"Reflecting"
  by AzIz


Awake in the early AM
mind
tossin and turnin
reflection of my soul's yearnin
for
rest...
for happiness...
for peace...
a tranquility that seems to evade....teasingly
somedays I capture heavens light like lightening bugs
in my mason jar
other days
its just so far OFF... OFf... off (echoing)
and I'm lost again
trying to understand
why I sometimes lose my grip....
why I
slowly slide down slippery circuitous slopes
til I STOP...
CAUGHT!
suspend-ed,
euphorically high
above all harm
of my insecurities, my impurities...
see he has me elevated
renewing me,
reminding me
that he IS all I need
... so I refocused my reflection
on he who is my sun
Holy one...
Only one...
in control

Mental rapture with the soul held in a state of empowering comfort. Nice scribe, breaks well placed and flow is solid.

Nice... I like the way this unfolds, we all hit rough patches but it's nice when we can catch our selves or better be caught. Beautiul piece.
