I wrote this one several weeks ago after finding out about my Grandma being diagnosed with cancer.
Emotions so fragile,
So easy to shake,
A single sentence uttered,
And my heart begins to break,
As reality sets in,
This little bit of news,
Fear and desperation,
Turn my heart and mind askew,
Standing on the brink,
Of yet another death,
Another loved one lost,
Breathing their last breath,
I cannot bear to face it,
That such reality is near,
I cry out to God in heaven,
"Have I not shed too many tears?"
My heart and soul are aching,
My very body shaking,
In dread and fear of what is soon to come,
How much can my heart take,
Before it shatters, before it breaks,
From this painful foe from which I cannot run?
Oh Lord, I cry out, Save me!
Don't let me fall into despair!
Become my steadfast fortress,
Relieve this load that I now bear.
Random verse....
Sometimes no matter how hard we try,
We fail and we don't know why,
But trust in God for reasons unseen,
And open the door to dream a new dream.
More to come later but I'm too distracted by jamming on my guitar to copy more right now. =)
