A Silent Tear

It seems i have fallen from your grace

i no longer see your face

so i sit to write but the words wont come

Tears roll down my face

it seems i have fallen from your grace

down trodden and all alone

no one to call upon

A deaf ear has now taken the place

of my god and his grace

though i walk through the valley of death

i do fear evil i feel alone my heart cold

and out of place

On my knees

on my face

praying to god to once

more show me his face

But not a sound

do i hear

only feel the warmth

of a single tear...

Author's Note

will ad music when i can find one to match

Much better then my failed attempt to write about God, didn't turn out so great lol.
I liked this piece, was really soulful, and from the heart.
Sad an heartbreaking, full of regret, asking for forgiveness.
This really was great :)
Keep writing :)

Stirring words.....know the feeling, though when I usually think I am at the end of "Grace Road", it miraculously starts again!

And, well, what a lovely treat to return after a long hiatus and to find your writings beaming away. The verse resonates in the hearts' chamber, my dear friend.
Thoroughly relished reading you -- shall return to catch up in due time. Cheers

Nah, not a great writer - just someone being observed and observing the world we live in. :)

[wordman]

My dear, books can never wholly justify one's veins -- you deliver your depth to us by this platform, 'tis a book in many ways. :)

[wordman]

[Bonaventure Onuabuchi]

Wow! You got my emotion down. I can relate to this poem, at times in my life I feel that I've been abadoned by my God.

[wordman]

yeah, I know we all feel that way at times.but you need to consider, it may be a test
and god will bring you down before he blesses you
