Psalm 25:18 Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins.
SACRIFICE
All rights reserved: copyright © Joni Zipp
***
Sometimes our lives intermingle with one
Allowing us to expand ourselves.
Committing to the spatial amount of time
Remembering to allow each others wings to
spread
Into the fullness of a blossom.Forever being grateful for the journey
Into each others soul
Constantly nurturing…
Each others total hollow shell.

Sunken Treasure

Anything is more than me.
I am the waif that spans decades,
of searching.
Lost among the vibrating echoes of silence,
abandoned
on the sandy shore of loneliness.
Collapsing on the pier of destiny,
waiting effortlessly
for the ship.
The ship that will take me out to sea,
and drown me in the emptiness of space.
Waves will crash around me.
I'll burrow in the whitecaps,
until I become...
a sunken treasure.
***
***
Father, Father, what have I done?
Seems I have fallen from number one.
Faltered, Faltered, where do I turn?
Please come save me, from hellfires burn.
Sheltered, Sheltered, was my soul.
On the top, I once was whole.
Fallen, Fallen, out of space.
I wipe a teardrop from my face.
Hear me, Hear me, hear my cries.
Take this sadness from my eyes.
I beg thee, beg thee, don't let it win.
Take me, Take me, from this sin.
Forgive me, Forgive me, for I have strayed.
Sinful choices, I have made.
Save me, Save me, as you always do.
Return my soul so I begin anew.

Inspiring, Joni!
Your words paint pictures and emotions in my soul.
Take care,
June
Like an artists palette, my words create images that everyone can behold. :-)
Thanks June!
Joni,
I think I like "Sunken treasure" the most maybe because of the mood I am in.
I feel the best lines for me are:
"Lost among the vibrating echoes of silence."Deep and paradoxical.
and
"abandoned
in the sandy shore of loneliness.
"Collapsing on the pier od destiny,
waiting effortlessly
for the ship."
The problem is that THE ship we are waiting for, many a tme doesn't arrive.
Ana
Well Ana,
There is reason to believe that what we are waiting for, was right here all the time and we just didn't see it?
I have hope anyway, because that ship is way way out at sea. ;-)
Joni
