Poem, ‘The Drifting Arks of the Hearts of Men”

By: Eric Gajewski

From the work, “Fortress of the Soul”

This is the latest poem from the work “Fortress of the Soul”. I hope you enjoy it and share it. Long live Christ our King.

Please play the video below and listen as you read the poem

Uponst thy warm summer shores, I once knewest Thee

Thine Divine Face ever so clear

Beating in reflection uponst thy Waters

But it wast in the Writing, that I wouldst leave

Having headed for my own ark, I didst part

Drifting along aimlessly, thinking to be “free”

By self’s haughty way of “liberty”

In great irony I wast held captive in prison

On my own ark called Tyranny

Finding no rest, so far from thy Sacred Heart

I sawest the Storms of sin further creeping

I wast thence pulled out more deeply by my own fault

This tendency of nature sought to pull me under completely, so overpowering

Now thirsting and without sail I turnest to thy shores yet again

Pleading Mercy! Mercy! Mercy! I didst cry

With tears withheld which only added to my misery

Until Thy hidden Love arose silently so as to guide me

In the gentle flow below of Thy unseen Tide

Which straightened out my path back unto Thee interiorly

For where Ye art my heart wast designed alone to be

Now safely following thy Will’s Footprints

Along this shore I call home with Mary, this Sea Galilee

With goal alone to please and see my Beloved smiling

Alas! Two hearts mystically united so perfectly

How silly! For these chambers within could not beat, there would be no stability

This heart of mine without Thee wouldst only vainly bleed

But whilst we resist, whilst we still wage war with thy Will

Thou wouldst, on the contrary, in Charity, only seekest to fill

For how often we fight so ignorantly against our hearts only Source and End

O’ Lord, how foolish we art!

In this scene which I see perpetually and which now my mind is painting

Called the drifting Arks of the hearts of men…

‘If you desire heaven, you must walk in the way which leads to heaven; if you should walk in the way which leads to hell, you will one day unhappily find yourself there.’

St. Alphonsus Maria de Liguori

‘Now although man is created for the possession of happiness, yet, having deviated from his true end, his nature has become deformed and is entirely repugnant to true beatitude. And on this account we are forced to submit to God this depraved nature of ours which fills our understanding with so many occupations, and causes us to deviate from the true path, in order that he may entirely consume it until nothing remains there but himself; otherwise the soul could never attain stability nor repose, for she was created for no other end.’

St. Catherine of Genoa
