The Longing Heart!

There is a place inside my soul, where I do not feel alone…a place I have not known, a place where love is bold!

A place where I can rest and breath and let the tears flow, a place where I can let it all go!

Hunger and thirst drive my longing heart…  Chasing every dream, the place where I depart!

Always longing for what I cannot reach… showered in hope, broken in time, a prayer to deep… for me to speak!

Misplaced love invites me in to feed a temporal need…  But with every good intention, my soul is left to bleed!

Song of regret strum along the scars on my heart… a tune to sing alone with shadows in the dark!  Fading satisfactions and memories gone by… illusions reveal a vacant heart!

The cry of every longing heart, to finally feel complete…  Missing pieces unknown, searching everyone we meet!

Darkness begets darkness, with drinks that make me thirst…  Wandering about, as existential sharks, my best reveals my worst!

Desires unknown pull me deeper… familiar shores begin to fade…  Living water softens my heart and I am no longer afraid

Beginning to see what I could never imagine, as my faith becomes my eyes!  As time expires, joy made full… not by touch or prize… it is the eyes of my heart that now reveal an eternal truth… that life does not begin until I die!
