My head is swarmed with thoughts.

I don't know
I don't know, but I feel as if I must
I don't know you, me, what love is or what life means, but I want to
I don't even know what wanting is
I don't know

It's all too much to fit inside my brain
All I know is that I have faith and what it looks like
You are the only one who knows all the answers and is all the answers
You who are inside of me
It's tough to see you through all this flesh  
I don't know why you don't let me know now
But I'm at peace because you tell me I don't need to and that when I do you'll inform me
You say all I have to do is just be  
Where I am simply being is where I know who you are

And there is coming a day when my skin will transform into transparency
And then I will know  
And then I will know increasingly continually and that is the beauty of it all  
There is no end to who you are or your love for me or life and therefore the depths of it all have no floor, no walls, and no ceiling
I will be free of this box

He was like the most perfect wave I'd ever seen  
Surging towards me with breath-taking strength  
I wanted to run
But not forward or away  
So I just stood there
Like a statue
With the sand beneath my feet
Turning to stone
Watching him come

With fear pushing me back  
And the mystery of his thrilling unpredictability tugging me in  
I was wondering if he could be the wave of my life  
Or one that inflicts upon me thorough and unnecessary pain

I'm still wondering if he is worth the risk 
Yet unless I go I'll always by tortured with wondering if
I am consumed by fascination
In this moment I can't close my eyes
He's so dangerous  
I can't figure out if I know who he is
  
Now I'm finding fire beneath me  
Inspired by the beauty up ahead
I will not grow cold in the grip of fear  
And how could I live the same way ever again  

For one second it's like the toughest fight of my life
And now I'm falling inside  
Light as a feather
I'm a part of something bigger
I didn't even realize I was searching until He found me

— The End —
