A Constant Help (In My Life)

You are the crutch upon which I lean,
the glorious light that returned the joy
that my soul had lost,
building a bridge of love within my heart
where only a deep dark chasm had blocked my way.
  You have lit a warm comforting fire within my cold soul,
with your comforting compassionate words of hope,
giving me encouragement to carry on the fight,
building within me a strong fortress against
the mortal enemies of my soul's fountain of joy.
  You have opened the door to my deep seated emotions
that once were closed by unease and uncertainty,
eased my mortal fears when I felt hopeless and afraid,
and left feeling lost and alone in this cruel world,
becoming my safe refuge in times of trouble and travail.
  You returned passion and desire to my listless life,
gave me a new direction and a better plan,
rebuilt the fire in my soul and became the anchor
that holds me steady upon the rocky seas of this earthly life,
you have become my buckler and shield the armor that keeps me safe,
from the fiery arrows of unrest and pain,
it was you that bound the deep painful wounds of my heart and soul,
with the bandages of love and compassion.
  You have lifted me to new heights of temporal joy,
wiped away the bitter tears of regret,
renewed the joy to my wounded weeping mind,
removed the knife that had been thrust deeply within my heart,
carried my listless soul to new and better heights of jubilation,
and returned my long lost self esteem with your sweet love.
  You have patched up this broken man with compassion,
given him a reason at last to live and love once again,
returning hope,passion, and the desire to succeed,
and taught me how to overcome all adversity,
if only I shall stand strong against the weapons brought to bear upon my heart and soul and lean upon you.
Donavon Scott Vinson

A semi Christian poem. It is one about leaning upon one's lover with the duality of leaning upon God above for support,sustenance and joy.
