The Door of Darkness (Christian Poem)

It was a beautiful door.Expensive wood. Carved features. A mind that understood. The door called.It beckoned.It glowed. It welcomed. The words it would sing. Sweet. Soft. Gentle. Words that delighted the soulyetmelted the marrow. I never noticed before.How it alwaysopened to another door. Going from woodto metal. Less beautiful,the effects more internal. The doors became…

Cut Me From My Roots (Christian Poem)

I’m comfortable.I’m growing.My roots are deep. I’m sowing. I don’t like change.Leave me here. False sense of control.Tons of fear. Prune my leaves.But don’t prune meoff from my rootsand set me free. I’ll die without roots.Why would You take what is precious?My roots. My home. Don’t You know that I’m self-conscious?! My journey.My life.It’s about…

Fall From My Eyes (Christian Poem)

Darkness surrounds me,but I think it’s light. My eyes are blind,but I think I see clearly. Whispers bite me.Accusation sinks in. But I love condemnation. It’s my truth. The pain makes me alive. Fear is my veins. Toxic lies are my tonic. Black is my white. Dirt is pure. Blemish is clean. Muck is my…

The Hand That Chisels

In joy, the sun-kissed skies dance along the waves of grass. I am free, as the wind blows. The days are short and pass. In darkness, the rain weeps down.Loudly pounding the ground.I am chained and broken.The days are long and nights longer. In bliss, I am merry. In darkness, I am consumed. In light,…

Cotton Candy Life | Christian Poem

Oh, how I long for the good days! Frolicking in the meadows. Where sunsets are always golden. Air scented with lilac petals. How I wish for lovely feelings and no pain to come nearby.Everything goes right around me.There are no tears or heavy sighs. A cotton candy life. Yes, please, I am so fragile. I…

Beautiful Cage (UnAshamed)

For awhile now, I’ve been desiring to write a poem inspired heavily by Pilgrim’s Progress cage of despair. I finally sat down, and wrote the following over on my blog UnAshamed Christian Housewife. I would like to write a post on here, later, digging into the lines, while sharing a ton of scripture to go…

Reconciled (It Is Good) | Christian Poem

Ink Of Christian Pen | Poem

Ink that is steady. Words made clear. Flows like it’s ready. Structure, its steer. Suddenly Emotions erupt. Blurry. Unsteady. Smear. The pen is dry. Nothing. Effortless. No words. New ink. Refueled. Words come easy. A writer’s gold mine. Emotions. Self-control. Discipline. What shall you choose? As a Christian blogger and writer, I’ve noticed that just…
