Remembering

Hello. :) I wrote this poem last night. I was feeling really sorry for myself about a lot of things that really aren't important in the span of eternity. I started to write this poem as an outlet to the way I was feeling. It probably would've ended up really negative and I wouldn't have posted it. But, I am so thankful to my Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ for reminding me of what I do have on this Earth and of who I am. They are always looking out for me. Even when I feel so low, I can feel them touch my heart and comfort me; telling me that it's going to be okay. I've just got to keep going and keep trying my best in this life. That is all that Christ wants: each of our personal bests. He doesn't expect perfection. Love life and love yourself. Always remember who you are:

All I want is freedom.
All I seek is love.
I thought I found my jail break
when I found light above.
I know it's there.
I know he's there.
I know I'm not alone.
But it's just me-
my selfish mind-
that wants to lead me home.
But where is home?
Somehow I know.
Yet there are moments when I'm lost.
I live and breathe so desperately
because he paid the cost.
I know the pain he took for me
suffices for my sin,
suffices for the life I lead
and lifts my soul within.

I brace myself with shaking hands
for when faith will be my breathe.
I must press on
I must endure
because he conquered death.
For who am I
to judge my soul?
to break my being down?
Yet who am I to be a light
that rises from the ground?
I am his child.
I am his heir.
I know I'm not alone.
Even when I'm bruised and weak,
He will guide me home.
