When Belonging Becomes A Longing Poem


when belonging becomes a longing 
And the prayers go unanswered?- 
When waiting feels like forever... 
And nothing seems to change.

when questions linger and multiply
and this equation sums no equal...
When time and time again.. 
is the same as yesterday.

when two steps take me  forward but 
 three more reel me back-
 i circle around and around some more
to the where i once began. 

it's there these roots once took hold
It's there and here... and now 
in  anywhere  and every where ..
because Your love; it has no bounds.

while i still don't have thee  answers.. 
this soul follows hard after you.. 
may this small life bring you glory
in the whatever's that i do.
love, leaonmary

Ah friend your eloquent words touch my heart. Just a closer walk with Him and doing my best to stay focused on seeking His presence in the ordinary days is a challenge but I know it is the only way to fill my longing. Hugs!

Thank you friends! I don't know if any of you are familiar with Julia Cameron but she talks alot about writing morning pages. It's kind of amazing how when you just write no matter what or if it makes sense to you... alot of heartfelt words begin to flow.
HOpe yall have a great day... Lea
