Messed up.
Tore up.
Jacked up.
Crazy!
Upside down.
Turned around.
Mind blown.
Thoughts, hazy!
Life crashes.
Dreams smashes.
Walls cave.
Crumbled messes!
Hope gone.
Pressure on.
What now?
Lord blesses!
Picked up.
Restored again.
Enemies –
God smashes!
Joy back.
Despair sacked.
Exchanged now,
Beauty for ashes!
“To give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness . . .,” Isaiah 61:3
