ethereal World


I feel stuck,

Like I can’t get out

I feel free

Like I can do anything 

Be anything 

Replicate anything 

Travel anywhere 

 

Let the music get me high 

So high

I feel happy

I feel sad

I can see me walking throughout the city,

Full of people that I no longer know

I can see me feeding animals on a farm,

With crops that no longer grow

I feel warm

I feel cold

The sun, 

Sweat drips from my body

The wind,

Flakes falling from my skin

I feel honored 

I feel in control 

I can see me on the road,

Driving to my latest destination 

I can see me in my dream home,

Reading books, bringing about great imagination 

 

I feel weak

I feel uncomfortable 

 

Seeing what was once mines,

Be someone else’s 

Seeing what’s now mines,

Feel like someone else’s 

 

I am happy

I am sad

I am frustrated 

I am glad

I feel joy

I feel peace

 

As I fly away to Greece,

and now I am away from home..

 

but where is my peace? 

 

Does it come from this world? 

Is this real?

How can I feel so many things at once. 

So intense, so incredibly intense.

 

I feel weak

I am afraid 

 

So I lean on him,

as he waited so patiently for me.

 

Now I know that he is peace,

Peace is within him.

 

Yahweh, alone.
