Shipwreck

 I was lost at sea: could not see me
For the tears that poured from my eyes
Though the lights were made pretty
I was forlorn: such a pity: for the pain
Was so terribly real: no sanction for me
No lighthouse there: neither pier nor jetty
Dear Lord I was distressed: devoid of hope
I’m so sorry Lord I that could not cope
I felt so empty: so down into that nitty gritty
So overwhelmed by my guilt: those tears freely spillled
Like showers; no: more like outpouring torrents
If rain showers are God’s tears then
What hope for me? As I cried and cried: it hurt to be
Alone with my thoughts: like dark rain clouds
Cumulo nimbus on that dark night around me
