OUT OF TOUCH OUT OF REALITY

SOMETIMES LIFE JUST GETS TOO HARD TO HANDLE, AND I HAVE COME TO THE POINT OF BREAK.
SO MANY DOCTORS NOW, TO A POINT I CANNOT TAKE.

PROGRESSION IS A NASTY WORD THAT MAKES MY ILLNESS REAL.
I JUST WANT TO GO BACK IN THE DARK WHERE I NO LONGER FEEL..

SO IF I SEEM TO DISAPPEAR OR DON’T TAKE TIME TO WRITE,
YOU’LL KNOW I’M IN THAT DARK SAFE PLACE WHERE IT IS ALWAYS NIGHT.

I ALWAYS AM SURROUNDED BY ANGELS FROM ABOVE.
THEY SHOW ME LIGHT AND LAUGHTER, BUT MOSTLY SHOW ME LOVE.

THEY GUIDE ME DOWN THE PATH, WHERE I’M SUPPOSED TO BE.
TO TAKE THE PATH OR NOT FOLLOW, IS ALWAYS UP TO ME.

MY LIFE AND MY EMOTIONS, I’M IN A STATE I CAN’T DESCRIBE.
THE ANGELS SHOW ME LIGHT AND I STILL WANT TO HIDE.

MY BREATHING IS MUCH HARDER AND TO SWALLOW MAKES ME CHOKE.
DEAR GOD IN HEAVEN, THIS IS NOT A FUNNY JOKE.

THE PAIN OF MUSCLES DYING KEEPS ME FROM GETTING SLEEP,
THEN WHEN I ASK FOR HEALING, ALL I DO IS WEEP.

THEN MY FRIEND LOST HER SON TO DEATH BY SUICIDE.
IT’S SO HORRIFIC, WHAT TRANSPIRED, IN ALL OF YOU I CONFIDE.

I’VE NEVER BEEN ANGRY AT GOD BEFORE, AND DON’T KNOW HOW TO RELEASE,
THE PAIN, THE ANGER, AND MY DESPAIR, WHICH RIGHT NOW NEVER CEASE.

I LOVED TERRY SO MUCH, HE ALWAYS MADE ME SMILE
I CAN’T ACCEPT HIS ABSENCE, I WANT HIM BACK HERE FOR AWHILE.

AND THEN I WANT TO GO TO JOIN HIM, AND REST IN JESUS’ LIGHT.
THE ANGELS TELL ME IT’S NOT TIME YET, I HAVE TO STAY AND FIGHT.

I KNOW I’M HERE FOR A REASON, A PURPOSE TO FULFILL
HOW DO I KNOW MY PURPOSE? HOW DO I KNOW GOD’S WILL?

SO ANGELS THAT PROTECT ME, LET ME FEEL YOUR PRESENCE.
TELL MY GOD I CAN TAKE NO MORE AND I’M SORRY FOR THIS MY
RESISTANCE.

I’D TELL HIM THIS DIRECTLY IF MY ANGER I COULD HIDE.
ALL I HAVE DONE UP TO THIS TIME IS CRIED AND CRIED AND CRIED.

THE SUN THAT’S SETTING SLOWLY IS BUT A GLIMMER OF WHAT’S TO BE.
I KNOW THAT AS I GO ALONG, AN ENDING IS A BEGINNING FOR ME.

    Oh sweet Cynthia, you do have a purpose here, but it is a cruel one it seems.
    If all you ever do is touch one person, the that is what you are called to do and be.
    But you do so much more than that…BELIEVE ME…I KNOW, IT IS TRUE!
    you are like the blind man Jesus healed,
    through your suffering his glory is revealed!!

    You touch so many of us, here on Red Bubble and I know wherever you go and whoever you see, and witness to us of your amazing God/angel-given strength.
    WE are humbled by you. We are blessed by you, by your faith, your persistence, your courage and also your vulnerability…that you are willing and brave enough to not only write this piece, so beautiful and moving, beyond any words, ( though I make a hypocrite of myself as I churn them out!), but are willing to post it here for us to read.

    Cyn, your are blessed and a true blessing!!!
    We all love you and there are many of us who are praying for you as you read this.
    All around the world people are praying for you, as God leads them and calls them into action for you.

    Your final words are so very true. So hold tight to them.

    Jan….........xxxxxxxOOOOOOOOxxxxxxxxxxxxOOOOOOOOOOOOOxxxxxxxxxxxxOOOOOOOOOOOOOxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Hello Cynthia… these words have moved me to the brink of tears, to read what you are living and going through. I’ll not pretend to understand exactly what is happening in your life. Needless to say it is deep and heavy. Please know, though, that you are not alone. Others of us have our trials and tribulations to bear and we all question, at one time or another, “Why me?”. I am sorry I don’t have an answer to this question, I am still looking for it after 22 years of searching without pause or relief. Please know that my love and condolences go to you, along with my prayers and a special part of my heart.

  • Spiritinme replied

    How you have touched my aching heart today, and my question I will share with you is, ” Why not me? ” So many people suffer and I want to help carry His cross, so I thank God on most days for allowing me to do so, but today the cross is just to heavy and I need a little break.It feels so good to know you understand and that you took the time to write. May God bless you always and I am grateful our paths have crossed.

    Hi Cynthia,

    Hope you are feeling some relief or clarity in some way. I too have often got to a point of screaming at God. I some ways I think that this has brought me some relief. I think so many of us suffer in silence that a loss of control in some ways can bring us peace and control.

    Best Wishes Tony.

  • Spiritinme replied

    Thank you Tony. I know you understand and I appreciate you writing. Blessings to you, my friend.

    Hi Cynthia,
    Your writing is so beautiful and filled with will, the will to carry on. It sounds like it is the most difficult thing in the world to do. But for each moment you reach out someone reaches back and stands stronger knowing they are not alone. I’m so sorry you suffer…..I send a prayer on Angels wings…..as I believe in angels as well. Most of all I hope you will continue to write and interact, it may be the only thing that will get you through each day!!
    With warm healing smiles,
    Elizabeth
