Waiting at Home

You were there from the start
You watched as God enveloped my heart
We shared the beginning of my life
Hearts knelt in God's glorious Light

You guided me from that very first day
Mentor and child in every way
Little did I realise what my life would become
Weighted and heavy, an added sum

Without our God, life is ended
Mortals hopeless frailty rendered
For God the only Light in darkness burns
Forever a desperate, dark heart yearns

I didn't know how far I'd gone
Until you showed me what was wrong
The plant from the vine removed
Its lifeblood dry, death ensued

My life I owe to my Saviour's heart
His mercy from me ne'er depart
But without you, my friend, I'd be
Left in the dark for eternity

Always remember wherever you roam
A heart that loves you waits at home.

I love this last line.  Your poetry expresses your feelings well and your desires.  Keep up the great work.  You will minister to people through your poems that come from the Lord.
