I walk out in the night……...alone here with my fright I don’t know if I’ll make it too I look up to the sky………….. Alone I wonder why What it was they did…… to you The veils are falling from my eyes…….listening to your cries These things are filling up my head Pain is all I feel inside……….I wanna take myself and hide All those stupid words they said When I drift out on my own………wanting to return home I know its love that's gonna get me through So take my thoughtless heart……….I know it’s torn apart But it’s all that I can offer you The sky’s looking kinda black……..I see it looking back But there’s a new horizon born The fog is lifting from my eye…….it’s from the tears I cry For us there is a brand new dawn Jon Mewett This poem is written for my mum...........she has mourned my father for 25 years .......just recently something has happaned in her life .....something powerful.........she's quite different...this just came to me........thinking of them. jon [This message has been edited by Jon Mewett (edited 09-28-2000).] |

Jon, this is so beautifully written. It shows both fear and hope. "so I take my thoughtless heart....I know it's torn apart, but it's all I can offer you" This reminds me of a song... come unto to me all ye who are weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest... Just a few words to the song. The heart is all we need to offer Christ, he can fix a wounded heart. My mom lost my dad in 1983 in a very tragic way. It was devastating to her also. Prayers going up for your mom, give her a hug for me. Deb ![]() |

Full of love this piece was penned To the Lord my prayers I'll send For comfort from the Lord above May He send his peace and love. This was a wonderful poem! I'm glad to hear things are taking a wonderous change for her. It's hard to lose someone. God bless you both! Thank you for sharing what touched your heart! ![]() <*\\\>< I know not what the future holds, but I know Who holds the future. |

Jon~ I found a soft little melody to this piece. Very nicely done ... I would think your Mum will like it. I wish her much happiness. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

What a touching piece! My own Mom knew of the Lord, but didn't know Him, in spite of my years of trying so hard to help her understand. Just before she died, the dawn came. How relieved we both were, so I can relate to your words very well. Thank you. |
