The Missing Pieces
By: Adrielle R. Bollin
I'm searching out an answer Yet drifting like a feather on a lake
I've got pieces of the puzzle But no idea what it'll make
My heart desires completion While my mind runs round and round
The picture isn't clear yet So I watch without a sound
I take in what I see Both present and the past
Looking at the patterns Wondering how they last
I can see the connections Each instance and it's task
But not the reasons why Nor the name behind the mask
It is an aria without sound A drum without a beat
It's presence ever haunting Yet just visible like summer's heat
Oh give me back discernment Oh Master of the sky
Open up my hollow vision To see where my enemy lies
Guide me to missing pieces Make the picture sing
Come close enough to feel you So I'll hear your whispering
And when I the fog lifts away Help me then to choose
Lift the weights that paralyze And free me from my cemented shoes
Elijah Bossenbroek - This has got to be my new favorite artist - Amazing talent!
Beautiful! "Lift the weights that paralyze And free me from my cemented shoes" is my favorite line - that pretty much sums it.
ReplyDeleteMy problem is that I feel like a feather on the ocean with a rock tied to it in the middle of a storm. And I often wonder if anything is ever clear.
The video is beautiful!
Thanks, sweetie for all the wonderful visits and comments. Hope you're having a lovely weekend.

I suspect that one shouldn't capture a single line from a poem, but 'My heart desires completion While my mind runs round and round' struck a chord with me.
ReplyDeleteAgain, you slice through life's clutter and capture the heart. You're special.
This is so wonderful! The line I most related to is "Oh give me back discernment Oh Master of the sky
