SOUTH POLE
Here I am again
Sleeping to dull the pain
Out of wits but at least sane
Unproductive without a gainThey say it is better to be here
Calm and serene, the goal of the year
In a hush-hush without a tear
Even if alone like an isolated mareAs I nose dive in different emotions
I am prepared for the many repercussions
I have back up plans to avoid concussions
But dear Lord, help let go of the divisionsMay I be in one accord
Whole and in You secured
Genuine if not adored
With shining lips in coloredHelp me face each day with vigor
Help me break free from all the rigor
Fill me with love and ardor
And in You I will find a harborThings in this world are but temporary
All will be gone, all shall pass away
But You are solid and You will never sway
Amidst life's difficulties at baySo even if I am in this location
To You I will build my direction
Knowing You'll answer all my supplication
As I undergo life's recreationKeep me grounded and patient Lord
This hurt that I obtained from love's double-edged sword
Will soon be gone and I'll be aboard
To find my life in bright colors and reword16:53-17:19, Wednesday, 033022
