You won’t see me
Martini
Numbed, ever
Spirits
Drowning my demons, never
I walked from you
Champagne-free
Toasting, forever
Mock(ed) Margarita
Proud, untethered
Post-Victim Era
H2O-flasked
Glowed, better
Sweet Jesus-juiced
My senses, together
All the words I haveGod, I see You’ve been meddling in this from the start
Your majestic way
We two called upon You
We petitioned for Your peace
You answered with our miracle, praise!
Then how did his eyes stray?
Must he stroll away?
I still stand before You and my brother here
To confess the universe is wildly unpredictable, but this:
You granted love’s grace to us; and,
I do trust in You
Darkness comes to you as beauty
Evil’s delight…to enthrall
By the time you’ve thought against your sweet surrender
You have progressed to your Fall
Wonder not from whence Salvation
Love, Simplicity It’s Name
Fire-refined and the most Faithful Fascination
At your side while through The flames
I once watched
With gaping jaw
And guilty skin
This One Guy acknowledge humanity
He came alongside the sorrow
Full-on admitted the fire
Reached out His hand nonetheless
Then stepped forth
In Everlasting Love
That I’d have new life
My God!
So I say, Here Am I
where am i, this beautiful place earth
and yet still
a citizen of a better home, cleansed
Today you told me
Don’t leave this moment, but dare
To withstand its fire
Thank you defender
I’ll not fall prey to despair
Nor be Tempest-Tossed
Out
And all over the place
Jesus
What a mess you’ve to clean
Yet there down at My feet
On the ground
Dirtying your white with the bloody, brokenness of my heart
You are
Picking carefully up, dutifully up
Each piece, one after the next
Defending me against the mess
I’ve allowed
Asking me against my better judgement
That I always allow
That I forever leave
My heart
Out
And all over the place
