Lest I should fall
Zoe Jun 2015
These hands hang down
and my heart droops within;
these feet are tired - my back sags
shouldering so much,
visible and invisible.
Oh Lord, sustain me,
I pray!
Lend me
strength to
continue,
lest I should
fall and not
be able
to get
up.

Peace
Zoe Jun 2015
The
relief I found
is sustaining and freeing.
No longer working
******* tests.
No more
bullies.
Peace.
I now have
obtained it.
Peace, wonderful
peace.

...
So difficult was this year of school.
Glad for a vacation! :) <3

Together?
Zoe Feb 2015
Together,
a word I dislike,
for he has left
and gone.
You made
a promise to me,
yet I'm all alone.
Oh God,
please help
me.*

...
Just thoughts.
A prayer.

Moonlight
Zoe Feb 2015
Large moon,
emanating light
through the thin clouds,
and eerie shadows
cast all around.
Enchanting,
yet all the while
haunting.
Shining all
through the night.
Moon, so large,
rising over all.

...
A lovely moonlit night.
Hope you enjoy! :)

It is all gone
Zoe Nov 2014
Those days,
so long ago now,
that blossomed within
time that seemed to
stand still.
Now it is gone,
and I am
hurt.
You are gone
as well.*

...
Missing people is painful...

Tomorrow

Tomorrow may never come,
So, appreciate this day.

Soon night shall be descending.
All we have is this moment,
Tomorrow may never come.

Something I need to take to heart.

Along the Pathway
Zoe Jan 2014
All along the pathway,
covered in snow and ice;
I walked alone, but I
found God was with me!

I tend to forget this sometimes.

Friends Help
Zoe Jun 2013
The burdens are
difficult to carry
all alone.
With a friend
to help you tote
them, you're
not all
alone.
The burdens
are so much lighter
with a friend to help.
That's what
friends
are
for,
to help each other.

Summer Day
Zoe May 2013
It is so nice, the summer sun
warming up my garden
and my face.
Flowers bloom, as love, all
around me, yet never
including me.
I know that I
shall wait,
and he shall
come some
summer
day.

Dancing through the long hallway

Racing for the arched doorway.

Every day has an ending

Every night has a beginning.
