Call on Heaven

Dami Owoyele
Here I am calling on Heaven

With a thin voice piercing through

The vast mist of a cloudy sky.

Here I am battling the waves of turmoil

With a frail strength striving to stay afloat

Like a weary child.

Here I am in the heat of a desert,

Deserted of all protections

As I fight the wild.

Here I am in the pitch dark

Searching for a light

To lead me right.

Here I am lost to the sea of chaos,

Puzzled to my spirit

And asking why.

I am here calling on Heaven

Hopeful that He shows me mercy

And I stay alive.

    Powerful poem. Sometimes a call on heaven is what we need to do first before trying to lean on our own understanding. Great work.
