[I want pens that spill words of life]
Hope resonates inside -
I stretch and shake this earth suit from my bones
The face that wears strength for the world is bare before you
The one from which power originated
The heart that works to keep me breathing
Beats fast, then slow in your presence
The one who formed it with his hands
In this stillness - we are One
And I am whole for once
There is no fear, no shame, no lies
I am vulnerable and small before you
I am never stronger than when I am with you
Every part of myself pulls together
From all sides and hidden corners of my life
Reassembled in your eyes
I am beautiful
From the fingertips that ache to author
Something of worth about you
To the eyes that long to see you in full
This hope resonates inside -
This fills waking moments and inspires dreams
Despite the burden a day brings
Despite the pain my weakness clings to
You wait, you wait, you wait
Drawing near as I stumble to your side
Tossing off layers of trouble
Until it's just you and me
Me and You, alone
Reborn, reformed, redeemed
by Love
