Feelings

Feelings,
Oh so powerful,
and just as the flowers fall,
just as the seasons fade,
so do they.

We search long and hard,
we even stretch that final yard,
just to feel.
To conceal the love and emotion we so long for,
the love that others die for.

But is it worth it?
To risk everything for it?
Just so we can forfeit in the end,
when we don't win.
When we can't feel God anymore,
when you realize that feeling you longed for was just a season.
That had purpose and reason.
But it was only a season.

Which is why you should have reason to praise him.
When things are dim,
when grace seems thin,
when you just can't win,
because you're on the rem,
on the thin line between victory and defeat,
that's invisible that seems to be un-beat.

But just as the flowers fall,
so spring becomes fall.
And the feelings back.

But do not re-track.
Remember that seasons don't stay,
they go away just as quick as they came.
But don't re-track,
don't go back to ONLY a feeling,
only reeling into God because it feels good.

But remember the cross,
the cost,
the loss,
the lost,
and remember,
it's not about feeling.
