Focused On God Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Having no lace to go when being in the ebony darkness of
hopeless despair, holding onto the hope and faith I was
born with.

Giving self to our Lord to take away my fears or doubts
that may be taunting my spirit, staying alert and moving
into the wake of mourning.

Head bowed, hands clasped in prayer, mind focused on God
only, walking into the future alone, safe and treasured
by God, knowing my life is being protected completely.
