Well, it's been awhile since I posted in here.
And so it comes down to this.
Do I follow the way of the flesh?
Pursuing the temporary, temporal, passing pleasures of a physical life?
A life which I have already learned leads to frustration, anguish, pain
You taught me better by letting me learn on my own
Do I pursue the way of the flesh...living for a short lived moment,
A compliment that never comes, a date that never shows
The subtle slicing insult
Catty coy remarks
The oppressive darkness of the morning after,
The chill in the air, despite the heat,
How low the clouds are in the clear blue sky,
Why does this darkness follow me?
Is this then the path I choose?
The trembling desperation of wanting
And knowing that I shall not have
The hunger, and the denial
Is this the path I choose?
Or
Do I forsake the flesh?
And, like my marriage, let it flow beneath the bridge
Should I let it go and pursue the Cross?
Do I chase the temporary, and give up that which is eternal?
Do I pass up Your gift to me,
A life unblemished, a soul unscarred,
A life eternal
Do I forsake the flesh?
Follow you in faith,
Sure in the knowledge that you will straighten my path
Be my light in the darkness,
That you will be faithful to me, faithful in me
Even though I've never had faith in myself before?
