Message To God

Message To God by Owami Hlongwane Father, for i have found hope. Hope that someday I will be fine. I have found love, love that I hope someday will grow to be enough, Enough for me to get myself back up again. I've been searching, searching for something that i dont even know, blamed myself for not getting what I'm searching for without realizing I too, i dont know what I'm looking for. I have been stranded Lost in the dark, searching for a way out Felt as if my soul was slowly leaving my body, Felt like I'm being thrown in a never ending abyss, Days started to be short, nights started to be longer, I could hear my mind when I'm thinking I could feel the heartache deeper than anything I could feel how lonely I am even when I'm surrounded by people Lord, you know what I've been feeling. Today i went for a new search, though I didn't know what I was searching for But I found a better path I gave myself another chance, a chance to start over, A chance to do better this time For I have messed up the previous one, Today I felt something in my chest, A feeling that cannot be compared to the rest My soul have been set free The chains have been loosen up I'm now at peace I'm now making peace, peace with the fact that we all make mistakes and we learn from them For I have learnt from this one For I will not mess this one As I have learnt a lesson For I have felt the pain, the coldness and the loneliness I have found hope, hope that someday I will be fine.
