Repentance
Gasping for breath,beating
heart every last thread seems
torn apart consumed by mistakes,
over problems that exist
feeling the tears being hard
to resist after a prayer
words deep in grace going
to sleep with a tear stained
face waking up looking
around taking a breath,
yet making no sound
not an ounce of sadness
lef to endure God removing
the pain from you and it
feel so good thank you
Lord for your bless.
And thank you for John.
I love him very much.
