sun sets with my emotions

sun sets with my emotions

A Poem by shawnt5604

Sun sets with my emotions
As my mind rests like calming oceans

The simple notion
Of knowing my life is complete
Like prints in the sand
A path is chosen with my feet

Peace be with the ones
Who follow my trail
Confiding in the one
Who suffered from two nails

Hanging from that cross
With all hope lost
Just to pay the cost
Of the mistakes we made

But now, with the debts he paid
My spirit has been set free
Living my life with intentions
That allow my eyes to see

Every single blessed road
That has been laid in front of me
That gladly I travel
Spreading the word abundantly

The day's last ray of sunlight
Streaks across the sky
Closure is in my heart
As I see the reasons why

I chose to follow the truth
That has brought me out of the sorrow of my youth
And now that daylight has passed
I look up to the sky and ask

Just one more time
To ensure that I'm fine
For god to take care of me
and to always let me be
The me I've always wanted to be
