• to heart

  Everytime I look around,
  another brother falling down;
  i just try to raise them up,
  tell them i can be like them
  or i can be like Him and
  keep pressing on, despite
  the world; I know the way
  they hold onto Earthly things,
  and all I have to say
  is good luck with that–
  I depend on Him, rise with Him,
  fall with Him, belong with Him,
  live for Him, give to Him
  all the time I can/and more.
  it’s not about who’s written
  this, just who’s taken it to
  heart and lived through eyes of His.

• Why, God?

  Why, God?

  You do not answer
  in the traditional sense–
  Your path shows more
  than words
  or fulfilled questions could.

  i look back and see Your hands
  leading me, gentley, to this line–
  and, yet, i cannot see your hands now
  or in my forethoughts; what, though,
  i do see is Your breath on my skin as
  You work hard on this life i follow for/to You.
