OCEAN OF LOSTNESS

Jun 17 201421 Oct 2020

I saw it.

Yes, I saw it;

My eyes wide open.

Alas, I lost my virginity.

I ate it; lost my identity.

Now am a man; lost in the

ocean of lostness;

time, urgently ticking on me.

Waves upon waves, beats

my weak back, throws

me off; thy lighthouse.

My addiction to rescue; my

only hope for a better tomorrow.

If you find me today;

throw me a lifeline

before I die another day,

in eternity pain.

The soul is a tender bird. The heart is a brute lion. My home is Christ, My purpose is to redefine the soul of the nations. My language is love. On pilgrim paths, spilling oceans grace on dry places, until hidden seeds germinate, honoring the Ancient One — most&more. View all posts by McDaniels A. Gyamfi

I keep reading this poem back and forth. Yes, I wrote it! But I can hardly take my eyes off the image of lost in the ocean of lostness. The world keep sinking in the ocean of sin. The church keep sinking in the ocean of religion. We all need rescue, one way or the other. Am glad, Jesus saves!!
