiet and near,
An answer I don't wish to hear:
He says to wait with a humbled heart
And here I stand, back at the start.
But faith comes easy when you see
All that He is and has done for me.
So while I cry tears of pain
I cry in joy His holy name.
For blood has bought my wretched soul
And it is He who paid the toll.
Now freedom comes in heart and spirit
As the Ghost refreshes all that is near it.
So sink I now to cry in love
These tears I shed for His love above.

Ambrosia
The food of the gods touches my lips
My tongue dances at the taste.
What heavenly messenger has
Brought this down to me with such haste?
A mere mortal enjoying, nay, savoring
Things not meant for the likes of man!
And I partake of it daily, I endulge,
As it is only fit that I take what I can.
For tomorrow this sweet thing may be gone
Forever out of my reach it will flee
And tears will streak my face
And nothing will console me.
But woe is that sad, sad day
When torn from my lips it be,
And Ramen no longer comforts my gut
And surely I will die ever so slowly.
