ARISE
Some days the air seems heavy,
It pulls my spirit down.
It’s hard to draw the breath of life
And not to gasp a sound.
The morning air is stagnant.
My head throbs with pain.
I wonder how long til night comes,
This feeling, my existence’s bain.
I rise because we all do.
I breathe because of need.
I scream aloud on the inside,
I prepare to live out the deed.
I have a feeling of sadness.
My losses are too weighty to bear,
It opens the door to madness,
I think of the hurts that snare.
There is always change in the evening,
A coolness and movement of air.
Life came and went in the daytime.
I found things that show I care.
There is one thing to take hold of.
Not a mystery, secret, obscure.
It was in my heart to begin with,
I find it there for sure.
It’s quiet and unassuming,
Often buried under fare and fret.
I need to spend time to look inward.
An exercise I would not regret.
HOPE can be small and o’r shadowed.
My heart should open that first.
How different the day be unfolding,
If for that gift of HOPE I would thirst.
HOPE whispers peace and clarity.
It laughs never gasping for breath.
It weeps with cleansing and washing.
It promises both life and death.
When I awake in the morning,
I will search in the tiniest place,
I will find the HOPE that HE gave me,
Then look up to gaze on HIS face!
