My Lifeline
by Ariel Douglas (19 February 2016)
Breath
In my lungs
Tears
On my face
Sun
Setting on
All my dreams
Desperate
Crying out
Stranded
No escape
Deserted
On a forsaken island
Alone
On this island
Alone
All alone
But no.
I am not alone
Because I have all I need
No
Not my spirit
Not my will
Not my heart
No.
All I need
Is all I have
My Jesus
Living in me

Me
