The weakness that defines me Confines me to my own skin Binds my limbs tightly Won’t let the light in I breathe toxicity With every indulgent fear I beg to summon bravery I pray to feel You here I am an infant New in everything I am repentant More new than anything I meditate in this new place On a face I don’t understand I ***** through inward space Feebly trying to stand I have been lost for so long Frozen in the grip of ice My shepherd has gone This cold heart must suffice I am an infant New in everything I am repentant More new than anything Remove my swaddling Unfold new grace I hear the heavens calling Let light kiss this face

Lost in Infancy
The weakness that defines me Confines me to my own skin Binds my limbs tightly Won’t let the light in I breathe toxicity With every indulgent fear I beg to summon bravery I pray to feel You here I am an infant New in everything I am repentant More new than anything I meditate in this new place On a face I don’t understand I ***** through inward space Feebly trying to stand I have been lost for so long Frozen in the grip of ice My shepherd has gone This cold heart must suffice I am an infant New in everything I am repentant More new than anything Remove my swaddling Unfold new grace I hear the heavens calling Let light kiss this face
