Author's note: This poem was published as part of my third novel, Dark Tyrant's Ascension.
Through The Storm
Confusion
Pain
In my heart
In my mind
Circumstances
Ever-changing
They tear at me
To pull me apart
Cold, alone
Amidst tempest turning
Blinded by circumstances
Swallowed by doubt
I look
I reach
Through waters churning
Churning on this sea of life
Jesus
The Christ
My heart pleading
In desperate reaching
Suddenly
Powerfully
Peace falling
Hope descending
Against all reason
Against all logic
A wave of love and strength
Peace invades my soul
Abba Father
Thank you Jesus
Your Holy Spirit fills me
Through storm unchanged, yet quelled
Brand new power
Not my own
But from my Father
For life's storms
