EMPTY CHURCH

nephilim56 ( Norman Dickson)

In an empty church
I found myself
With visions
Of the dead
A non believer
In desperate hours
Before the alter
I bowed my head.

In its peace
And tranquility
Breathing doubt
Upon this day
In silence
As if to find
Some belief
To find a way.

Silence tugged
Upon my sleeve
Eyes closed
Wishing for
Conclusion in
My troubled mind
That lay in wait
Behind the door.

    Awesome stuff as always! I imagen its me trying to force myself to find a preace, reckoning or just rockbottom.

  • sorenbarrett

    The search for meaning in life and how you make sense out of chaos. A lovely existential write.

    Faving this was a no Brainer. Great literature.
