STROKE !!!!!
Lord, what is happening?
I feel so confused, alone.
I awoke this morning, dizzy,
Feelings I have never known.
Lord, I need that coffee,
Wish I could say the word,
No one seems to understand me,
This is getting so absurd !!!!
No, I don't need a doctor,
It's the coffee that I need,
Tears roll, unheeded, from my eyes,
Depression is now my creed.
The music spins within my mind,
I need to run away,
My family's left me far behind,
In this hospital, I must stay.
The words are coming easier,
Yet, I still can't make much sense,
Forgot my only child's birthday,
There must be some recompense.
Babble, jabber, ruminating over
Things I can't control,
I came here with a sound mind,
Now someone stole my soul !!!
Confusion, Lord, Please ease the fog
That's clouding up my brain.
The doctor said the word, "Stroke",
Will I ever be the same????
"Let not your heart be troubled."
"My Peace I give to you."
"My child, Please, don't be afraid,
I'm right here beside you."
And so began that wondrous walk,
With Jesus by my side.
Through a world defined by "Stroke"
He has always been my guide.
Together we delve for memories,
Forgotten, except for the feelings,
The love of family, and friends,
The Lord keeps on revealing.
Together, it's an adventure,
And one I will gladly share,
Come, walk with the Lord and me,
He promises to always be there.
God Bless
and remember.........
YOU ARE LOVED
