Lord you ask me to write
and I laugh in spite of myself
Of my stupidity
and insensibility
I am so naive to think
That I sink
and drink
and relinquish
an idea
For I think
I am so right and god
but I never could
do this without you
Silly me
I tease the depths of integrity
and the roots of honesty
really.
I think I have it worked out
but as the words slip out of my brain
and rain onto this page
I understand
that the words are formulated
by the one who has made me
for He has give me
a gift that has saved me
and through words he has sustained me
spoken to me
and shown me
a love and truth
and I cut loose
all that hinders me
for there is
nothing
nothing
NOTHING
in this whole word
that can separate Him from me
and I thank the one being
that has cared for me
and guided me
and loved me
the supreme Lord
who as breathed my very life into me
silly me
why didn't I see?
