What is Happiness? A Poem

25th November 2019NickyLessons of Life, Life & Love, Poems, The Way

What is Happiness?

 

God, I implore you to take these burdens from me

I beg and plead for you to end the pain

Take it all away from me, far far away

Why do you not answer my cry for help?

A silence so loud that even the deaf can hear it

 

My eyes are lowly and drawn

My lips are dry and cracked

My head is bowed and heavy

My heart is bruised and beaten

 

I fall to my knees, there is no rescue

Nowhere to turn to from this deep blue

The only way is through, right through

Until the blue turns into a lighter hue

As is in nature, the river has to run

 

A flash of faith flickers within

A portion of your great love finding lodgement in my soul from times past

Calls for me to surrender, to trust

To take me to a destination foreign, long ago covered in dust

 

Bestow upon me the vision to see what you see

The courage to speak what you whisper

The strength to raise my head up high when the world wishes to hold it down

And a heart redeemed, transformed made entirely of your own

 

Father, may your white wings of grace carry me to that place promised to us all

In the eloquent words of the Master, a place of many mansions, a kingdom, a heaven

Where there is more than enough room

For the ninety nine plus this one more

 

When I arrive home, I will be happy

With the knowledge that I have been born anew

But my feet are restless, many mansions still empty

Neighbours not by my side, yet to come through

 

God, please let me return from where I just came,

So that I can find my neighbours, my fellow brothers and sisters

And safely bring them home

 

I ask but what is happiness if it cannot be shared?

You smile back at me and say

My child, here is the lamp
