The Savior

So here is another poem I wrote haha (I have to have some kind of outlet so I guess this is it) But yeah. So I wrote this one a while ago. Some of it sounds a little corny and it's definitely not the best poem out there, but it's how I was feeling at that moment.

I think sometimes we all forget what truly matters, and as we get caught up in the things of the world we start to forget the Savior's sacrifice and we lose our grip on the principles of the gospel. Maybe it doesn't happen to everyone, but it happens to me. So yeah. Here is my poem about the Savior.

Sometimes I feel a little lost.

Hopeless, trapped without a cause.

Like a broken record stuck on play,

Doing the same pointless things day after day

I feel as though chains of misery and despair

Are holding me down, and keeping me there.

It’s like a dark cloud is blinding me

Preventing me from breaking free

Then through that murky mist I see a light

The Son, shining through the darkness with power and might

And I remember the one who sets all men free.

The one who loves me for me.

The Son of God, the one who knows my ache

And when the pain is too much to shake

He is the one who gently lifts me from the floor.

He is always knocking at my door.

There is one who loves me.

He bled and prayed in Gethsemane.

He died that I might live.

He stripped me of the burden of all my sin.

Sometimes I feel a little lost.

Then I remember the one who knows my cause.

And on my knees I thank Him everyday

For being there and listening when I pray

 

(I drew this a long time ago, I think it's been 4 years)

Happy Sunday!!

LIFE

SO I’ve decided I want to blog. I’ve never blogged before so I don’t really know what I should put on here. 

But I guess my first post is just gonna be a poem I wrote a little while ago. I was sitting in my chair thinking about a bunch of stuff and I decided to write it down. So this poem is simply what I was thinking about at the time. It's called Life. Here it is --->

Life can be tricky, confusing and hard

Things that seem simple- turns out they leave scars

So tough to decide- Do I go left, or right?

Do I do it now or wait till it’s in sight?

Can I take a chance?

Will that be alright?

What if it’s wrong and I lose what I had?

Is that even all that bad?

 “For all sad words of tongue and pen,

 the saddest are these,

‘It might have been’.”

But how do I tell?

Will that turn out to be me?

Will I lose out on opportunity?

I do not want my life to be full of sorrow and regret

And yet,

What is a life without those two things?

Can it even be done by a single human being?

Or do I press on regardless of both?

Should I put my worries aside and follow my heart?

But the heart seems such a fickle thing

One day in love, the next full of hate

And so it seems that the only solution is to resign to fate.

But that doesn’t seem right

The decision is mine

Will I make my own path?

Or will I lay down and lose the fight?

I must decide today

For the longer I put it off

The more likely it seems

That all of my dreams

Will never take flight

 (I drew this the other day during my class. Obviously I wasn't paying attention haha) 

So there ya go. my first post.
