Poetry

---

I found myself wandering
Though a darkened dome;
I knew I was seeking
A place to call home.
Light shifted past my face
But never touched my skin.
My heart was like an open tomb:
Empty, cold, in sin.
Many times I cried to God
To take me from this day,
But never did he send His love
To steal my soul away.
Fear, anger, and rejection
Throbbed through my veins,
And as I hung my head in silence
My tears released my pains.
My eyes were not upon His glory,
Nor my heart upon His soul,
And soon the devil made me think
Of only one way to go.
And just before it got too late,
They floated from above
To help me overcome all evil
And spread the joy of love.
For He never let me go.
No, He never let me stray.
He has loved me forever
And forever more will stay.
I raise my life up to Him,
And He leads me by my heart.
I am no longer afraid,
For we'll never be apart.
And I know -
Yes, I know -
That He has angels
Watching over me.
