KEEPS MY HEART AS EASE



I never thought you would find me here,

the day I saw my chance to leave.

For opprotunity is but a glimpse of light,

dimly lit through the cracks of a door.

Well thats what I tell my heart when this mind begins to wonder.

Oh God, still everytime I think of leaving,

her face reappears in my mind.

And I find myself retracting these footprints

where they have long made their mark.

Do I want to experience a life away fromt this place?

YES! But what kind of life would it be if she weren't there?

Clearly, you my Lord of my first desire.

But Lord she does something to me,

that neither heart nor mind can explain.

She is proof my God, that you are a God of miracles.

For you created her.

And yet I plead, tear me away from that very mircale,

which stalls my departure.

Should I be joyous in this irony? For what stalls my departure

is what keeps my heart as ease.

Well while the days seem to grow much longer,

for each minute feels like a year in itself.

I picture myself away from this place,

but never away from that mircale, for she will never leave my mind.
