True ExperienceA Poem by Jasmine SmithTear stained face, weakened body and soul Hurt, Pain, Suffering, playing their role Brokenhearted to the core, I can’t breathe I come with my heart in my hand for you to receive All that I had is gone away All of my strength has passed today I can’t carry anymore My body grows weak as I crawl to your door Tired of lies, tired of pain I can travel no longer through this rain I fall to my knees, face planted to the ground Tears drain down my face barely making a sound I can no longer endure this life alone I can’t understand why the problems haven’t gone I lift my head pouring out sorrow Yearning for a better tomorrow I lift up my eyes and see your face I see you on the cross, I see your grace Blood drips down your face, love and pain fills your eyes My heart stops as I see you die I wash your feet with my tears, and dry them with my hair As you take away the burdens I bear I feel your warm loving hands wipe my tears I open my eyes to see you clear Your love wraps around me, warming my soul You pour into me, making me whole With love in your eyes, you reach out your hand I reach toward you with all I have left, unable to stand You pull me up weakened and bruised I can’t walk on my own, my balance I lose You turn and look in my eyes with passion and care You whisper “It’s ok I’ll carry you there” You lift me up off the ground that I fell to Caress me with a love that is so true With each step you take my troubles cease All the heartache begins to release Nothing else matters now that I am with you My savior, my God, my strength in this life I go through © 2013 Jasmine Smith |
