You Are My God...

When my heart is lonely,
And fear beseeches me,
Then ‘protector’ is the synonym for you...
Then only do I discover
That you are there with me...

When my soul is crying,
Over heart clenching tragedies,
Then you are the only consoler I seek...
Then only do I remember,
That you are there with me...

When my mind is tired
Of running day in and day out,
Then you act as an elixir of life...
Then only am I satisfied,
That you are there with me...

When I feel earth-bound,
Then you are the brain to tell me,
That flight is yet to be discovered,
Then only do I feel determined 
that you are there with me...

When I feel like a bud,
Ready to blossom,
like a new born star
Ready to shine,
Then you are the one to remind me 
that there is room for more...
Then again, do I realise 
that you are there with me...

When my heart is elated,
Of having achieved everything
from dreams to fantasies,
Then you are the one to tell me to lie low,
That a bird also needs, 
some earthboundedness
Then only do I feel re-assured 
that you are there with me...

And when failure revisits,
You are the one to tell me 
that brightness dawns 
only after the dark of the night, 
Only then do I feel, 
re-enclosed in your warmth,
that you there with me...

And then one day,
I aspire to regain everything,
And make you proud,
That you were my creator,
Then do I see
your hands held up,
To shower blessings on me...
Then only do I feel 
That you are there to bless me...

You are my GOD...

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.

It was nice, but went like too long on telling the needs you felt ..finishing also wasn't so great. You have the potential to improve this. Overall, it was a good work. Check on my poems, awaiting your comments
