Poetry: Returning to God

"Broken Chains"

It's like I'm falling fast
Into a world full of shame
And even if my heart gets broke
To you it's just another game.

I'm stumbling around this room
Trying to find the light
But you want me to fall again
So you cover my eyes of sight.

I'm determined to get out
No matter what the price may be
Because these chains are getting heavy
And my soul wants to be set free.

I lift my eyes to the Almighty
And ask for riddance of all the fake
A flash of lightning crossed the room
As the chains began to break.

The walls around me started to crumble
As a wind swept through the land
Reminding me I'm never alone
And will always have a guiding hand.

    This is the first day of the rest of my life.
    Many years were spent as a mother and a wife.

    I Feast With Pigs

    I feast among the sow and dung
    On scraps of desperation.
    Abandoned Father's house of love
    To be my own
