Soiled - Guilt

Soiled

 

My heart, what happened to you?

From the inside you look

dark and dirty.

 

Year in and year out

I have soiled you more and more.

 

All the dirty thoughts

that all too often

lead to dirty actions.

 

Nasty words,

hurts and mean statements

have left their marks on my heart.

 

Now my conscience is accusing me,

my heart screams loudly

for I have not kept it pure.

 

More and more I am lacking

the joy in life.

No distraction lasts long enough

to silence my screaming heart.

 

In order to hide my dirt

I have put on many masks

and have become quite the skilled actor.

 

But when I am honest with myself

I feel like crying

because my heart has become

hard like a stone.

 

Life has lost its beauty.

My joys do not last

and what remains

is emptiness and dirt.

 

Oh how much I would

like to have a fresh start

and change everything.

 

I totally underestimated

how important honesty is.

I never thought about

how much of a healing effect

good words have.


For a long time I did not care

how beneficial good thoughts are.

 

It was not important for me

that I should have worked

on all those points from the beginning.

 

Oh God, what did I make of myself?

What do YOU think of me now?

 

I cannot stand before YOU,

and depend upon YOUR mercy

and YOUR grace towards me.

I come to you

with the plea of forgiveness.

 

Cleanse me,

heal me,

lead me

and help me

to walk on new and right paths.

Ezekiel 36:26-27 (The Israel Bible)

And I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit into you: I will remove the heart of stone from your body and give you a heart of flesh; 27 and I will put My spirit into you. Thus I will cause you to follow My laws and faithfully to observe My rules.

The second problem - PTSD (Post-traumatic stress disorder)

The second problem I have a problem, or so I thought for a long time. Something bothered me immensely. Whether it was: suffering, illness,  injustice, bullying, abuse, loss, or anything else that threw me off track, what's certain is that the pain of it was etched into my mind. I got incredibly upset about it, simmered with anger and resentment, shrouded myself in self-pity and depression, occupied myself with all sorts of distractions, and did all sorts of things to try and get rid of the pain. Soon I realized that the thought about my problem had become lodged inside me, like a bird that has built a nest  in my tree. I'm starting to brood over the negative feelings. Day and night, they give me no peace. I'm getting so worked up about this terrible situation that I'm constantly preoccupied with all sorts of possible and even impossible scenarios. Soon, I'm experiencing increasing difficulty concentrating. Coping with everyday tasks becomes more and m...

Information about the posts in March 2026

All posts posted in March 2026 have a specific order to them. I have placed them in 3 different categories: 1. The Problems 2. The Considerations 3. The Solutions Posts, that will be posted after March 2026 do not have this order, but will be posted randomly only sorted by the time they were posted. It is my hope, that the reader realizes, that he/she is not the only one struggling with a certain problem. I have spent much effort going into the depth of each problem with the hope that the reader can identify with it. Over time I have come to realize that the way we react to problems in principle is timeless. We all get stuck with the same or similar reactions. At the beginning those reactions are rather unproductive or even destructive.  It is my goal to not only honestly write about different problems, but also give the reader, who is seeking solutions good thoughts to consider. I do wish for each reader to read the lyrics with an open mind and contemplate what is wr...

When the soul cries out - Emotional pain

When the soul cries out   When the soul cries out then the head is full with pain. When the soul cries out then it is obvious that you cannot concentrate. When the soul cries out then the everyday routines become difficult. When the soul cries out then any contacts with the outside world become more and more difficult. When the soul cries out then you become more impatient with yourself and others. When the soul cries out then you need a lot of love and comfort  in order to heal again.     (1606121555-1912,1706120737-0747)     Psalm 147:3 (The Israel Bible) He heals their broken hearts, and binds up their wounds.
