My Release

Right now I need my guiding light
My feet have traveled a path unbeknownst to me
And even there trouble seems to keep following me
I cannot be freed
So today My Lord I get down on bended knee
I’ll pray and wait on the warmth of your touch
The one that has kept me through many nights
Has even woke me making sure I knew it was you
So right now I’ll say thank you
Thank you for forgiving me of all my sins
Some I’m sure I will waddle back in
Not purposely
But because I am of a foolish flesh
But one who realizes she is blessed
I harbor a war between good and evil in my inner being
I sit and wait for evil to throw in the towel
But it won’t let up
My mind is sometimes unstable
And I struggle to find my calm, my center and my peace
So I pick up this pen and release
Dispose of all pathogens in my inner being
Love it dearly when the muse is totally leading
Because the words flow like a wanted cool breeze
Totally whipping through me
Helping me to breathe
Relaxing my mind
Knowing you will come to my rescue in your own time
Because it’s your time that counts, not mine
I love you Lord because you keep on blessing me
I love you Lord because I know you will never leave me
I love you Lord because I know you love me
I love you Lord because you died for me
And when I thought it was my time to die…you spared me!
