Below is a little spoken word I wrote in the summertime. I was inspired by my friend who is so into poetry. I had no intentions of writing this poem, but this is what came out. Hope you too can see how powerful God is, and note that he's capable of doing all things. No one can hold you back, not even yourself. The harder it gets, the harder you fight. The heavier the burdens, make it your business to run to the altar and hand it over to God. Hope you enjoy!
"Silent Lies"
In the midst of silence, you whispered.
Screamed so loud, yet you tried to divide the picture, of me.
Had me scattered like glass.
You see I was created in his image.
You are the slaughter.
I'm his daughter, and
You, you are beneath me.
You're nothing more
Nothing more than the man
Who stands before me
Convincing me to believe his lies in disguise.
I've fallen into the depths of the sea, drowning.
I've fallen into the depths of the sea, drowning.
Gasping for air
Left in despair, hopeless.
choking
choking
When you left me breathless
You allowed my father to keep me desperate
For his will
For his way
No longer could the pain
seep through my face
and leave me bound
In my mess
A picture of my past reflects
The insecurity that bled through my pores
Inking the path I was destined to walk on
You paved that I ground I stopped on
Surrounded by chains
Enclosed by knots
His blood prevailed
He made the paved the path I walk on
I am free.
Who freed me?
Jesus.
He destroyed all you tried to make of me
What you promised to take from me
Breaking me, Shaking me
Only my God can break me down to build me up
Now beauty bleeds through my pores
He has restored
Your lies are condemned
His truth speaks louder than your lies that are silenced
