covet the world

what are we thinking

to place things above us while we are sinking

floating letters from far off places to reside in our minds

those letters were fake but they hold on to time

everything falls into place in His hands

but we're sitting here making tedious demands

all to end up covered and replaced:

the beautiful purpose for this human race

it is Love which we subtly refuse

while we take what we can get and avoid the real Rescue

We shove off the Truth that keeps us alive

wounds in His hands and blood in His eyes

a Love we need to survive

to make everything else make sense and come Alive

I want Love to make me come Alive.
