Where I Cannot Reach


Where I Cannot Reach
You are;Where I cannot reach.
Loneliness surrounds me
And I long for your comfort
Yet I am left  wanting.
You stay;
Where I cannot be.
I search in vain
For a secret door
But find  only blank walls.
You go;
Where I cannot follow.
I run I in blind pursuit
Desceptively believing
That I'll find your footprints.
You are the hidden part of me.

On My Mind


At the forefront of the mindAnd still so far away,
These words of mine linger 
As I struggle for something to say.
Some might call me unsocial,
A closed or unfriendly type,
But what they cannot see
Is how I fear being me.
I learn what's acceptable,
By what they don't say;
I see a two way life
Marked for my future.
I cannot live with this heaviness
Of all I see and hear
Welled up inside my soul
Ready to burst from its shell.
I maybe be viewed as moody
Or socially ostracized,
But I will say these words
For I cannot stuff them in another crag
As if to merely hide.

Hessed


With the changing winds and coming tides,
All I long for is reliance.
To know that even in the storm, 
Even through the maelstrom,
You never change;
Your love for me remains the same.
Hessed.
Your quiet whisper hovers
Over the raging waters.
Hessed.
I am the faithful, reliant One;
I never change, my child
You are the one I hessed.
