May I interrupt your constant need
to dwell upon the pain
Yes, your misery loves the company
please don’t tell me again
You enjoy the things of sorrow
I know… you’ve said it loud and clear
Tell me something else today
something you don’t want to hear
I’ll open the door of the prison
that is nothing but a space
a place inside your mind
where you have habits to embrace
Come outside–I’ll hold your hand
It’s a beautiful day out here
Leave that space for a moment
walk through that threshold of your fear
When you step into the newness
you may feel a bit of stress
But take heed, my dear friend
God is always at His best
He will step outside with you
then walk you back inside
He’ll leave the door unlocked
he’ll stay with you when you hide
When I come back to your shelter
and invite you out to roam
will you step outside to wander
down that street not far from home
Or will the invisible shackle bind you
to the floor of your abode
You are stronger than that veil of fear
you can remove that thin blindfold
Your door is now wide open
leave fear there at home
just for a little while
while we walk through the unknown
I’ll be there to walk with you
and when I leave your side
embrace the One who’s all-knowing
and the peace that He provides
You are awesome with your words!

We all need to recognize
the beauty in its essence
what you’ve right here
it’s beautiful with a sense.
You have shown now
today in this piece of art
how wonderful is poetry
how it can touch a heart.
We feel lonely fighting
depression’s mess and fuss
here is a good way to say
God is always with us.
