Poem <3


Lost

Lost and forgotten, how did I get to this place?
Confused and stumbling, I just seemed to fall into this dark abyss.
Tossing and Turning, trying to find an escape.
But DARK fingers claw at me,
continually bringing me back to this emptiness.
Every day, living only for my pleasures and desires.
But if I'm meant to live for this, why am I always searching for more?
I'm always climbing, but to what am I reaching towards?
Drowning, Lost, searching but never finding.
But then a light pierces, what is that beautiful shining?
I squint but I stare.
Why would I ever look away?
I reach towards the light, but hesitate again.
But , NO, there's that voice again in my mind.
Taunting and pulling me back to the black.
Back to the nothingness I live in.
But then, a new voice breaks through.
A faint, gentle whisper.
But where is it coming from?
I'm searching again, desperately seeking every part of me for the source of the loving hushed voice.
The voice in my head starts screaming, speaking evils against the voice I seek for so earnestly.
The screaming begins to falter as I focus on the whisper.
It speaks to my heart, to the deepest part of me.
It speaks of saving grace,
Of Unfaltering Love,
Of a FATHER who waits with open arms,
Of a Saviour who gave His everything just to live with and know me.
I fall to my knees and raise up humble hands.
For so long I've been LOST and searching.
But now...
I have been Found, Embraced.
The searching is Finished.
And I have been carried Home.
