Our Journey

I'm these deep waters, I feel shallow.
Within hand's grasp, but without heart's Halo.
Then came the lightning, shine, warmth and Ray.
Yet, why do I feel siren's tear ready to lead me astray.

I gain pain, feign drain, hail rain.
All to perish, to cherish, to uphold and refrain.
I question myself, "Why all this trouble? 
Why so much strain?"
Only to answer, What wouldn't I do for YOU?!
FOR ME. FOR US.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
