~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the hospital, the room so still
A feeling of melancholy, my heart will feel
the music of a story, told by the nurse
who hears the whisper, a quiet curse
warm tears bleed across the pages
magazine leaves, in the early stages
coloring the twilight in yesterday’s prayers
the diagnosis, distant as a dream, repairs
colored in grace, the stories, the pages
silent flow of praise, erasing the night
the burden of sorrows, worried
by the way the sadness overtakes
pain upon pain, the mysterious – insane
how the pages turn, a gentle maze
whispering through the decades
hospital stay, while the burdens are gray
they are flavored with shame, overcome
by the flames of a sentence – decayed
omnipotent, His grace floods the soul
leaves a print of His amazing, through faith
we can overcome these darker days
find the way through the pain, heal and remain
a part of heartfelt faith, this faith…
hospital haze, melting through the windows
of pain – erasing the stillness on display
God, He will surely find a way – to make me say
even this day has been worthwhile
and I still praise as He remains the very best thing,
the only way that I can say – life is compiled of
echoes of faith, a tender chance to finally say
He is truly my everything!
No matter how my heart might break,
I know the One who will never forsake
And because of His love, His kindness,
I’ll praise… Praise Him always, a song
that stays on my lips, forever His –
blessed by the love that came from above
the love that assures me, with Him –
I have hope, I have faith, I have love that never fades
with Him, I never doubt – love is living,
always giving – a heart who is surely healing!
