Redemption

by Rusheena   Jul 6, 2010


As blank as my thoughts appear this hour
My eyes seem to focus, only, on future peace and power
Difficult at best, yet so highly esteemed
God's good graces are what I strive to have redeemed

As quiet as my mouth stays this afternoon
I know that my heart will restore very soon
So peaceful is the sound of my tears hitting the floor
For I now feel what I've lost months before

Yet my mind persists to roam in the dark partially blind
Because post-ignorance introduced what I continue to find
Cold water, which turned my pure soul lukewarm
With warning being ignored, I ,once again, joined the swarm

After months of hypothermia, I finally decided to thaw
I remembered that His hand over-powers his claw
I am warming up again, but progress is slow
One day, my strength will return, and I will continue to know

That independence is only an illusion
And sole understanding only leads to confusion
So now, I fight for Holy fire
For my redemption lies only in this desire
Faith and works is what He requires
