Lay Down Your Words

L et your thoughts travel to pen A fter all you’ve been through Y ield to your spirit, friend. D id you ever want to cry from the inside, O utward appearance tranquil, W ords spoken all for nought, N ever knowing why? Y ahweh may be behind that veil, O dds are He’s waiting for you to give in, U gly as you feel,….. ready yourself to write. R each into your spirit; lay down the words that come. W ords express at this time what you know not. O ften lessons are learned that we have not sought. R arely will your burden not be lightened, D oing that which you were gifted to do. S o to be at peace; .. lay down your words.
