Lacking

by Heather - Taurus

Ripped-out broken-bleeding
Worn, torn, shredded, reeling...
Dazed, lost, and slightly confused,
Weary, tired, and feeling abused....

I've gone through hell
And back again 
In the realms of my secret world
What I would give to rid myself
Of all dark sin
to uncurl and

Become my brightest, even
Under heavenly hot glare
Finally feel the diamond dust
Cloaked beneath this blackened wear

To shine forth the truth
God's given to me
Without the falling back
And have him always fill me up
With the love I know I lack.

Reason for writing:

    so many times i go into my days with good intentions but end up failing in so many ways....this is just an expression of how i wish i could be a better example to others of love (especially God's love) and truth.  It is a heart cry that comes from the very depths of my being.  does anyone else feel this way too?
