Day: June 2, 2020

I make my path
Not alone although
It may seem that way
Detoured, I may despair
Not knowing that it is good
And the mountain disappears
I am on my way again
To do what, I wonder
Without a plan, I can
Only react to condition
Foolishness is inevitable
Consequences unpredictable
Voices cause confusion
I feel dispirited
Vagary is overwhelming
Confinement of thoughts
No clarity exists
Stagnation prevails
My heart is heavy
Weighed down by events
Pain and hurt
Anger and fear
Hang in the air
Disquiet my senses
Turmoil, chaos, and destruction
Unimaginable loses
Including life and lives
My heart is troubled
Aggression for aggression sake
Government aiding and abetting
Their involvement lacking
Peaceful protest abandoned
God’s Word forgotten
Heal my heart, Creator
Open my eyes to goodness
Let me love and think
Let me help someone feel safe
Keep me aware of evil
Give me strength to avoid it
Make my path your path
Replace my fear with proactivity
I have never known peace
Because misery always exists
If one is hurting
I am hurting
Charge me with Your Grace
So my heart will not close
I am at my lowest
Please, I pray
Help me rise
