A Savior

My spirit is on a low
I feel sickness in my bones
Ones from regret and unanswerable pride
Something to match the tears that shed when the eyes fall down
Nothing to find that conquers the self made decision
to fall
To fall by oneself and no other is a deceit against the soul
To have no other means of reciprocation but soulful terror and loss
Nothing is worth fighting for
Nothing is worth living for if you haven't a Savior
Nothing is worth accomplishing if you only use the time after to delve deeper into despair
This time was different, it was more regretful than any I have encounter since then
It was damning, it was all me
Satan didn't need to prod or pick at my thoughts
all he did was sit back and watch
He is a cunning one, slowly delving into the hearts of man
bringing out the wroth in them
Watch your every step for you will see him waiting behind every corner
Every tree, Every living thing that is good he has a second thought that can deceive
Watch your step especially the footprints
Help meld them into one by clinging to Christ and begging him
to carry you
Only then will you find true happiness and be torn and saved from the grips of hell
Only then will you find peace and joy for the son of perdition will be gone
"Leave him behind and do not look back, fear not little flock
for I will be on your right hand and on your left to lift you up
when you have been knocked down
whether it be of your own accord or the tempting of Satan,"
there is always room for a Savior, all you have to do is let me in
Let him in is as simple as taking a breath, you must take the breath to take the next step
with Him.
