See You See Me

Forgive me,
I should know better.
I can't see
through this weather.
I was born blind,
into these letters
you know this
you put me together.
We were sitting, talking with everything at stake,
but when we started walking, it seems you stepped away
Ever so often, fear conquers faith,
we could put this in a coffin, if we weren't so afraid.
Oh mercy
in fine feathers
you've kept me
through each endeavor
I was born blind
into these letters
now I see
clearer than ever.
Your sweet peace pierces my soul
and my angst you've suddenly stolen
My eyes still stuck in my skull
but I see you see me
I see you see me through.
We were sitting, talking of everything at stake,
But when started walking, I clearly stepped away.
Ever so often fear conquers faith,
we could put this in a coffin if we weren't so afraid.

Machines

Don't believe in false foundations,
they do nothing for your form.
They plant the seeds of self contemplation
and they feed upon your storm.
You form dependencies on these sensations,
and you allocate them more,
Until you finally find the realization,
that this is not your core.
Piece by piece
they're trying to make machines
out of you.
They feast
on your need to believe
in something bigger than you.
You can spend your time sinking in shallow waters,
or float in the dead sea.
Please
teach us to leave
our vanity.
You can spend your time sinking in shallow waters,
or float in the dead sea.
Psalms 119:36-37
Incline my heart to Your testimonies
And not to dishonest gain.
Turn away my eyes from looking at vanity,
And revive me in Your ways.

In light of day,
Sun shines so bright,
Warm blood runs through my veins,
As sun rays rest in my eyes.
In younger days,
Times weren't so bright,
Now I'm running from my haze,
Sometimes light can make things right.
When the clouds come,
To water the ground,
Plants begin growing.
Some wonder when,
Their lives will end,
I can't wait for mine to begin,
When you make me whole again.
When the clouds come,
To water the ground,
Plants begin growing.
With the sun, hope is found,
In soft, subtle ground,
Seeds begin sowing.
While you were hesitating,
In your mind, excavating,
All the while, initiating,
these new seeds into bloom.
1 Peter 5:10
And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.
