Confession (Part 3)A Poem by Derek BarnesAll these confessions are a prequel to Museum. I made it a series because that's what it seemed like I was doing. Just making confessions about how I felt in my faith.
God, every time I cry out I wonder, are you even hearing this/ can you renew someone that feels like they shouldn't even exist/ if I've made an impact how come I don't see a difference/ yeah, the depression I thought was long gone has found its way back/ my defenses were down and the devil went on the attack/ I thought your love in me was perfected/ now I feel like I'll never be able to reflect it/ your joy was supposed to be my strength/ now the time in my life, I'm wishing you would shorten the length/ I know all I have to say seems dark and gloomy/ when usually life is what's being breathed through me/ this just isn't one of those times/ maybe I'm a light that wasn't destined to shine/ wait, what happened to my fire, to my passion/ I feel so disconnected and I don't even know what caused it to happen/ so I hope that me in your prayers you will mention/ that I see for myself that for me there is redemption/ you probably wanted to be inspired, don't forget, there isn't always going to be happy things said in a confession..
