You

Clara

You will find me waiting on my knees for you

Please tell me what it is you want from me

Is it the love within my heart

Is it the strength within my bones

Or is it the will within my mind

Or the peace within my soul

For you are the ultimate goal

We search across land and sea for you

Please tell me what it is you want from me

I will wait upon my knees for you

In twisted sheets of nightmares I will pray for you

In overwhelming crowds of confliction I will yearn for you

For you are the ultimate goal

You hear tales of the people who have found you

Fervent in their description of you

I can see it in their eyes

For they shine the light of you

They speak of having you all along

That it is the journey in finding you

That if I turn my gaze upon myself

You are already deep inside of me

Until my time

Until I find you

You will find me on my knees for you.

        No problem or worries, my pleasure entirely and I have no doubt folk will eventually share their own interpretations and values with ya.... 🙂

          Oh I do hope so. I do enjoy the resulting discussion following a reading of a poem. For me it's part of the joy writing them! 😊

              That light is within you, just let it out to shine from you to the world around you.

                It is time to realise the spirit you seek is within you.
                Glory in it's presence and let it shine from you upon everything you encounter.

                • Clara

                  Perhaps it is. I just wish it would show its face more often.

                  Thank you for reading and commenting as always my dear friend.

                  Great write Clara
                  so many questions we ask others and ourselves what do we believe?

                  • Clara

                    Thank you very kindly Andrew. I appreciate you taking the time to read and comment upon my little poem.

                    Interesting and I've been on my knees to many times, now I've found my wings and just fly. I hope one day you'll lift off too, tears dry quickly when there is more of you!

                    Great work!

                    • Clara

                      Even though I am not religious, this beautifully written poem, and I mean really beautiful!, shows a person waiting for Christ.
