My Joy is Within

in #bible8 years ago

My Joy is Within

When depression decapitates myself esteem
And leaves me bleeding within
A hole that's of my own making
I find my joy within

I fear that I may lose my light
I go to bed, I can't sleep at night
I'm picked at by a parasite
I find my joy within

The mocking words, I hear them say
That all the day in bed I lay
I... didn't.. want. to be this way
I find my joy within

In this world no hope I find
Like Jesus said, the blind lead the blind
So listen to me cos I'm not right?
I find my joy within

Within me is a golden chalice
That's filled up from a holy palace
I know a love which holds no malice
I find my joy with Him

I nearly didn't share this poem, baring my soul and all that...
I'm glad I did, because I went to bed last night with a great big smile.

Very glad to hear that :-)
