nights.

by Lyza

some nights are okay,
	some just pass by right away;
some nights are difficult,
	makes you think if you’re principled;
and some nights need extreme measures,
	a thirst for some uncertain pleasure.

— you may be in love yet not intimate,
	and only with true marriage can mitigate;
Giving beauty to complexity and perplexes,
	you’ll never know what you’ll get until it vexes.

Yet only with the LORD you can do all things,
	defining what dependence and reluctance stings,
To even not seemingly worth it in my human eyes;
	find joy in pain to keep your eyes on the prize, Jesus.
