And I Hear

And I hear…

silence.

Bits of pieces of the peace

that I knew,

when I knew You

What moved You to passion

for me

All hope, all promise –

snuggly wrapped in destiny

Afraid to lose You, while afraid to move through

the path I dare to run to – -

but You knew, and know

– I am scared to go.

Tired of You recharging me,

then losing steam

Until you beckon me – - again

And again – for the billionth time

… but I can’t run from You

It hurts when I hurt You – burn You

In my heart, pin You

Back on the cross ~ the nails go through…

SPEAK, so I can hear. Obey,

instead of fear. So Your truth

will be in me, on my tongue…

i’m def a fan. there is one thing to read it and get it. it’s another thing to read it and feel like you can exhale because the words you needed to convey what you feel have finally been discovered.
