"Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus." 1 Thess 5:16-18

Gazing out my window
I was surprised and delighted by the vibrant green grass. Right then and there, I wished my handwriting was more flowy... it would have matched my mood.
We make noise and we break
Ow.
My collarbone hurts.
And I'm scared it will break.
We're just breakable.
So many things can crush us.
Or go wrong.
Does it make you quiver to know you have no control?
I can step in the mud when my boots are on
What a relief relief is
Breathe a sigh, a contented sigh
And lips spread into a smile
Despite the rainy, dreary day
These feet have decided to skip
The only thing is
Relief doesn't last long
But maybe this time
Experience will keep this heart steadfast
Hopeful, so hopeful
My rain boots make me feel invincible
Breathe a sigh, a contented sigh
And lips spread into a smile
Despite the rainy, dreary day
These feet have decided to skip
The only thing is
Relief doesn't last long
But maybe this time
Experience will keep this heart steadfast
Hopeful, so hopeful
My rain boots make me feel invincible

Some work in me
No one can give me what I want
I should expect it
I know no one can complete me
No one but you
I can't, I won't, I should look at you
Oh God, grab my face and turn it toward you
Can't explain, can't express, won't today
These feelings, these thoughts, these ridiculous fears
I don't need to
I'm written on your soul
Oh God, grab my face and turn it toward you
~~~~~~~~~~
I can physically feel the effects of the distance between you and I.
But what have I to cling to?
You. Aren't. Here.
I've wanted to see you, to hug you, to talk with you.
So. The choice to desire heaven...
I grasp it.
All I want is you.
I should expect it
I know no one can complete me
No one but you
I can't, I won't, I should look at you
Oh God, grab my face and turn it toward you
Can't explain, can't express, won't today
These feelings, these thoughts, these ridiculous fears
I don't need to
I'm written on your soul
Oh God, grab my face and turn it toward you
~~~~~~~~~~
I can physically feel the effects of the distance between you and I.
But what have I to cling to?
You. Aren't. Here.
I've wanted to see you, to hug you, to talk with you.
So. The choice to desire heaven...
I grasp it.
All I want is you.
