Mixed Up
I am so mixed up, all alone
Work is all I do and I want so much more
You were my life but now are gone.
It's not fair how I want to love
Jesus is my Savior, mine forever
He is worthy, always near and above.
But now as I lay here in my bed
I only know one thing and that is pain
I used to feel sexy, loved and now I dread.
I say to my Lord "why am I here?"
Everyone has left me, I have no hand to hold
I have noone to call me honey, baby or dear.
I need many a prayer
I know Jesus has the wheel and always my back
He loves me when I have no man to care.
I am so mixed up, alone and unloved
My world was taken away
When you passed on, my beloved.

Author's Note
It's been almost 5 years since my sweetheart passed away. He loved me so unconditionally and I thought I found someone who would love me but he was very shallow. He is gone now. He doesn't see my value.

This poem beautifully captures the emotional turmoil and longing for love and companionship amidst feelings of loss and abandonment. The juxtaposition of faith in Jesus as a constant source of support and the deep ache for human connection creates a poignant contrast.
The speaker's vulnerability and yearning for affection are palpable, as they grapple with the absence of a loved one and the emptiness that follows. The repetition of feeling "mixed up" emphasizes the confusion and disarray in the speaker's mind and heart.
Despite the pain and loneliness expressed, there's a sense of resilience and reliance on faith to carry them through the darkest moments. The acknowledgment of Jesus as a steadfast presence provides solace and strength in the midst of despair.
Overall, this poem effectively conveys the complexities of grief, longing, and faith, offering a poignant reflection on the human experience of loss and the search for comfort and love.
