In Desperation and Defeat
If I had words to console you, I would speak them.
But there aren't, and we both know that.
A suffering soul left to wander in search of love,
A desperate friend lost for words and bleeding inside.
To feel your hurt, to ease the burning,
To sieze the pain tearing your heart asunder.
Please believe and know that all will ease,
Please trust in God and look upon His face.
You despise the path ahead because of the unknown.
You don't realize the sun awaits you there.
Let go and you'll see the poison melt away.
Let go and you'll live the life you should live.
Living in desperation and defeat will only kill you.
Living in light and perserverence will lift you.
I am sorry I could not offer you more.

Truth
As I now know it, I see;
In the past it was hidden.
Revelation through perserverence,
Coming only after struggles.
Questions then arise:
How can Truth be found?
How can Truth exist?
Why me? Why me? Why me?
To be unveiled is bliss.
To look behind is torture.
The past is haunting,
If I let it be so.
Forgiveness is powerful,
If I truly receive it.
Nothing is hidden now:
The blinders are removed.
The Book of Life is open
And His arms welcome me in.
Truth is hard to hold,
But I bear this burden gladly.
I stumble, I fail,
But I am always lifted.
This Truth is light,
Lighter than my blindness.
His help is graceful
And totally underserved.
The Way, the Truth, and the Life.
No other will get me there.
