Tired

[Nikki❤️ 163]

 

 

I’m Tired of uncomfortable feelings that never cease

 

Unending and tormenting, will I ever have peace

 

Death seems inviting at this phase

 

Somewhere I can run another place to hide my face

 

I know there’s a spark somewhere, a hope just beyond the horizon

 

Knowledge that the sun will surely rise again

 

And that I’m not lost without ascertain

 

I know the darkness doesn’t last forever

 

Regardless of the repetitive and intruding thoughts of the one to dissever

 

My life is in the hands of the Holy One forever and ever

You're poems always portray such realistic emotion!

 

John 10:27-30

27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:

28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.

30 I and my Father are one.

i agree. So many shy away from their emotions or somehow think their emotions make them weak or wrong. But my favorite verse that I originally memorized as a joke, but has become a cornerstone verse for me, is "Jesus wept." Emotions were not a part of the fall of man, which leads me to believe that although our emotions are imperfect due to our fallen nature, emotions themselves are a Divine attribute, that should be embraced in balance. I love how you balance true emotions with biblical truth and faith. It's honest and very relatable.
