Burnt Soul...

Burnt Soul...

His soul smoldering in an inferno lit life,
flames of sin, ash away unrighteous decisions,

Leaving a crispy soul, to cry black tears of help,
to a GOD, his burnt soul has denied from the beginning of time,

With all bridges completely inflamed,
the scorched soul has no other option but to submit
to his creator and beg for forgiveness of sins,
and help to refurbish his hell fire inner being,

With his knee bent and a melted tongue to confess,
his charred soul, will start his upward assent to repairing,
a lava plagued heart,

With his soul completely embers, he reaches for the heavens
and yells, " FREEDOM " and for the first time in his hell bound life,
he feels just that...

ALL GLORY AND PRAISE BELONGS TO CHRIST JESUS!!!

I wish I had read this piece sooner... :) Such intense emotion delivered with such honesty! I am sorry, that you have ever felt so alone with 'a lava plagued heart'. I wish I could go back to that moment and give you a hug or sometthing!

"With all bridges completely inflamed,

This is just one of the many strong descriptions that really made me feel this poem.

"Angry Cry" gave me a glimpse of you in moments human. "Burnt Soul" gives me an idea of why you may be scared of loosing control, why you distrust yourself to loose your temper...

For me this was a very strong poem!

I don't know what you have done... though, when I said:""Burnt Soul" gives me an idea of why you may be scared of loosing control, why you distrust yourself to loose your temper... " I did not mean that in judgemental way. It is more because you seem so pained and troubled that I imagine any strong emotion, like anger, might be associated with this time, when you certainly did not have your life under control... Though I am glad that you enjoy the 'nice me' :) I hope you still have some sympathy for the 'not nice me'.

Thanks for checking it out! God is so good, not only did he give me life,
he has saved it and transformed it and continues to mold me everyday!
All glory belongs to God!

Very heart wrenching write here. I pictured a man made of ash, on his knees, begging for forgiveness. It's always hard to see or even picture in such a state of desperation. But it is life. We must know that God loves us for who we are and it is our choice to follow him or not. He is such a savior and dependable guide for us and we should never lose faith that he will turn us away if we happen to do wrong. He will always be there, no matter what we do. And he is always willing to forgive those who have gone astray.

[Jamestown]

You are absolutely right! Thanks for checking it out and b-blessed
