Oh God!
I search for you daily, never to find
Are you atop a glorious mountain
I'm never to climb?
Why is it, when I give my all with you I fail?
Are you at the ocean's center
On some boat i'll never sail?
Or underneath a tree?
Like the Buddha should I wait?
I think i need to gain your love
To release my hate
Can you find me? I'm trying to gain your attention!
Waiting in suspension..
Waiting for my lesson...
How can I be happy? Just tell me and I'll listen
Or am I on a one-way
Road to perdition?
Is there joy for me? Or only bleak blackness
I'm looking at this earth as it spins on its axis
My head spins at the same speed - thought's never end
Will I finally get rest or will I end up being dead again?
And again and again, Please take me in your arms
Kiss me on the forehead
And never cause me harm
Take me out this circle of pain - out this journey of life
Will I find you at the tip of this knife, Almighty Christ?
...Please tell me what I have to do
'Cause I've never even had you
But I'm attatched to you...

i just love this poem...the way you have described
God and your urge to find him, to reach to him is just unmatchable..God bless!!

This is an EXCELLENT work of writing. Searching for God is quite a difficult task, but not because he's not reachable, because it's so hard to believe in such magnificance that you cannot see! But the key is faith! We're never without God if we hold onto Faith. Good Job on this!

Life's questions of longevity and wisdom always ring in the ear of those searching for divine guidance and inspiration. These as many other questions asked in our youthful inquisitiveness are valid. These questions, asked for centuries have answers that reveal themselves to you in this lifetime, are being presented in a way that suits your own personal needs at the appointed time, only YOU. Please know that you are not alone in your asking or inquiries. I think Christ means for you to endure. We have so very little to suffer in comparison to what Christ suffered for us. Be free of sorrow and let joy rain down on you like blessing-filled showers. Free indeed in Christ Jesus!
Romans 8:1
"There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit."
You have given me food for thought with this writ my dear. It is great to read your words again!
I LOVE YOU ALways ♥
