At the Comfort of Her Homne

At the comfort of her home she finds peace Away from all the voices she finds just petrifying to her ears… Oh how disquieting they have become…. Silently….she screams out for help for the voices to go away Quietly crying out for help…..she is tormented, suffering “shut up”….that’s all she can say but to no avail These uninterrupted voices she hears……..of selfish needs, temporary! Temporary and to some extend imaginings that may never come to be…..if at all to be Judged by the world……so isolation is better than inane conversations….. No…..it’s not self centeredness…..nor selfishness No….it’s not madness nor Schizophrenia……. She is just different. He on the other hand is hurting Eyes so evidently filled with tears He is tormented by that which is beyond his ability With eyes yet again filled with questions he looks up to the heavens, ‘Why God”? And with a trembling voice, shouts…..”What have we done?” See…. this is the cry of the helpless……..Who only trust in God to answer So her heart breaks at His grief……. She is touched by such things and her heart …………her heart yearns for something new Something greater…….oblivious to the prevailing situation lies hope The vain voices seem to dissipate………slowly fading away into nothingness The solitude she has engulfed herself in……..gradually suffocating her Grasping for breath she sways uncontrollably Grasping for light she moves back and forth……..back and forth she is lost in darkness Grasping for peace……….her heart slowly sinks into sadness Then…how does she lead him in finding hope…….finding peace Yet….She seeks freedom from her own self? Seeking guidance into truth………her destiny must be defined Her destiny……. is defined. At the comfort of her home she finds peace……….? Is it peace she defines or is it just a safe abode created by……..her? It is a secluded place that binds her……… prison…….. She has imprisoned herself in her own thoughts That inner voice crying out for help……..”Abba Father………safe me” Safe her from herself………… For that place she calls home is not peaceful………Save her!
