Days Like This..
When I open my eyes - I can’t see..
When I open my mouth – I can’t breathe ….
When I listen to my heart – it doesn't beat …
When I feed my soul – it hungers still ….
When I open my mouth – I can’t breathe ….
When I listen to my heart – it doesn't beat …
When I feed my soul – it hungers still ….
When I touch your photograph – I feel loss. ..
Lord.. There are some things you do… I disagree..
is it blasphemy?
how do I remain faithful when eye to eye I can’t see..
when...will I find my alignment to your will ..
Iost..
I know what you would advise ..
To believe .. to pray…

So, Lord ..
I come to you today
I just ..come to you -
I come to you today
I just ..come to you -
Asking for a reprieve ..
The life you’re taken makes me grieve…
Lord …
I am on my knees
I raise my eyes up …
there are no words …
I choke up
Lord ..
I rip my chest wide…
look inside..
knock down the door where anger…guilt.. aloneness.. reside..
I cower behind the mask…
I hide
I don’t want to feel anything…
but I realize it is the reason..
The life you’re taken makes me grieve…

but I realize it is the reason..
I pray to you…
For your mercy… for your kindness … for forgiveness ..for your understanding.. for your healing.. for your strength.. for allowing me work out my confusion
Through words that you relay within my heart..
I claim this gift you have bestowed …
Able to perceive the ruse… the lies..
That the Devil tells.. when he whispers..
“you can’t fix any of this”
It’s not surprising – his voice is shallow…
His words attempt to conquer me..
Yet, I am going somewhere that he can’t follow…
While life in this body.. keeps
– yearning.. turning .. charging on…
twisting my insides… its all so demanding..
I want to ask…
“what is it like.. safe within your arms..”
Adrienne ..knows..
I need to believe I will end up there.

I look up to the skies.. and see only clouds..
Where is the sun …where are the stars..
why can’t I see you there.. up high –
why do I deny? am I the only one?
Thoughts too deep … when I think.
“why Lord… why”
I can’t fathom your wisdom… I can’t decipher the reasons
I cry..
And some nights … when I can’t sleep..
chaos within runs.. deep
You still find your way in…
And your words seep… into a soul burning to receive.
“Lean not onto your own understanding..”
I get it.. “But in all things - acknowledge him..”
even if it does not add up..
And I can’t do the math…
I believe…
Lord… you’ll walk me through…
You said it..
it is written. . but it is more than a
script.. more than words upon a scroll..
these are words written in blood stains
given in love.. entrusted.. engrained ..
I will stop making this all about me..
“And you shall direct my path.”
I Believe...
I Believe.
