Still Small Voice

by fogglethorpe

Don't want to run from the one I love
I'd rather set my mind on things above
Human nature says go astray
But it's in me and I can't get away

From your still small voice
Like a quiet urging
I have no choice
But the gentle purging
Of all the things
That keep us apart
When your still small voice
Thunders in my heart

Don't want to go where I don't belong
I'd rather choose the right and shun the wrong
Don't want to lose what's rightfully mine
Help me keep this branch on the vine

With your still small voice
Like a quiet urging
I have no choice
But the gentle purging
Of all the things
That keep us apart
When your still small voice
Thunders in my heart

Don't want to wander 'round aimlessly
Your holy radar is leading me

It's your still small voice
Like a quiet urging
I have no choice
But the gentle purging
Of all the things
That keep us apart
When your still small voice
Thunders in my heart

Agree with Rondo, love and spiritual feels intermingles.
Mesmerizing!
warm wishes,
D.

    D..a humble thanks. I think there is something romantic about one's relationship with God.

Thunders in my heart really strikes a cord with me. That still small voice was magnified in this piece. Good write. Thank you.

I love the poem in general from the way it flows to the gentle rhyming scheme. This is beautifully constructed and a joy to read.
