Poetry

I wrote this sometime last year. Sometimes things stay relevant or solid. At least for me. I can't promise brilliance, so here. . .


Thoughts of distress
Creep up on me
Like a big storm
Upon the sea

Finding no way
Of escaping it,
But not wanting
To surrender either

Deciding to jump
Means death by waves,
Deciding to stay may
Mean death by fright

Instead of surrendering
To fright or death
I will surrender to
The One who
Holds my heart

He will save me
From the enemy's lies,
From all the torment
That plagues my soul

Throw me a rope,
Give ear to my cry
So You can put me
Back on dry ground,
A place I know is firm
