Starfish ZA Poems

I woke, my eyes heavy with the weight of sleep,
but the moment they opened, they filled with tears.
There you were—silent, still,
as if I were the only one
...

Move on as fast as you can
He doesn't love you, he doesn't need you,
He is a man with a fickle heart.
He will never know how much he's hurt you—
...

Oh God of wonder
God of Grace
Here I stand before you
Humbled and broken
...

The Rose and the Word

'The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever.' (Isaiah 40: 8)
...

Father, Gracious Father, Healer of hearts,
I lift my broken soul to You,
Seeking mercy to mend what is torn,
Strength to stand through this storm.
...

Does it really matter
how I feel tonight?
The silence wraps around me,
cold and tight.
...

Lift me up, O’ God

Lift me up O God
Lift me higher to You
...

On driving home tonight, I searched the sky
for something, something even I was not sure
of. ‘Tis a trifle sad when you have this longing
and you are not particularly certain
...

Standing here and soaking in Your presence Lord
Leaves me so amazed, in awe of Your grace
Your love is immeasurable and tireless
You pursued my sin laden life's road
...

My body now worn and riddled with pain

FATHER have mercy on me, LORD have mercy on me
...
