Poem 27: Heavy Eyes

Heavy eyes.
Reaching down to the dark corners of my soul
and resting on places I have yet to make known.
Heavy eyes.
Dragging with their weight a worry-burdened mind;
chained and locked inside the steal gates of time.
Heavy eyes.
Future will conclude and time will bring you rest;
stay above the waves; hope always for the best.
Heavy eyes.

  1. Poem 27: Exacerbated Sighs

    I was burdened by the by
    But when burden came I turned in shame
    And in shame I grew under the sun

    I sprouted from the thorns
    The prickling a scratch at first
    Drew blood as I became immersed

    Calling down upon God I turned
    To the sun, under the sun, sunder
    Stuck in my sways, swooned by my shame

    When thunder booms where do I turn
    My first thought should be to God
    Who will never forsake me

    When lightning thrashes and leaves giant gashes
    Do I see that when I call on thee I instead look to me?
    Lord, help me! My chains are gone! I’ve been set free!

    When I think
    Help me think
    First on Ye
