Poetry of Life Series - A Cry of the Heart

By Todd Royce Gubler

Nobody knows and really most don’t care
Few stop to see what’s really happening there

Sometimes in desperation I lie down and cry
And sometimes it’s so bad I just wish I could die

I feel the darkness enter and attempt to consume
I guess demons want me sad, at least I assume

At times like this so lonely, I can’t continue on
Wishing for comfort and longing to belong

Why is life so empty and why is life so sad
Why is the world so full of hate, why is it so bad

I question why my lot is mine and search desperately for peace
And the answer that I always find is whispered to sweet relief

God alone is Master and very much in control
Everything has reason that sometimes only He knows

And then I feel the darkness break and feel the light begin
And deep inside I feel at peace just knowing I have Him.
