Listen

A pain I can't express
The tension straining before me
My heart is beating and reason is crying
I wish I could close my ears
I wish I could close my heart

Its hard to hear from another's lips
Truth that will be denied
Listen as hurtful words are delivered
Listen because I can't turn away

Listen, can't you hear them?
Quiet tears falling behind you
Silence fills the space between
But can't you hear it?

Hear the screaming in the silence
"Show me thy ways, O Lord; teach me thy paths. Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day." Psalm 25:4-5

"Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I am desolate and afflicted.
The troubles of my heart are enlarged: O bring thou me out of my distresses.
Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins.
Consider mine enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred.
O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee.
Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee.
Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles." Psalm 25: 16-22

Very nice... I'm getting the feels. There needs to be a Like button. Also, the art/writing boards don't get the attention they deserve, and seem to be overlooked. And that's a shame, cause there are some nice things (like dis) here!
Do you see this gorgeous creature?

That graceful profile. Those striking eyes. Behold the albino moose.

Thanks AM. And yeah, I agree. A Like button would be nice.

Very nice, I'm not any good at writing poems. I understand what the intent behind the writing is (usually at least), but trying to get my thoughts out in a structured form like that is hard for me. Well done Wolf. :thumb:
