Hopelessness

How wonderful is the word Hope...

It brightens a way...

It opens a pathway to strive...

It gives life a meaning...

It invigorates a soul...

But there are things 

that Hope can never change...

They are called reality and truth

Which only acceptance and faith

for the will and purposes of God

is the only choice...

It is called hopelessness 

a bitter truth...

A hearts plea...

As you removed him 

  from my life...

           Lord...

   Please remove him

       from my heart...

I wonder...

Father God

How do you see me?

What is my image to thee?

How do you look at me?

What am I to thee?

I wonder Oh God

what are your thoughts

about me...

      Manuelle Augustine 

              @2015

In words...

My soul hid in words...

there's nowhere  I could go 

from void and emptiness 

in each passing moment

as I breathe each passing day 

in my painful truth and reality...

        Inhopelessness 

They said...

       They said...

They said..."forget..."

They never know it's not that easy...

They said..."be strong..."

Do they know how it is...

Do they know how heavy...

They said..."hope..."

Have they been in hopelessness...

Have they lived in painful truth...

They said..."have faith..."

Only God knows how I believe...

Lord You Know...

You know in pain 

I surrender to you...

In deep sorrow 

I submit to your will...

What you have purposed 

I can not change ...

Though my soul 

is crying within

Lord you know 

I have faith in your will...
