My heart is on litmus!

yet another Christmas
my heart is on litmus
blinded by the lights
I see only darkness
stooping under sins
I am crushed by the cross
shackles of guilt
dragging my feet
bleeding from the brain
ego weaving a thorny crown
words whipping the back
my raw skin is burning
with a tear-soaked soul
with a trembling hand
I stand here, lost in the crowd
I don’t know where to go
where are you, Jesus?
I am not going home
I cannot face their eyes
too many broken promises
too many heartbreaks
my empty pockets are already torn
even the shillings hated them
this festive season, all this glitter
I just want to hide somewhere
this cross is too heavy for me
my mind is blank
I am walking dead
clasping my hands
I fall to the knees
still feeling grateful
for this very living moment
where are you, Jesus?

yet another Christmas
my heart is on litmus.

To all those daddies who are going through a tough time during this festive season as they scramble to find the money for that special Christmas gift.
