Poetry
Could It Be
Dejected she sat on the steps
Hands folded under her chin
Unsure of whether to stay out
Or to get up and go back in
Could it be that her indecision
Really had nothing to do
With her outer surroundings
That something else was trying to get through
She felt restless, moody
And could not understand why
Her throat constricted and tightened
For no reason, she wanted to cry
Could it be that the Holy Spirit
Was speaking to her soul
Bringing conviction upon her heart
Gently making His presence known
She had everything she wanted
Achieved more in her lifetime than so many
Yet here she sat so miserable
Something was amiss in her life of plenty
Could it be that she needed Yahweh
And the peace that only He can bring
That although she thought she had it all
In reality she actually had nothing
She was successful, adored
Popular and well known
But even when surrounded by people
She felt so very alone
Could it be that the love she was seeking
Yet, could not seem to find
Was a relationship with the Father,
And had nothing to do with mankind?
