Poem 32 - Humbly

I have tried to walk humbly 

But my God is the one who knows

I've tired to shed my weight

But it seems my load always grows

I remember the days of old

When I would look to you and be free

The sweet feeling of peace

When I opened my eyes it is you i would see

The sun shines brightly and warms my face

I raise a song of praise 

And as I sit I can feel your sweet embrace

The thought is fleeting 

And to reality, I am quickly brought back

The cold is setting in

And so my heart, again, begins to crack

I will walk a while 

For I am too weak to think about giving in

I'm still walking alone

I really wish that you would walk with me again 

Poem 31 - Hope

I hope for a day that will never come.
I long for the one that will never arrive.


My heart breaks, for you will never be someone.
The sadness evolves and into sorrow I dive.


My body continues on, an empty husk of what used to be.
The heart hardens, and a thick wall it creates.


The shadow of a man is all that I can see.
My pain is what I feel and there is no one to relate.


I will continue traveling for the journey is not through.
So in this cold cruel world I continue to run.


Will another come and take me away from you?
Only time will tell but it is something to hope on.
