A Tribute To My Saviour

He loves me utterly and
Embraces me unconditionally.
His tender touch flushes away 
All my pains and fears and insecurities.
His smile enlightens the universe within me,
And picks my broken heart from that sad sea
That no one ever longs, we all want to flee.
His Spirit has an amazingly fresh scent,
That diffuses in my soul and makes 
Breathing come with a lot of ease.
His eyes are filled with love
That’s oh so great and divine,
And fulfils my deepest longing of
Living a life of definite contentment.
In me he lets hope flow by creating an enjambment
In those life phases that I encounter,
And feel as though living is just blunter.

I look at my dictionary, its great a composition,
Someone inconsiderate can even tear a page,
And I, never even note it’s actually no longer there.
Only on a day of great need 
Shall it be that I would have such great resentment!
But then who will I blame?
Ones around us can hurt us sometimes.
People's capabilities I never under look.
Those triggered shots they can fire at us,
Calibrated from rifles and many other guns,
Loaded with bullets that have been coated
With unfair judgement and painful exclusion.
It is even better to have grandeur delusions,
Than to feel like your existence does not exist.
That’s a heavy feeling, and it’s that hard to resist!

My King' words however depart not
From my mind and heart's pages.
Even in powerful life storm surges,
They’re always were my real hope emerges.
I thank Jesus for being my refuge,
In him I know I’m always rescued.
I mean when the tempests of life arise,
My eyes remain glued to the skies,
And my soul anticipates for that noble price, 
To see my saviour wholly one day.
After everything has come to pass,
I know all these unnecessary life fuss
Will be no more, I will have that rest,
If with faith I take all now without protest.
