standing
sitting
staring in to space
laughing at a joke
or screaming out my rage
You are there

too many times
not looking for Your face
never noticing Your tears
for my sin
for my shame

too many lies
told in vain
untaken chances
to share the wonder that is You

I remember how I was
so dark and hurtfull
full of nothing but hate
and fear

remind me again
how it should be
how it was ment to be
between us
and patiently wait
for me to return.

Dana, oh sweetie, yes sometimes we are full of fear and hate and sometimes that fear and hate is instilled in us by someone else but you know what?  God is greater than all fear and his love can remove anything that was thrown at us, put into us, comes from us, and we can really shine and you did with this one. Bless you.

Dana; This was beautifully written.  It shows hurt in the background.  But, God can help us to overcome all that.  It takes time, but with God's grace that can happen.  You have a beautiful talent, and have expressed yourself so well in this poem.  God bless.  Wanda

I connect with this one completely. I wrestle with the same problem. Very nice poem.

Very emotional read!  Even when we are angry at Him, He loves us and waits for us to realize it.
