Chains Around the Heart
by lynn gipson Chains around the heart not letting go Of yesterday's pain from what we have sown Reaping sorrow from past deadly sins Clinging to memories of where we've been Chains around the heart keeping us safe From more heartache, suffering and pain Suffocating our feelings until they die Delaying life's horrors from making us cry Chains around the heart keep Jesus out So we cannot learn what His love is about Sinking so far into that deep, black void Unable to reach out to our Savior and Lord Chains around our heart diminish our lives Satan can reach us with deplorable lies If only we knew what we do to ourselves Each link of the chain only leads us to hell I am a 61 year cancer survivor just recently become a writer. I write short stories, articles and poems of Christian or Spritual nature. Article Source: http://www.faithwriters.com |
