(poems go here) Restored
By: Kayla Logan
9/8/12

Once more I ask how is it that I can be restored,
It seems I have done all but ask in the Lord.

You think that is where I would start but not so,
To the Bible, work, and others I chose to go.

However, I don’t want to be there anymore,
I want my life for God to take flight and soar.

It’s not that I have been living a lie but rather,
I have been living a life without feeling I gather.

I don’t want this though and so help I seek,
To help me learn how to feel, and be meek.

This task will certainly be what is best,
Even though it will not be the easiest of test.

To imagine the unfathomable and have to go back,
To that place where I chose to lose track.

That place where I made the conscious choice,
To put down my own feelings and my own voice.

The place of the greatest hurt and sorrow,
Where I chose to no longer feel tomorrow.

True I did not fully understand what I made,
Yet, years without joy and love I have laid.

Hard work now will get me there to the place,
Where I can live fully for God and live the race.

I will not have to live a life of fear any loner,
Because God alone He can make me stronger.

To feel not for myself, but for God,
Will only let His smile, to me nod.

God wants me to be happy and restored,
And I know that in my life love has soared.

So I will do the hard thing that which is right,
I will do it and I will start this very night.

Seek the answers through Christ alone,
So in me His glory can be shown.

To be restored by God above,
Will be the greatest of His love.
