My body sounds like an ocean Like waves kissing the shore The way my flesh stretches round my bones In an embrace that whispers “till death” Like a lover who chooses herself I have picked you over and over And like the shoreline I Will Never Stop Chasing You
I waited three days In hopes that your love Would resurrect like Jesus did But you're not strong enough To move the boulder Covering your heart. And I'm not strong enough To be Mary and wait for you.
