Beyond The Bitter Brew

(If you happen to stumble upon any other versions of this song—of which I made three—please let me know in the comments which one you like the most... I liked them all so much that it was impossible to choose 😓)


Groaning,
I rose as the east burned red
Peeking out at the world through a skull-throbbed head

Coffee steam swirls,
a thought-filled shroud
The bitter brew bears the storm-laden cloud

Life's tangled threads,
twisting in its depths
Will this day bring burdens,
or long-awaited breaths?

Suddenly, beyond the pane,
I see God explain!

A flash of feathered delight
A nest I spy,
my heavy thoughts take flight



Yes, with just one seed,
a feathered soul
He bursts with song,
his heart made whole!
