Children Of The Universe

no more than
angels
in training

Complicated individuals

Sinners
yet a chosen people

Heaven's elect
taking on human form

Living

Grasping at life lessons to remember

Holding on to intangibles I knowingly
should forget

I swim fiercely
in pools of memories

recollections

history

with little hope
for what tomorrow can bring

getting lost in yesterdays

while God sees so far in front of me
deciphering for me

advocating on my behalf

hoping
that I can find Heaven
somewhere in my travels
in my hearts
while I'm still here

The world is so big
yet so small

Our lives are intricately connected
by tiny threads of time

Strung across miles
of tears,
joy
and pain

I am so glad
that when I fall down

and, if the sun above
refuses to shine

I don't have to stay down....

He makes it possible
through grace

that I can rise again!
