Lifted Poem

Lifted

 

Drowning in the sands of  our sorrow

we patiently wait for a better tomorrow.

As we try desperately to dig our way out

the weight is too strong, we can't even shout

 

Trying to survive, our hands we hold high

longing to feel air, a touch from the sky.

A flash of our lives, graces our sight

reminding us why, we can't give up our fight.

 

As we start to feel the pressure subside

our heart and emotions suddenly collide

the sand that held us is starting to strain

We wonder how long, the pain will remain

 

Raising up from the ground, we start to feel free

all the dirt falls off, reveling me

I begin to know, that i have been washed clean

and my life as i know it, has yet to be seen.

 

 

 

Just One Call (poem)

Just One Call

If heaven would allow just one call to someone we hold dear

I would call my Mom and cry out loud " I wish that you were here!!

I miss the way you would make me laugh, as you did your silly dance

and the way you would scold my crazy talk, with just a  solid glance"

If just one call was all we had, there would be so much i would say

"I can not wait to walk heaven's streets beside you everyday.

Does Jesus give you a hug from me? I pray that every night,

I want Him to wrap His arms around you, and hold you oh so tight!!"

If our call would last a while, there are things i want to know,

"when I see .. a butterfly, does God let my smile show?

Can you feel the love I have when I see you in my dreams?

Does He let you hold me .. secretly .. when my pain turns to screams?"

Just one call, is not enough, I would never want to  leave

but to hear your voice is all I ask to help me while i grieve.

God's plan is so much more then I can understand

but every moment of my life, we'll be walking hand in hand.
