The Sinking Ship




Frozen beneath the ocean
Lost in a world of cold
Down down he goes
Both hands above his sinking head
Frozen fingers in search of his love
A sunken ship
A freezing night
Filled with disaster and screams
Voices wailing in desperation
Bodies floating in chaos
Pieces of our once loved ship everywhere
This abyss was dreadful to the living
Down down she went
A plunge to the heart of the ocean
A loud cry she gave
The deafening sound drowned their cry
Down below she went
Stealing the beats of many hearts
The cold won the fight
The Olympians won again
And down below did the Titan go again

In a place...I found



In a place of none and nothing
I found something
In a place of lack and scarcity
I found abundance
In a place of poverty and indigence
I found wealth
In a place of war and conflict
I found peace


In a place of sorrow and mourning
I found joy
In a place of sickness and affliction
I found health
In a place of barrenness and impotence
I found fruitfulness
In a place of loneliness and desolation
I found company

In a place of no you
I found you

WHY



Why walk without God, when you can walk with God
Why live life without God, when you can live a life with God
Why dance for man, when you can dance for God
Why sing for man, when you can sing for God
Why worry, when you can pray to God
Why struggle, when you can ask God
Life is simple
Why complicate it
