He Said...

It's time for you to learn how to do and be at the same time

A Lament...

I am a stranger walking these streets.
I feel unknown in a known place.
A cold, wet fog surrounds me like a storm at sea in the middle of the night.
I cannot escape this uncomfortable awkward feeling looming over me.
I do not want this, I want to embrace something and make it mine, but how can a stranger do that?
I want to dance on the sea shore in the warm sun during summer.
Jesus where are you now? Where do I go from here? I want the things you’ve promised me.
I am beginning to realize that I need to fight for the things that are mine. It seems as though I always choose the wrong battle.
Why can I not call what is not as though it was? Why are my eyes so fixed on what they see?
I feel as though I am haunting a former life; how can I be at rest?
Where can I belong? Where can I be accepted for who I am, who I was and who I want to become?
