Poetry: I was all alone in my heaving sadness of great loneliness

Love is so very powerful, but without the courage to love, we fall into a deep pit of saddened aloneness. Life is so sad, spent in your self alone.

I had so much love to give,

but I just could not give it.

I had so much life to live,

but I could just not live it.

I had died to myself,

so long ago as myself.

I now was too afraid,

to resurrect who I was.

How can I ever find,

the meaning in God's love?

His love is all I ever need,

my love's all I have to give.

I cannot give my love out.

I feel so alone in my pain.

I cannot live, nor die yet.

Love has all but burnt me out.

Love grows strong in its giving.

The gift of love comes alive in love.

When you are afraid to love you can still feel it,

but your sadness reaps not love, but pained pain.

I needed renewed strength to love.

I needed the courage to live.

But life kept giving me such pain,

that I stayed in my pain, of my pain.
