Sometimes, the longing for her overwhelms me, and no one else knows this silent pain
Sometimes, the longing for her overwhelms me, and no one else knows this silent pain,
Most people think my pain is just poetry, just words, images from my wandering mind,

The Day Overwhelms Me
The day overwhelms me
I stand naked before the Creator
My sins and stains exposed
on this, the Day of Atonement
How can one atone for all the iniquities

The day overwhelms me

When Passion Overwhelms
When Passion overwhelms
Passion my weakness that tends to overpower,
as if I am living only to nurture love and hover?
Logical thoughts beating and buzzing in head,

yearnings sizzling hot that refuse a tranquil.
Tears from starry eyes slip like quicksilver,
life nearing end, gloom

Your Goodness Overwhelms Me
you're goodness overwhelms me
I an scarily take it in
you broke my chains and freed me from sin
you showed me love and compassion
and pulled me out the deep dark pit
and in my life your light you lit
you made my darkens bright
and stood by me both day and night
you still loved me when I did things
