Purpose Through the Tears

Purpose Through the Tears

(read "Unknown" below then read this)

This is the night

For this I breathe

The song in my soul returnith

The drum beats wildly as the unceasing cadence pushes me on

A kick of my heels and the wind is my friend

My crouched body moves in rhythm

My wild hair slips from behind its’ cover and whips freely behind me

My eyes pierced on the lights in the distance

My mind drifts to the journey behind me

The lonely tears that fell in the night

The slip of my foot and my trembling grasp on the Cliffside

Trudging, crawly, dragging slowly through the marsh

Always hoping the next hill would bring me to this place

Only to find mountain after mountain in the horizon

Only to find a new challenge to overcome

Only to hear… more silence…

Is this truly the end?

Or will there be another battle to fight

Another trial to keep me away

Away from my destination

So close …

I can feel it,

Almost see it,

Almost believe it

Oh Lord, let this be the night I rest

On a soft bed of white linens

And sleep in the safety

Of your warm love

Let me wake in the morning and BE

Everything this journey has made me into

Everything your hands have molded me for

Let my hands be shaped to do your will

I am ready…..

I am ready now…..
