The Conversation-- another poem from the soul/heart

“The Conversation”

 

I feel my chest tighten

I cannot see,  and

as I begin to panic

A small still voice says unto me

 

Peace my child, be still

I know this voice from

From a long time ago

It is God who I

 

had at some point let go

God do you still love me

Do you even care

He said Yes my child

 

I’ve always been there

Well where are you now

In my time of need

I cry out in desperation

 

As my heart it bleeds

By your side then

And carrying you now

Even through your choice

 

To be the prodigal child

Then why is it that

You did what you did

And once you had done

 

It ,yourself you hid

You took her Lord you

Took her away,

You didn’t give me

 

One more second

Hour, nor day

You are punishing

Me. This I do see

 

But why take her from

her entire family

First of all, she was

Mine all along and

 

I told my daughter

It was time to come

Home . To punish you is

Not the goal. This was

 

Her part in saving

Your soul.  I wanted

To bring together

Broken bridges and

 

Pull you all in and

If you do right you

Will see her again

I love you my child

 

I love you I do

And if I did not

Why waste time creating

You.  There is always

 

A reason for all

That I do, and trust

Me, it only means

Good for you. I know

 

You are afraid and

That you cannot see

The entire picture

Of what is to be

 

And as for my daughter

She’s here safe with me

So let not your heart

Harden and your soul

 

Be worry free for

Every little

Pain, trust,  I do see

And this pain it will

 

Pass believe you in me

And when you feel

You are too tired

To go on remember

 

I am the Lord that

Keeps you strong

    Very nice,

    Haven't we all questioned God in our time of need? I like that your poem is so relatable. Most anyone could say oh yeah I been there...

    I believe that is an element to making successful poems!

    Nice work!!! Thanks for sharing it!

    That was heartwarming. I question the Lord often. Sometimes I get so mad at him I don't even pray at night before I go to bed. Can you please pray for me as I hopefully start my first year of college in 2 weeks. I say "hopefully" because I haven't paid my tuition yet. I'm still collecting money for it. Thank you for commenting on my page.
