    Poems by Josephine Zavala-Florez

  • Chambers Of My Heart

    I remember my sister calling me to put the television on. When I did, I witnessed a plane crashing into the World Trade Center. Having two small children at the time, and the thought of them being potentially harmed, scared me to my core. I prayed for God's protection and mercy for everyone. Life suddenly felt so fragile. My faith was challenged as anxiety and fear gripped me when I tried making sense of everything that was going on. I wrote this poem during this painful and disturbing time.

    It's dark within the chambers of my heart.
    I am losing hope each passing day.
    I reach for your hand, but it's so dark.
    I need your light to guide my way.

  • Lost In Emotion

    • Published: April 2018

    in Faith Poems

    Sometimes I feel lost in a maze of emotions,
    where every direction feels like a dead-end street.
    I feel so alone in my search for an answer
    that I start to blame God for not meeting my needs.
