Tearing Apart Already?

Why are you tearing apart
So easily
When you're the first in which
I've scribbled so much?

Is a little less than four years
Already tiring you?
Or is it my ink and graphite
That's too heavy
For your thin pages to hold?

The pages that could make
Any gel pen or highlighter
Bleed through.
The pages that are so thin,
I could see the ink of the
Next page, if I tried enough.

But is staying with me,
Staying intact, for a few more
Years, a little too much
To ask for?
Is your aging faster
Than mine?

Probably. Because what you
Hold inside is so deep
And so profound and so enchanting.
And may be every finger-touch
Robs off a little of your
Youthfulness.
That look you had
When I first saw you.

But still, dear Bible,
Is staying intact
For a few more years
A little too much
To ask for?

  2. Wow - I was thinking something else at the beginning while reading but then when I saw the Bible - I was like oh wow!
    It's cool to read such poems - I also had written a poem titled "Christianity in America" for high school that was moving too

About the Hillsong Peace Music Video - Rant

On the 2 nd of March 2018, Hillsong Young and Free released their first music video  that spoke of the issue of mental health which clearly wasn’t the type of video you would expect to see on a Christian Music channel. While I found the song to be extremely soothing, with the hate and false alarms being triggered around the video being dark, cultic (which I heard a little too much) or displaying creepy ghosts and bloody rain (laugh, if you like) I thought I’d break down portions of the video and explain it because oddly enough I’ve seen too many response videos and read too many articles and comments of people over-analysing the symbols on the video instead of receiving the message of God’s peace especially for those who struggle with anxiety on a mental health level. “I think for a really long time I didn’t understand what anxiety is. When I look back at my whole life I feel like I can see traces of this for as long as I can remember but it wasn’t diagnosed until I ...

My Journey Exploring the Theory of Evolution

  (Prologue) What could be my stance on evolution? This was something I repeatedly wanted to address but I was usually unsure if it would find relevance on my blog. Firstly, because I’m not a theologian. And secondly because I just thought most people were way past that. For some reason I assumed this was not an argument among Christians anymore (wow, I know, my ignorance) and we’ve moved onto weightier issues. However, that is really not the case. I have seen people both within and outside the scientific community that think evolution is some sort of a tale or a conspiracy theory, sometimes even having “scientific” theories of their disapproval of the same. So here it goes!   During my days in school, I, like every other child, thought that evolution was simply a theory supported by loosely based facts and wasn’t something I should be too bothered about as a good Christian kid. I genuinely believed that Darwin and the rest of the evolutionists only wanted to have a go...

PEACEFUL

  Let my love for you be peaceful. I do not want it to shatter your glass ceilings or roar oceans worth of might. I want it to knock you, peacefully. Almost like you wanted it.  I do not want it to brush against your cold, numb fingers. No. I will stay away. I have better things to do. But I want it to yearn for me. So everytime we meet, I will stir in you something that will look forward for me. And you will wait for them - those encounters- one heartbeat after another.  You will wait for them as you slowly unveil your stone heart and show me it was the stone-coloured sky. And your clouds were full and waiting to pour. But truly, they were waiting for me all along. And so I let them weep. They bursted open and drenched both you and I.  I found a shelter for both of us so you wouldn't fall sick. I made sure you ate so we wouldn't tire ourselves. I kept you safe. I kept you warm. And out of you came everything that was once dormant. I told you, my love for you would b...
