in the pouring rain

shadows dance the waltz
along the crowded wall
tear silence the world
once again we fall to you
our hands rise up
eyes down to our knees
as we talk to you

please show me the way
to purity from a newborn
so tiny and exposed
yet stays clean with your power
of which i have yet to instill
in minds of millions to me

how you have blessed
and we have rejected you
sinners of chains we are
myself included to the trails
now i fall again blessed to you
with a torch high for mercy

a smile dances in my eyes
for the light is through me
i am still searching and endless journey
life will take my down its path

and i will find it

Morning mist clings to my face, and my soul opens up to you......

Wow....very, very good. It makes you feel that in all the despair and pain, there is still an inkling of hope, and we are destined to grasp it. Good good!

Yes there will be tommorrow, but will you be there to greet it?

This was great! thank you so much! This stanza rings so true. Good job!

" I think I got a tan from the light in which i was basking."
