  A Safe Haven

User Rating:

10.0 /10

  There are times when I feel like I'm adrift out at sea;
Where I'm floating upon life's troubled waters;
And then just in time you're there to rescue me,
Leaving me to wonder why you even bother,
But your constant love is like a beacon in plain sight;
That keeps me safe through life's many storms,
Ever present you shine your light both day & night,
Whenever my fears & doubts would consume & leave my soul all torn,
Your strength bridges over all empty space
Where I could possibly stray,
Then I'm no longer frozen in time, but dwell now in a secure place;
Because you have given me a Safe Haven, where I shall forever stay.

I like this one a lot.....
'Because you have created a Safe Haven, where I'll forever stay'
I would have thought about this
Because you have given us a Safe Haven, where I shall forever stay

They are only my thoughts, i still think what you have written is graceful and elegant!
