Seeking to fill my heart
Began an innocent start
Longing for needs to be filled
Only temporarily thrilled
Chasing after my ideal
Avoiding facing the real
Falling into the snare
Quickly led to despair
Crying "God, are you there?"
Was my desperate prayer
Amazing love rescused me
Paid the price to set me free
Gazing at Calvery's cross
Where Jesus bore my sin and loss
Pursuing me as His own
My Father's love is shown
Capturing my devotion
Healing my emotion
Liberating truth is mine
Freeing me to shine
Declaring to everyone
"Come to the Son!"
Preparing as an eager bride
To forever reign at His side
Another poem. It is from "In Pursuit of the Ideal." What do you think of it?

It's pretty.
I like it - everyone is looking for perfection, for the "ideal" that will satisfy the longing in their soul. Only Jesus satisfies!
