And as I was this Day
By Sarah Faithy, Early to mid 2005
Note: Have you noticed by now that I write when I've gone through a hard time or I AM?  But note how not a single one has a lack of hope in them.  You come out stronger in the end...and more radient some how.
Here I stand in happy gaze, the days are far not few
The sun is in my best, and the leaves, they're for me too.
The clouds, they swell with joyous pride, embracing light-heart phase
and as I was this day, my soul strains to seek Your face.

A day and two I sat therein, as it weeped outside
convinced was I, the clouds exposed what hid behind my eyes.
wretched was the world I saw, through my welled up tears
mangled in my disposition, I thus gave you my cares.

Hitherto I fight myself - that is, besides my foe.
for verbal deeds will nay get done, lest action be bestowed.
My will - the flesh.  Stubborn, must die, sumbmitting to it's place
though battered for severe mistakes, my soul was given grace.

Emerged - I did.  the Sun was gray, as I beckoned forth.
My frame - cloaked in humility - my heart the brightest source.
For therein dwelt my love, my God, to which all else grows dim.
And though victory be mine that day, my soul, it dwells in Him.
