Empty Heart, Diminishing Soul
Empty heart
Diminishing soul
This crack in my heart
Where my faith seeps
Emptying slowly
Gradually
I feel the tears come
I fear them well
As I stand beside the crowd
Set aside I try to hide
I fight the coming tears
Yet still I try to hide
But I sing how I can
Maybe quiet and withdrawn
But I praise with what I have left
Even with this emptying heart
All the faith I still hold
I put into those few words
Now I write of how I feel
On the edge of silent tears
Still hoping this will turn
This emptiness will be filled
And I will feel again
An emotion other than emptiness
A feeling other than solitude
For now Iβll sing as I can
With just what I have left
Fighting tears beside the crowd
Hoping never to be seen
Here but all alone
Where my diminished soul
Leads me to be
Hmmm this is deep…praying for you my brother don’t give up the good fight! God is with you and He has your back! Many blessings! β€
