Poem Artwork

As I embrace
My fall from grace
The roots of Heaven rumble
I stumble
And fall into Darkness
The heights seems so far away
And yet I remember the day
When the World seemed so bright
When my future was light
And the Dawn of tomorrow
Was a Beginning anew
A life with you
And now
There is Nothingness
Surrounding me
The eternal Abyss
No longer free
I struggle with Chains of Hate
Cry out
But it’s much too late
My doubts
Surround me on all sides
This Spiritual Drought
Confounds me day and night
My prayers reveal layers
Of pride and scorn
Soothsayers predict doom
And deep abiding gloom
No path is clear
All I see is fear
Everything I hold dear
Fell away with my last tear
And now I lie in a Bed of Thorns
My heart forlorn
My soul torn
In fetal position I lie
But only dust falls from my
Eyes
Only lust propels my sighs
As Love dies

Mark, I have to agree with Floria on this one, as scripture (in description of God's grace) tell us to seek him while He may be found, but it we leave him entirely, he will leave us as well. This is what makes us feel the weight of the "doom" in our lives. The fact that we have tried to "go it alone," and failed. As the common expression goes "we are only human."
I pray for a restoration of strength to you.
This, I believe, is the most powerful poem I have read of yours.

My gosh Mark this is so profound...
and sad...I am saddened by it....
as we approach holy week....I really
felt concerned reading this...just
remember....God never lets go of our
hand...It is "us" who let go of His..
really powerful writing that moved me..

Mark this is a splendid lament that grips the
heart and soul fills my spirit with distress
that you may be in this condition, if it isn't
just great poetry. Remember Isaiah 41:10...hold on to it!
