Free to Fly

Trapped inside the walls of my mind,
Trying to get out.
But I keep building more brick walls
Of solid fear and doubt.

Looking for one patch of light,
But every time I find
A glimpse of hope, the walls close in.
My trust is left behind.


Every tear drop drowns a smile.
The rain describes my heart.
The clouds of fear surround my soul,
It's tearing me apart.


I cannot get myself out
I'm stuck inside of me.
Will someone help me to escape?
Does someone hear my plea?


As I fall upon my knees
And wait for a reply
I feel a warmth so sweet, so bright,
So strong, and so nearby.


I couldn't get out on my own
But as the time went by
Someone in heaven raised me up,
And freed my soul to fly.

The Night Before The Lord's Return

Here's one for the Easter season. :)

Water droplets scatter 
In the whistling wind.
Trees moan and leaves
Reach for their loss.

Cloudy light glimmers on
Sprinkled spider webs.
Emptiness in
The moonlight's gleam.

Absent glory and truth.
The breeze chills the bone.
Some vital part 
Of life is gone.

The elements yearning
For natures missing peace
Pleading for hope
To fulfill grace.

The crispy mist full air
And wet trembling grass
Waiting, for the
Tomb is empty.
