Lost (a poem)

Everyone has feelings of loneliness and such. But how to over come them? Through the light of Christ can we become found again. This is a poem I wrote about such feelings.

I have feelings of loneliness that I can't break

The chains are on me and darkness around me.

I have gotten myself in a bind

and don't know how to get out.

I feel lost and don't know what to do.

I am on my knees with streams of

tears that flow down my face.

I hear a dark sound of laughter

that echos through my head.

I feel as if I've lost the light.

I begin to stand with some flicker of Hope.

I stomp my feet wanting to be let out,

I feel a soft touch that I didn't notice before

A hand is reaching for me, I see it now.

I stretch forth with all my might.

I am blinded by the light but now

I know I haven't become part of the night.

I see a loving face with tear stained eyes

I want to know how my knight in so

much pain could save a wretched soul like mine.

He says, "My child I love you don't forget

what you're worth."

I'm on my knees kissing His feet,

I see the marks that He so willingly took

to save my wretched soul.

I look up to His smiling face,

my Savior, my friend.

I once was lost but now I am found.

You can always come back to the light and when you do Christ will have open arms to you. Do not despair Heaven is always near.
