Oh, Sometimes

Oh! sometimes, how it feels so heavy inside When words can scarcely express When laying back on a recliner would barely do When looking out the window Won't do When singing a loved song won't do When taking a walk won't do when listening to music won't do Oh! Sometimes, when it seems so grey out there How reading a book can't help When people can't come to rescue When everything seems all screwed up When life's story seems all jumbled up Then will I run to you To take refuge and anchor in your peaceful arms Though I know those arms are always open Still sometimes, it feels they are interlocked from me Oh! sometimes, how it gets so hot around here When the heat and pressure of life comes too strong When it feels like I'm all scotched and hung Steaming hot with sweat and tear drop dripping long As though everything put together has gone wrong on my ground I'll remain and proclaim "to you I belong" Then will I run to your shadow for shade Oh! those times, I feel so hungry and thirsty for you But never get sufficient filling as desired Rather left with deeper want and yearning for you I could only hold-still and keep on trusting you Inspite all these, I know you are very near Though I can't see you with my eyes I hear your fine voice saying to me... I'm with you I hide only for you to get more desperate... In all I've learnt not to trail you using my senses But through faith follow you closely by heart...
