Matthew 7:14
14 Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.
All of a sudden here I am with little left to do
What for long appeared a burden now leaves great emptiness
Why was I so blind … why could I not think this through?
Now that you have left me all I feel is loneliness
How can I paint a picture if I can’t find the canvas?
How can I dream of yesterday when time stopped when you left?
I feel like an unused fixture in a room that’s labeled: “Hazard”
Where I am the one who paid and now is totally bereft
Take time to find myself as I am plastered in the familiar
How can I get out if a many a door is all I see?
Are you the one to tell? Is your condition kind of similar?
Don’t you have any doubts? Can’t you let me be?
Jan Wienen
