Ocean sprays by the great Pacific
walks and runs and hikes and swims
...
but none of it compares to having peace that's within
heroic efforts and abundant attempts
toward good deeds and faithful opportunity
...
but why won't it alter the man that I am?
~
like I'm floating on my back within this body of mine
just a shell representing the person who bears my name
Dare I have the courage to step off of this edge,
And become traitorous to the identity that they claim?
"How dare I step off of this edge
and become traitorous to my own identity"
I've been under this water for quite some time
and I need to breathe.
sometimes we're all alone, but we're not alone. At our deepest isolation, God draws close to us. This is the only way through it.
Love, hope you all are alright and well
