These Falling Tears

Unexplainable pain swells in my eyes, tears go unnoticed running down my face, pooling together into a tide of emotions. Unleashed anger threatens to break out in a mad rush to explode, but my steady stream of tears distinguishes it's only flame. Standing in this ocean of misery it's like I will drown, but O' the Truth triumphs strong and True; leaving no room for doubt. Often, I am quite blind and I can hardly see. Then, in my sight, I see only You as You shine within me. Tears that go undiscovered may be hid from mans view, but are noticed every one by You. I can't give up, no matter the trials I face. I can't, turn away, no matter the pain I know. Enduring unto, the near end, I am Fading more and more each day knowing that You are all of me. My heart cannot break in two when Your the whole of it. Though haunted by pain and anger, I'm embraced in You, ' Precious One' , where I'll forever rest. Just what love can I compare? Take over me, be more in me and make me more of You. Turn from me my desires, cleanse me and purify me, so I will be no more. Just to cease to be, is all the desire I desire in me. I see so dimly through these falling tears, but the brightest star still shines and no tear can ever dim it's light. This terrain is rough and mountains are sure to come, but I'm climbing with Your grace... These falling tears shall cease, and I shall cease! (c) October 30, 2007 Rosemarie Schrock
