[hometext] => Going through some struggles...
[bodytext] => My faith is slipping through my fingers Falling into the tidalwave of blackened water Carreening straight toward me I am engulfed Overwhelmed I am sinking, sinking in Sinking in the depths Sinking in the depths of myself A shamble of stress eaten caverns Being flooded with a sea of doubt The wounds from fear My inadequecies are waves Crashing over my head As I am engulfed I see a face.... It's my face.... I see nothing more than one who struggles endlessly Needlessly, because of her failures Glaring me in the eye Like a mirror with its dark image Pointing it's finger... "See what you have done to yourself." I cry out to God For a solace from this stuggle That I may swim in this murky tide of struggle Or sink, sink to the depths Where is the rock of my faith That I so often stayed firmly planted on Why do I not seek the grace of Him Who pulled me from my sea of sin Why do I not seek the mercy From Him who calms the storms? Why do I not search out the beacon Who called me to His light? Why, oh why... Do I think I am on my own That's it's all up to me... Whether I sink or swim?

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
