PREPAREDNESS

Contributed by Adelle on Thursday, 18th May 2006 @ 03:37:10 AM in AEST
Topic: spiritual



The sun has set over the horizon
dropping behind the mountain
in a split moment
my day light has gone.
scrambling around for preparedness
I have nothing of such....
Fear besets in my eyes
I Pray I might make it to sunrise
caught in the midnight
caught with out a light
lord, I pray
I know I am not prepared but show me the way
my heart is good
I ve lived mostly the way I should
I’ve not turned to darkness
the light, I keep trying to face
but yet the darkness besets upon me
and for it I am not ready
my flash light is not at hand
and the suns dropped behind the mountain
such fears and anxieties
besets upon my hearts beatings
one fallen step
and Im shattered, yet
if I would have been prepared
the fallen sun would not matter
but one fallen step and my world will shatter
in an instant im fallen through the earth
yet a good person I am
a good heart and spirit I have
with so much desire to do good
please help me to be prepared
now walking blind,
everything’s harder to find
yet I must go on
and prepare in faith with out the sun
making everything harder
I have been so stubborn
if I would have prepared earlier
id be ready here-
to face the darkness with out the sun
with a light at hand to reflect on
I have chosen a harder plight
but I hope I can grow inside
becoming stronger in the night
preparing in faith, im walking blind
hoping you will be my guide
strengthening my preparedness inside

Preparedness is indeed part of the spiritual jouney. Seems to me we can be our better selves if we know how to handle whatever the future holds. Excellent work - keep writing! eg
