The words wouldn’t come Silence filled the room Where there had been hope There was doubt, discord I couldn’t feel the grace Inspiring me to listen, to pray With a heart open to His Words, His star… guiding me Home, toward that home So far, that home of the heart Where the soul knows the difference In guilt that haunts and sweet forgiveness The feelings were so strong Shame that longed to hurt, to harm To fill my mind with distrust, to Whisper confusion into my dreams, Breathe disillusionment through This spirit God had surely blessed The only star for me, you see… Came on the night when He came Bringing His serenity from above The wonder of His everlasting love The only star for me – rose in the sky One night many years ago When God’s Son came down to earth Comforting the ones who hurt Reassuring the uncertain and insecure Lighting the way for the promise A birth that would give life meaning Hushing every reservation with One who gave souls a reason for believing The Only Star For Me Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Mystic Rose Rose November 6, 2022
