The Struggle


You wake up 

There is not light 

darkness takes over your sight 

There's something missing it's just not right 

 

The room is empty yet so full 

You reach for your phone. HA 

Like someone cared to call or text you since you put your phone down 

You look up. You mad? 

No one cares... 

 

What are you missing?

Your keys? Your money? Your phone? 

Oh I know purpose 

Oh wait maybe passion

Nope LOVE 

 

At work there is no love 

The gym there is no love 

Class no love 

Food? No love 

God? Oh there is LOVE 

 

True LOVE that never fails 

But you can't reach it 

 

You yearn for his love 

 You yearn for His LOVE 

His True LOVE 

His UNCONDITIONAL LOVE! 

 

Oh love that's so easy to find 

I have found it a thousand times 

This LOVE is hard to find. 

Oh crap I'm late for work 

I'll find LOVE some other time...
