I choose to get lost in the space between your eyes and your smile
because I’m afraid of diving off the board too soon in the oceans above
I’m not the strongest swimmer
and I don’t know how or if I’ll come through the other end
So…
Every now and then
I dare myself to let go
take a dip
with the hope that faith will keep me afloat.
I could get use to this
The more I go I’ll be an expert for sure
And then I think again
get out of the water
you’ve been going in too much
Out I come
And here faith has me wandering
hopping over freckles and creases
to the place where warmth is consistent
or at least I’m hoping for it to be
Where sunshine looks like the letter c on it’s back
and sounds like the scales on a bass guitar
I could listen on endlessly
I’m finding balance
Your oceans are unpacking my vulnerability day by day
Your sunshine giving me just enough heat
and yet it knows when to allow winds of encouragement to blow me over
This is when I know I can be silent and let you lead me.
You were made to rule
For the waters are many
And the sun is pivotal
God knows what He’s doing.
