draining, habitual (bad)
life lessons abound
learning light
Taking a little time to slow the march and
Cool the tempo and calm the mind
Reaching into center to find what is here
To learn how to soften the edge of fight and fear
Standing on the lively shore of life to
Watch the ripples of change go out to
Watch the tides of change come in
To learn how to silence this ever present din
Learning, leaning on love, for and from others
Loving self and forgiving the past and present
To see how we all can reach a point together
In the future—with light and truth resplendent
heart bare
The world will never be the same
From when He lived and died and came
Back, to save us from ourselves
The sparrow knows His love and care
The lily in the field stands aware
So I will also know and stand, heart bare
To let the Savior of the world come near
He lives and loves us without end
From before the world began
Into the eternal realm, unceasing
i forgot
I walked until my heart was weary
With all the cares and hopes we had
Because it took so long I fainted
With sorrow on the road with no sight
Of rest or relief I lay myself down
For just one moment longer than I should
And I forgot for a moment, a mere pause really,
Of why I fought so hard
Of why I stood on my raw and thrashed feet
For so very long
I forgot what it feels like to be loved
Because the love I need has never
Shown its face to me
