Why have you forsaken me, oh Lord?

Why in confusion does my mind part?
Why does fear vandalise my heart?
Will you not hear my plea, oh Lord?

I stand before your door, bereft,
My heart this pain has rent, cleft,
Will you not open unto me, oh Lord?

The solace of your arms I seek,
Lowly I stand before you, meek,
Will you not embrace me, oh Lord?

As hope slowly dims and fades,
And darkness in my soul pervades,
Have you forsaken me, oh Lord?

  1. My dear Allahdeen, isnt it good to have this confusion at times? For it makes us feel so humble. As our heart reaches out for the warm embrace of the good Lord who smiles so indulgently and knowingly waiting for us all the time. "We have eyes and do not see" says K and how true. My dear, just let this 'I' merge with your beloved Lord. A warm lovely heart like yours will find true solace only in Him. Come to me, my dear, He keeps calling.
    What a brilliant way of expressing the turmoil within. I can almost visualise the beseeching heart in you, so powerfully do you express yourself in words. If it doesnt move the Lord then what will??:))
