Recieving Fortification -Part 5-

Keeping the limited time in mind,
I’ve lost grip of the rope of hope almost…
But I’m seriously frustrated – 
Why did you leave my side? Who can mend this rip
In my heart, once fabricated by affection?

Open wide your ears, 
So I can whisper forgiveness that I’ve hidden for years
There’s no use in running away…
No use in waiting another day…
There’s a great purpose for you and I to shine
To brighten up the night…
The brokenhearted strangers…the distraught orphans 
The bad conditions of this world frighten me! 
I need to become more like His child
His joyous sheep!
This harmful behavior…
I-I must be strong
And put an end to it…before the roots get too deep
I know it’s dangerous and wrong! It's too much pressure to reap!

So, what am I supposed to do when I feel down? Are you even there to erase my frown?
Anyways, I wish you good in all you do I wish you good health and luck too But, I’m alive and I’m in a restful state Fighting the feelings of hate What is there to do? Wait for an answer that will never come? What is there to say? Do I pray for God’s soon-to-be Kingdom? I got to explore deeper so I can find The one I truly love…God knows I’ve tried I got to seek change before my time’s up – tell me if I’m falling behind I’m feeling numb at the wrong time…my high hopes has died Should I shout for your attention? Or would that be too much of an intrusion? Whatever fits the occasion… Don’t laugh at me… I’ve married anticipation! You’re a beloved guest to the wedding! We’ve got together with God’s fortification…

Lovely ending to this journey. You carried me along nicely. I see faith here in the picture. We all have questions. We all struggle. At times it seems no one is listening....but your poetry speaks loud and clear. I heard. God hears. Keep writing! :)
