The song of my heart silently sings 

While I deprive it of its songs

Its desire to yell out into the heavens all her praises

I silence it and keep it hidden 

It sings a soft song like a shy purr

Its calling is heart wrenching  to hear

As it looks for its owners approval 

She sings softly to herself 

Comforting her desires to be loved

Her songs slips into longing cries

She wails into the night

Echoing through the city 

The deep sky absorbs it all

The stars dance for her song 

And the wind jitters with delight 

The trees follow along with her tunes

Creating an orchestra that encamps around her

She is full of hope 

She will sing her songs without shame

Yeah, 

Without shame does she pour out her love

No one will keep her silent

“Be filled with the Spirit: Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart for the lord;” Ephesians 5:19-20


Recently I fell upon this verse while reading Ephesians. I had the verse highlighted in my book and it reminded me of my poem. At the time of the poem I felt I was lacking the connection singing gives me and it felt like a grieving cat, because I don’t sing as much anymore. My heart burst with songs that are full of praise and hope.

Thanks for reading!
