I wade the waters of my fear
And know why Jesus walked above
I am immobilized except for tears
As terror shoves to fit the glove

The silent dogs that run the fence
Whose presence is felt not heard
To snake fangs that make me winch
Slurs my speech faltering all my word

The angels sit upon the wall
Casting lots on when my time expires
So Adam this is how you fall
From Heaven's grace down to hellacious fires

So dance with me on the graves at sea
On the promises you will never keep
Come wade the waters of my fear
Watch out for stingrays beneath your feet

It was creepy, eerie, so tangible.

You knocked on my bedroom door.
You walked in so slowly.

As you approached me, my heartbeat hastened.
You sat down right in front of me and our eyes met.

Your hand reached out to me and we hugged.
I held you so close.

I dreamt of you last night.
I remember reassuring myself it was real.

Be like a sunflower.
Even when the sun hides, you can still shine.
The sun radiates from within.

DC raw love
From the top of a cliff,
can I buy some time....

As I stare at the world,
I no longer have to climb...

I have reached the peak,
is this my summit....

Will I now have happiness,
as now I plummet....

Into the depths,
of this planet earth...

I now feel,
I must run to the sea...

As I flow with the currents
to the ocean...

To the abyss I must go,
so I will take it slow...

Can I find freedom,
in the bottom of this hole...

From the top to the bottom.....
in the middle between...

What have I learned...
What have I seen...

Is to understand forgiveness,
and to never be mean..

The moral of the storey,
is one to be told...

We all climb to the top,
to only fall in a hole...

Truth be told....
Truth beware...

It's your life,
you can go anywhere...

Sleep well knowing that
things will work out in the end.
Just let it happen.
