The Captain of my Soul

A shadorma poem

What happened

to the solid ground

beneath me?

Emotion-

with strength like a tsunami

pulls me to the deep.

Will I sink

to the bottom of

cold abyss?

Distraction-

like rope from a rescue ship

draws me closer in.

Can I break

away from this dark

endless sea?

Devotion-

like waves washing over me

moves effortlessly.

Who am I

that You would save my

shipwrecked soul?

Redemption-

like a light house on a coast

has led me back home.
