Plea-se

Revelation 3:16 

16 So then, because you are lukewarm and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth.

 

I ask for a little water and you made me feel guilty

I begged for understanding and you just gave me a look

Your emptiness embraced me and made me feel filthy

The day started with uncertainty and now shows its proof

 

I do not want too much of life ... only a peaceful death

No show of appreciation just a word said: “Well done”

This means more than anything to know the Master left

an imprint of Himself on me now the temporal is gone

 

It is not what I take with me, but what I leave behind

Famous names of yesterday are now long forgotten

Here and there some pictures for the interested to find

As most don’t care at all appearing full of ill-begotten

 

If I had some love I could fill the heart of others

Not to be recognized through the cries of the cares of life

But it is still the substance that will strengthen others

To be passed on again in this creation to survive

 

All will be done away with except love that is

The only treasure recognized by God the Father

Maybe all in all the purpose of this gift

Is the only thing that matters so the rest is no bother

 

Fortunately, the Son shines brighter each day

Expectantly He wants to fill our hearts with Him

To deliver us from death towards His Eternal Way

Unconditionally in Truth, as this is only Him
