Holy Week; day 3

This week is Holy Week. The week between Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday. Each day of Holy Week, I’m going to post a Bible verse.

These verses do not necessarily have anything to do with resurrection.

Proverbs 1:33

Whoso hearkeneth unto Me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.

Stepping out of my comfort zone

This whole writing process has ripped me  out of my comfort zone. 

It’s one thing to sit in the comfort of your own home,

and write scores of pages untold. 

Is it bold?

Is it dreaming?

Hoping, wishing, scheming?

It is one thing to pour out your heart in solitude. 

Where it’s just your attitude. 

Writing is the easy part. 

Working up the nerve to step out; that’s just the start. 

Every action gets questioned. 

Could this be the right method?

*I did it. Been debating with myself for a while now if I really should post my poem Hard Fought Hallelujah in the comment section for the song on YouTube. I have a few shorts/videos on YouTube. They are there with the ultimate goal of putting the video on my blog. Just more stepping outside my comfort zone. 

Disappointment

O’ thy light of happiness,

Do not leave me in a constant state of darkness. 

Linger on me a moment longer.

This! O’ this will not make me stronger. 

Stay! O’ thy pleasant light.

You do not have to be bright. 

Just light, so all things are not consumed.

Stay with me; light of life, do not leave me entombed.

I wish not to a labor a bemoan.

For the love you show can never be cloned. 

My soul cannot bear this separation.

I wish not to feel this station.

Petty? Never!

A state I wish never to sever.

Do not admonish the emotion.

Rise, fall, never leave such great potion.

Never greedy.

No! Not needy.

Wanting, longing, deepest insight.

Never leave me hanging for thy light. 

Detest not.

Disappoint not.

Walk with me.

Teach me. 

Shine on the dull recess of my soul,

joy, love, light, on me dole.

Let your mercy lay on my desire

Disappoint me not, light never expire.
