Waiting

Empty, Drained

On my knees I kneel

Peace, Anger

The things I used to feel

Gone...

Hollow, Tired

Is all that I know

Cold, Numb

It was not always so

Once...

My heart within me burned

My soul within me yearned

I used to run the race

Then slowed to a steady pace

Now I seem to have stopped in a rut

I almost settle for the ordinary but...

Quiet, Loud

A whispered shout

Insistent, Gentle

Reminds what this is all about

Lord,

Empty, Drained

A realization grew

Waiting, Knowing

That now there is room for You.

"They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength..."
