poem.

it’s  tough wrestling with the idea

that You are here.

and that i just can’t feel your presence.

i want to be awoken to You

everywhere.

“Wake up, O sleeper”

believe me, i’m trying

i need Your help

wake me up.

i’m going to trust Your words

and go to where i should meet you

and wait for you to show up

help me wait for you

because i’m bad at waiting

and if it’s all on me,

it won’t work.

i won’t work.

so please work behind the scenes

even when i can’t tell

so that one day

i’ll meet You

everywhere.

and i’ll walk with You

forever

because You fixed me.
