I remember being so lonely The silence so loud Climbing the walls An existential nightmare I remember being so empty A hollowness so gripping A vessel completely dry I remember being so fearful Unable to do What at one time was second nature I remember Being totally unskilled in relationships And desperately seeking to be in one I remember Being very poor Lacking much that many people possess What I remember Led me to read the bible To seek God To give my life to Christ To begin to meditate To cast away all that man had taught me And give my attention to God What I remember Was the greatest blessing one could have I gave up all distractions The distractions that keep people from seeking the truth The distractions that fritter away one's life Education, success, sports, music, television, movies All good things that mitigate against the best What I remember Was one day experiencing God Directly Without mediation And changing my destiny forever What I remember Has taken a long time to accomplish Completeness and oneness with God And the hope of eternal life amen |
