Where Is It?

God, I have a question for you.

Is there a big lesson here

Or some sort of blessing

Deep in these floods of tears?


Is it hidden behind

All the raging storm clouds,

Or is it within the quiet

Echoes of my house?


Is it in the midst of the thoughts

That feel like a deep sea?

Is it in the middle of the fog 

That spreads feelings of anxiety?


Is it up in the mountains,

Where heaven's up in the sky?

Is it within the days

That blur and pass us by?


Did Noah feel like this

When he was on the Ark?

Was he trying to find a piece of bliss

In the ever-growing dark?


God, I don't want my hope to die completely,

And I know there are things that only You know,

So could you tell me when I'm ready?

Please?


Okay, maybe I had multiple questions,

But can You blame me?

It's You that I'm connecting

With, and You're universal mystery.


But I do know you're right here and everywhere,

And You'll never leave me.
