A Silent Tear

It seems i have fallen from your grace

i no longer see your face

so i sit to write but the words wont come

Tears roll down my face

it seems i have fallen from your grace

down trodden and all alone

no one to call upon

A deaf ear has now taken the place

of my god and his grace

though i walk through the valley of death

i do fear evil i feel alone my heart cold

and out of place

On my knees

on my face

praying to god to once

more show me his face

But not a sound

do i hear

only feel the warmth

of a single tear...

Author's Note

will ad music when i can find one to match

Beautiful...and heart breaking...all we have left is our faith..that He is there and listening..

[wordman]

yeah roma I agree but this is where we spend most of our time or at least I do been in church for !!! years and I just don`t seem to connect thank you

[ANTO]

I applaud you wordman for your tenacity in writing from the eye of a tumultous life-storm.
If i could paraphrase a well known poem 'Footprints in the sand' - When you felt only one hand on the pen it was then that I was writing for you...

You make me think wordman - thats always appreciated. thank you

[wordman]

you know, we all walk through the valley , all prophets cried out to god why have you forsaken me

Very powerful poem. Sad to read too. I thought it was interesting when you spoke of walk through the valley of death that you do fear evil. I thought that was an interesting spin on the biblical verse.

[wordman]

the bible is a great book,but in reality we live much differently
thank you for the visit
