My Tanka Journal

January

1. You begun it all,
From the start it was all You,
You knew it all too,
And created me like You,
You are in and through me now.

2. Idols in my heart,
Other gods replacing You,
But now You are there,
You are my only true God,
And forever You will stay.

3. You are in my heart,
Your everything I know now,
Never to apart,
Your always there inside me,
I will never let You go.

4. You are the fire,
I am the candle stick wick,
Together we burn,
Warm as the sun shining bright,
Never to go out in me.

5. You are all I want,
Nothing else will do for me,
You are all I need,
Every moment of this life,
You are living in me now.

6. Peaceful Sun shine bright,
Ease through me like You know how,
You are the Sunlight,
Burning in my very soul,
You are warming everyone.

7. You are who I am,
One who believes in a Love,
That no eye can see,
But I know You are with me,
Living in this moment now.

8. Love, what does this mean?
People use it so often,
I'm really confused,
But really what is this about?
Can You be the real meaning?

9. Deeper then I know,
there is this thing inside me,
Is there an answer?
I've questioned for so so long,
But You are really it now.

Here is another way I write in my journal now.

10. Beloved, be still,
surrendering all you are,
wanting only Me,
willing to only My voice,
feeling more then you dreamed of.

11. You, and nothing more.
Can words express knowing You?
or
What is life to be near You?
I choose only You.
I believe in You my Love.
Child like faith in You now.
