Ahhhhhhhhhh!

Have you ever had to stop and scream, release to air vile debris?

Have you stopped amongst a gathered crowd, grabbed your head and howled loud?

Have you ever felt a pain, deep in the inner vein, relentless, unrelenting, driving you insane?

Have you ever just felt lost, forgotten without cost, a log free floating on the river, shattered against the rocks and tossed

I have felt deeply that way…
Gave up on hope and love, I ran away..
Scared and cowering in the rain…
Curled in the fetal, telling myself I’m brave…

But the Dark can break you can’t it, it’s sledge hammer can crush bone
It’s scars of black sticky tar, consume what’s left of hallowed soul

And in the QUICKSAND of black you struggle, pictures in your mind of life
Gasping, fighting for every breath, you give in to the Christ… hand reaching towards the light

And suddenly the QUICKSAND thickens and you can stride upon its shore
The tar no longer sticky, the current drives you to the shore

A fog still all about you, so much happening, so quick
One moment I’m on solid ground, the next I’m in the Darkness thick…

But that’s mortal life? Isn’t it?…
Embrace the Light, Avoid the thick…
For it does take effort to achieve it…
If it took nothing, what would nothing get?
What would be the worth in it…
It is the Trails that prove your reverent !!!!

Has your eye ever gazed at the sky, casting a prism from your tears
I promise you One day it will, if you lay down your Earthly fears

Have you ever looked to Heaven, Looked to God, and Looked to Christ????
Have you ever SCREAMED “AGGGG! I LOVE YOU LORD !” In the middle of the night?

I HAVE…
YOU SHOULD TRY IT,
I PROMISE YOU IT IS QUITE GRAND!

I was, well, I’ve always said it, a HEATHEN straight up and celebrated! I lied, stole, spat and laughed in the name of Christ, He was a joke to me, a myth, and all these stupid people were running around praising this “Jesus”, pathetic and laughable, (I thought). …… AND NOW … Needless to say I’m still attending the same Church to this day. My poetry has swung dramatically from dark, desolate, and evil, to almost completely God based, with better messages of faith, hope, and love. I was baptized in the name of Jesus Christ on April 29th 2018. In the future, I intend to walk with Christ, constantly striving to be the best man I can to His pride. I vow to love the world and all in it and to treat it as such . . . with love. Most of all, I look forward to continuing to learn and bond with the Scriptures, God, Christ, and The Holy Spirit, and share what I discover in hopes of helping another such as myself to find Grace in Jesus Christ. AMEN. [from the Personal Testimony in “Inspired By …”]
