Compiling God's Code

I feel alone.
Lost.
Forgotten.
Needing someone to cry on.
Never knowing,
never wanting to know
that there might be
someone wanting to cry on
me.

Not seeing
WE are lonely,
searching for love,
companionship,
wondering how others
fake happiness,
smiling their troubles away.

slipping into ourselves,
we don’t need to be
alone.
after all, we’re living in
a house of lonely people.

fresh blue eyes
shimmer…
like wet marbles
(streaked with gold)
in the early morning light.

full pink lips
explore…
soft like rose petals
(brought gently to the nose)
at her mother’s breast.

short purple fingers
hold…
like God’s embrace
(stretched from Heaven’s throne)
onto my quivering finger.

Only hours old…
she…
satisfies my life
she…
captures my soul.

Romans did not crucify the Lord of my life.
He did not perish on top of some hill.
He was not sacrificed by agnostics;
He was not flogged by atheists.
Christ didn’t bear the burden… of men long forgotten.
Ignorance didn’t dictate His fate.
Intelligence didn’t ensure His capture.
No! Romans did not crucify the Lord of my life.
I do…
I crucify my Lord,
but He never perishes.
He sacrifices
so sins no longer destroy my flesh.
Christ bears my burdens… of sins forgiven.
When hate enslaves my heart,
His love ensures my release.
NO! Romans did not crucify the Lord of my life.
I do… but my Lord loves me still.

The Lord gives.
The Lord takes.
He fills my soul
that
which I don’t deserve.
I chase… and fall.
Like the shadows of a setting sun,
it stretches outward away from me.
I pray for
that
which I don’t deserve.
God! You torture me!
You keep me wanting more.
I am just a stupid man.
Please, give me
that
which I don’t deserve.
Keep me lonely.
Keep me depraved.
Keep me a beaten man.
Just get it away
that
which I don’t deserve.
Glory comes
to those that follow You.
To me… sacrificed it all.
No no no, I still want
that
which I don’t deserve.
