Poetry
The Forsaken Season
© 2003 by Rosalind Morris
I came to You alone,
The first of all my kin.
No one else understood
You’d changed me from within.
I strove to enlighten them.
I sought to make them see
That I was a brand new creature
Because Your spirit lived in me.
But they only knew the me
That they had always known.
They mourned for the one I hated.
They yearned for a me long gone.
Never knowing what it was like
To be that other me.
Never discerning my secret laments,
Never realizing my private misery.
I came to You alone.
But oh how things have turned
You told me all that I forsake
For You, You would return.
You've added many to me,
Even saving some of my kin.
Instead of them bringing me out,
You've helped me to love them in.

You've captured the painful autobiography of every newly initiated Christian. Thank God for a happy ending!
