Waiting For a Hallelujah
This lonely language of silence— An unending soliloquy in the mind’s dark forests Where pain and misery grew, and nobody knew Nobody ever hears the growth of agony or pain They can only see it when it has already begun to destroy us. The obscured gestures of the truth— The insidious signs if we look close enough to see Where the end...

Premium Member In My Afflictions
Beseeching for assured welfare ailing with discontentment stare cleaving to divine promises I treat as rare while earnestly wanting to share… My soul seeks God Who meets me with all His care! Gripped by angst of insecurity, sighing anxiously expressing complaints sorrowfully murmuring about unfairness grudgingly while questioning my state bitterly… My mind yields to God Who counsels me compassionately! Struggling against frustration succumbing...

Affliction borne for but a day and then you’re left with joy! Pregnancy discomforts, flu, perhaps a cold or two. Woes emotional I also had...

Premium Member Painful Afflictions
As darkness approaches, among corrupt horizons. To the angel in my nightmares- no longer can I survive, chained to such expectations. Let me live in peace, don't let this vessel sink. Show me mercy and, let this heart drown in a thousand petals, immersing in fragile fragrances. So this soul can flow, bathing in illuminating streams, cleansing these painful afflictions.

Claiming Fate, Dark Fate Gifts, His Sad Afflictions They forced him, build sandcastles on barren beaches They were his addictions, those beautiful leeches Saw his false shadows, like hell he resented it Ripped his true heart each damn time he presented it Fat with soul-wrecking love, they bleached his weary bones Nights he was weak, begging please, for their dark tones Each...
