The Model
Everyday is a different day, a different routine,
Just another day to be uniquely me.
Some nights I am scared to sleep,
Others it envelopes me before I am snuggled between the sheets.
Some days I feel as if I can't eat a bite,
Others I devour every edible thing that enters my sight.
Some days are dark as night,
On some I could blind someone with my inner light.
Sometimes I shiver and shake,
My body becomes as unstable as tectonic plates.
I have days of sadness that engulf my soul,
Days where I feel as if nothing can keep me from reaching my goals.
I have days where loneliness breaks my heart and floods my cheeks with tears,
Days when I feel I have met the one I will love for the rest of my years.
I have moments when anger steals my very breath,
Moments where fear creeps up on me quicker than death.
Everyday there seems to be things I do not need,
Moods and interests that seem to wane with unimaginable speed.
But there is something I need every single minute of the day,
A need I never want to cease, fade or slip away.
Everyday I need my God,
I need His comfort, His staff and His rod.
I need His hand,
Guiding and protecting me, lifting me when I can no longer stand.
I need His peace, I need His strength and grace,
I need His presence when Lucifer shows his face.
I need Him every day,
And in every way.
Everyday is a different day to refine one routine,
Another day for My Creator to mold me!
