The Old And The New Me (original poem by @SumatraNate)
Spiritually blind, emotionally jaded,
Enslaved by death, the law, and sin,
Driven by works and the ways of men.
A heart of stone turned back to flesh.
Truth and Peace now guide my days,
And fill my soul with endless praise.

I am not really into poetry but this one has something cathartic to it :)
@zija2022, thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment. I appreciate you letting me know that my poem is making an impact.
I feel blessed to be able to share how I am feeling. I hope it becomes a blessing to others as well.
I feel I go back and forth sometimes! Thanks for sharing.
Glad to share. Emotionally I move back and forth at times. At a fundamental level (spiritually) I am trying to live a life in the second stanza.
In order to succeed we need to learn from our failures
Learning is an important part of life. For me, transformation is also important.
Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment.
That says it all, and what a beautiful way to say it!
Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment. I appreciate it.
You are welcome. Have a Blessed weekend! :-)
Wow, I really like this. I like how the two stanzas have a total shift - just like when you lay your life down! This is a really nice poem - good job.
Thanks for the kind comment @apanamamama. I was definitely going for a shift. It describes how my life has dramatically changed.
