The I of the Old

My life is no longer about the world and its subsequent-imaginary art But about me, as a vessel and how God has comforted my heart I’m no longer drowning from the profoundest void of my desperation I came out with a new spirit; born to this… A brand new creation I’m no longer the man I used to be; but re-drawn onto a different mold The “I” of the old became just a memory; of my alter-ego’s… Gold If you can only see me now, you’ll see the hunger bursting; all over my face Like a great fire burning at the very core, of my soul; nothing else can replace Just as if, watching the eye of a needle, inside a riddle; watching a giant storm And then suddenly, here comes the thunder, shrieking with his lightning arm As far as how spiritually, my soul and I can be, our journey has just begun But at least we already know the way and truth; that’s in God’s only son I am telling you the truth, I am as alive as I will ever be; no longer a dreamer For my heart and mind is now at faith with Jesus; my one and only, redeemer By: Wilbert Dela Cruz 5/3/17
