I am
the only wall you will ever need
Stop hiding
Stop fighting
against the wrongs you have committed
things you wish could remain hidden
Shame is just a mask
Guilt a hidden dagger
stabbing you again and again
never letting you get better
The beauty of grace
is you don't have to be afraid
Mercy new every morning
I've taken your cloak of shame
You can hide behind me
because grace is an ocean and
I've already stopped the storm
When everyone says,
"be perfect"
My outstretched arms say,
"I already am"
When you hide behind a wall
a construct of your own two hands
You limit a grace that is greater
Shut everyone out
box yourself in
It's not about what you can do
It's about what I've done
I'm tearing down your walls
because I'm the only one
you need
grace, walls, perfection, ocean, storm, life, shame, mercy, morning
