Best Overcome Poems

When you find yourself alone in the shadows
Void of peace and tricked by deceit,
Know that light flushes out the dark
And there's a light deep within your heart

If you find yourself in a crowd blind of clear sights,
Remove yourself from their company, and find some light

Some mistakes are
Not so easy to erase
Some linger
And haunt you
No matter what you’ve done
No matter what you do
As you try to forget
As you try to make amends
Sometimes forgiveness
Never seems to come
Sometimes you’re so much
Harsher on yourself

A loving husband, a great man of God,
Few people would dare to walk the path he trod;

Came to spread the Good news of the Bible,
Left his own country to live among tribals;

Came to serve the poor with a great vision,
A friend of lepers, he did...

Life’s struggles are here to overcome
All the damage that was done.
Adversity, tragedy, blow or raw deal-
Shall not dispute all that is real.
Though just like ancestors whom came before us
Survival must be first and foremost.
Be brave and fight for life go-getter
For life’s struggles are here to...

OVERCOME

I’m a tiny human flicker
In whirling winds, losing light quicker
My flame glows glum, think I’m really done.
Overcome…

I’m a frail glade blossom, that in free air moves
Unexpected thundering mammals stomp with plundering hooves
I’m in the dirt, in a breathless stun.
Overcome…

I’m dropped in a boundless ocean
A collective...

Jesus speaks as the prince of peace
for as the only one with true authority
sent by His Father in heaven above
full of blessings and eternal love

The world's peace doesn't satisfy
it leaves a void real deep within
no matter how one depends on it
so lacking just leaves you...

I was once crushed with plastic kindness on the brink of murder,
I knew it all along and watched you play the game real confidently
I saw the damage you thought you were doing to me,
As I listened to the sobbing and screaming of your rotting heart

Manipulative...

purified in the flame
cleansed in the rain
finding beauty in the pain

accepting the distain
of all that became
there's sincerity in shame

dim's the only pressing view
fog covers through and through
empty in the reach for you

breathing in a quaint defeat
the scent of hope's subtle retreat
familiar gloom sets on both...

This poem belongs to all the children who will never know the joy
of running on a beach and getting sand between their toes. Told
from the perspective of a 12-year-old boy, wheelchair-bound.

I know a place where the stars kiss the sea;
and fish sing all night in...

I am living steady
I am moving steady
In unsteady times
Keeping my balance and smiles

Though the world is unsteady
Keep moving and ready
To meet God in His kingdom
And live forever in freedom

Glorify God in good and bad times
So that you can overcome at all times
Cause the devil goes...

A tree after the fall or in winter,
Is not what it was, but a mere splinter. 
Glory stripped naked of it’s cov’ring leaves. 
Looks like death and loss, the naive perceives. 

Like veins without body, there’s no value. 
It’s fate altered by some unplanned snafu....

Tears stream like water, rain in the night
A heart that still hungers for all to be right
Stoned by a circle, mocked while on stage
Emotions grow heavy from pain into rage
Scabs that were healing I picked them apart
All to uncover, I had to restart.

Purity, The essence...
