Eisha Shahzad Poet Rhyme

Plague

God, cure me of this disease, 
A ever-lasting disease, 
A disease of the heart, 
A disease of the mind, 
In which love-sick fools seem to linger, 

I have looked far and wide, 
For its end to come by, 
God, how I wish this was a lie, 
But now I'm amongst the infected, 
Blindly, being by his side

God, forgive my sin, 
The peace I once found in you
Has been conquered by him

Beata Agustin December 5, 2025 at 5:32 AM 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.

Warmest wishes.. ~Susan Eisha Shahzad May 7, 2024 at 11:46 PM Thank you, I'm still trying my best to develop my skills as I'm still new but wanted to simply express my emotions
