The little voices
Told a young girl...
Scorched is the land 'neath where my feet lie,
where rain burns black in the dark, night sky...
Such pain and loss, in all such war
I see no god, upon our shore...
The You I knew once
promised...
Wander alone like a rhinoceros?
He is too ill tempered and short sighted...
Be as though pointless like a banana
leaf from a fruitless palm...
There was never a time
where playing happy life was easy...
I can hear the birds sing
see the trees moving...
Lest I not fusty enough to be wise;
But if't be true age does speak of wisdom learned...
With God by my side I can do whatever I want...
The devil tells me I can't do something I show him...
I've been down some dark and narrow paths
put my love aside me and used hate and messed with...
Life's foundation is built with Christ alone,
The walls are made with love and faith in him...
