A Desparation Affect

A Desparation Affect

A Poem by T. Smeltz
"

A poem about feeling overwhelmed and burdened with emotion and a sense of being distant from God. Please bare with the rhyming or at least attempted rhyming lol.

"
Oh Lord I'm crying out. I fear Im full of doubt. The perilous seas rising about. Just wanna scream and shout but I pout and mope around. All consuming frown. My knees are giving now. The earth quakes from ground to ground and the skies are falling down and down. The earth is shaking now. I pound my chest to grab my rest but my best, it never satisfies the quest of test after test. And day after day I feel I pay my way but though I pray my heart still will stray and I'll fray everyday in my soul and heart of hearts. Always apart, as I dart from start to start to finish of my race and I will, in the end, show my grimace. I know it's in us, we will be saved if we brave and face the grave of bearing our cross because he paved the way.
