Psalm

A poem of love and appreciation.

In moments of darkness, 

when only tears kept me company, 

you floated to my side, 

and my heart filled with peace. 

In moments of weakness, 

when I quivered on the brink of sanity, 

you took me in your arms, 

and I could finally fall asleep. 

In moments of uncertainty, 

when I grasped at open air, 

you supported my feet, lifted me, 

and let me taste the stars. 

Though eternally grateful, 

I'll never understand

how you could possibly love me, 

when I always run from you. 

Yet when the world grows too cold, too empty, 

and the drink it offers dries out my lips, 

I stumble back to your door

and you always answer me. 

Ruler of my word, 

breath in my lungs, 

fountain of grace, 

king of my life

This is my song...

your song...

Our song.

What unconditional, compassionate love is like...always forgives, always forgets, always supports, always sets free. Congrats on finishing your first year of college! Hope you have plenty of rest and fun this summer!

Very nice song you sung in your melodic voice that's keep reverberating even across the hues of this world in disguise of blown-winds (cold/salted... frozen winds).

There's one typo in the below line:

"and the drink if offers dries out my lips.. "

I think, it's "IT" not "IF".. so the line must be like this:

"and the drink it offers dries out my lips... "

The rest of the piece's very well written in your love; with your love. Keep it up!
