Poetry
Fix me, Lord!
I know that You can.
I am broken from within.
It seems as though sometimes You are so distant from me.
You have to know that I am trying.
Knowing loneliness and sadness for so many years is unbearable.
Having sinned is unbearable.
Token platitudes from others seem meaningless.
Outside influences and not knowing who to trust
Constantly keep me in a state of confusion.
Surely my destination is not to be so dismal?
If so, then why was I created?
Was it to be a perpetual slave so that others would advance and
Continually rule over me?
I refuse to believe that You could allow this.
Give me the strength to overcome.
Friends have long-since turned their backs on me.
Family has long-since turned their backs on me.
You gave me a wife and the boy and I am very thankful for that.
But why, oh why, when I make progress am I now threatened
With the loss of my job, increased debt, having to sell the house,
Not being able to support those that I love?
Material things mean nothing, but even I would love
To see and learn about my history.
Even I would love to explore and grow.
I perceive lies and deception all around me,
And I have been a participant in such.
But I no longer wish to and the pain is too much!
Fix me, Lord!
