Alone With You- Poem

The music of daylight draws to a close
A soft wind blows
The cool cement against my back
All is deep black
The warm night pressing from all sides
I close my eyes and hear your voice that guides me
Jesus, I’m alone with you
Things I could never put into words flood my heart
The stars and the moon shine above
Constant reminders of your love
All the distractions that pull on my mind fade from view
Jesus when I’m here alone with you
The call of the crickets mingle with my prayers
Here in the darkness, I’m not forgotten
I feel your presence, the touch of your love
The peace and trust I have in you calms my restless soul
I’ve been restored and am whole
