Flesh in thought


Ecclesiastes 5:7 

Just as there is futility in many dreams,
so also in many words. Therefore, fear God!

 

Hope

 

Now I see you clearly ... a shadow in the fog

Looking in the mirror you seem to be a ghost

Simply like a picture plastered on a billboard

only triggering thoughts of want ... a copy of just most

 

I lived with you I know… as long as I remember

Always you were in the way to limit all my dreams

One day I will shed you and you will turn to dust

or wherever you came from ... mostly darkness it seems

 

Will I go with you then or go another way?

Will I travel to the light that I so hunger for?

The answer in the Son of God explains a brighter day

that speaks of Eternal Bliss for which I am dying for
